This thing is like a giant Galaxy S6 or even a S6 Edge. It’s not a bad thing because the S6 was very well spec’d and had a very nice all glass and metallic redesign. So the Note 5 borrowing every element right down to the processor, camera module, design..…

Part 3 See also: Part 1 for Display and Design and Part 2 for Camera Software and features +++++ Samsung further simplifies Touchwiz, taking it one step closer to Google stock experience. The main advantage of this is that the skin no longer feels like a resource hog (but whether…

Part 2 Camera +++++ The camera quality is excellent overall. At first glance the photo quality seemed extremely similar to that of the S5 and the Note 4 – which is a good thing because the quality on those last gen devices were really quite excellent. In fact, the photos…

Part 1 Part 2 is here! Time to take a look at the S6 Edge’s camera. So everybody’s been worried about or cheering on Sammy’s dip in smartphone sales in the past year. The S5 didn’t do too well- it was a spec update and with more features crammed in without thought.…

How is a budget smartphone defined? Obviously price is going to be the primary factor but often, with it also comes a plethora of crappy hardware components (specs somehow manages to look good on paper, marketing), tacky build quality, poorly maintained OS and non-satisfactory user experience- generally speaking: a total package…
