C April 10 start international sales Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge. In connection with the launch of new products Korean videoblogery of AndroidGameE conducted their own tests, comparing to speed with the flagship smartphone Apple.
Journalists emphasize that did not pay attention to the specifications of gadgets (processor, RAM, and so on. d.) Let us look at the subjective sensation of the speed of the device.
The authors set out to compare the roller speed and iPhone 6 Galaxy S6 «in real life.” They loaded the home screen smartphone identical application from online kiosks App Store and Google Play, and took turns to run the program, so comparing performance gadgets.
Pre-memory and iPhone 6 Galaxy S6 were unloaded all background applications . And for the sake of purity of the experiment before testing the device completely off, and then press the power button at the same time.
In the tests we used the Clock app, Camera, Photos, Settings, Safari, Flipboard, Google Maps, Adobe Photoshop Express, Temple Run 2, FIFA 15, Real Racing 3 and others. The first in this test was the Korean smartphone, slightly ahead of the “apple” competitor. Galaxy S6 show results in 2 minutes and 9 seconds to 2 minutes and 17 seconds, the iPhone 6.
Despite the fact that the announcement of Samsung Galaxy S6 was not long The company Samsung Display has already begun preparations for the next release of its flagship smartphone Samsung Galaxy S7.
According to Korean sources, next month, Samsung Display plans to invest heavily in the expansion of production capacity of the plant, is engaged in production of flexible panels, due to the increased demand for this type of Display .
For the release of Samsung Galaxy S7 Korean manufacturer is already required to establish the production of 8 million flexible panels per month. And despite rumors that Samsung has postponed investments at a later date, insiders say ETNews the inevitability of these investments, as the company has no choice but to expand the production capacity of its plant.
As you know, in the production of flexible OLED-displays used polyamide rather than a glass substrate, which has high flexibility and elasticity. But processing polyamide associated with certain difficulties and requires the use of a process.
Flexible displays are beginning to play an increasingly important role in the mobile market, opening up new opportunities for manufacturers, both in terms of design customization of smartphones and tablets, as well as giving them a completely new features. In order to verify this, just think of the Samsung plans to release a tablet with a bending screens.
Earlier edition of THG.ru released review of the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S6 . After a cold reception Public Galaxy S5, Samsung became really useful and innovative features that S6 get relevant and interesting. Read more about this in the article “Review of Samsung Galaxy S6: first look” .

Before the start of sales Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge remains less than two weeks, in connection with which the South Korean giant is increasing the scale advertising campaign dedicated to the output of new products on the market. Even went so far that the company is actually open “pushed” two generations of its flagship – Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S5. On the eve of his official blog Samsung Tomorrow she published infographic, which clearly, in facts and figures demonstrated the superiority of the new model over the last year on key parameters such as display, processor, storage, camera and battery.
Of course directly call to buy Galaxy S6 instead Galaxy S5 sounded, but many may regard The above poster is so. The fact that the previous generation flagship device is still present in the stores and will stay there for some more time. In this case, the majority of the characteristics it really gives novelties, though, in contrast, has a dust- and waterproof housing, a slot for memory cards microSD, as well as cheaper. However, on the last two facts infographic manufacturer does not mention, which is understandable – it is more important to create a strong demand for Galaxy S6, than save it to Galaxy S5.
Recall global sales of Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge start 10 April and showcases to Russian electronics stores smartphones will reach 16 April. The starting price S6 in the domestic market is 54 thousand. Rubles, S6 Edge – 62 thousand. Rubles.

Author consumer test equipment, known under the pseudonym Keaton, released two videos, which showed the process of checking the new flagship smartphone Samsung’s resistance to shock and moisture. Both clips are available on YouTube-channel TechSmartt.
To the surprise of the author of the drop test, the glass screen and glass rear panel managed to break only when butted news on the asphalt by these two parties. In most cases, when the smartphone “accidentally” slipped out of his hands, kick fell to a solid metal frame that almost did not harm devices. In total, before on the glass cracks, Galaxy S6 Edge survived five falls to the pavement from a height of 110 to 180 centimeters.
In the fight against moisture smartphone had complicated. Put in clean water, he survived almost 24 minutes. Author dough recalled that in this case it is necessary to take into account the lack of moisture protection to the Galaxy S6 Edge, so even this result can be considered more than acceptable.
Despite the apparent senselessness of such tests, the owner of YouTube-channel TechSmartt trying to create a relatively realistic conditions. Keaton said that all that he does, can happen in life. The most pointless test equipment, released on video before, was recognized by boiling iPhone 6 in the stake. The most famous video in which is normally discarded small appliances, blenders are commercials company Blendtec.

Perhaps, it is unlikely anyone will dispute the fact that most interesting insight smartphone this year is still the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. The reason for that is not only decent features, among which deserve mention 5.1-inch display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, 3 GB of RAM, eight-processor and a wonderful camera. So-called “wow factor”, which is natural, was the presence of two bends at the edges of the display. However, they have a very strange feature, which spoils the impression of the new items. What are we talking about? Let’s find out.
Samsung engineers bent side faces Galaxy S6 Edge for two reasons. First of all, it was necessary to show the world his skills and capabilities, thereby mastering the attention of fans of other manufacturers. Second, because of this decision failed to diversify the functionality of a smartphone.
In particular, bending devaysa able to demonstrate multicolored notification night, a list of favorite contacts, and many other features, which can be found here.
However, the representatives of the resource phonearena , which are already familiar with your smartphone personally found one “but”. The fact that the use of all of the above functions can be only one face at a time.
In other words, a list of favorite contacts, notifications of missed calls and the weather forecast can be displayed either on the right or to the left.
Of course, this does not mean that at the time of the device of the second bend will not be active. He will continue to serve as a screen on which, for example, over a background image.
However, on the right side to put the most relevant news headlines, and on the left – notification e-mail can not be .
All of this should be an obvious question. And worth it worth it? Perhaps worth restrict an improved version of Galaxy Note Edge with one bend? Most likely, this device each owner sooner or later will give preference to one side. Who needs a second? Share your thoughts in the comments.

The second half of March was characterized by the fact that the company Samsung fixed the date of commencement of sales and prices of smartphones Galaxy S6 family in our country. As can be found on a special page of the official website of Samsung, the Russians will be offered three smartphones: Galaxy S6 (from 53 990 rubles), Galaxy S6 Edge (from 61 990 rubles) and Galaxy S6 DUOS (from 56 990 rubles). The last modification is convenient because it allows you to use two SIM-cards. The official start of sales of smartphones is scheduled for April 16, the samples have demonstrated in the trading rooms throughout the country. Characteristics of new products we have studied in detail the day of the official announcement.
It remains to add that the Galaxy S6 is available for pre-order in the version with 32 GB of memory, in three color options: white, black and gold, with no co-pay for one color is not provided. Galaxy S6 Edge costs from 61 990 rubles for the version with 32 GB of memory, doubling the amount of memory up to 64 GB implies a price increase of up to 64 990 rubles, and the most succinct version with 128 GB of memory is already estimated in 69 990 rubles. For Galaxy S6 Edge available the same three colors as for Galaxy S6.
For the right to use two SIM-card holder Galaxy S6 DUOS should lay out 56,990 rubles, but the basic model of the smartphone is equipped with 64 GB of memory, while the Galaxy S6 in the local specification is equipped with 32 GB of memory. Obviously, the more “receptive” version of the smartphone will be in stores later. The first customers will receive a device for wireless charging smartphones and free courier delivery – in the case of a wholly prepaid. Samsung warns that on April 16 will be available not all colors smartphones.
Chinese companies never hesitated to copy the design of popular devices. By cloned Samsung smartphones and iPhone have all used, as well as to the fact that a clone of the iPhone can be steeper than the original. Well, now is the time Samsung GALAXY S6, but because “shoot” iPhone 6, the Chinese have switched to this device.
It is striking that the first clone Samsung GALAXY S6 appeared before the start of world sales which is scheduled for April 10. Producer of “fake” S6 acted as No.1, which, in general, is known to all who follow the Chinese smartphone market. And No.1 responsibly declares the device is ready to go on sale!
Samsung GALAXY S6, of course, very tech device with advanced design. But let’s face the facts: Russian Samsung GALAXY S6 – the most expensive in the world. On the whole, the price tag on the planet is not very happy. Cheaper to take the iPhone 6. And if in the case of the iPhone the buyer receives not only the “hardware”, but and iOS, in the case of the Samsung GALAXY S6 benefits trends in terms of software for many are not quite so obvious and. Many will say: Android even in Africa Android. So why pay more? Why not take a Chinese clone?
However, the specification of new items yet remain secret. Usually No.1 produced cost devices. In this case, perhaps a clone Samsung GALAXY S6 get a quad-core MediaTek MT6582, and can be, and 64-bit MT6732. RAM is 1.2 GB, and 16 GB built. Available as 3G, 4G and version of the smartphone. In general, for the Chinese manufacturers normally produce Soup completely different configurations – from budget to high-end – in the same model, so it can be anything you want.
But what’s really interesting is the fact how soon will release a Chinese clone Samsung GALAXY S6 edge? By the way, even before the start of sales, it (the original, of course) was a gift Valentin Yudashkin.

Presented in early March smartphones Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge released in versions with 32, 64 and 128 GB of internal memory and at the same time deprived of the possibility of expanding the memory with cards MicroSD. In this case, users 32 GB models будет available only 23 GB of memory, while all the remaining space is occupied by the system. However, users will be able to release a little more space by removing some of the pre-installed applications.
At the same time, according to GSMArena, Samsung will return to the MicroSD slot for Galaxy S6 Active, but would deprive him of a fingerprint scanner and a sensor to monitor heart rate. Also, the new smartphone will be protected from moisture and dust, and receive a removable battery. As expected, Galaxy S6 Active debut in mid-summer, but its price and detailed specifications are still unknown.
And now, Samsung is busy finding new subcontractors to build the new smartphones. According to the GSMArena, she is going to triple production volumes Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, anticipating a huge demand for novelty with a curved screen. According to analysts, until the end of this year, Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge disperse a circulation of over 55 million copies.
For the flagship smartphone Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge Samsung makes versions with 32, 64 and 128 GB of internal memory without the possibility of extension. Meanwhile, as the network sources found, the operating system and preinstalled applications can take quite a lot of space on the flash drive.
For example, after the update all the software on the device with the module at a 32 GB user available only remains little more than 23 GB. That is, the operating system and preinstalled software accounts for almost 9 GB. If you transfer this number to other versions of smart phones, it turns out that in the model with 64 GB storage volume of 55 GB available to the user, and the version with 128 GB RAM – 119 GB. The values may vary depending on sales region units.
Meanwhile, as reported by network sources, the possibility of expanding the internal memory at the expense of cards microSD, most likely, you will have a secure version of the flagship smartphone – Galaxy S6 models Active. In technical terms, this unit will repeat the model Galaxy S6. However, the novelty will receive sealed enclosure, allowing withstand submersion. Shock protection will ensure the preservation of health after the fall.
We add that recently Samsung has named Russian prices of new smartphones. Cost Galaxy S6 starts with 54 thousand. Rubles, Galaxy S6 Edge – 62 thousand. Rubles. Home sales scheduled for April 16.

Position
The market protected devices almost does not offer plates, they can be counted on the fingers of two hands, and the maximum level of protection – it is IP67, ie, the proposed device that can sink, but do not drop. The Chinese companies do not have skills for the production of such devices requires a different process chain. The few that dare to create such products, evaluate their efforts in mad money – for example, a typical tablet of Chinese-made secure with 7, 8-inch screen, the old chipset and with minimal features will cost about $ 350 in wholesale lots. To understand the characteristics of the same tablet without protection can be easily purchased in Russia for about 2.5-3 000. See the difference?
The high cost is also due to the fact that such devices are increasingly segment B2B, than for ordinary consumers. And there reigns Panasonic, which began producing laptops protected many years ago under the name ToughBook, and then released ToughPad.
Panasonic ToughPad
The beauty of these tablets for B2B that maintains high standards of protection, a variety of interfaces, but also the cost of the order of 1 200-1 500 dollars apiece. Similar unprotected devices on the open market cost about 400-450 dollars. In fact, we can say that the protected plates B2B costs about three times more than their counterparts for the mass market. It’s a small niche market at the moment, where Panasonic feels at ease. And Samsung decided to destroy this idyll and released Galaxy Tab Active.
The device is aimed at anyone who does not feel the level of the company Gazprom, does not play a large tenders and not willing to overpay for such devices several times. Compared to existing tablets from Samsung, this device is well behind in terms of functionality, performance, but it has features that are essential for professional use where virtual parrots in benchmarks depart on the tenth plan, and begin to play a role very different factors. In this Samsung device even derived from consumer electronics in the B2B segment and it is the right decision, the usual buyer does not appreciate it – neither cost nor to complete it deems unnecessary. This is not a device for lying on the beach, and a tool for working in environments where reliability, security, ease of charging, comes to the fore. Let’s look at what’s inside this tablet.
Design, size, controls
The plate was certified MIL-STD-810G, which boasts a small number of devices. It comes in the outer cover that provides protection against falls from a height of 1.2 meters, is also on the cover has a stylus holder.
With the stylus funny thing – you can put a resistive screen, and then operate it will not be very convenient in everyday life, but it will work in the rain and under water. Capacitive screen can be wet, but to work with him in such circumstances will not work. The stylus is needed to operate the device in wet conditions when you can not click on icons or menus hands.
The plate was not very large, even in its case. Wear it easily enough, it’s just a plastic cover. The entire structure weighs a little more than 400 grams, the tablet weighs only 393 grams. The layout of the controls is quite usual for the line Tab, on the right side – the volume rocker, an outdoor microUSB connector at the bottom, but it is completely protected against ingress of water.
Under the traditional screen touch buttons replaced by three mechanical buttons that can only approve. On the back you can see the surface of the 3.1-megapixel camera with autofocus. The company argued that business needs are such that they need to take the documents are in good quality, but high resolution is not required, so the camera put this – worked on the autofocus speed. There is also a front camera and light sensor.
If you remove the cover you will see the normal body made in the style of S5 Active. Do not be deceived “metal” screws in the corners, it is a sham. The lid opens like any device, it is necessary to pull it. Inside a slot for memory cards microSD, as well as slot microSIM.
The assembly quality is good, and from the viewpoint of protection can be said that it is easy and without consequences carries fall from a height of 2-2.5 meters on any surface. While continuing their work, I’m sure that eventually defeated him, as well as any similar device.
The size of the tablet – 213.1 x 126.2 x 9.75 mm. It is not a giant, is comparable to conventional tablets, which sharply distinguishes it from the few protected models that are on the market, they are trying to make a big emphasis. Not to mention protected from water tablets Sony, since they have glass on two sides and will not survive even a light fall from two meters. As a rule, they break down almost immediately.

Display
The screen tablet 8 inches, with a resolution of 1280×800 pixels, which is quite comfortable to work with him. It is worth TFT-matrix, it is not SuperAMOLED. In terms of technology have increased the brightness and contrast, 400 nits – it is a very good indicator, automatic brightness control works well. Also added anti-reflective coating, it works fine. Readability is excellent in the sun. Overall, I liked the picture on the screen of the device, with its tasks, it will cope with a bang.
To the content & gt; & gt; & gt;
Battery
Inside the costs Li-Ion Battery capacity 4450 mAh, which, according to the company provides up to 10 hours, plus there is a power-saving modes that can extend this time. Body design suggests that, if necessary, you can replace the battery. But also on the case brought a contact group to charge the device without connecting conventional connector (POGO). This is useful for B2B-customers, especially when you need to charge at the same time a dozen devices.
In practice, the tablet cool video about 8.5 hours at maximum brightness, if you reduce it in half, then it will be 11 hours. The brightness of the screen there is harmful, but all can be seen in the sun. By and large, no different from the current generation of tablets, I have not noticed – all about comparable. It is possible to calculate net, as many times the protected device seems important indicator and want to get great value. This leads to the fact that the weight of the device increases, the size and this would then just be avoided. Separately, I note that the presence of such devices uncharacteristically removable battery is a big plus.
Connectivity
In addition to 3G, supports LTE category 4 6 frequency bands have NFC, support standard Wi-Fi b / g / n / ac, BT 4.0, USB 2.0.

The hardware platform performance
the quad Snapdragon chipset 410, the frequency on the core – to 1.2 GHz (and there is an option on the Exynos), the amount of RAM – 1.5 GB built-in – 16 GB. From a performance standpoint in the interface device is bright enough. Absence of the latter chipset on board, a fairly small amount of memory associated with the timing and complexity of the certification of these products, they become obsolete because of this, not because of the reluctance of the company to add them these components. For B2B market making it a very productive tablet, one of the best. Look at the alternatives and you’ll see how this segment is inert.
To the content & gt; & gt; & gt;
Camera
Fixed focus, resolution of 3.1 megapixels, rather slow and demanding to light. To photograph the documents fit, but if you have good lighting. In general, the presence of cameras in the plus, minus its quality. It is at the same iPad, but not comparable with the latest models from Samsung.
Sample photo

Software features
As such features in this device is not present, the system is installed here KNOX, which allows for the separation of personal and corporate data, also has a built-in camera mode to read bar codes and their recognition. In principle, you can install Android on any of its programs, policies, security and things like that. Inside Android 4.4.4. At this stop, as described by the standard functionality is not very interesting.
Impressions
To this tablet has officially stated that it can operate in temperatures ranging from -20 to +60 degrees Celsius. This sharply distinguishes it from other devices, let us call them everyday for the broader market. This is a typical solution for B2B-segment, where Samsung has started to play an active role, but has not yet released a protected device, as it does not consider this a great niche. Model Galaxy Tab Active – this is the first trial balloon, it is possible that there will be other solutions, but obviously the speed of their output will not be very high – one or two devices per year. This is a fundamentally different market where reliability is more important than the refresh rate of the ruler. Such devices are warranted for 3 years, at the same Panasonic is the same term.
As the first attempt to go into a new market segment, the plate is not bad. No analogues on the market, and the price of $ 699 (in the US) would be worthwhile, as this functionality at the Chinese-protected devices simply do not and can not appear. And they are like this. It remains an open question whether such plates for ordinary consumers. In Russia, the price of this tablet is about 25 thousand rubles, and it can even be found in the free market, another thing is that it is not on the shelves of large networks. But this B2B-product is in store that allows anyone to buy it. Price due to a jump course has not changed. But I stress that this product is of little interest to the average consumer, it is aimed at those who understand why we need such machines.
