Rumor has it that Samsung Galaxy S6 will be unveiled in March or April of next year, 2015. Sources came to this conclusion after noticing a pattern in Samsung's previous release dates; the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy S5 launched around the same time.

The newest Android phone offering from Samsung is anticipated to compete neck to neck with Apple's iPhone 6. First off, Galaxy S6 is highly likely to be the first Android device produced by Samsung to deviate from the usual plastic casing. According to expert reviews, the goal is to produce a premium and metal design that would complement a myriad of high-end specifications for the product.

Moreover, Galaxy S6 is expected to boast a powerful 2.5 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 or 801 chipset that is going to be the first of its kind amongst all other Android phones. With this built-in processor, users can take advantage of 30 percent more efficient performance and longer battery life. Interestingly, Galaxy S6 will also be running on Android 6.0, the biggest Google-powered operating system so far.

This phone also matches LG's flagship phone with a Quad HD (1440 x 2560) Super AMOLED screen resolution. The camera will either be a 16-megapixel or 20-megapixel shooter capable of adjusting to low light.

Although the Korea-based manufacturer has not yet confirmed the exact release date, with the Mobile Word Congress happening on February 2015, it is very likely that Galaxy S6 is not far off on the horizon. Galaxy S6 is Samsung's next big promise to its consumers after Galaxy S5 did not make a huge impact as compared to the early models of high-end Galaxy units.

Tom Kang, analyst at Counterpoint explained, "They made one mistake, one product that didn't hold up to expectations and they are paying the price. They will have to move forward and leave behind what has failed and focus on the next product."
