Which phone is better samsung galaxy s6. Samsung Galaxy S6 vs Galaxy A5 (2017): comparison of smartphones of different classes. Design, dimensions, controls

Many who are used to changing their smartphone once a year (in accordance with the change schedule of most flagships) are wondering if it is worth spending 40,000 rubles on an upgrade. Last year, the flagship of the S line from Samsung cost about 30 thousand, this year - about 10 thousand more. Willy-nilly, you begin to look towards more affordable solutions. And here you are already wondering: how to save money and at the same time make the right choice? Or maybe it's worth paying extra and getting one of the best devices on the market?

So, the selection criteria: a new device from a well-known manufacturer (not Chinese), premium case materials, a good camera, a high-quality screen. For the purity of the experiment, we take 2 devices from the same manufacturer.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy A7 in my hands. Both devices are well built. S6 - metal and glass on the back, A7 - metal (partially painted) throughout. Both devices have good cameras: 16 megapixels with optical stabilization in the S6 and a 13-megapixel module without it in the A7. Both there and there are Super Amoled screens (QHD for S6 and FullHD for A7).

Let's try to figure out whether it is worth overpaying 17,000 rubles (namely, such a difference in the official cost of devices at the time of writing the review) for the older Galaxy S6 model.

Seven reasons for the Galaxy S6

1) Image / Flagship

The Galaxy S6 is Samsung's top smartphone until the fall of 2015, when the Note 5 comes out. Hence the perception of the device. The wow effect, of course, is not the same as from the iPhone 6 at the time of release, but close to it. This time the device is uncompromising - glass, metal, in the hand it feels not like a plastic toy, but like an “adult”, solid thing. For Samsung, this is unusual.

size 2

You take the S6 in your hand after the A7 and rejoice - it's not so difficult to reach for the upper left corner of the screen. The smartphone fits perfectly in the hand. The size is what you need. It is optimal for a compromise between usability and screen size.

3) Screen

The screen on the Galaxy S6 is fantastically good. Resolution 2560x1440 with a diagonal of 5.1 inches (many modern TVs with larger diagonals have a lower resolution). The pixel density is a record for mobile devices - 577 dots per inch (for comparison, printing - 300 dots). But in everyday use, it will be difficult to notice the difference with a FullHD screen, unless, of course, you carry a magnifying glass with you.

4) Camera

Samsung has been putting excellent cameras on its flagships in recent years. The Galaxy S6 is no exception. In all conditions (sunny weather, indoors, and in the evening), the S6 allows you to take excellent amateur-level shots. The camera works very fast under any conditions. Optical stabilization does its job on the "five" - ​​where the A7 misses a lot, the S6 shoots clearly.

5) Platform / performance

Other planet. The first thing that comes to mind when you compare S6 and A7 head-on. Samsung's flagship just flies. The interface, launching applications, switching between programs is space-fast. No, A7 is not slow. The Galaxy S6 is just too fast. And you quickly get used to it.

6) Functionality (chips)

The absence of "bells and whistles", which I will soon count as a "plus" of the A7, is an unaffordable luxury for the S6. Everything that Samsung has come up with is here (with the exception of the stylus and the chips associated with its use - this is the territory of the Note line). A smartphone can absorb in itself for a couple of days. And still, you will not even guess about some of the possibilities. For many, this complicates the process of using the phone; others, on the contrary, cannot imagine their life without, for example, a heartbeat sensor. The advantage is that you can not use all the "bells and whistles". But it's always nice to know they're there.

7) Android version updates

Well, the last. The Galaxy S6 runs Android 5 (out of the box 5.0.2). Since this is the company's flagship, you can be sure that the S6 will be one of the first to receive system updates in the future. However, A7 in Russia also received an update to version 5.0.2.

Six reasons for the A7


1) Screen size

In the head of many smartphone owners there is an understanding that the larger the screen in a smartphone, the cooler and more expensive it is (fans of Apple products after the release of 6 and 6 Plus are definitely convinced of this). But there are exceptions to all rules.

The screen size of the A7 is 5.5 inches with a resolution of 1920x1080. It is bright, saturated, the settings allow you to "fit" the screen for yourself (for critics of AMOLED screens, this will be very important). The screen after a day of use no longer seems too big. You quickly adapt to using with two hands. After the A7, I don't want to go back to smaller screens. The resolution is more than enough to not see individual pixels (although those who want to find pixelated fonts will find them). The text on the screen is clear, photos and videos are displayed perfectly. In the sun, the screen behaves very well - an excellent margin of brightness affects.

2) Housing

The A7, like the entire Galaxy A series (A3, A5, A7), uses an all-metal body. The smartphone is non-separable (it will not work to transfer the battery on the go). It is worth noting that the A7 is the thinnest Galaxy smartphone to date. Even a slightly protruding camera does not spoil the impression of the device. In general, such a solution looks more reliable from the point of view of the fall of the phone. And what is better - a dent in the metal or broken glass - is up to the end user to decide. I vote metal.

3) Simplicity

It is strange to write this, but the Galaxy A7 attracts, among other things, with its simplicity. There is no heart rate sensor, there is no fingerprint unlock, there are fewer camera settings. In general, the A7 is a smartphone without unnecessary bells and whistles. For some, this is a definite plus.

4) Expandable memory

The Galaxy A7 has 16 gigabytes of internal memory. To whom this is not enough, it can expand the memory with a memory card (memory up to 64 GB is supported). In the Galaxy S6, you need to choose the amount of memory when buying. At the same time, the cost of additional space is much higher than the cost of a memory card of the same size.

5) Dual Sim

The Galaxy A7 has 2 slots for SIM cards. In fact, it is impossible to directly call it a device with 2 SIM cards. The user needs to make a choice - either put 2 SIM cards, or expand the memory using a microSD card (universal slot). I used to be embarrassed by this decision. Now I see in it more pluses than minuses. Do you need to insert a working SIM card? Please. Need more memory for photos on a trip? No problem!

6) Price

Here the victory of the Galaxy A7 is obvious. If we consider the official sales channels, the A7 is about a third cheaper than the Galaxy S6.

conclusions

Is the Galaxy S6 better than the Galaxy A7? Yes, better. Almost everything. Is the S6 better enough to overpay 12-13 thousand rubles for it? I think yes, it's much better. Prices for smartphones have risen, following the change in the exchange rate of the ruble. But the flagships remained the flagships - and for the best manufacturers used to ask for more.

Not so long ago, flagship smartphones from Samsung, namely the Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge, fell into my hands. No, I did not purchase these two flagships, they just gave my friend SGS6 Edge, and another friend SGS6. And so I wondered which version of S6 is better. After a few moments of using the device, I realized that you absolutely should not overpay for the curved screen that the Galaxy S6 Edge has. Read more in my author's review of Korean novelties.

Specifications, in general, are the same, so we will not get hung up on them.

Now let's take a closer look at the main functions of the flagships and compare them.

Equipment

The flagship smartphone from the Korean company Samsung comes with headphones, a power adapter (where USB is connected), a USB adapter itself, and documentation. Also in the photo above you can see a special stick for SIM cards.

Appearance: which of the flagships turned out more beautiful

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge undoubtedly looks beautiful and attractive, hands are drawn to this particular variation. A screen curved on both sides, pleasant colors and, of course, the metal case itself, covered with Gorilla Glass protective glass… do I need more words?

But there is one downside. Due to the curved screen, the manufacturers had to make the side frames very thin, so when using this smartphone, they will constantly dig into the palm of your hand. Frankly, there were accidental clicks on the side displays, which interfered with the work with the smartphone. But the Galaxy S6 device isn't ugly either. If you do not look at the lack of a curved display, the model turned out to be quite nice.


Pleasant to the touch case, covered, like the Edge version, with protective glass Gorilla Glass 4. The rounded metal edging on the sides of the case successfully complements the design of the flagship. But this format also has its drawbacks. If you use the device for a long time, it will certainly heat up. Both the glass surface and the metal edging suffer here. The glass surface is very easily soiled, it is easy to smudge, and it will no longer look very attractive from the outside. But on a device with a snow-white color, this is almost imperceptible.


The build quality of the regular and curved versions is at a high level. As already published on Thresh, despite the lack of moisture protection, the smartphone was successfully able to. This speaks of a truly flagship build.

Screen

The screen of the Koreans turned out to be quite good (now we are talking about the S6), I would even say excellent. A 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2560x1440 provides the best pixel density of 577 ppi, which is currently the highest among smartphones.


Thanks to advanced screen brightness settings (up to 700 cd/m2), you can use the device in any light conditions, whether it's a bright sunny day on the field or a dark night in the wilderness.
The Galaxy S6 Edge has the same specs but with a more flexible screen. Here, Samsung uses a similar technology to the LG G Flex. The company used an OLED display, the LEDs of which can be applied to any surface (flexible, transparent, solid).


In the version of the Galaxy S6 Edge, the Korean company uses flexible plastic, on which OLEDs were applied.
In addition to all of the above, both flagships have an anti-reflective coating.

Display curves

Finally, we will find out what is the meaning of the curved screen in the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. The smartphone has a far-fetched, but interesting feature. You are offered five colors that you can choose for certain contacts in order to separate them into categories (friends, enemies, from work, relatives, children).


As soon as your phone receives calls from certain contacts, the screen will shimmer with the specified color on both sides. In addition to this function, there are a couple of useful tools.


First, the night hours. You can set when and on which of the bends the time will be displayed. Secondly, the “information flow” function, that is, notifications and information of interest to you will be sent to the bends in the form of a tape.




Last but not least, thanks to the SuperAMOLED display (with its deep blacks), the borders of the screen will not glow light black, but only the notifications/clock itself. This is a significant plus for fans of style and fashion.

System

Samsung's flagships run on Google's latest OS, Android 5.0. Smartphones have a theme store that allows you to easily customize the look for yourself. But it is worth saying that the famous Samsung tachwiz has not gone away.


But the fact that the developers made it a little easier, saved us from unnecessary functions, pleases us. The design of many standard applications has changed, it's good that for the better. I note the presence of a fingerprint scanner, it works amazingly quickly and without errors. Among other things, the smartphone has a built-in Samsung Pay payment system, which, when you turn on superuser rights (ROOT).



From the minimum of pre-installed applications - Microsoft services (yes, you can't do without them): OneDrive (10 GB for free), OneNote and Skype. Of the interesting, there is also a Smart Manager utility that allows you to monitor battery performance and memory.
Of particular note is the camera app that launches instantly - a dream for a photographer who loves to capture fast-paced moments. But more on that below.

Camera: which smartphone does the best job

The Galaxy S6 features a 16MP main camera that captures breathtaking images. What's more, optical stabilization and flash (albeit LED) make Samsung's new flagship a good choice for photographers. In terms of camera, both versions are almost the same (at least I didn’t notice any differences). Both the S6 and S6 Edge perform this function at the highest level.




It is worth giving preference to the built-in camera application, which instantly takes pictures. And a large number of settings will help you make a real masterpiece of world art from a photo. Here, check out sample photos taken with the main camera of the flagships (click on the image to see the original):




Performance and autonomy

As for the performance category, the proprietary Samsung Exynos 7420 processor helped the device take first place in the AnTuTu benchmark (temporarily). The smartphone has received more than 69k points - an unprecedented record!

Unfortunately, due to the lack of constant access to the models, I was unable to test the battery autonomy with the Treshbox's proprietary tester. Therefore, you have to believe only my words (and the screen above), and I, in turn, the words of the public. A vicious circle is obtained.

Communication and communications

In general, both smarts here are in the same niches, I personally did not notice any differences from the operation of networks. The speed of receiving and transmitting data via mobile Internet networks is almost unlimited, 4G LTE takes its toll.


In addition, the transfer between devices via Bluetooth is also on top, because both models use version 4.1, the most advanced. But for streaming a high-bitrate video file, this will still not be enough, so the smart has a Wi-Fi (ac) and Wi-Fi Direct wireless module installed. Thanks to the NFC chip, the new Korean flagships can be used as a regular credit card.

Conclusion: which one is better?

Summing up the use, I will say that having a version with curved edges is stylish, but expensive. On the other hand, it is quite interesting to use a smartphone with a rounded display.


But these are the first 10 days for sure, a maximum of a month. And then you get bored, it becomes indifferent: there are side screens, there are none ... Therefore, for long-term use, I advise practical and economical people to buy Galaxy S6. As you can see from the review, both flagships are absolutely no different: one system, one hardware, one camera, the same communication capabilities. Yes, and using the S6 is easier, because you will not be afraid that the smartphone is about to slip out like a piece of toilet soap.


But if you love style, try to follow all fashion trends and are not going to actively use such a smartphone, then take the Edge version, I am sure you will like it. I hope I did not write this review-comparison in vain. Thanks for attention!

I have been using Samsung Galaxy S6 for a year and a half, and I am still surprised at the innovativeness of this device. Given the low price of the smartphone and its year of release (2015), it can still compete with the new Iphone, LG, Sony yes, and with the same Galaxy S7! Pretty strong glass, because. several times the device slipped out of the hands and fell on the carpet, tile and even on asphalt, but there is no visible damage (only a small scratch on the back of the smartphone). The design is very attractive, in bright light it shimmers from black to blue, which is why the color is sapphire. The software has not changed much lately, it is just as comfortable. Throughout the use of the S6, I was able to love the fast charging and the smart sound, but it's a pity that Samsung got rid of the moisture protection. Once water got into the smartphone, I was scared that the screen was flickering in different colors, but it passed). The camera is top notch, brother Sony Z5, the company claims that their camera with 23MP is the best, but my Galaxy has it much cooler, especially in the dark. About the processor, I can say that all programs and games like asphalt work smoothly. I want to say that this phone deserves the 1st place in the ratio "price/quality"!

Samsung released two Android flagships this time around and set a new high bar for all other smartphone manufacturers. The Galaxy S6 is very different from previous generations and there are a number of key features that make it stand out from the competition in the market. But the Galaxy S6 Edge also stands out very much against the background of the S6, like the S6 itself from the background of other smartphones.

However, there are already questions about the choice between the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Is it worth taking the Edge version of the flagship just for the screen with two curved sides? So I decided to dwell on this a little more and identify as many differences as possible between the two flagships to help you make your choice.

Display

The Galaxy S6 has a 5.1-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display at 577ppi, although the EDGE version has exactly the same specs on paper, only it has more functionality with two curved sides. Therefore, here you will be forced to decide whether a curved display will be convenient for you. While it is difficult to even imagine how you can stick a protective film on such a screen. But, in my opinion, the Galaxy S6 Edge attracts more attention and interest due to the unusual shape of the screen.

Power

It's even hard to say something. The flagships are identical - the same hardware platform is chosen, because the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge each have 3GB of RAM and run on the same processor - Exynos 7420, which is a powerful eight-core and already 64-bit “heart”. If you suddenly see that some sources indicate different processor frequencies in S6 and S6 Edge, then they are simply trying to mislead you. The tests will still show the same characteristics and the same processor.

Memory

The Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge received 3 storage options from Samsung: 32GB, 64GB and 128GB. But there is no support for microSD cards, so there will be no information anywhere that the new Samsung flagship has a special tray for memory cards. Hope is not worth it.

Battery

Galaxy S6 received a 2550 mAh battery, which became non-removable, but there is support for wireless charging. The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, for some strange reason, has a larger 2600 mAh battery, although it looks smaller on the outside. This means that the Edge version of the flagship will be able to work at least a little, but longer. At some point, it may even help out.

cameras

The Galaxy S6 has reappeared with a 16-megapixel camera, but the specifications are much more attractive than we could imagine before the presentation. This is worth talking about separately, but for now I will note that there is no difference between the S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge at this point of comparison. Everything is the same - and the camera, and its capabilities, and even the front 5-megapixel camera is the same.

Software

The Galaxy S6 runs Android 5.0.2 Lollipop with a lighter version of TouchWiz. Everything is the same on the Galaxy S6 Edge, but there is a difference - due to the installation of a curved screen, we have additional functional features. Many people will like it.

Design

Galaxy S6 has finally gone as far as possible from all its predecessors. The design was finalized so that only the main characteristic features of the Galaxy S line remained, but everything else was changed - the case materials were chosen so that the smartphone not only seemed premium in appearance, but also to the touch. The Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge received glass panels along with a metal frame. The edge version of the smartphone is very different from the simple S6 with a front panel - the smartphone is curved on the sides, the screen itself has curved parts. This has had a significant effect on the appearance and parameters - the smartphone weighs 6g less than the Galaxy S6, while its dimensions are as follows: 142.1 x 70.1 x 7.0 mm.

By the way, as for the Galaxy S6, its dimensions are 143.4 x 70.5 x 6.8 mm. Finally, smartphones will be available in a wide range of colors, but here we are faced with a difference. Black, white and gold will be common to the two variants of the flagship, but the Galaxy S6 will still be on sale in blue and the Galaxy S6 Edge in emerald green.

conclusions

You can see for yourself that the choice is quite difficult. Both devices are identical in terms of specifications and on the technical side there is only one difference - the Galaxy S6 Edge has a battery, the capacity of which is only 50 mAh more. We have already compared the sizes of smartphones, but even by eye it is quite difficult to distinguish which smartphone is thinner and which is longer.

In general, the only catch when choosing is only the screen. The Galaxy S6 Edge is the world's first smartphone to have a curved screen on both sides. This makes it stand out from the rest of the selection on the market. But here I note that the purchase of the Galaxy S6 Edge will cost more by about $ 150. Is it worth it to overpay? Do not know. But with a unique opportunity to get such a smartphone, I would not hesitate if I had such an amount on hand and an offer to buy the new Samsung flagship right now.

If you ask any user of mobile gadgets which smartphone is out of competition, both in the Russian market and abroad, almost everyone will answer that this is an Apple phone. For many years now, Apple smartphones have maintained a leading position in the mobile phone market. And if you compare any product from this company with the best phones from other manufacturers, Apple devices in most cases will take the lead.

However, there are exceptions. Despite the fact that iPhones have proven themselves well with tens of thousands of consumers, sometimes someone will hesitate and think about switching to another brand. Among such gadgets that can seriously compete with iPhones is the Samsung Galaxy. In terms of its functionality, Galaxy is very close to the sixth version of the iPhone, so from time to time someone tries to compare these two devices.

Today's article compares iPhone 6S or Samsung Galaxy S6. Based on a detailed analysis, let's try to figure out which is better than iPhone 6 or Samsung 6 in order to make the right choice and not regret it in the future.

If you choose a phone based on the specifications, and think about what to focus on - the iPhone 6S or the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge - then the latter gadget will clearly win. The display of the Korean device is significantly larger, and its operation is based on more modern technology. The screen cover is made of special glass. But both devices have fingerprint scanners, which provides great opportunities in the user data protection system and simplifies the process of paying for purchases, which is now carried out in a matter of seconds.

The disadvantages of Galaxy are, first of all, in large dimensions: the Korean device is somewhat thicker than its American "brother". But this difference is not so significant and is only 0.1 millimeters. Another disadvantage of this model is the slightly protruding camera. However, the very quality of the camera on the Samsung phone is much better.

The advantages of the Samsung Galaxy camera compared to the similar element of the iPhone 6S:

  • The presence of optics stabilization.
  • More (100%) the number of megapixels.
  • The front camera is superior to the iPhone camera in all respects.

It should be rightly noted that the cases are good for both devices. But the iPhone case is completely aluminum, while the Galaxy includes glass elements. Although the glass looks beautiful, it is a rather fragile material, so its presence in the case can be attributed to minor disadvantages. But, nevertheless, it all depends on the accuracy of the user and his approach to the operation of mobile technology. Owners of a Samsung device can only be advised to handle smartphones as carefully as possible and prevent the device from falling from a great height.

Samsung Galaxy S6, if you compare this phone with other, earlier products from Samsung, is fundamentally different from them. Previously, all phones came in plastic cases. The design has become more perfect, the finish is more refined and refined. The color scheme is varied and includes 5 colors

Galaxy manufacturer released in the following colors:

  • White.
  • Gold.
  • Deep blue.
  • blue.
  • Green.

You will not find such a color palette in any other device. As Galaxy sales statistics show, most users have focused on the white case - oddly enough, because of its practicality and because it gets dirty less than other cases. However, it is necessary to clean the case and wipe it with a dry cloth often, because. fingerprints remain on it (this feature applies only to the glass elements of the device).

The case of the gadget from Samsung has become monolithic, which eliminated the possibility of installing a compartment for SIM cards and a removable battery in the device. The capacity of the latter, in comparison with other models, has not been increased, but it still surpasses the iPhone 6S in terms of power. In addition, the manufacturer added a wireless charger to the gadget - this is one of its main features and advantages over the iPhone.

By the way, Galaxy's stuffing is richer. The device from Samsung is based on a 14-bit processor and 3 gigabytes of RAM. And the sixth iPhone version S has a 64-bit A8 processor, and only 1 gigabyte of RAM.

Going a little ahead, let's touch on the differences between the displays. Samsung also did not increase the diagonal of the screen, it remained. As in previous phones - 5.1 inches. The iPhone 6 looks worse in this regard, but it cannot be said that it is bad - no, but its Korean competitor clearly wins here.

It should be noted that the display can be the main feature of any mobile device, because when choosing it, a potential consumer pays attention first of all. And only then he considers the camera, the quality of the buttons, the speed of opening applications, etc. Even at the first glance at the two compared high-tech devices, it becomes clear that the engineers from Korea did a great job, making the Galaxy screen thoughtful in terms of design and more convenient.

iPhone 6S VS Samsung Galaxy S6: screen test

The Galaxy S6 VS displays and the iPhone 6 S have specs that are significantly different from each other. The screen of the first device is based on advanced technology and includes a self-emitting matrix with organic light diodes. The pixel density of Galaxy is phenomenal - at the level of 577 ppi, and today this is the best indicator among mobile devices.

The display of the iPhone 6 version S is more conservative and includes an inch LCD matrix. The pixel density of the latter is 2 times less than that of a smartphone from Samsung. If you look at the iPhone screen up close, then pixelation becomes noticeable, while this is not observed at all on the second gadget. Although, if you do not peer, on the displays of both models the picture is quite decent, black and clear. Only the most demanding user can find fault with the iPhone 6 according to this indicator.

By the way, it is worth talking about the degree of brightness of the screens in more detail. This characteristic of the Galaxy can reach 380 cd/m 2 with a maximum reduction in the white fill area, and in bright light this quite good result increases by 3.5 times.

So, the undeniable advantages of the Galaxy display are as follows:

  • Brighter screen.
  • High performance anti-glare coating.
  • Increased contrast.
  • Rich color and natural picture in any light conditions.

The brightness of the iPhone 6 S, if we consider the maximum indicator, is also high - 550 cd / m 2, but the Galaxy smartphone still loses. The display of this device also has anti-glare technology and a high degree of contrast.

The gamma of both devices during setup does not cause any problems, and the indicators are close to ideal values. And for both phones, everything is almost the same here.

In general, a comparison of the iPhone 6 S and Galaxy screens shows a clear superiority of the Korean smartphone in the following indicators:

  • Brightness and contrast.
  • Width of viewing angles.
  • More flexible color settings.

Despite the foregoing, it will again emphasize that the superiority of the Galaxy does not mean that the iPhone is bad in any way. For example, the LCD technology in the display is the most advanced among all smartphones. And to the average user, all the differences from the Galaxy listed above are not striking. But, of course, an experienced user will immediately notice a shade of blue on the display, as well as imperfect clarity.

Comparison of iPhone 6 with Galaxy S 6: the essentials

Finally, we give a visual comparison of the characteristics of the two devices, so that you can quickly determine for yourself the advantages and disadvantages of each phone. Below is a comparison table of both gadgets.

iPhone 6S VS iPhone 6S - comparative characteristics, table

Phone model Samsung Galaxy S6 32GB Apple iPhone 6 16GB
Price from 25 000 rub. from 40 000 rub.
Weight OK. 140 grams OK. 130 grams
Operating system Android 5 iOS version 9
Image resolution 16 megapixels 8 megapixels
Screen diagonal 5.1 inches 4.7 inches
CPU Samsung Exynos 7420 Apple A8
Processor cores 8 2
RAM 32 gigabytes 16 gigabytes

The table above clearly shows the similarities and differences between the 2 smartphone models that today's review is devoted to. So, as always, Apple phones are one of the most expensive mobile gadgets on the market. Is it justified or not? Here the opinions of users, as always, differ. But a number of owners of "apple" devices have a strong opinion that, with all the positive properties of iPhones, their price is much too high. Advanced users know how to buy an Apple phone much cheaper than in Russia - for example, buy an American device and then unlock it.

One of the significant differences between one device and another is the camera, the characteristics of which are undoubtedly better in Galaxy. In terms of performance, the performance of the device from Samsung is also superior to the iPhone 6S.

However, despite all of the above, we note that any technique is tested in action. On paper, incl. in the instructions for devices, a lot can be written, because each manufacturer praises his product. It is also worth listening to the opinions of other users. But do not put them at the forefront when choosing a smartphone for yourself, because everyone has their own tastes and preferences. For each of us, certain functions of the phone are important. For some - the quality of communication during calls, for others - the possibilities of RAM and performance, for others - the quality of the camera, etc.
