User Agent profile for Samsung Galaxy S6 confirms 2K screen and 64-bit processor?
According to a User Agent Profile said to be for the Samsung Galaxy S6, Sammy's next flagship model will feature a 1440 x 2560 (QHD) display. The model number appears as SM-G920A which could mean that this is the model that AT&T customers will receive. The User Agent profile also shows that the phone will employ a 64-bit processor. With software navigation buttons missing from the profile, it would appear that hardware buttons will return. None of this information is unexpected, and the profile merely confirms earlier leaks.

Just the other day, we passed along the rumor that because of issues surrounding the Snapdragon 810 CPU, only 10% of Samsung's initial production of Galaxy S6 units would be powered by Qualcomm's chip. If true, Samsung's own 64-bit Exynos 7420 chip will power 90% of the units tumbling down the assembly line. Once the issue is resolved, which in this case deals with overheating of the chip, Samsung will start increasing production of Qualcomm powered Galaxy S6 units.

We expect to see a 5.5-inch display on the Galaxy S6 with a pixel density of 534ppi. Back and front-facing cameras weigh in at 16MP and 5MP respectively. For those of you impressed with the rear camera on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, the Galaxy S6 is expected to have the same IM240 camera sensor employed on the camera that adorns its back. 3GB of RAM will be on board and Android 5.0 will be pre-installed.

It will be interesting to see the escalation in the specs race between the Samsung Galaxy S6, the LG G4 and the HTC Hima (M9). And now we have Xiaomi stuffing 4GB of RAM into the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro.


Thanks for the tip!
