For a phone that didn't review too well and sort of lacked hype compared to iPhone, its still hard to find. Trying to get Edge thru hardware upgrade but cant find any dealers that have it in stock. Been told the wait can be upwards to 3/weeks.

just picked it up today, love it. The front-facing camera on the S6 blows my old nexus main camera away

Got the folio case + wireless charger -- I really like how the folio gives you a smaller functional screen. Peel smart remote app is excellent -- way better range than regular remote controls, snappier, and has an integrated channel guide

Does anybody know where I can an unlocked version of S6?

Nope, Rogers finally agreed to give me a decent credit for an upgrade so that was nice.

Yeah .. I didn't realize how much prices have gone up. Keeping my 6 gigs of data for as long as I can Kappa Kappa Kappa

Why are craigslist prices higher than retail+tax..? Are Samsung stores and corporate stores sold out?

terkan 04-14-2015 01:39 PM

prolly coz no places will sell you one outright unless you preordered from one of the carrier and have it shipped

I had some time to kill today and went and looked at the S6, the curved screen is awesome. When the contract on my S4 is closer to the end I am going to have to make a tough choice between the S6 or the BB classic. I really like the keyboard on the BB but not sure if I am ready to give up all the things the Galaxy has for it.

Silly Rogers forgot to put my office suite # on the shipment. I have a mix of 8 S6 and S6 Edge sitting at UPS warehouse.

Fuck them.
I found a place Bell authorized dealer selling S6 for $700 and S6 Edge for $750 TAX IN. I'm getting the Edge tomorrow. PM me if anyone is looking for one.

guurl 04-15-2015 12:12 AM

looks like i will be upgrading it for $250 with my current max plan through fido. went to the samsung store today to play around with the s6 and the front camera got me hooked. i want one ASAP!! reserved. first in line at my store hopefully i get it really soon

!MiKrofT 04-16-2015 11:21 PM

Using the Edge now. Its not a very comfortable phone to use. Looks very nice though. The ergonomics of the regular s6 seem better. Will decide after using it for a week if I'll switch or not.

guurl 04-17-2015 03:06 AM

loving the s6. camera is amazing =)

Eatman 04-18-2015 12:33 AM

So what cases are you guys using atm or are planning on picking up?

Verdasco 04-18-2015 02:17 PM

anyone give review of the s6 that are previous s5 owners???

snapchat and camera is fucking garbage on the s5 lol. cant focus for shit when zoomed in.

!MiKrofT 04-18-2015 07:30 PM

I'm using a Spigen Ultra Hybid at the moment with the Edge.

Only had the s6 for a couple of days. But so far, the colors seem more vibrant. Camera is noticeabley better, photos are more crisp. Phone navigation is pretty smooth, but I wouldn't say that much better than the s5. Overall, it's a good phone. But, if I had to pay full retail, I wouldn't upgrade from s5 to s6...

pm'd. please get back to me. i'd like to get the phone before the store closes today.


edit: so i've been calling local bell dealers to see if i could buy a phone outright. they've been flat out denying me, even the bell authorized dealer in guildford mall. what a bunch of stank cunts.. no love for an existing customer who wants to buy the phone outright.

!MiKrofT 04-19-2015 03:52 PM

Did everyone that preordered get their free wireless charger? It's a Samsung QI branded charger but doesn't come with microUSB cable or the AC adapter.

If the store he's talking about is in Richmond then I'm sure it is Mobile DNA @ Landsowne mall. They are a Bell dealer and Rik@Mobile Dna is a great guy to deal with.

Loving the s6, coming from the i6... the screen is just hhhhhhhnggggg
