Samsung Galaxy S6 vs HTC One M9: Which One is For You

The Wait is Finally Over, The Two Much Anticipated and Much Hyped Flagships Are Here. But How Well Do They Stack Up Against Each Other?  Samsung Need to Show a Difference and to Make Big Slash in The Market to Sustain The Race, One The Other Side HTC Need to Overcome The Shortcomings of One M8. Both Samsung and HTC Thrown Everything They Can at These Phones, But Do They Take a Leave a Lasting Impression? Let's Find Out.

Design: 

HTC One M9 Design Look A Lot Similar to Last Years One M8, At Least From A Distance, The Full Metal Uni Body Construction Which Worked Very Well Last Year is Being Used Again, But This Time Shotter and Fatter, On The Rear Except The Camera Design Nothing is Being Tweaked Much. The Top Mounted Power Button Has Moved to Right Side and Ultra-Pixel Camera Has Been Shifted to Front and on Rear There is 20mega-pixel Camera With no IOS (Don't know why this isn't a priority to HTC) The Over All Construction of M9 Looks Solid and Sustaining Some of The   Design Elements of M8 Was Good Move.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Retains The Aesthatic Samsung Look, But Galaxy S6 Has No Plastic Anywhere. The Front and Back Are Both Glass Protected By The Corning Gorilla Glass 4 With Aluminum Frame No More Chrome Plastic Construction This Time. On The Front its Physical Home Button, Back and Multi Tasking Buttons, Finger Print Reader is Now Touch Sensor Rather Than Swipe Based. Good Job Slimming Down The Thick Bezels Seen on GS5. Though There we Here an Argument From Some, Galaxy S6 Resembles The Design of iPhone 6 and 6+ We Think Samsung Did What Has to Be Done.

With Some Short Comings Like Non Removable Back, in GS6 Has No Memory Card Slot Both The Companies Did a Good Job in Constucting Their Flagships.But One M9 Feels A Lot Similar Like Last Years One M8. Samsung Showed Lot Changed a Lot To Catch Up The Race.

Display:

Both These Flagships Sport Similar Screen Sizes, But Different Display Technologies. On One Hand Galaxy S6 Sports 5.1 inches Full HD AMOLED Display With 1440*2560 Resolution, HTC One M9 Sports 5 inches Full HD 1080p Display With 1080*1920p Resolution. When Compared Each Other Samsung Might Be Having an Upper Hand.

Galaxy S6 Has One of Best and Beautiful Display Quality, Although Not Much of a Difference is Seen Between These Two, But it's How The Screens Look in Reality That Really Matters, Rather Than How the Specifications Look on Paper. For Now All We Have is First Glance of Smartphones and it's Too Soon to Judge M9. Let's Wait for The Final Review and Come to a Conclusion.

Power:
HTC One M9 is Powered By Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 64 bit Octa-Core Processor Combined With 3GB Ram, Enough Said M9 is Powered By Greatest and Latest of Mobile Chip Available Right Now, Which is More Than Enough to Play or Run Anything we Throw at It. Now With S6 it is Powered By Samsung's Own 64 bit Octa-Core Exynos 7420 Processor (yet to be confirmed) Coupled With 3GB Ram Which Sounds Equally Powerful or Might Be More. Finally a Good News for Touchwiz Haters, Samsung Has Finally Cut Down Most of The Bloatware Apps Leaving you to Enjoy All Features of Lollipop Without Distraction. M9 Also Runs on Andorid 5.0 With Sense 7.0 UI on Top Which is Cooler Than Before With Clever Contextual Widget Arrangement and Rearrange Your Apps Depending on Your Location.

Camera:

HTC Shifted The 4mega-pixel Ulta Pixel Camera to The Front This Time and Slapped a Heavey 20mega-pixel Sony Made Sensor on The Back, and Galaxy S6 Packs 16mega-pixel Camera, From Our Early Impressions S6 Showed a Slight Edge, Though M9 Camera Performce Good it Stuggles a Lot in Low Light Conditions and HTC Also Mentioned That Will Be Fixed Soon. For Now Galaxy S6 Made a First Good Impression.

Battery:
HTC One M9 Sports 2,800mAh Battery a Solid Upgrade From 2,600. HTC Did a Pretty Good Job Last Year and we Expect The Same This Year as Well. Galaxy S6 Sports a 2,550mAh Battery Down From 2,800mAh on Galaxy S5 But Before Judging By Numbers We Will Have to Wait For The Final Testing and Results.

Final Verdict:
Both These Smartphone Stack up To Great Specifications, Well Atleast on Paper For Now But We Expect Them To Be True at The Same Time. Apart From Display Resolution There is Not Much to Differentiate These Two Flagships. Lets Wait For Final Review before Coming to a Conclusion.
