Samsung Galaxy S6

So tired of seeing this BS advertising from Samsung. I don't have a S6, but I am pretty darn sure 10 minutes on the wireless charging pad (as depicted in the pic) will never ever give 4hrs of use!! Maybe, just maybe if you plugged the phone directly into the quick charger.....

The wording doesn't directly refer to the wireless charger - although the picture does allude to it...

When I've seen this 10 minutes for 4 hours mentioned it is referring to the wall charger.

Yes, I know. The majority of us on this forum will know that. The other 90% of the buying public will put the 2 together but end up very disappointed when they use the product and discover the wireless charger does not come close to that charging performance.

Agree with you... We would see it as with the wireless charger than the wall charger although it isn't.

They will defend themselves saying they didn't specifically mention the wireless charger and that it says UP TO 4 hours
 
I hardly use the wireless charger. I don't charge my phone overnight. Plug it in for a quick topup in the morning and I'm ready to go.

My phone is on charge every night - but I find the wireless charger a bit fiddly to use.

I have now taken it to work and use it if my phone needs a topup during the day.
 
Let's take them to the advertisement comity thing. I'd like to win

What does it cost?
 
Hiya. Just got my S6 Edge today and very happy with it. Just one major pain: I waited for the S6 specifically due to it supporting the Telkom LTE network and now all I get is HSDPA+.

Anyone know how I get LTE on the S6 Edge using the Telkom Mobile network?
Do I need to get a sim swap for a nano bluefish sim? Do you even get bluefish in a Nano sim? Will appreciate your advise.

LTE does not work yet on the S6 on TM

and what the hell is a bluefish??
 
Well. When I got my Huawei LTE router the standard Telkom mobile sim did not allow me to connect at LTE speeds. Eventually got a bluefish sim from TM which resolved the issue. Quaks like a normal sim but is apparently a bluefish sim.

Okay thanks, never heard of it before but with regards to LTE on the S6 with TM.....the phone is not supported as yet for their LTE network

Firmware update should fix that - not sure of ETA though
