Samsung unveiled their latest Galaxy at the prestigious Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona this week to much fanfare, and I have to say, the S6 looks pretty impressive.
They actually unveiled two S6 models, the standard and the Galaxy S6 Edge version, here’s how they stack up.
Both of the models have glass backs, 64 bit Exynos octa-core processors (you heard right – eight cores), 3gb of on-board RAM, 5.1 inch qHD displays and 16megapixel cameras, amongst other impressive specs.
Verizon will begin taking pre-orders on April 1st and the Galaxy S6 will be rolled out across the globe on April 10th.
