Samsung S6
Samsung has repeated enough: he started from scratch to design its next generation Galaxy S, playing break after the GS4 and GS5 wanted as big developments Galaxy S3. With the Galaxy S6, the Korean exchange its tune on several key points, some of which may not appeal to everyone.

PRESENTATION
Can we get out of his hat a mobile high-kneaded range of qualities so that it compensates for some strange losses compared to the previous generation? Samsung can, clearly, the Galaxy S6.
The firm Seoul has decided, with its new GS6, to hunt Apple and its iPhone on his land and with the weapons of the latter. Goodbye to the possibility of extending the storage memory via the addition of a microSD card and hello to the declination in various capacities (32, 64 and 128 GB) and price positioning cloned Cupertino; aluminum and glass substitute for plastic; the seal is discarded. Some will say that the Korean brand is totally down on many of the advantages it to stand out publicly brandished Apple products. The bet is risky and Samsung can and will likely alienate some of its fans of the first or second last time with such a position.

A diversion to turn this technical multifaceted, Samsung offers a Super AMOLED 5.1 inch (12.9 cm diagonal), an identical tile size to the GS5, but for added definition, since ' here WQHD display 2560 x 1440 px, against the Full HD 1920 x 1080 px on the previous generation. Under the slab, there is a mobile chip Samsung Exynos 7 Octa 7420, an octal-core SoC that did sink a little ink when its creator decided almost at the last moment to favor, instead of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 which seemed not to meet the Korean requirements of the moment. Added to this is a RAM 3GB, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi a / b / g / n / ac MIMO, a fingerprint sensor revised and corrected and a camera with 16MP sensor optical stabilization (UHD video recording to the front and 5MP sensor).
To animate the GS6, there is Android 5.0 Lollipop, but Samsung requires is his house TouchWiz interface that covers everything, announced in a more fluid and simple version.
The different versions of the Samsung Galaxy S6 smartphone are marketed to the indicative prices of 709 euros, € 799 and € 899 respectively in 32, 64 and 128 GB of internal storage.
ERGONOMICS AND DESIGN 4/5
The change is this now for the Galaxy S. Plastic is thanked for his loyal service and the shift started on the Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Alpha and Galaxy 5 takes on its full extent. At roughly exacerbated use it now made of aluminum on the above-named products, Samsung also adds on the Galaxy S6 a good dose of reinforced glass.

So here we have a smartphone dressed two sides glass that is welded strapping aluminum. Undeniably, the GS6 off a top product end feel and finishes are serious. Concerning the "inspirations" Samsung for its design, we can blame the firm to be a little too went ogle the lower tranches of the latest Apple iPhone or beveling of the side edges of aluminum Sony Xperia Z.

The terminal is available in several colors and off white bath which was ours for the full test, all other models reveal a small inconvenience: the back is a real collector of fingerprints, as rarely found.

Another point on the back: the photo sensor easily passes. Although the hand feeling is not necessarily very nice, do not mind if in a pocket and placed on a flat surface the mobile may not inevitably be flat, it nevertheless retains a certain balance.

The grip is of excellent craftsmanship. The GS6 firmly in the Catch and its edges and sliced never attack the hand of the wearer. Note that this 2015 edition of the Galaxy S loses slightly in width, but gaining a bit long compared to GS5.

A few words about the fingerprint sensor, always integrated into the central physical button on the front panel and operates a revolution by not imposing more drag on it, but simply put your finger, like the iPhone or the back sensor Ascend Mate 7 Huawei. If the registration of a mark often proves a difficult time (read faults, repeatedly), its operation is quite simply faster than Apple. Fast indispensable.

As for the heating device, it is still measured around 36/38 ° when the mobile is stressed, but it is a concentrated heat, back, on the left of the photo sensor. This does not hinder the handling or video game, and the cooling section is very fast.
SCREEN 5/5
Readability, color rendering, reactivity (35 ms of delay touch), general equilibrium, as many points on the display when the Galaxy S6 combines the superlative. Who says AMOLED panel, said almost infinite contrast, deep black, but sometimes a little crazy colors. For this, Samsung outperformed qu'apprivoiser a little more this technology, it has tamed and offers color fidelity foolproof, here equal to what offers the excellent iPhone 6 Plus (Delta E 1.9 ). Viewing angles are optimal and maximum brightness of 360 cd / m2 (in manual;! Over 600 cd / m2 by car) supports all well in all circumstances, both indoors and outdoors. And with a pixel density of 576 dots per inch, do not worry for reading comfort.
Only points on which Samsung can still really improve visibly: a somewhat more vigorous white (the white iPhone offer a near perfect), less broken by the display modes and the total disappearance of the color effects menu (blue , yellowish) on the limit angles of vision of the slab. This last point is not actually visible in use, we must look at the screen at certain angles a bit wider, even extreme, but the perfection of the display requires total control of rendering these capricious AMOLED panels.
We invite you to read our detailed account of the quality of the Galaxy S6 display to better understand why Samsung has delivered to date, the best mobile display market.
INTERFACE AND NAVIGATION 5/5
More fluid in its graphic approach, sleeker and a bit less flashy than previous versions, the new TouchWiz Android Lollipop dressed that wants to be more pragmatic. Ancillary functions, often useless and Samsung have made in many were swept away or reorganized more logically in the settings menu, rather than pollute the interface. Besides the usual Google applications, Samsung always integrates its media players, Microsoft apps and social networks (icons only, to download after validation) and a briefing page is a news aggregator in partnership with Flipboard.

Also new is the appearance of themes. It is possible to change all the graphical environment of the smartphone via a shop vacuum is for the good time, as theme of interest.

samsung-GS6-them-2.jpg
No doubt once the GS6 on the mass market, free / pay offer will greatly expand. Too bad that Samsung does not offer, as is the case with HTC with the One M9, directly create self variations of themes, icons ...
samsung-GS6-theme-avengers.jpg
Note that all applications, even embedded in the basic smartphone (Google apps included) are deactivated. If the removal of startup apps is not on the menu, to cut them altogether and drinks by even a little space is good news. An infrared transmitter is present and can transform the mobile remote control with the suitable app (more available on the Play Store), as an optical heart rate monitor which, if it is a bit faster than its predecessors, remains our a hand tool to the relative reliability.

Ray performance, on paper the Exynos 7 Octa 7420 seems not much differ from the Exynos 5433 that equip delivered some of the Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge. Indeed, there are two chips on the same type of processor configuration with two groups of four 64-bit cores. The first group contains Cortex A57, used for heavy tasks and needy resources. The second group is composed of Cortex A53, much simpler, slower and very energy efficient. Depending on the task, the active chip or off one or more cores in each group so as to offer the best performance / consumption possible.
The first change, not least, lies in the fine engraving. Korean society here strenna his process 14 nm, 20 nm against the previous generation. Engraved more finely, this chip is, on paper at least, less energy than the previous. Samsung has thus an additional margin to increase the different frequencies. The processor goes and 1.9 / 1.3 GHz and 2.1 / 1.5 GHz depending on whether the A57 or A53. It is the same for iGPU Mali-T760, the frequency of wins 10% (772 MHz) while the number of threads from 6 to 8 (MP6 to MP8). Finally, the memory bandwidth is doubled, Samsung now using the LPDDR4 against the LPDDR3 on series 5000.
So much for the reminder of the technical facts. Situation, this little world turns the Galaxy S6 as a clock. Neither TouchWiz or the proliferation of open applications or heavy use not disturb the terminal. Only mini jolt the app Briefing, probably badly optimized and especially unassimilated base by TouchWiz and that requires additional time to access. For fans of benchmarks, know for information the Exynos 7 outperforms Snapdragon 810 for the CPU part (over 68 000 points on Antutu as against 47 000-53 000 points as smartphones equipped with the Qualcomm chip) and displays performance crude slightly behind the iGPU part. Beautiful beast in all, therefore.
MULTIMEDIA 5/5
Do we still throw flowers to the dedicated video player of Samsung? It sucks everything, read everything, appears equally and without any jolt sources SD, HD or Full HD (AVI / MKV containers), offers direct access to the video editor in a reading and can be displayed in thumbnail Parametric size in a corner of the screen while you use the smartphone for other things. Practice, even if this option is more relevant on a Galaxy Note.
VIDEO
AUDIO
audio Ray, GS6 offers a headphone output of an excellent quality, one of the very best on the market with a very good power, very low distortion (0.005%), large dynamic range, and above all a very nice and wide stereo.
The terminal acquires a single speaker located on the bottom edge and has a powerful return, but with a lot of distortion in the highest levels. Its sound reproduction is focused largely on the midrange and treble; but nevertheless remains relatively controlled. Flat partially preventable: in landscape mode, the grid can be found obstructed by the hand and the sound disappear altogether. Care must be taken while taking the GS6 with the on / off button up and therefore the grid away from the palm.
Samsung Galaxy S6 NOVA
THU
The gaming part is also a success, especially as the previous Galaxy S tended to mark time on this, especially on graphics. With its iGPU Mali-T760 MP8 supercharged, the Exynos 7 is really more ashamed to face the past performance Qualcomm Snapdragon 801/805/120 and iGPU Adreno (330 and 430). WQHD the slab is not a hindrance to the smooth running of all titles in the Play Store. Whatever the game started, the fluidity is with go and graphic quality to match. We are not yet on a report type Shield Tablet with Tegra's K1, but clearly in an upscale environment and this is already a big step.
PICTURE 5/5
We widely effused about the qualities of the NPC Galaxy S6 and this comprehensive report is below, at the bottom of this section, but still worth recalling the outlines of which in date is the best cameraphone consumer market, no less. The GS6 strenna lot of photography news in the family "S". First, the 16MP sensor as the GS5 - but passing at Sony for components this year - celebrates the arrival of an optical stabilization; the shooting interface is gaining sobriety and simplicity of use, video hosting intermediate levels between Full HD and Ultra HD / 4K (Full HD at 60 frames / second + QHD in 2560 x 1440 px ) and an increased uptake in slow motion, with 340 i / s against 120 i / s before.
samsung-GS6-capteur.jpg
Note that Samsung introduces a quick way to access the camera, the GS6 either before or during any other use: double-click the center button. It did look like much, but it quickly becomes indispensable.
On the ground, the increase from the GS5 is clear. If it does not compete fully with iPhone 6 More on photos loaded landscapes, it holds in respect of all other picture components. More dive, heat, natural, but also advanced settings that allow you to set the depth of field (Mode "Pro") or in low light a very honest behavior, without being a killer, but always maintaining a beautiful balance ... the Galaxy S6 is highly versatile and has in addition to a super quick release and stabilization with onions.
