Samsung looks set to continue with Galaxy S6

SamMobile states that the hardware
manufacturer is in early stages of development of the
handset, which is allegedly codenamed Project Zero
internally. Citing anonymous sources, the website also
revealed preliminary specs of the handset, which include
a QHD display, 16 or 20 MP camera, 64-bit CPU and
more.
Although there wasn't any mention of a screen size,
SamMobile mentions that the Galaxy S5 would feature a
QHD display, which is unsurprising considering the
trend in screen resolution we've been witnessing over
the last few years. Samsung is said to be debating
whether to use the same 16 MP sensor with OIS that was
introduced with the Galaxy Note 4, or shift to a 20 MP
sensor. At the front, hit looks like the vendor has locked
in on a 5 MP camera.
As for the innards, the Galaxy S6 is reported to feature
the 64-bit Exynos 7420 SoC Samsung launched last
month. Featuring four Cortex A57 cores and four Cortex
A53 cores, the SoC is said to include Samsung's first in-
house modem, the Exynos Modem 333, which offers LTE
connectivity. The manufacturer will still offer a
Qualcomm version, which is said to feature the
Snapdragon 810.
The internal storage gets a mention as well, with
Samsung allegedly looking to offer the device in
32/64/128 GB variants. In terms of connectivity, the
Galaxy S6 is said to include a Broadcom BCM4773 chip
that integrates GPS, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity on
a single chip, which serves to decrease battery drain.
As is always with unconfirmed rumors, we advise you
take the news with the obligatory grain of salt. Seeing
as how there's a lot of time before the Galaxy S6 gets
any sort of official announcement, there is the very real
possibility that the hardware details mentioned above
may turn out to be entirely different from what is actually
included inside the device. That being said, what would
you guys like to see in the Galaxy S6?
