If they want to say a bold step to fight the next iPhone is them just releasing it earlier (which btw this was planned much further back then it was announced) I want to point out it was much more bold of them to basically make the note 5 a damn iphone... no removable battery, no microsd slots.

Why not? They already did it with the Galaxy S6. Eventually mobile phones will like exactly the same aside for the logo slapped on it.

Well it was weird as the S5 had done the same, but that was to make it waterproof. I think the reason Samsung is doing it is so they can be more like Apple and they think that this will grab more of the iPhone crowd. It's pretty scary how out of touch they are right now.

I have been a big fan of Samsung since the s2. That being said when the s6 came out I got one. I was pretty dissatisfied with the phone. They no longer let you take the battery out of the phone. Also they do not let you add external storage anymore. Another feature that bothers me is not being able to talk on the phone and use data at the same time. Hopefully this will be different because as it stands the s6 is an iPhone with android os.

I'm confused. Is the bold step changing the release date? Or does it actually have something to do with the actual phone?

I've been a Samsung customer since the s3, and I won't be continuing being a customer. They took away my microSD capabilities, as well as a removable battery... For what? A little more sleekness? Fuck that shit. I want my expandable storage and a replacement battery.
