If you for go for the top 128GB models, the S6 will cost you roughly £730 in comparison to the iPhone 6, which is around £680. So if you go for the entry level, the S6 will give you more storage for the money, but the top end is significantly more expensive than the iPhone 6.''

Just picked a random text from Google. It's easily to find. But anyways even my Blackberry Passport was more expensive than the iPhone. Times changed...

Those were based on estimates, and not on actual prices. The iPhone 6 128GB is £699.
The £760 for the 128GB S6 is from the 64GB Edge, as Samsung have not announced any prices for the UK yet regarding all models of the S6.

Places where the S6 is available, the iPhone works out to be the same price. Sometimes Samsung are more expensive, sometimes Apple. Just depends on what's decided etc.

However, Samsung being even more expensive than Apple with phones, and selling more should mean better profit. But they aren't getting it. Which isn't adding up.

I picked up an S6 in store to see if it lived up to expectations. My dialer app on iOS 7 launches in less than a second. Dialer app on S6 took a second and an half to launch. I make urgent calls all the time. Bye.

Where is the breakdown by model? Are those pure Galaxy sales? If not, it's not impressive at all.

And they will slay even more.
Iphone 6 sales peaked and the Galaxy S6 is just released...

Hmmmm Galaxy S5 is the best selling android phone of the last year and it's considered as a flop by Samsung standards,also S4 and S3 were the best sellers respectively from the previous years.Not to mention the huge sales from Galaxy note series,which actually cost more than the S phones and as much as an iPhone.And now Galaxy S6 is expected to sell triple the Galaxy S5 sales!
