The Samsung Galaxy S6's launch date has finally been confirmed. Samsung has sent out invites for the next Samsung Unpacked event, to be held on March 1, two days before the Mobile World Congress 2015 begins. The Samsung Unpacked event held before the MWC is usually where the company launches its flagship smartphone for the year.
The Galaxy S6 is expected to come out alongside an Edge variant. Unlike the Galaxy Note Edge though, the S6 Edge is rumoured to have two edge screens. The devices will also have 2K displays along with Samsung’s newly announced octa-core 64-bit Exynos 7 SoC. The company has supposedly dropped the Snapdragon 810 from its flagship devices this time.
According to reports, the Galaxy S6 will be the biggest change in Samsung smartphones in a long time. The company has reportedly designed the S6 ‘from scratch’, adopting new design philosophies and incorporating metal into the design. Recent rumours suggest that the Galaxy S6 may even be an iPhone 6 look alike.
Either way, we’re going to get to know pretty soon. The event is scheduled for 6.35pm CET (1 AM IST) on March 1.
