LATEST SMART PHONES WHAT IS THE BEST CHOICE

We many reviews had cited iPhone 6 is the best smart phone in the market. I don't deny it for its specs and design, but been android lover I give the edge to the main flagships like Samsung Galaxy line, HTC and LG to name some of the most notorious.
I moved from the Samsung S4 to the LG G3, for its impressionist specs 32 GB storage, 3 GB RAM , micro SD card, 5.5 inch display, HD screen resolution. I pass on the Samsung S5 been the wonder that is but, I felt I would have more versatility with the LG G3 in which the Android Kit Kat version allows you to have great customization with roms. 


Samsung Galaxy S6 was presented on the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on March 1st, 2015. Its finally a beautiful phone as people had been craving for it. It seems that in the interest to satisfy and compete specifically with Apple, the Samsung flagship look to much like the iPhone 6. Off course the specs are higher but it has lost some the most attractive features like the micro SD card and the waterproof. They say that its the introduction to the cloud world, we need to remember that the cloud can only be used for small files like pictures, videos, document, and music. The cloud providers don't allow you to upload files large files and until the cloud doesn't give free large storage user won't be so  soon. There are a few good choices lately like One Drive from Microsoft which you get up to 200 GB of free storage. Dropbox is very attractive and  useful, because of the great variety of links to other apps, but the problem is the limited storage. I was able to get 50 GB with different referrals and specially one from a business partner.
Going back to the smart phones the Galaxy S6 looks superb, great camera with good performance in dark environment which puts it ahead of the rest. It comes with 3 GB ram the fastest kind of ram in the mobile World. The processor the Exynos 7420 that makes it the fastest. I just hope all this wonder doesn't turn into a failure because the similarity in the design to the iPhone 6. Nowadays you don't know any more who copies who and the legal battles will never end.
Let's wait to what LG and HTC bring with their flagships the LG G4 and the HTC One M9 coming up soon, but let's not forget all new comers from China.
