First taste of marshmallow Galaxy S6 Edge upgrade Android 6.0 experience

Seeing Google A new version of Android will be released soon, and many manufacturers have not upgraded Android 6.0 Samsung finally couldn't resist its flagship product in January Galaxy S6 The series is adapted to the new system. How does this "marshmallow" taste?

 

Galaxy S6/S6 Edge's new system based on Android 6.0 has not been officially pushed, only applicable to“ Galaxy Beta Program ”, so the experience system is still in Internal test stage . What we experience is the Hong Kong version Galaxy S6 Edge(SM-G9250) The firmware of the domestic beta version of the Bank of China is used. The Hong Kong version and the Galaxy S6 Edge of the Bank of China are all used in firmware.


After brushing the new system, when we went into the launcher, we found that its overall style did not change much. The setting of removing the secondary menu from the previous system of the Bank of China has also been officially cancelled (in Android 5.1.1 system, you can set whether the secondary menu is displayed or not), which seems to have a feeling of "getting lost". The system is based on Android 6.0.1, which is still our familiar Samsung TouchWiz style. The system version is G9250ZCU2ZPA3.

 

The system is based on Android 6.0 (namely Android M, code name Marshmallow), and the eggs and small games of Android 6.0 remain.

 

The overall style of the drop-down list has not changed, but the color has changed to gray with blue. There are five shortcut switches by default. You can find more switches by sliding to the left. Another improvement is that all shortcut switches can be displayed by double pull-down, and the shortcut of S search is removed, leaving only the quick connection.

 

The icon of the launcher can be set to 4 * 4, 4 * 5 and 5 * 5 by itself, but the setting of the secondary menu is removed. The author personally believes that this is the right approach. After all, the secondary menu is a symbol of Android.

 

For the Galaxy S6 Edge, the side screen tool has been greatly improved. The area of the toolbar has been greatly increased, making it easier to touch. It supports two columns of application settings, and adds quick tools such as compass, scale, flashlight, etc.

 

After upgrading the new system, the Galaxy S6 Edge's side screen panel has been greatly enhanced, with more functions. The panel can also choose its own transparency and font size.

 

For the Galaxy S6/S6 Edge, it is estimated that the camera improvement will enable major users to wait until the flowers have withered. Although the Galaxy S6 series and Galaxy Note5/S6 edge+both use 16 million pixel cameras, F1.9 aperture+optical anti shake, Samsung was very "eccentric" before the photography software was upgraded to Android 6.0, and the Galaxy S6 series is significantly weaker. However, after the upgrade, the Galaxy S6/S6 Edge finally supports the adjustment of the shutter speed. The ISO can also be adjusted to 50 at the minimum, which is at least equal to the Galaxy Note5/S6 edge+in function.

 

The file manager remains basically unchanged, but the system gives some simple instructions on the contents of the folder, which is more suitable for some new users. Application management has changed the way of sliding left and right in the past. You need to click the menu in the upper right corner to switch functions, which also increases the learning cost if slightly unchanged.

 

Fast charging can be said to be an essential function of high-end mobile phones, but it will also bring high heat. After the system is upgraded, the Galaxy S6 Edge supports the switch of fast charging function. In the icon display of the launcher, the option of setting the background is added to meet some users with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

 

However, the new system of Galaxy S6 Edge also continues a "stubborn disease" of native Android 6.0. When we use USB to connect to the computer, we need to manually set it to MTP mode to transfer data to the computer normally. The next time we connect the computer, we will find that we still need to manually set it to MTP mode. The default is charging mode, even if we set it in the developer option in advance.

 

From the experience of Android 6.0 system of Galaxy S6 Edge this time, it has certain enhancement in system functions and interaction, especially the improvement in camera, so S6 and S6 Edge finally have the strength to challenge Note5. In addition, the overall smoothness of the new system has improved to a certain extent, and many new excessive animations have also been added, which is a relatively successful version upgrade in general.
