This is the Samsung Galaxy S6 – Overclockers

Curved edge
 

The rumors about the phone proved largely true. The Samsung Galaxy S6 comes in 2 versions, a ‘normal’ and one with ‘Edge’. This means that the screen as it were, on both edges is folded. We saw that earlier in the Galaxy Note 4, which came in a similar variant. That was a taste for the real consumer phone that is the S6.

Globe screen

 With curved edges that seems like the screen which is more convex. That looks very chic and the phone displays an expensive look, but the curved edge also has a practical purpose.

Quick

 So you can at the edge fix certain actions. That may be one of your contacts, or another shortcut where you often want to access.



Solid housing

The curved edges are not the only change in the appearance that Samsung implemented. The housing of the device is (finally) made of metal, which gives it some firmer. That’s a lot better than the somewhat cheap feeling aluminum S5.

Gorilla Glass 4

 The device is also sturdy by the addition of Gorilla Glass 4, the latest version of the strong glass which is not only scratch resistant, but also more resistant to attack.



Wireless Charging

Another addition to the phone is that you can charge it wirelessly. That is not a very new concept, also gives Samsung, but unique is that you do not need extra accessories like cases in the S6. You can charge your phone anywhere where supported wireless charging. At the moment, that’s not a lot of places, but Samsung hopes to set a new standard.

Fast charging

 Not only the S6 wireless charging, but charging is additionally rapidly. Samsung says “the best battery industry ‘to have made, and has built a new way to quickly recharge. This ‘fast charging’ causes according to the company that the phone in 10 minutes enough can charge you again to 4 hours can move forward.



Tocco finally simplified

One of the main obstacles to the Galaxy devices is the software skin that Samsung itself puts Android on it. The so-called Samsung’s unique TouchWiz was look , but in practice made the phones often slow and it was not intuitive. It is therefore striking that Samsung TouchWiz gives a big makeover to the S6.

Tighter

 Who make over is’ em mainly in simplification. The menus are all a bit clearer, a lot of unnecessary options are omitted, and the whole was all a bit tighter to look – in line with Android Lollipop, the operating system where the S6 course runs on

Very good. Camera

One of the focal points of the phone is the new camera. Which is extremely good, according to Samsung, especially in areas with low light. The camera has 5 megapixels, the rear camera has ‘only’ 16 (there was speculation that it would be 20 megapixels). Those ‘few’ megapixels, however more than offset by the F1.9 aperture on the camera, which makes him especially at night very well.

New features

 The camera gets some additional useful features such as Real-Time HDR, and “object tracking that a moving object is followed by the camera.

The big disadvantage is that the camera, as with the iPhone 6, very protrudes from the model. That makes him very vulnerable to damage, especially if you put the phone on the table

& gt;.

 



Samsung Pay

A unique addition Pay Samsung, Samsung’s answer to Apple and Google Pay Wallet. Unlike those competitors must Samsung Pay “everywhere” work. Google Pay Wallet and Apple should be supported by retailers, and must support NFC payment terminal. That is not necessary at Samsung Pay.

Magnetic strips

 Samsung Pay needs to work on ‘any ATM where you can also pay by credit or debit card’ – practically every store so. The phone works for it with a special technique that is coupled to the magnetic stripe reader of the terminal. Unfortunately, we are in the Netherlands now biting switched from magnetic strips to chips, but it will anyway take a while for the service to the Netherlands.



Availability

The Samsung Galaxy S6 comes from 10 April AVAILABLE Netherlands. The device will be available in three variants (32GB, 64GB, and 128GB), from 699 euros. Galaxy Edge comes in the same variations, but the basic costs 849 euros.
