One of the main reasons why I decided I would prefer the Galaxy S6 over the curvy Galaxy S6 Edge is that I was sure I would end up dropping the latter on its side and shattering its display.

But based on the video clip below, the device seems insanely tough and near impossible to break under everyday circumstances.

OnePlus has already made a name for itself with its debut smartphone, and rumor has it the company is planning something special for its second-generation device that will help it better compete against giants like Samsung, HTC, and even Apple.

One of the features of the OnePlus Two, according to a new report, will be a fingerprint scanner. But not just any fingerprint scanner… a laser focus fingerprint scanner.

Earlier this year, Sony told users that only the flagship Xperia Z series was part of its Lollipop upgrade plans, leading many to believe everything else would remain on KitKat.

But the Japanese company has today confirmed both the Xperia T2 Ultra and the Xperia C3 are also in line for an Android 5.0 upgrade.

Unlike the Galaxy S5, Samsung’s latest flagships are not water-resistant. It’s not that Samsung just forgot to announce this feature, either; the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge really do not like water — as demonstrated in the video below.

Lollipop’s memory leak has been plaguing Nexus users since Android 5.0 was released late last year, and despite several updates since then, Google has failed to fix it. Fortunately, third-party developers have stepped in with a patch.

The tweak is intended for devices running AOSP ROMs based on Android 5.0 and up, and it’s available on rooted devices running the Xposed framework.
