Is it still worth buying?

[Joachim Larsen]

Hey i just wanted to hear if you think its still worth buying, i can get it for around 300 dollars and normally its 600 dollars. Right now I got the lg g3 and its still working okay, i just got in 37291 the antutu bechmark and 759 single core 2049 in the multi core in geekbench 3.

Not a bad phone for that price. It's still worth getting if you're getting a good price deal. But the S7 should be around the corner (spring, most likely), so you might see this price drop to even less.

Where can you get one for $300? I just picked one up for $500.

The one i can get is from someone i know its still unused and dont think the store prices is gonna drop to below that, the s5 is still a little over 400 dollars here. So would you guys buy it again with those conditions?

I think it's worth the $500 I paid. I'm coming from a 2014 Moto X. I tried the Nexus 5x, but it's not worth the $429 I paid so it went back. (5x is selling for $350 this weekend. More appropriate price).

Camera, screen and device design on the S6 are 2nd to none. I also like the little features. IR Blaster, wireless charging, quick charge, heart rate monitor, fingerprint scanner. These things aren't must haves for me, but they do help justify the price and flagship status.

Touch Wiz is a non-issue. I'm finding I actually like it. Should I tire of it I'll go to old reliable Nova Launcher. Battery life is not stellar, but it gets me through the day. It's an improvement over my Moto X and I have a QC battery pack and other QC accessories.

For $300 it's a steal.

I picked one up for $76 over the weekend. Only 32gb but honestly the best value purchase I've ever made for an off contract phone. Brand new by the way.

Thanks i think im gonna get it i also really like the features like IR blaster which uses a lot on my g3 and looking forward to getting a fingerprint scanner never had a phone with one before.

I have heard that using fast charging and quick charge is bad for the battery? and with a non removable battery i am a little nervous about that. Especially if the battery life isn't great from the beginning.

Just bought it for 227 dollars (always bargain) but its a bit more for me in my currency since the dollar is so high right now, but hopes it lives up to the expectations

 

[Joachim Larsen]

So now that i have bought it do you have any good ideas about how i can transfer things like photos, contacts etc. from my lg g3 to this one?

My wife and I have had the S4's for almost two years. I couldn't pass up the deal I got yesterday. 2 64gig s6's for $.99 each! Yes that is under a $1 on each one. Score!

You should be able to use SmartSwitch. I'd also back up anything important on your G3 in advance.

You can download the Samsung smart switch app and transfer your stuff

Just exchanged my iPhone 6 for galaxy S6 in black. Condition is not too good but my iPhone was rough also. Let's hope I made the right choice.

Thanks smart switch worked great, and yeah lets hope it is

Same exact situation as my girlfriend. Going from s4 to s6 I bought her for Christmas. Hope she likes it.
