One of the great features of the flagship smartphone of Samsung last year, the Galaxy S6, is its Super AMOLED display that the Korean tech giant also uses on its HD TVs.
It is a stunning display that shows everything brighter, clearer, and more captivating on-screen, and also automatically adjusts to all light conditions, cites the Albany Daily Star.
Aside from its superb 5.1-inch display, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is also very powerful to use and quite beautiful to behold.
It features a slim and lightweight metal uni-body and glass design that really make a bold statement. Under the hood, it is powered by Samsung’s very own Exynos 7420 octa-core 64-bit processor that delivers the most power and speed that anyone has ever put in a smartphone as of last year.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 is also equipped with a 2,550 mAh fast-charging battery that also makes use of the Korean tech giant’s exclusive Power Saving Mode. It also comes with wireless charging capabilities. With its fast-charging feature, the battery goes from zero to about 50% in about 30 minutes. The Power Saving Mode, on the other hand, can ensure call and text function within the next 24 hours even if the battery is already down to 10% power.
Bringing the features of an extinct back
Samsung is now offering its users a certain downloadable Good Lock UI that is pretty close to stock Android, reports the Daily Sun of Knoxville.
It is the Korean tech giant’s way of bringing back the features of an extinct known as the Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition, which somehow died a quiet death following the release last year of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S7 this year.
Users of Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S7 would go all out just to have the features back and Samsung has given in to their demands.
But users on TouchWiz or Good Lock would still have to wait for three quarters for Android version updates. Amid their insistent clamor, Smartphone flagship users do not have the numbers.
Samsung and Google would have revived Google Play Edition if they believe that most users wanted stock Android. But both companies know that there is no money in it. Thus, the recourse for Samsung is to just use a stock Android feature to unload the bootloader of the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S7 and fill the UI inside. However, Samsung also locked that options with the Samsung Galaxy S7 by protecting the bootloader.
Marshmallow updates on the Galaxy S6
The Android 6.0 Marshmallow firmware update has officially rolled out to the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge in March this year so it is rather frustrating for users of the devices on the AT&T network that up until the end of May, the update has yet to come to their handsets.
But finally, the long wait is over as the Android 6.0 Marshmallow finally arrived on the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge under AT&T in the first week of June, making it the last of the big four American carriers to do so.
The frustration of Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge users are understandable considering the fact that Google has also officially greenlit the roll out of the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow to the Galaxy S6 Edge and the Galaxy S6 Edge, among other mobile devices about the same time.
Given such situation, it would not be surprising if Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge users under AT&T would only enjoy the Android 6.0 Marshmallow in a matter of minutes or hours before deciding to upgrade to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
The only problem is they don’t use that technology in their TV. Smiled stands for active matrix old. Lg manufacture old TV not Samsung
