This could be the biggest Galaxy S6 leak yet: Phone glimpsed in the flesh (more pictures)
We’ve treated you to numerous leaks around the Galaxy S6 (and its Edge counterpart) through the past few months, but what we have in hand today looks like the most comprehensive (and in a way, authentic) leak yet. The phone has allegedly been glimpsed in the flesh, hidden beneath a layer of bubble wrap. With just four days to go for the launched of the fabled device, it seems as though a Samsung employee or someone close to the sources decided to get naughty and post a few pictures of the device.
What’s interesting is that the photos are pretty much in agreement with what we saw from the (infamous?) toilet leaks a few days back. Also something that’s worth taking note of is the larger, rounder home button. There had been rumors about the home button being that way, but this picture puts and end to the same once and for all.
What’s more, the design and the overall chassis, including the front camera sensor, seems to be in concurrence with the case designs that leaked at numerous times. Has Samsung failed at keeping its cards close to its chest? Do let us know what you think… and be sure to check out our Galaxy S6 rumor roundup!
Update: A new picture has been leaked, it shows the S6 packing a 5-inch display.

It has to be a test model. The Galaxy S6 better not look like an iPhone.
Theres no way in the world this is the real thing, seriously cmon havent you seen the teaser images, looks nothing like it. The teaser is very thin, even the edge prototype looks nothing like the teaser, take these pics with a grain of salt guys! And to be honest it looks pretty ugly, i do hope this is not the real deal, dont let us down Samsung 🙁
Is anyone bummed that the screen size is 5″? I was hoping for a slightly larger screen but I guess the reduced battery size that has been rumoured would make it difficult for the battery to run as long as we would expect it to with a larger screen. Notice the larger home button too. Will that work more effectively? What do you guys think?
Aww i think this is not legit, 2 scenarios: 1. it’s another attempt from Samsung to disappoint us by pushing us yelling and insulting its next product in order to wow us with something completely beautiful and gorgeous and then boost the sales over the world 2. It’s just a fake render made by a Chinese manufacturer Personally I don’t believe this is the next Galaxy S6 why: 1. it lacks the logo on the back and on the front by accident there is a bar code sticker just where we should have been seeing the logo Samsung (come on… Read more »
i agree, these pics arent the real deal 🙂
No expandable storage??? NOOOOO….!!!!
If this is really it – “Me no like !”
I feel failure if this is true. I think official teaser image is just the side of curved screen not total case.
What does everyone think? Is that a unibody design?
That actually doesn’t look like a Ip6 clone as much, it just looks like a Galaxy phone which is a good thing…however I don’t see a MicroSD tray, I see the Sim card port but no MicroSD, so unless both are integrated into one tray, it looks like no storage expansion and if that’s the case no S6 for me.
It’s 100% not the final design due to the home key size and so on this as 100% been changed, this is just the dev phone for networks to test it out, it’s got all the main cpu and so on inside but the outside will change that’s 100% due to the home key
Have u guys ever thought about the fact that Samsung might actually be the one dumping these pictures on the Internet so as to make us think that’s what it looks like? I mean what if they are just trying to decieve us by posting this pictures and then suprise us on march 1st..uhn? ….but as for me I’m guessing this one’s a prototype

Look at the side photo. Looks nothing like the s6 teaser from their twitter
The teaser is of the S6 Edge.
One problem I can forsee.
Microphone and speaker next to each other??
Feedback city.
That bottom speaker is a woofer and it’s not even running in portrait mode unless you force it. On front you have two four hole speakers for Stereo (and software surround) for Landscape mode. But in portrait mode with a sensor, you are only hearing out of the typical Samsung earset grill in center/top above screen! So naturally they know more than you do about designing phones. Being the fact that you are most likely just another consumer like me! ………and with that mic down by the subwoofer on the bottom only in use, with phone is in Landscape mode… Read more »
LoL no sd slot. Perfect it seems that Samsung becomes I-Samsung. Buy another 32MB for extra 200 bucks. Nice
You mean Gb, right?
Sure:)
I think you’re wrong, but we will soon see…. won’t we? 😀 Look at the sim slot? It’s too big to be just for a micro sim or whatever. It’s the size of a SD Card too. It’s a dual slot for both sim and SD card is my guess!
No that one must be a prototype…. not a demo. Because in Germany they are all talking about it having a glass back. It seems it would be over an Aluminum Alloy mid frame. Like in Galaxy Note 4 and Alpha! …..but this is more than likely some kind of composite glass. Maybe even coated with graphene. We can’t be sure about that yet. It also looks like they moved the Samsung logo on the back down to the center of the back of the phone. Some are saying that the Samsung Logo Lights up on the back, so as… Read more »
Now that’s a “Thing”….
Yeah it’s Samsung spelled out across the back in Gold Trimmed blue lights and is slightly raised like the camera. So it gives your back greater protection from scratching, with the S A M S U N G strung nearly 3/4’s of the way centered in the middle of the back instead of the upper part like usual. It’s being said in EU that with that back trim, it acts like a tripod, holding the phone up off the surface on it’s back. Then you have the benefits of the Stereo (surround) speakers with subwoofer at bottom. Because bass is… Read more »
no way

Obviously that’s the SKU Bar Code sticker! 😀 Why would they SKU a prototype or one of a kind test model? Demo Model for carriers? YES! …..absolutely, but that would for sure be the same as an off the shelf item anyway. So no doubt carriers all over the World will have already gotten a demo to check out on their cellular signal to see how a production model performs. I’m betting that this is exactly that! Also look at the front. Why are there four small holes to the right of the camera? What could they be? Well I… Read more »
fired fired fired
“Obviously a prototype or test model”
That’s the statement from the guy he took the photo so this is not going to be the real deal…
