Hello all,
It's been 2 years since I've posted on the boards here. Was an Android guy for many many years. Started with the Droid Eris, and moved to the Droid Incredible. I loved the DI and had it for 4 years till it literally died. Being somewhat enamored with the Apple phenomenon I decided to give the iPhone a try. I've had the 5s for 2 years now and ready to move back to Android. iPhone has some nice stuff, but I feel the overall usability of Android is way better.
My wife has the Samsung Galaxy S5 and loves it. My best friend has it too and loves his. I know the S6 is out, but I'm wondering if the 5 is the one to get. I can't believe the S6 went away from the separate battery and SD card concept. I had a second battery for business travel when I had my Incredible. Used it a lot. Not sure how necessary that is with 6. Here's the other thing... I hate phone cases. I never used a cell phone case until I had my iPhone. And the only reason I got one for the iPhone was because it looked so fragile. And so many people have cracked glass on their iPhones. I think the Galaxy S5 is a beautiful devise that doesn't require a case... where the S6 looks more fragile, like the iPhone. Am I wrong?
In the end, I'm leaning towards the S5. But I wanted to post here as I'm sure there are S6 users that have come from the 5 and can speak to which one they feel is better... and more importantly, why?
Thanks in advance.
