6: Dates

Worldwide, the launch of Samsung Galaxy S6 e s6 edge is marked for April 10 Day. Unfortunately, the “special time zone” that delays the news here will also affect the debut of the new Koreans. At least we won't have to wait long: the Samsung will officially launch both models on April 14 Day, with the opening of pre-sales in the sequence and beginning in retail still in April, probably from the Day 25.

5: Price

Speaking of sales, there are still many rumors about the price of the models. As tops of the line quoted to be considered the best of the year, the estimated values ​​for the S6 e s6 edge they are not cheap at all. In the US, versions should start with prices starting at US$ 650, which would give around R$ 2 thousand reais with the exchange rate affected.

Here, the new models must start at values ​​above R$ 3 thousand reais, according to market expectations. That's because, out there, the Galaxy S6 e s6 edge will be sold in the same price range as iPhone 6 or above, which start at R$3.200 here. Currently, this is the forecast:

• Galaxy S6 32GB: BRL 3.299;

That is, it is good to prepare your pocket if you want to be one of the first to have one of these models.

4: Versions

Prices vary a lot depending on the versions, and we should not have them all available in Brazilian lands, unfortunately. Out there we have 32GB, 64GB and 128GB versions, both for the S6 as for the s6 edge. But it's also unlikely that we'll just stick with the two options presented above (6GB S32 and 6GB S64 Edge), despite some taking this for granted. At the website da Samsung Brazil, you can configure the S6 only with 32 GB, and the s6 edge with 32 and 64 GB. As a basis of comparison, the rival of Apple received all versions of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with 16 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB, in Brazil.

3: Colors

Less important than storage, but also relevant to the end buyer and the price, are the colors available. Also on the page Samsung Brazil, S6 and s6 edge will be available in Pearl White, platinum gold e sapphire black. It is possible that later we will have the colors blue topaz protocols for S6 e emerald green protocols for S6 edge, as in some countries abroad.

2: Operators

Something that makes the device more accessible is the operator contract. In the US, the values ​​drop from the announced US$ 650 to up to US$ 199. No Brazilian operator is advertising the model, but the TIM Italy already have one Dedicated page for Galaxy S6.

1: Production

A local curiosity is that the Samsung Galaxy S6 and s6 edge must be produced in the country, which would not justify the price. THE Samsung has plants in Campinas (SP) and in the Free Zone of Manaus (AM) but, despite this, the models are top of the line and should compete with the iPhone 6 at all points – including the salty taste.
