Galaxy S6 Appreciation

[Cajun_Fan]

What did you pay in addition? While it doesn't make you whole, the possible benefits may outweigh the incremental amount.

I think the payments are $33 to $34 a month. I just made the first one on the latest bill, so I still have over $750 left. I think the cost for the 64 GB edge was $799. I'll have to log in and find out.

I believe that a new phone is included so include that in your decision.

While it may be wishful thinking, if I were a VZW customer, I would take this opportunity to bolt to a GSM carrier as it might be even longer for VZW to convert. I know signal strength might be a short term issue but, for Petes sake, TMO is covering off the ETF.

How do you know what you would do if you were a verizon customer when you have never been one?

OK killer battery, light use but still damn this is amazing. Had an issue for a while, but disabling location and removing Google fit fixed all. Could hit 2 days on light use. Also note this wasn't fully charged, running since 95% battery charge.

Totally awesome, dude. Who has six hours for non-stop heavy usage? Not most people. Point is that great battery life is possible with this device given it's hardware and software optimization which is hopefully going to continue to get better making this device future resistant should one decide to hold on to it for a while. Can't wait for 5.1.1.

So the tweaks really worked, I'm glad you listened, now you see the results, for some that's crippling the device, for you and a lot of us it's just not leaving everything on by default when we don't really need them and by doing that, enjoying longer battery life and appreciating even more this great phone.

And that even with Facebook at the top of your list, that normally means that is running in the background a lot and keeping awake the phone, if you are not using Facebook that much for it to be at the top of the list, just click on it and Force Stop it, something has changed with that app since latest update as I have seen similar behavior with mine, even when I barely use it.

If it doesn't affect the quality, don't take it out if you are fine with it. If you're like me, I am always a little pumped opening the box on a new device that little details escape me. I like removing all the plastic. To me, it's like leaving a tag on a new shirt. It doesn't affect the how the shirt fits or looks.

Thanks.. I really like this phone sg6 could not believe that samsung will make this kind of hardware..last time I had samsung phone was samsung galaxy young and it's all plastic..lol.. I love everything in this phone .. camera, fingerprint scanner , screen , call quality and bonus home button that is a little bit loose. .lol.. seriously I like the way my home button makes clicking sound when I press it..

I like the screen and camera. Camera is probably the best hardware feature of the phone, with the screen second.

I like that the fingerprint scanner is pretty accurate and fast. It's a nice unlock method. The best software feature of the phone to me is the double tap home button to open the camera. Easy, makes sense and works well.

Agreed.

I got it off the lense but can't get it off the flash. It doesn't look like one is on it and I tried to remove as if one was there but nothing came off.

It's not easy to remove the LED flash plastic film. You have to just run your fingernail around the edges.

You would be surprised at just how many of the working poor only have a cell phone as their only online device. They use it for web, YouTube, even TV with chrome cast.

While I do feel for the plight of that segment of the population, i was making reference to those who have posted about significant screen on time in this forum, I pay more than my fair share in taxes so that they are able to have the devices without any skin in the game. If they are spending it on Chromecast which is not a necessity, they should be making sure there kids have food and clothes to wear to school instead.

Reviving this thread as its needed, no one comes here to discuss why they love their S6.

After many months since launch, I am still loving this device. Even with having to get it swapped due to camera sensor problems, my overall experience has been fantastic. Maybe I got lucky or maybe I just don't pay attention to every flaw but I love this device and wouldnt change it for any other.

I've tested other phones and I still think the regular S6 feels best in hand and it the perfect screen size. This is the first phone in many years that I didn't get bored of within 2 months of owning it.
