techno 3,511 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Upgrade time is here so I thought I'd see what you guys think, background I've had Samsung phones all the way back to the tocco, last 2 phones have been s2 and s4 I found them both excellent TBH, the s2 did get killed by an upgrade tho. This time I think I fancied something different my wife and a friend have note 4's, and kids have z3 and m8 respectively so not wanting the same I've shortlisted s6 and m9. I know Jason recently went out for an S6 and came back with an m9 because of micro SD cards on m9 but this isn't an issue to me. All reviews point to s6 being better but will I really notice? So anyone got any thoughts about either or hands on experience, jason:) I'd appreciate the input. I basically use YouTube mainly, twitter facebook and obviously web browser.

TigerBurge 2,375 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 HTC M9 especially if you are on YouTube. The speakers are on the front. Great for watching and listening. I like the metal body too.

Jason 1,245 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Honestly if it wasn't for the SD card slot I'd get the s6,I just didn't want to shell out another 100 dollars for the 64gb s6. The s6 speaker is very loud, but the HTC has better, almost surround type, sound. The s6 does win in most categories though, I reviewed the two a lot before I got this phone.

Diddums 4,346 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Have a look here Gary: http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/20-best-mobile-phones-in-the-world-today-645440 For me it'd be the S6, Note 4, Nexus 6 or M9.

Jason 1,245 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I'm probably taking the m9 back tonight, don't care for it and my carrier has a 2 week return policy. It's buggy, battery life kinda sucks, and I have to restart it half the time when I want to play music.

Commander_Undies 618 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I got a Droid Turbo for Christmas. The battery life is amazing. Can go for 2 days and can charge very, very fast. Haven't had any problems with it. I could never go back to a phone that dies in 6 hours.

Diddums 4,346 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I've got a Note 3 and it's hands down the best phone I've ever used. Battery life is on a whole different level. Kyla's got the S5 and it's also great. Also good battery life, but still not a patch on my Note.
