It’s almost a week since the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge were made official, and with a release coming in April there’s huge anticipation for these two smartphones. We’ve already given some comparisons of the Galaxy S6 vs. phones such as the Nexus 6, Galaxy Note 4 and HTC One M9, and now it’s time to concentrate on Samsung’s main rival and the iPhone 6. Today we’re considering the Samsung Galaxy S6 vs. iPhone 6 in a specs and features rundown that will give you a clear idea of how they compare.
One of the biggest changes with the Galaxy flagship this year is the new premium metal and glass design, although this does mean a few drawbacks so not everybody has been happy. However, it has been widely praised by tech experts so far and many potential buyers cannot wait to get their hands on it. Also the Galaxy S6 Edge is a variant with dual curved edges offering something a little different on top.
Meanwhile Apple’s iPhone 6 was also a big departure for the company this year as it featured a notably larger display than previous iPhones, so both companies have made some significant changes. If you much prefer the Android platform to Apple’s iOS platform then perhaps your decision is already clear to you. However, if you are open to either operating system then you may be trying to choose between them.
Beneath this article we’ve embedded a YouTube video from SuperSaf TV that offers a methodical look at the specs, features and more of both the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge against the iPhone 6, with some useful insight. The video begins with discussing the size differences of the phones and then moves on to aspects such as the display resolutions, designs and builds, and then internals such as processor and storage.
The comparison then takes the cameras and their capabilities into account before moving on to features of the phones such as fingerprint sensors and payment systems. Battery life is also mentioned and then US and UK pricing and availability and some pointers about which may be the best choice for you. The video below offers a really useful rundown of how these devices compare, and it will be interesting to see more comparisons once the Galaxy S6 is in the hands of reviewers.
