On March 1 in Barcelona, Samsung announced the release of Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge infront of more than 5,500 buyers and media executives at the annual Samsung Galaxy `Unpacked` 2015. This is the largest crowd since the start of the event.
Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge unveiled its upgraded usability and extended hands-on features along with edgy design. One can now customize important menus to show directly on home screen, turn the menu icons to a text, and show search window when needed. Overall Samsung has slimmed down on excessive features and focus on necessities to provide better user experience.
Samsung also surprised us by resetting their material standards. Additional to the three basic colors (White pearl, Black Sapphire, Gold Platinum) multi-layer nano coated colors were also adapted in Blue Topaz color for S6 and Green Emerald for S6 Edge. Balance between cool metal look and glossy texture adds softer and deeper finish.
As much as the aesthetic changes, Samsung continues to build up on hardware improvements. 16-megapixel paired with an F1.9 lens camera allows capturing better light. Also, talk about battery life. 10 min wire-less charge lasts for 4 hours. Other powerful technologies such as Mobile secure platform `Knox`, Fingerprint scanner, mobile payment Service `Samsung pay` compatible with both Near Field Communication(NFC) and Magnetic Secure Transmission(MST) are integrated to solidify the best performance.
It doesn`t end here. Gear VR innovator Edition for Galaxy S6 is topped with Quad HD Super AMOLED touch screen to enjoy 360 degrees 3D contents with utmost clarity. With no additional power supply, one can also fully watch augmented reality contents.
Samsung Electronics President JK Shin, says "The all new Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge have set the next standard for smartphone market. By listening to our consumers, we are committed to provide better living with upcoming technology and new ideas."
