The Samsung Galaxy S6 is just one of the two smartphones that the company released today, the other being the Galaxy S6 Edge. The Galaxy S6 packs a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440, and also packs the latest 64-bit octa-core Exynos 7420 CPU from the company. It’s also claiming to have a much better 16 megapixel camera paired with a 5 megapixel selfie camera. It also packs a 2,550 mAh battery that is capable of charging wirelessly.

Aside from the most obvious advances in hardware, Samsung has taken a new direction for some elements, mainly the Galaxy S6’s construction. The company has finally abandoned plastic in the phone’s construction and has finally incorporated better feeling materials such as metal and glass. However, this means that we will no longer see a removable back cover. Samsung has also ditched the micro SD card slot and water-resistance to make way for this new design philosophy.

This is the Samsung Galaxy S6, revealed in photos

After seeing the huge design improvements in Samsung’s recent smartphones like the Galaxy Alpha and the Galaxy Note 4, a lot of people are excited about the Galaxy S6’s design. If you’re one of those people, then wait no more! The Samsung Galaxy S6 may have just been accidentally revealed through some photos on the internet.

Seeing through the case

From the images above, you will notice a few things:

  • There is no opening for the speakers at the back, but one case above suggests that there is one on the bottom left side
  • The flash and the heart-rate monitor is relocated
  • The space for the micro USB port is still wide, which may suggest the presence of waterproofing and / or fast charging with 3.0
  • The back design is still patterned with dots
  • There is a huge chance of having metal on the sides, but the cases are covering it
  • New TouchWiz design is found on the screen

If you search up Galaxy S6 cases on Amazon, you’ll find quite a lot of them – and they’re all consistent regardless of who manufactured the case (Cush Cases, Spigen). Case manufacturers are given the dimensions of companies’ next smartphones ahead of launch, so it’s really safe to say these have a high rate of being accurate. If you want to try and see more of the Galaxy S6, you can already do some early case shopping.
