So far, it is likely that those who have had a look at the Galaxy S6 were divided into two camps: those who love or hate. If the decision to finally go with metal and glass could be a welcome change for some, the sacrifice of a removable battery and a micro SD slot means a pure hatred for others. Finally, the lack of tightness (a key element of S5) does not play in his favor.

Rumors of an Active Galaxy S6 began circulating even before we got our hands on the Galaxy S6 and now a source suggests that the smartphone will be remarkably similar to the Galaxy S6, while including some small additional elements that could be welcome adjustments compared to the flagship model, launched at MWC.
A Reddit user claims to have spoken with a representative on the Samsung Galaxy Active S6, and managed to get some information about the upcoming smartphone from the South Korean firm.
According to the publication, a micro-SD card slot will be included in the Active Galaxy S6 and some new hardware buttons on the front panel. The removable battery will also make his return on the new device, which suggests that the design include a rear shell also removable.
A more robust design
Unlike the Galaxy S6, S6 Active will not happen with a fingerprint sensor located under the home button, much less the heart rate monitor embedded in the back of the smartphone. Moreover, it should also have a photo sensor with a resolution of less than one embedded in the flagship model of the firm.
Of course, these statements should be taken with a grain of salt, but they align with what we had already heard about the new rugged smartphone.
Obviously, and as a reminder, the smartphone should be water resistant and dust , a feature that many regret the Galaxy S6.
