Samsung Galaxy S6 : Rumors and Speculation

Welcome back to another installment of.....

we are glad you joined us today!

let's get right to it then...

with the announcement and launch, of one of the most highly anticipated smart phones, on the horizon,  rumors and speculation are at an all-time high. with that being said (or typed rather lol). TechExpo' aims to bring you the most relevant and accurate information as it applies to this device.

The Samsung Galaxy S6

just as every new variant of the galaxy s series, there are promises made for an improved camera, faster operating system, and battery life/power saving functionality. This seasons model does not disappoint in these areas, However, Samsung is hinting that one of the main features of this new device is its wireless charging capabilities.

 Currently, other manufacturers have managed to have some smart phones to charge up to, if not more than, 50% in less or around 30 minutes.

And.....with that kind of foundation already set, it would be foolish for Samsung to produce the same standard for wireless charging for the S6, so that usually means that there must be some awesome tech that blows the competition out of the water, completely. or at least for a few months.

More rumors include a fingerprint scanner that is Paypal certified, allowing the door to be open for "Samsung Pay" (allegedly) . Yes that's right, Samsung is taking a stab at the mobile payment industry, while Apple is in this moment of getting their bearings. Check and mate...nicely played.

and of course with this device running touchwiz (over android 5.0) you can expect to see most of the features that were popular in the Galaxy S5 and Note 4/Edge, minus the stylus of course.

 and speaking of edge....

the most interesting and equally the most talked about rumor for this device is its design.

Galaxy S6 (below, possible design)


 Galaxy S6 Edge (below possible design)


Galaxy S6 Edge (possible additional curve)


cryptic, yes...we know.

that's how Samsung operates


Samsung conducted an experiment with the release of the Galaxy Note Edge to see if curved displays could be a permanent fixture in the future designs of their devices, the results (as you can imagine) were mostly inconclusive due to a limited production and availability, but it did amass that there was some interest from customers and developers for different kind of display.

So there could possibly be, two versions of the Galaxy S6, the regular and..the Galaxy S6 Edge, sporting 3 curved edges (allegedly).

so it is apparent that Samsung is not afraid push the envelope, nor are they ashamed of innovation on any level.

and who cant appreciate someone willing to challenge the "norm".

we expect this device to be announced officially March 1st with an anticipated availability for the end of this years 1st quarter (possibly end of march/ beginning of April, mid April at the latest)

In Any Event....

These have been your technological announcements for Tuesday February 17th, 2015
