And I don't use any cases for my phones, sorry, that's just not me. I applied a frame bumper on my Note 3 last month and then I sold it, even though it was just a frame bumper but still I couldn't fathom it. If a device looks sexy and elegant I tend to use it that way. And to my eyes the design of Note 3 is excellent. Yeah, dumb people will call it plastic blah blah, but like I ever did care! The beauty of a naked phone can never be achieved with any cases, forget those heavy Otterbox or Case Mate ones! Ugh.. I only have two usernames, this and Saurav Ghosh (which is my original name, and I am forced to use it when GSMArena for some weird reason blocks my comment from this account!).

My current device is a Samsung (Note 3) and the next one will b... moreI did not know its u ...may be u have used a different nick name .yeh man even i know that nothing is perfect..i was just replying to ur ugly statement.but my point is still valid .what u r doing is u r compairing a rugged SUV to a pretty SEDAN.U may not do this but do u know that majority of ppl who buy note3 note 4 s6 , s6 edge iphone 6/ plus ,z1,2,3,4 , lg g,1,2,3,4 wud put a CASE on a there pretty phones and make it look some what like s6 active only..so the point is u r getting a readymade case that too with water and dust proofing ...and u r saying its ugly ....get ur eyes checked ...lol.

I can also charge the spent ba... more1) ....I get what u r saying but i think there r very few ppl who use mobile data and mobile battery this extensively , dont get me wrong i am not saying that what u r doing is not good for u, trust me if i had the usage like u i might even get another 3 to 4 batterys and replace it every now and then but i think that the majority of the ppl do not have that kind of usage including me eg i use to like the idea of replacing the battery but later i found myself hating to change battery , i find attaching a powerbank for 15 to 20 mins and get atleast 30% more battery easy and it also keeps my phone on i mean i dont have to restart it also keeps everything (opened apps) the way it is .......2).... Micro sd card slot is always a welcome but not at the cost of performance and android does not support data saving to the sd card without root so a fast 64gb inbuilt mem is better and enough for me ... 3)... I use my wifi/ broadband connection for games movies videos and stuff my plan is like 2500 rs a month for 16mbps speed unlimited ...LTE plans in my country is still way expensive one can get away with a good 3g plan for cheap in here.

*disparages people for their personal cell phone and internet use* *does it while commenting on a cell phone site, via the internet* I do hope you see the hypocrisy I mean irony, of course. I'm on a corporate plan, so no, I'm not wasting money. By thanks for the assessment all the same! And by the way, I lived without a cellphone and Internet for just as long. Big deal.

Got the 64gb regular S6, great phone, but would definitely go for 64gb Active, prefer the bigger memory. Fingerprint sensor on S6 is great, would love to see this on S6 Active. Hope the S6 Active will come to the UK, would be my next phone. Have always gone for Xperia Z phones in the past.

I would also add monochrome in normal mode (not limited to few apps).
What else is good amoled for - colors on xperia looks better (even if not true in spec on paper) - better brightness,...

TheNeighbor, 25 Jun 2015So you hate having mobile internet? How hypocritical of you.I hate that people are so connected online but disconected in real world can you help md add this series, 1+1/2+1/3+1/4+..., this is real world, not facebook or any form of social media, telcos are the ones making profit of your being unhypocritical, you are wasting money for this 5GB plan, i live for 30 yrs without a phone or internet.

I certainly see what you're saying, but I back up photos to google photos, I use Google play all access for music, SMS+/Gmail backup. Beyond that, I personally don't have any other important data on my phone, so for *my* particular usage, it's not really an issue (having a 5gb data/month + wifi at home and at work). I could live with it.

In the event that you will send your S6 active for repair and you have no time to backup your data, then you will know that having a microSD still the wise decision.

This is definitely the phone that could bring me back to Samsung. All the bells and whistles of the S6 with some pretty outstanding battery life. Sure, it's not the most svelte or stylish, but generally I've found that using a case renders extra bulk and turns mosts smartphones into a screen (i.e., the exterior becomes more or less irrelevant). Having had an Xperia Z3, this is the next logical step for me. More storage would be nice, but nothing's perfect. I can live with 32gb.
