The Galaxy S6, the successor to technology giant Samsung's Galaxy S5, will be unveiled to the world on March 1 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
Just like the Galaxy S5 and previous devices that preceded it, the internet has already been flooded with rumoured specifications of the next big thing when it comes to mobile devices.

The Galaxy S5 came with an IP67 certification that made it Dust and Water-Resistant, a Fingerprint Scanner [for improved security], and a Heart Rate Sensor [placed near the 16-megapixel camera].
Myjoyonline.com gathers that the Galaxy S5’s successor will be one of Samsung’s best flagship devices to date.
Samsung is tight-lipped on the new features on the Galaxy S6 device but if leaked specifications are anything to go by, the world should expect a ‘monster’ device.

One thing we know for sure is that the Galaxy S6 will run Android 5.0 Lollipop with a new redefined version of TouchWiz which will make the User Interface (UI) smoother and cleaner.
