With most consumers and analysts feeling as if Samsung did not deliver as expected with the Samsung Galaxy S5, new information suggests that the Korean tech giant may be gearing up for the release of the Samsung Galaxy S6.
Samsung has released its Samsung Galaxy S5 series earlier this year but it has not delivered the killer approach that many expected. If not, it fell short of expectations with Samsung claiming that the company decided to focus on delivering the basic functions that people need from a handset. It also inspired the release of other variants like Samsung Galaxy S5 Active and Galaxy S5 Mini with expectations brewing around a Galaxy S5 Prime Series. According to a reported concept by Air Herald, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S6 flagship may feature a 64-bit Exynos 5433 processor. This will be in the same league as the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 6 with their A7 and A8 infrastructure respectively.
Apple has set the stage for many manufactures with its 64-bit chip and it appears Samsung wants to catch up. According to the concept released by designer Jermaine Smit, the S6's design will border around "curves that matter." The design will include an overall weight of 162 grams with curved screen and slim bezel. Other specs included in the concept are Android 4.5 and 4GB memory. The camera will be around 20MP. There are no clear details about the OS despite it set at Android 4.5. This may change especially with the Android L platform and Google's planned updates.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 still does not have a release date although another Samsung handset will be making an appearance soon. According to Value Walk, the Korean tech giant will be releasing the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 sometime this September after the IFA event. The device will go against Apple's iPhone 6.
