The Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge

Hello, and welcome back to another installment of....

we are so glad you've returned!...

you wont be disappointed!

Today we are reporting the latest talk of the town,

The Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge 

On March 1st Samsung held their bi-yearly announcement or press conference at Mobile World Congress Barcelona, Spain. and with those announcements, comes the quelling of rumors and speculation that has had the Internet in an uproar since the release of the Galaxy Note Edge Experiment. Now we have the S6 in all of its highly anticipated glory..

Lets start with the specs of both devices..

First the Samsung Galaxy S6 (shown below)

The S6 is equipped with...

• 5.1 Quad HD Super AMOLED display pushing 577 ppi (2560x1440 resolution)
• Quad 2.1Ghz + 1.5 Ghz, Octacore Processor
• Android 5.0 Lollipop (with TouchWiz on top of course)
• 16mp Camera with Optical Image Stabilization, Paired with a 5.0mp front facing camera (with quick launch.
• Ultra Power Saving Mode
•  Download Booster
• Samsung Pay
• "Theme" Store
• Private Mode
• 3GB Ram, 2550 mAh battery
• Wireless Charging (4 hours of battery life on 10 minutes of charging time)
• Improved, Swipe-less, Fingerprint Scanner, with functionality close to that of Touch ID

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

-equipped with all of the above listed features plus...

• Slightly Larger 2600mAh battery
• Dual Edge Display (for notifications and other application functions)

Speaking of dual edges, lets discuss the display of the S6 Edge. this new display curves around the sides of the device, dramatically reducing the left and right bezels. and providing unique viewing angles along with a more immersive experience. As seen below.

While the S6 will definitely be considered a flagship with all of its specs (on paper), its more than obvious that the Galaxy S6 Edge will definitely be the company's main focus.

 Both devices will feature some on Samsung's more popular features, such as multi -screen app/web browsing , and app bubbles/contact favorites. but the Galaxy S6 Edge display alone is simply, attractive. Something more that the Edge and S6 have added is a highly reflective rear glass, that just makes people marvel when they lay eyes on it!

The material on this device alone makes it more than a worthwhile purchase.

These devices have an availability set for the month of April, specifically the 10 day of the month.

Naturally deals and prices may vary depending on what carrier you select, but we are told that such prices should be close to if not uniform for this device, seeing that it will be available through all major carriers, including some prepaid carriers...

We hope to get our hands on a test model in the near future, to do a comparison of features.

stay tuned for that..

In any event, these have been your technological announcements for Thursday March 5th, 2015

please govern yourselves accordingly..

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
please govern yourselves accordingly..

and remember... you heard it here first!
