March 1, 2015 18:45 Polish annual hours of time – this is the exact date Samsung has established market debut of its latest flagship product of smartphones. Speech, of course, a whole new generation of Samsung Galaxy S6. Our editors may have already briefly look at two new models of smartphones Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge Galaxy. Same equipment we were interested in that, a platform for software running on it. Under the control which version of Android will be available the new Samsung Galaxy S6? What differences observed between the previous line and the newly-listed Galaxy S5 today new “flagowcami” Samsung? Below the “Picture” not only answers to these questions.
Here in short, “soldiers” words present selected differences in system software layer in both generations of smartphones Samsung Galaxy S5 and S6 Galaxy (including Edge model). Details of the hardware components in the latest Samsung smartphones can be found on the site PCLab. We take care of the software.
Desktop S6 vs S5
Desktop Samsung Galaxy S6 – operating system is, of course, the latest version of Android 5.0.2 Lollipop numbered. Oh, and even a little thing: the resolution of the screen is the latest Samsungach QHD, which is 1440 x 2560 pixels. Thus, the rumors about 4K screen smartphone Samsung proved to be false.
For comparison, the Samsung Galaxy S5 desktop also with Android Lollipop, albeit with a slightly lower numbering 5.0. Galaxy S5 users some time ago given the opportunity to update the system with KitKat (Android 4.4.x) to Lollipop (Android 5.0.x). Normally, as in smartphones by Samsung, a visual interface layer corresponds to the TouchWiz. As you can see in the visual differences are really cosmetic. Of course there is also the issue of screen resolution, which in the case of the Galaxy S5 is lower, it is “only” Full HD (1080×1920 pixels)
Such a curiosity: note the visible animation effect when you move your desktop Android, the edges of the screen, as it were, “bend”. This effect is not only about physical Edge model wypozażonego bent on the side of the banks of the screen, but each model of the Galaxy line S6, which we could use during a short pre-release presentation.
Active edges Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
As we mentioned S6 Edge Galaxy model, such curiosity. Rounded edges of the screen are, of course, the active area. Above example of its use. Pulling the thumb of a thin strip that appears on the rounded edge towards the center of the screen indicating the panel develops eg. For missed calls or messages. That will not find in S5.
Another example of the use of the folded edge. Moving the thumb from the edge to the center panel displays thumbnails of the most important contacts. This is called People glance .
The colors are also not accidental. When the smartphone is face down and have muted the screen, and one of the most important contacts to call us, once we know who, because the folded edge of the screen rozjarzy the color assigned to the individual.
The Galaxy S6 Edge settings you can choose what type of action will generate a notification light on the most important contacts.
The selection panel for the user the most important people of the ability to assign each of the five relatives of the appropriate color.
The folded edge of the screen in the Galaxy S6 Edge can display information (eg. from RSS feeds or alerts) even when the main screen is turned off. Of course, you can choose which side of the screen folded this information to be presented.
Notifications S6 vs S5
In the above illustration expanded panel with shortcuts / switch functions smartphone and the notifications panel. What is new is the ability to edit the switches directly from this view.
As you can see the same screen in the Samsung Galaxy S5 the Edit no. On the other hand, the S6 is removed to allow the icon to display all available shortcuts panel switches. Features partially took over the said inscription Edit .
Camera and camcorder – possibilities and application interface – S6 vs S5
The Samsung Galaxy S6 allows perform up to 20-megapixel photos.
In the case of the Samsung Galaxy S5 maximum resolution for digital photos is 16 megapixels.
If you set the video size has such large differences do not exist, both the latest Galaxy S6, as well as the previous generation – Galaxy S5 – capable of recording video in ultra-high resolution UHD. However, in S6 observed two additional modes for QHD resolution video and can record video Full HD at 60 frames per second.
For comparison, a similar video resolution settings Samsung Galaxy S5. UHD is, but qHD or Full HD with 60 frames per second is – not anymore.
The application interface in the latest Samsung photographic S6 we think it’s a little step back. In theory, nothing is missing, but the panel function icons displayed on the left side of the screen is not as easily editable as in the case of the Galaxy S5. You can not for example. Hold the icon and move it to another location.
A similar application interface photographic Galaxy S5 – easily modifiable and clearer icons. In our view, the camera uses S5 easier than in S6. The S6 wins a higher resolution photos and additional modes of video recording.
Services, settings, and memory management
This screen shows the settings in the latest Samsung Galaxy S6. Again, the Korean manufacturer has chosen to slight changes in both visual and logic of the respective component.
For comparison, this is what the default screen layout settings in the previous generation of the device: Samsung smartphone Galaxy S5.
This panel presents a system service running in the latest Samsung Galaxy S6.
And this is what the panel analogous services Samsung Galaxy S5. Korean manufacturer decided to increase the RAM in newer models up to 3 GB (S5 has 2 GB of RAM). From the interface, also in this case we can see cosmetic changes. I do not quite understand what was the purpose of the redesign of the Settings screens. Apparently it is similar, but a little different, which forces users to change small habits. In our opinion, nothing would have happened if this type of odds and ends left unchanged.
In short, as long as we liked to use (from the interface and software) capabilities curved edge of the screen in the model Samsung Galaxy S6, whereas in the rest of the issue of visual differences between the two generations are relatively few, and they are rather cosmetic. Sometimes if changes were made to the force in the case of an application for taking pictures and recording video, the functionality of the current edition of the Galaxy S5 loved just more than the Galaxy S6. Of course, keep in mind that we are dealing with a prototype copies of the Galaxy S6 and the following system software updates may arise (and certainly they appear) brand new features. And how your mind? You like the Samsung Galaxy S6? Let me know in the comments.
