Does anyone else have this issue?
OK, so I have had an iPhone 6 so I have had a chance to use Touch ID on an iPhone and it works flawlessly. Even if you don't want to use Touch ID on an iPhone you can still use your 4 digit PIN. The Galaxy S6's Touch ID is always saying "No Match." Sometimes my fingerprint works but the majority of the time it doesn't. I followed the directions and put it in right but it's just garbage. Then as if that isn't annoying enough when using the Galaxy S6's Touch ID if you don't get it right you have to put in a password, not a 4 digit pin which would've been easier a password which I think has to be a minimum of 5 characters and a number/special character. So that's pretty annoying. I just took the security off my phone, but I am not going to lie when I had my iPhone I got used to having the Touch ID as my security and it was nice!
Another huge issue I have with this phone is that it has 3GB of RAM and it runs at like70-90% of RAM used all the time. So this thing is a RAM hog. The good news is that I have already rooted my Galaxy S6 so when custom ROMs come out that should take care of the RAM issues, but the bad news is that there are no custom recoveries or custom ROMs available for it yet so I am awaiting that anxiously. Hopefully a stock based custom ROM cause I do like a lot of the features but it is too bloated. The only time a droid is better than an iPhone is a rooted droid with good custom ROMs available for it.
Other than that the phone is good. Camera was a little hyped up. I find it to be right on PAR with the iPhone's. Depending on lighting sometimes it takes better pictures than the iPhone sometimes it doesn't. The display is nice but really on a phone anything over a 1080p is overkill. Multitasking with Windows is cool. I wish they integrated S-Voice into a button push but you still have to press the app or say your command which is a hit or miss. It's a good phone, come on custom recoveries and custom roms!!!!
