We just saw some photos of a new clear case for the Samsung Galaxy S6 and now we have some more information on the design of the handset.
Some new renders and leaked schematics of the Samsung Galaxy S6 have appeared online, which appear to show what the handset will look like.
Display and Design
Along with the photos was the information that Samsung will use a 4.9 inch QHD display in the handset, we had previously heard that the device would come with a 5.1 inch display. The QHD display is expected to offer a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, providing users with a sharp and vibrant viewing experience. This change in screen size might be a strategic move by Samsung to make the device more compact and easier to handle, while still delivering high-quality visuals.
The design of the Galaxy S6 is anticipated to be a significant departure from its predecessors. The leaked schematics suggest a more premium build, possibly incorporating metal and glass materials, which would align with Samsung’s recent trend of enhancing the aesthetic appeal of their flagship devices. The clear case photos also hint at a sleek and minimalist design, with rounded edges and a slim profile.
Hardware and Performance
The Galaxy S6 is expected to feature a new eight-core Samsung Exynos 7420 64-bit processor and 3GB of RAM. This combination is likely to provide robust performance, capable of handling multitasking, gaming, and other demanding applications with ease. The Exynos 7420 is built on a 14nm process, which should offer improved efficiency and better thermal management compared to previous generations.
In terms of storage, the Galaxy S6 is rumored to come in multiple variants, including 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB options. This would give users ample space to store their apps, photos, videos, and other data without worrying about running out of storage.
The handset is also rumored to come with a 5-megapixel front camera and a 20-megapixel rear camera. The front camera is expected to be optimized for selfies and video calls, featuring wide-angle capabilities and possibly some advanced software enhancements for better image quality. The rear camera, on the other hand, is anticipated to offer high-resolution photos and 4K video recording. It may also include optical image stabilization (OIS) and advanced autofocus technology to ensure sharp and clear images even in challenging lighting conditions.
Additional features that are expected to be part of the Galaxy S6 include a fingerprint scanner, heart rate monitor, and possibly an improved version of Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface. The fingerprint scanner is likely to be integrated into the home button, providing an added layer of security and convenience for unlocking the device and authorizing payments.
We cannot confirm if these photos show the exact design of the new Galaxy S6, we guess we will have to wait until MWC 2015 next month to find out. The Mobile World Congress (MWC) is one of the biggest events in the mobile industry, and it is the perfect stage for Samsung to unveil their latest flagship device. Until then, we can only speculate based on the leaks and rumors that have surfaced.
