The Samsung Galaxy S6 is one of the most highly-anticipated smartphones of 2015 and more details about the handset have now surfaced online.
Rumors regarding the next-generation flagship smartphone from Samsung have been making rounds for a good while now, and various leaks and reports have tried to paint a picture of what to expect. The Samsung Galaxy S6 is expected to make its debut at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015 in early March, and anticipation keeps building up ahead of the big unveiling.
A popular case maker has now tipped the design of the purported Galaxy S6, listing a number of cases online ahead of the handset's formal debut. More specifically, case maker Spigen has now listed four Galaxy S6 cases on Amazon, offering hints about the smartphone's final design. It's worth pointing out that Spigen is notorious for leaking cases of yet-to-be-announced devices, as it has previously done so with the LG G3, the HTC One M8, the iPhone 6, and others.
The complete design of the smartphone is not very clear because it appears in protective cases, but it does reveal some intriguing details. First of all, if these renders turn out to be accurate, the next-generation Galaxy flagship may look very similar to the Galaxy S5, albeit it does relocate the flash and sensor module on the rear. Earlier rumors, meanwhile, indicated that Samsung has gone back to the drawing board for its Galaxy S6, especially since the current Galaxy S5 received criticism for not being innovative and not marking a big enough change from its predecessor.
The newly-surfaced concept cases show part of the front panel of the purported Galaxy S6, as well as the smartphone's back panel. According to these images, the rear camera has the dual-LED flash placed on the right side of the device, not below the camera as found on the current Galaxy S5.
While these cases offer a few clues regarding how the Galaxy S6 may look like when it's ready for prime time, there's no guarantee that they show the real design of the smartphone. It all remains unconfirmed for now, so a hefty grain of salt is advised.
