Samsung Galaxy S6 is certainly one of next year’s most desirable smartphones, as the Korean giant has big plans for what will most likely be its new flagship model. Samsung will try to break the pattern with this one, seeking to introduce a completely redesigned body and powerful hardware to go with it. A change is on the horizon and this shall be reflected in a brand new Galaxy S6 slim metal body, which will be a welcomed transition from the classic plastic design seen in its flagship predecessors. While Sony and Microsoft are rounding up their top of the line models, Samsung tries to keep one step ahead, but will they manage to do so? Of course, the Galaxy S6 is expected to deliver solid performance, as this was always the forte of all Galaxy S devices. The fair amount of power complemented by a newly redesigned metal body might just give the Galaxy S6 an edge over its immediate rivals.
