The camera works in combination with the Gear 360 app on Samsung smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S7 models. A: There is no longer a Micro SD slot in the Galaxy S6. This choice was made to allow the phone to access its own memory very quickly, resulting in a snappier device. The 32GB model comes with 23GB of available storage.
Inside this device you’ll find 32GB of internal storage. There’s no micro-SD card slot, so you’re going to need to be OK with just 32GB on-device. The new design of the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge does not include a micro SD slot, unlike the Galaxy S5 and earlier models. Choose a higher-capacity model That means if you want to expand your storage, the best thing is to buy a model with a higher capacity – 64 or 128GB instead of the standard 32GB model. The Samsung Galaxy S6 has an Internal Memory of 32GB, 64GB or 128GB, it does not have a Memory Card slot.

Samsung Galaxy S6 - user opinions and reviews

Samsung investigated Oreo (8.0) for the S6, but it never got approved and pushed out. So the S6 remains on Nougat. Saying that. There was an update for the S6 family (and the Note 5) back in November, which GSM Arena never reported (c'mon ...

This s6 and Note 5 were the most reliable and smooth Samsung phones (before s8 series and up) that Samsung ever made. Exynos processor was much better than Qualcomm those day and that shows in smooth performance of the phone even after 3...
Our guide to expanding the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge’s internal storage with handy cases and accessories, to carry around loads more movies, music, photos and other media.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Memory
If you’ve run out of space on your Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge – or any other phone that annoyingly lacks a microSD memory card slot – don’t get stressed and delete those hilarious photos of your mate Kev pretend-humping a traffic cone after too many tequilas. Here’s how to add extra memory with simple drives and accessories.
And check out our guide to deleting useless files and freeing up wasted storage space on the S6
Add a microSD memory card using the Incipio offGRID case
Incipio’s clever little offGRID battery case for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge doesn’t just add extra juice to your Galaxy smartphone. A flick of a switch also gives you microSD support, so all you need to do is slot your memory card into the case and you can copy files back and forth from your mobile. The case supports cards of up to 128GB in size.
Alternatively, add a microSD memory card using an OTG/SD card reader
You can also buy memory card readers that slot into your phone’s micro USB slot, adapting them into a microSD card slot. One such example is the iKross Multi-Function Micro-USB to OTG/SD Memory Card Reader Adapter, which can be snagged on Amazon for just £8. Again, just add a microSD memory card and you’re good to go. It’s a bit bulkier and more cumbersome than the Incipio case, but it does the job.
Wirelessly transmit your media with Samsung’s Wireless Mobile Media Streaming Device
If you’ve got a ton of HD movies that you want to take away on holiday, a better solution will be a hard disk that offers wireless streaming to your mobile device. Samsung offers its own in the form of the Wireless Mobile Media Streaming Device, which can be bought for £130 from Amazon.
It’s a 1.5TB drive, which gives you enough space for roughly five hundred Blu-ray movies, and it supports up to five mobile devices at once so the whole family can stream what they want to their phones or tablets. There’s even a USB charging port to power up your Galaxy S6 if it’s running low.
