Sorry for the long post just trying to get some information so i can make a decision and not have to go through the hassle of returning anything
I currently have the HTC M8 and generally i am happy with it except mainly the camera, which is very important to me i havnt been happy with it since day one but ive been using it for over a year till i found something better my main issue with it is that it overexposes light which for me is a big negative since i often go to events that i want to take pics at that have all sorts of lighting rigs.
My girlfriend has the S5 the issues i have with that particular phone are as follows, to me the colors always seemed off compared to the M8 it didnt seem natural reds in particular always through me off i believe it was over saturated and another thing i noticed on her phone that every time she gets a text notification the screen turns on to me that is a very annoying feature and i dont see anywhere to shut this off. I also never liked the plastic on Samsung phones.
So now with the S6 getting a makeover in terms of build quality im interested again in looking at that as a replacement for my M8, ive heard nothing but good things about the camera i assume it doesnt overexpose light like the M8 but my other questions relate to the screen colors I always have a hard time judging in a store if the colors are off because i never noticed in on the S5 till it was in my house and in daily use, so im wondering if the S6 has better screen colors? Does it have the screen turn on with notifications?
Also I have heard mixed things about the battery life, right now on my M8 im happy with the battery i get average screen on time of around 6 hours and get anywhere from 14-16 hours in total of battery life if the S6 can match this or better than it should be fine.
And lastly is there any major bugs right now or any notable problems that are waiting updates
