*** The Official Samsung Galaxy S6/Edge Thread ***

[Merlin5]

How much would an alternative camera which would surpass the S6 roughly cost?

Don't know, but I just posted some of my low light and macro S6 pics in a photography thread on another forum I go to. A thread where people are posting very professional DSLR photos. The reaction was more than I expected (not that my photography is anything special, but the camera is) including "Jesus, they're from a phone? The quality is quite literally amazing." from a guy who owns a Hassleblad Just proves that this phone is worth the price of admission for the camera alone. Here's my low light pics.

They are stunning indeed and given the S6 can be had for £400 it does seem quite a bargain for results it produces

 

[Warp279]

It does well in the low light

^sold mine.
Accidental touches on the edges.. makes it impractical.
Only lost about £30, the problem now is deciding which device to get next

Where is the best (Cheapest) place to get the S6 sim free and unlocked? Tesco & CPW both seem to want about £480, wasn't sure if it could be found any cheaper?

Currys outlet on ebay have some petty good/silly prices on the s6 and edge, check the completed listings out, think a s6 with 128gb went for £310 ish last week.

Went looking at them today, CPW didn't have any sim free in stock aside form in Blue, which looked vile in person, EE wanted me to take out a 30 day rolling contract with the phone and pay £510 and Tesco didn't have any in stock, didn't help when I showed the gf the Edge+ and she said I should get that, now do want!

Shoot me..

Noticed Argos are doing the standard S6 32Gb for £399, white/black/gold.

 

[GreenMint]

That'll do me, reserved a Black 32GB to collect in the morning!

Thanks so much EmmaRoyd!

Evening all,

Ive just upgraded to an Edge+ (Comming from a S5)

Battrey usage is (after 1st Charge - Currently have Power Save on)

Does anyone know of "must Have" apps?

Does anyone any have hints and tips to save/conserve the battery?

 

[EmmaRoyd]

You're welcome, wish Argos did the lighter blue colour as I'd order one too.

They do at handtec, albeit a little bit more expensive! I got it from there a few months back.

 

[EmmaRoyd]

Thank you, I'll take a look.

 

[Mobius 1]

No worries. It's a bit of a stunner in the flesh. Definitely the best colour!

 

[GreenMint]

Saw the blue in the flesh today, looked so metallic and overly mirrored, hated it! If it had been a soft blue like Apple did on the 5C I would have been all over it!

I've been asking Vodafone about this for a while and at the moment it only supports the I phone. It's already available to those on EE and O2. I'll be glad get off Vodafone regardless, as for me it will be too little too late.

 

[dbmzk1]

I never use it on EE anyway. For me I've yet to find somewhere with WiFi but not enough network signal for a call.

 

[GreenMint]

Picked up my S6 today, looks nice & shiny...

However...

Not been well this weekend, not been thinking 100% straight...didn't get/order a new SIM and my S4 is Micro, S6 is Nano, guess its a few more days with no signal for me!

 

[Caged]

Get stanley out

 

[GreenMint]

The way I'm feeling tonight, it'd be a casualty visit! I'll swing by the EE store after work tomorrow and explain my dumbassery!
