As per usual Samsung has packed the phone full of technical gimmicks but this time has listened to the customer to remove software clutter and disorder.
I'll believe it when I see it.

No micro SD slot & no removable back for battery replacement.

No thanks.

You'd think they'd have learnt from HTC how dumb a move this was.

No kidding huh!!!!!

It pisses me right the F off that these cellular companies are the very ones that originally speculated cell phone batteries are only good for an AVERAGE of 2 years......then they lose a significant part of their functionality.

I'm okay with no MicroSDHC slot as 32/64/128 GB are good enough for the most part but the no battery replace TRULY MEANS your phone will be virtually useless after the 2nd year. SCAM!!!

Oh and BTW, Verizon's Edge and ATT's Next are scams too. Nothing like being in a perpetual state of payment FOREVER AND EVER on this shit plan. At least with a 2 yr contract, the phone is yours for another viable year afterwards.

Cellular is such a scam now and worse than it was years back when Verizon and ATT were still charging the same old prices of 59.99 for 900 minutes.

I don't think I'll EVER look back on ditching my cell almost 2 years ago. I'm so happy without one and now see first hand how dumb people really are with their phone.......especially teen girls.

This is what you call the snowglobe , the walled garden of hardware!

Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.

I am so glad I opted for the Note 4. No microsd, no removable battery, headphone jack on the bottom, they eliminated the waterproof/dust resistance. Samsung I can almost guarantee you will continue your trend where the S4 was more popular than the S5 and the S5 will be more popular than the S6... I am scared now how bad they will cannibalize the Note 5. I may have bought my last Samsung phone with the Note 4 if this trend continues, very sad. Oh and for modding the in house Samsung processors are not nearly as hackable friendly either. My note 4 barely resembles a factory note 4 and that is how I like it!

Non-removable battery + no SD + non- water-resistant?? Looks like I'll be holding onto my S5 Active for a while, and it will NOT be replaced by an S6, regardless of how pretty it is.

Sadly, I must agree with you. Though I was looking forward to the S6, I now find myself very disappointed.
