Good looking phone but the lack of micr sd card is a big no for me. If I was buying a normal sized phone I would go for Sony or HTC |

Easily the best looking Galaxy to date but as aussieland1 said no Micro SD card slot would be a biggy for me. Expandable memory is so cheap now and I have a 64GB card in my Z3 with only 8GB spare so I'd need the 128GB version going forward but that would come at a big premium. I can get a 128GB SD card for about £55 online which will be a far cheaper option.
I'm so happy 'cause today

And to add to the above the rrp is not promising at all

The phone would have to be really good ! Still first signs are that Samsung made good efforts with Touchwiz and hopefully the camera will be quote good. It will be interesting to see the reviews |

I am so disappointed. Yes, its a pretty phone, but the battery has been downsized and MicroSD removed. The build materials sound great but they have gone back in terms of no Water or Dust proofing.
I hope the Note 5 doesn't go the same route or I'm done with Samsung.
Phone: iPhone 15 Pro Max Black Ti 512GB
Tablet: iPad Pro 11” 2020 Space Gray 256GB
Watch: Series 3 Nike Edition Space Gray
Droid: Huawei Mate 40 Pro 256GB |

Hopefully Samsung has done some proper testing regarding screen resolution, Exynos chip 14 nm and the battery. If it powers the phone through a day of medium to heavy usage then it is good enough for me. The lack of scdard will according to Samsung make the phone faster and cause less lagging. I have always been a fan of sd-card support but it is no dealbreaker as long as it supports usb-on-the-go.
I really like the designs of the S6 and S6 Edge. OIS, f1,9, wireless charging, better finger scanner, lighter TW, better loudspeaker, 3 G ram, yes please 😊

HTC one m8 had sd card and it is considered one of the smoothest android phone so I don't buy their excuse . I don't dispute that it won't be a big deal for many people - it certainly is for me though and I am hoping note series won't follow the same path (I prefer a slightly thicker phone with sd card )
I agree that the phone is impressive other than that.
My only other criticism is the similarity with iphone 6 (the bottom bit for example). Kinda wish Samsung designed the speaker grill different or made the bottom a bit more distinctive . Still I am sure plenty of people will accuse it if being a copycat
