    Honestly I don't know why Samsung doesn't just drop Android all together and go with Tizen! It might also be an idea that Samsung drops the Exynos processor and starts buy A10 chipsets. There is a reason Apple have been so successful for such a long time!

        S6 Active still has better battery life, almost half the price, and is almost as tough. S6 Active for the win.

          I'm somehow shocked by the battery life. I expected so much better since the S6 active went above 105h with a 3600mah battery.

          This shows how efficient exynos chipsets are. Just compare both the S7 edge varients and you will see.

Ev... morelol for some, screen protectors are a must on every device, i know mine can survive a few scratches and so, but every little scartch adds up so i put the screen protector and even when it has a few scracthes (just a couple visible) there's no need to be replacing them as much as u claim, other thing, air bubbles?? either ur doing it wrong or need some help doing it, stores where u can buy screen protectors put them right infront of u so ur ok with the set up...either way the active is meant to be used outdoors and so, it's more exposed to scratches than normal phones, i really recommend the screen protector for that

                  Anonymous, 30 Jun 2016Very easy fix. Screen protectorIt's not a easy fix.
                  Applying screen protectors and getting a good result is really hard.
                  Even with glass screen protectors you have the issue of dust getting caught.
                  The glass ones also tends to break easily, even the most expensive versions.
                  And it adds thickness if the screen is not recessed. And it does not perfectly match the front. And the cutouts also effects the look.

                  The plastic ones look better when applied in theory, as they dont add as much thickness.
                  They scratch more easily, however, so to keep the look clean you would probably have to replace it more often than a glass one.
                  And they effect the feel of the screen. The glass ones feel much better.
                  And it's near impossible to apply one without getting air bubbles. I've tried myself, but even had products with protectors already applied in the factory and I've never had a device with plastic screen protector without airbubbles. And dirt can still be caught.

                  It also adds extra cost. Especially if you are going for the better ones. And keep replacing them to keep the looks up. And you might have to discard some, if you fail when you are trying to apply them.

                    They never achieve that score again in any of their handset, (with a small battery).

                      Well, Samasung fails to provide a battery battery life/battery optimization.
                      Since S3 and so on... They fail.
                      Either they don't know how to optimize or they are just using the third class batteries.

                          Samsung , success , success , success !!!
                          finally i saw the 4000mah battery in Samsung model , & the video playback is so impressive result upto 20 hours , 12 hours wifi is not bad result , i expect more on 4000mah by Samsung processor.
                          hope the Samsung coming up model will fit in 5000mah , for us really peace of mind from 8am until 11pm.

                            I dont understand why this is still an AT&T exclusive. These days almost everyone have stopped doing it. It definitely can do great if they launch it across all carriers.

                              Unbelievable, is it possible that Samsung had built another rugged phone without a lanyard outlet?

                              So we are supposed to put it in another case in order to have it tied to ourselves when on water?

                              Stupid.
