Galaxy S6

The device in the real world.

Product Overview

The Samsung Galaxy S6 marks a significant evolution from its predecessor, the Galaxy S5, introducing a host of improvements in design, performance, and features that enhance the overall user experience.One of the most notable changes is in the design. The Galaxy S6 discards the plastic body of the S5 for a sleek, premium look with a glass front and back, surrounded by a sturdy aluminum frame. This change not only gives the device a more modern aesthetic but also improves durability and feels more luxurious in hand.Display enhancements are another major change. The Galaxy S6 features a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels, providing stunning visuals and vibrant colors, a significant upgrade over the S5's 1080p display. This results in sharper images and an overall improved viewing experience, making it ideal for media consumption and gaming.Performance under the hood sees a major boost as well. The Galaxy S6 is powered by the Exynos 7420 processor, coupled with 3GB of RAM, delivering faster performance and improved energy efficiency compared to the S5's Snapdragon 801 processor. This combination allows for seamless multitasking and quick app launches, providing a smoother user experience.Camera technology receives significant upgrades too. The Galaxy S6 boasts a 16 MP rear camera with optical image stabilization, improving low-light performance and reducing motion blur during photos. The front-facing camera is equally impressive, with a 5 MP sensor that captures better selfies and supports HDR mode. Overall, users can expect higher-quality photos and videos from the Galaxy S6.Battery capacity has been re-evaluated, offering a non-removable 2550 mAh battery compared to the S5's removable 2800 mAh battery. While the capacity is slightly lower, the combination of the efficient processor and software optimizations results in effective power management, providing a full day of use under regular conditions. Additionally, the Galaxy S6 introduces fast charging capabilities, allowing users to recharge their devices in a fraction of the time.Another significant change is in storage options. The Galaxy S6 comes with choices of 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB of internal storage, but notably, it no longer supports microSD expansion, which could be a drawback for users who prefer expandable memory.Lastly, the Galaxy S6 introduces wireless charging capabilities, supporting both Qi and PMA standards, making it easier to charge the device without the need for cables, a convenience feature that enhances the overall usability of the smartphone.In summary, the Samsung Galaxy S6 represents a major upgrade over the Galaxy S5, featuring a premium design, enhanced display, powerful performance, improved camera capabilities, fast charging, and the convenience of wireless charging, even as it forgoes expandable storage. These advancements make it a compelling choice for those seeking a high-end smartphone experience.

How to prepare to sell your Galaxy S6

Selling your Galaxy S6 can be a great way to earn extra cash while ensuring your device gets a second life. To maximize your resale value and ensure a smooth transaction, follow this step-by-step guide.

Step 1: Determine your Galaxy S6’s Functionality & Condition

Grab your Galaxy S6 and determine which Eco Toreda Condition Standard best describes it.

  • Screen & Body: Look for scratches, dents, cracks, or discoloration.
  • Buttons & Ports: Test all buttons, charging ports, and any other connectors.
  • Battery Health: In general, a battery with 80% or more battery charging capacity is considered Good. If yours is less than 80%, choose Poor Battery.
  • Performance: Ensure your Galaxy S6 powers on, responds correctly, and connects to Wi-Fi/Bluetooth.
  • Accessories: Grab the original Galaxy S6 accessories (charger, power cable) are available and functional.
Step 2: Remove Personal Data from Your Device

Before handing over your Galaxy S6, erase all personal data to protect your privacy. Follow these general steps:

  1. Back Up Your Data: Use cloud storage or a computer to save important files, contacts, and photos.
  2. Sign Out of Accounts: Deactivate any connected accounts (e.g., Apple ID, Google, Samsung, Microsoft) to prevent activation locks.
  3. Factory Reset your Galaxy S6: Navigate to the settings menu and select “Reset” or “Erase All Content.” Ensure the process is complete before shutting down the device.
  4. Remove External Storage (If Applicable): Take out SD cards or SIM cards before packaging.
Step 3: What to Bring

We'll pack and ship your Galaxy S6 for you but remember to bring the following items:

  • Power Cable & Charger: The original Galaxy S6 adapter and cable add value and make the device more appealing.
  • Original Box & Packaging (If Available): Providing the original box improves presentation and protection.
  • Accessories: Include any extras that came with the Galaxy S6, such as a stylus, dock, or protective case.
Step 4: Final Touches Before Selling

A clean and well-presented device makes a big difference. Take the time to do the following:

  • Remove Stickers & Decals: Any personal markings or stickers should be peeled off carefully.
  • Clean the Device: Wipe down the screen and body with a microfiber cloth and an alcohol-based cleaner.
  • Check All Ports: Inspect charging, audio, and other ports to ensure they’re free of dust and debris.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure a smooth selling process while maximizing the value of your Galaxy S6. Happy selling!
