Samsung finally took the wraps off of its next-generation flagship smartphones on Sunday during the company’s big Mobile World Congress press conference in Barcelona, Spain. The Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge represent a complete reimagining of Samsung’s smartphone lineup, and in our hands-on previews of the Galaxy S6 and of the Galaxy S6 edge, we have had almost nothing but good things to say about them.
Of course, that doesn’t mean everyone is completely happy with Samsung’s new flagship phones. More →
Sunday was easily one of the biggest days of 2015 for smartphone fans around the world, who watched along as three of the most impressive phones that have ever been created were unveiled at the annual Mobile World Congress trade show. HTC was up first, and the company showed off its next-generation HTC One M9 flagship phone, a sleek and elegant handset that continues HTC’s long tradition of class leading design. Then Samsung’s event kicked off, and the company unveiled its stunning new Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge smartphones.
Now that all three of these great new Android phones are official, it’s time to run through a quick comparison and find out how they stack up against each other. More →
Ahead of Sunday’s huge Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge unveiling at the annual Mobile World Congress trade show in Spain, there was a lot of chatter focused on similarities between the Galaxy S6 we saw in leaks and Apple’s iPhone 6. Many people suggested that Samsung was getting ready to copy the iPhone once again with its new flagship phones — in some ways of course, that would be a good thing — and leaked images of handset prototypes certainly made it appear as though that would be the case.
Now that the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge are official and we have spent some time with both new models, it’s time to determine once and for all whether or not Samsung’s latest and greatest is the blatant iPhone ripoff many Apple fans have said it is. More →
The annual Mobile World Congress trade show didn’t officially start until today, but there is no question that Samsung stole the show on Sunday. The company’s new Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge smartphones represent a bold new era at Samsung, one where the company is finally willing to build a smartphone out of premium materials that better compliment its cutting-edge specs.
Among the improvements in Samsung’s new flagship phones is an impressive new camera that could be the best smartphone camera in the world when it launches. And now, we have our first official samples of photos captured with the Galaxy S6’s camera. More →
Despite all the leaks and rumors leading up to Sunday’s unveiling of the new Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, there didn’t seem to be quite as much hype as there has been in previous years. Perhaps the taste of letdown from 2014’s Galaxy S5 was still fresh in gadget fans’ mouths, but people just didn’t seem as interested as they were in the past.
Once people got an official look at Samsung’s next-generation flagship phones, however, all that changed. More →
If you liked any of the recent mid-range metal Galaxy phones that Samsung released, you’re totally going to love the brand new Galaxy S6 flagships. Both the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge pack amazing hardware, and come with a brand new kind of design, one that shows Samsung is actually capable of creating well-built devices for a change, even if that means still having to cheat off Apple’s iPhone.
Of them, the Galaxy S6 edge is by far the better version, just as some carrier execs told reporters before the show, even though Samsung has not really explained why we need a dual-edge curved display in a smartphone.
Samsung just unveiled its two next-generation flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, and tech fans will spend most of the day reading the same thing over and over again: These are the best Samsung phones ever — nay, the best Android phones ever.
Here’s the thing, it’s not hyperbole. The South Korean giant that has become known for stellar flagship handsets that would be close to perfect if not for their annoying bloatware and cheap feeling plastic housings… just unveiled a pair of flagship handsets with barely any bloatware and no plastic to be found.
They are both truly fantastic smartphones. More →
What a difference a year can make. 2014’s Galaxy S5 was, to put it plainly, an utter disappointment. It wasn’t a bad phone by any stretch of the imagination, but it was hardly the exciting new Galaxy smartphone consumers were hoping for. Samsung’s Galaxy S5 was the definition of an iterative update, and it was uninspired and boring compared to the gorgeous HTC One M8 and other flagship phones like the second-generation Moto X.
With the Galaxy S6, Samsung made up for everything that was wrong with the S5… and then some. More →
Not that they were much of a secret leading up to today’s event, but Samsung’s Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge are now official. Samsung is currently in the process of unveiling them in Barcelona, Spain during its big MWC 2015 press conference, and you’re going to be reading a whole lot about these two phones in the coming weeks and months.
Why? Because the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge are far and away the best smartphones Samsung has ever made. More →

One down, one to go! There’s a whole lot going on today ahead of the official kickoff of Mobile World Congress 2015, but there are clearly two main highlights that are generating the most buzz. The show actually doesn’t open until tomorrow, though many companies are making their announcements today in an effort to get a jump on things.
