Anyone found a Offgrid style case for the S6 Edge+ or a way to have a memory card attached to the phone full time? I'm used to having a 128gb micro sd card in my phone and really miss it with the S6 Edge+.
I wouldn't mind having a solution for this as well. For the mean time I carry around a wireless hub that can take a SDcard and use that to store big items and pictures, and also serves as a back up battery.
Here is the item I carry around with me:

Figured as the S5 is new and the Galaxy range has been OTG compatible, this might be of some use to somebody. As mentioned in the glass protector thread, I've used a couple of these from the seller (on my G2 . . . Don't tell anyone I am here in this forum checking out the S5 progress in time for my next upgrade ha ha) and they do the job as expected. I bought a Meenova before these too (which is still a cool device it must be said), but these were much cheaper than importing a Meenova to the UK was.
Has a basic option -

And a fancier option with USB, Micro USB, SD slot on one device -

The Mophie Juice Pack uses a proprietary Impact Isolation System that works like an internal suspension to protect your handset, while at the same time it is making sure that your phone is powered up to handle all of the mobile tasks you need to get done. Mophie is part of Samsung's SMAPP program, consisting of the manufacturer's strategic partners. This means that only Mophie will be offering a battery charging case for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge when both phones launch on April 10th. The case for either device will be priced at $99.95 and will be available starting on that date from Mophie's online store, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, Best Buy and other retailers.
That's good, but I prefer Zerolemon's SolarJuice 20000mAh Crushproof. It's water resistant and can charge s6 battery several times, and it just costs $79.99
Why don't these battery cases incorporate sd card slots? Since the battery case is already going to be plugged into the micro usb slots anyways

Zerolemon is gonna put on sale a 4000mAh battery case, but I don't know if it's going to incorporate SD card slot, that would be a good idea.
for $99 they can shove it up their a$$
who would pay that kind of money, you can buy a pretty nice portable charger for a third of that price and get many more mAhs, and it doesn't turn your phone into a brink size device. battery cases are among the dumbest things ever to hit the phone accessory market. buy an ultra sleek $700 phone and attach it to a device that increase the size by 3 times.
I currently have an S4. I love it, I also got an extended battery, and a 64GB MicroSD card. I was hoping a better S5 when the S6 came out but it actually seems like they kinda went backwards on a few things. This has left me thinking about just going to a different phone. What does anyone else think? I know extended batteries are on the way out I have given up on that for a next gen phone but was hoping that the S6 would keep the Water proof, USB 3, Removable Battery and MicroSD card. I can only wonder why they took away these features.
Hi, total newbie, first post, but.
As a Samsung owner from the original S, currently running a S4, I have to agree with your observations, in regards to going backwards.
Personally, I see the removal of the SD card as a money making scam on Samsungs part. Ok, I have no real world experience of what handset internal memory costs to buy in regards to manufacturing etc, but.
To me, the variations in memory sizes should have been costed against what the equivalent micro SD card cost to buy respectively.
Sandisc 32gig Class 10 £13
Sandisc 64gig £26
Sandisc 128gig £70 ish.
Not to robbed blindly at £200 for the extra 90 odd gig you get between 32 & 128 inbuilt.
The say they dropped the micro SD due to the full metal frame and glass back, rubbish. It looks like they have a machined slot to take the micro sim, so why couldn't they do similar with micro sd card?
Battery is an issue certainly, if it turns out like the original S4 ones, that ended up swollen.
It makes you wonder if these handsets will be operational in 5 years time. I mention this as I have a few old handsets, in pristine condition, with original batteries from the late 90's, early 2000 that all still work perfectly. Im afraid that I can's see the same with their modern builds.
Well,looks like we don't have much options left of removable batteries smartphones,but its not a big deal,at least for me,because its not like we can't replace it,its just harder but still possible.The issue here is that only 2550 mAh,plus with a unnecessary QHD display ,the S6 battery can perform any better than our S4?
For the SD Card,they don't drop it because of the glass and metal design,its performance related.S6 have amazingly fast R/W internal memory,and a SD card would ruin it.The price off course will be a issue,but i think they made a good choice.
The biggest drawback is the lack of waterproof,and for the USB 3,i wonder when they will begin to implement the Type C standard on Smartphones,that would be cool!
I think im gonna jump this generations of smartphones because I am still happy with the S4 and type C standard is actually a very nice practical thing to have. I'm even delaying my motherboard upgrade because of that.
I want buy a new high end tablet.. I prefer stock android cose I am tired of waiting for updates. There is no good nexus tab at the moment unfortunately, the pixel C is too big and has no micro card reader. the Samsung tab s2 is an option but I don't like the small battery. 4000 mha is not enough for my usage. Can you recommend a high end tablet with micro card reader.
Thanks
Hi guys, a need a little help, I'm looking for a case that can handle an SD card on the S6. I don't need that it must include a battery pack. The only one that I found are above 90€, is there somethings cheaper?
