Support pages for Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge surface

In what can be seen as an official mention of Samsung’s upcoming flagship devices, support pages for the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge have surfaced ahead of its official debut. The South Korean tech company plans to unveil its new lineup ahead of Mobile World Congress in the coming weeks.

The Galaxy S6 (SM-G920X) and S6 Edge (SM-G925X) look to be the real deal. The rumoured specs of both devices are QHD Super AMOLED displays, 64-bit octacore Exynos 7420 processor, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage. They will have a 16-megapixel rear camera that can record 4K video and it’ll run a less intrusive version of TouchWiz on top of Android 5.0 Lollipop. The main difference between the S6 and the S6 Edge is the Edge will get a curved screen to the right side of the screen to show notifications and act as a shortcut launcher, control bar, and navigation bar. We have to wait just a bit more to get confirmation about these two new devices.

Photo leak hints at 5 variants of Samsung Galaxy S6

Rumours have been circulating for a while that there would be more than one version of the Samsung Galaxy S6. But a new alleged leaked photo that CNET Korea got their hands on shows five different variants of Samsung’s upcoming flagship. The one on the far left looks like the traditional look of a Galaxy device; while the one on the far right looks similar to the Galaxy Note Edge. The second one from the right also looks like it has a curved edge screen. The other two devices come with casings. The second one to the left is protected by a Verus cover (a popular case maker in South Korea); while the one in the center seems to have a thicker case but it can’t be told if it’s also made from Verus.

Of course, these are all just rumours at the moment. But if you just wait a bit more, it is said Samsung will be unveiling its newest flagship at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on March 1.

Possible color options for Samsung Galaxy S6 appear

In case you've been planning what color option of the Samsung Galaxy S6 you will get, a tipster seems to have given SamMobile information on the new colors. It would reportedly be available in dark blue, blue-green, gold, and white. There doesn't seem to be a black option though, which is usually a default choice. Now, we just have to wait for MWC to see what the specific shades would be. And if these rumoured color options are spot on.

Samsung tipped to be using own camera module for S6

It looks like Samsung will be parting ways with Sony for its smartphone module, if rumours are to be believed that is. Samsung is reportedly going to use its own module for the 20-megapixel rear camera of its upcoming Galaxy S6 flagship. It will have optical image stabilization as well. We wouldn’t know though if it has the same image quality as the Sony modules, and if the rumour is true. We just have to wait a bit until Mobile World Congress to find out the truth.
