Total redesign: all Galaxy S6 concept renders, frames and prototypes that are fit to print

Samsung’s head of IR, Rober Yi, said during an earnings call that the company will be releasing an “innovative premium handset” with a “special function”. In fact, Mr Yi indirectly confirmed the copious usage of quality materials for the S6 shell by reassuring investors that Samsung won't have any issues producing a metal chassis in large quantities, both internally, or from third-party suppliers.

Say hi to premium! The Galaxy S6 has been tipped by various sources to come with a lot less plastic, and a lot more metal and glass for its chassis. Indeed, judging from leaked frames, the flagship is expected to employ much more metal in its build than the S5, and even the Note 4 or Samsung's new A-series. Unfortunately, the latest leak pegs it as having a sealed unibody with a non-replaceable battery, too. Fret not, though, as the battery is said to employ a brand new polymer technology that makes it cooler and more compact for the same capacity, so we can expect it to last a long time, and allow for a slimmer handset, all while preserving an excellent endurance rating.

How exactly will it look like? Well, a polished look has been created out of various leaked schemes tips and prototypes in the form of concept renders, all of which we are rounding up below. Take a gander, and tell us what you think. The new metal chassis paradigm is now expected to shift to Samsung's midrangers as well, not only the flagships, so we'd better get used to it.
