In the world of gadgets, all one can talk about is the expected release date of the all new Samsung Galaxy S6. The new specifications, features, and the price, have excited more than a few gadget fanatics. Although everything about the phone remains a mystery, speculations never stop when its about the latest gadget in town.

With the Samsung sales showing a slump and the third quarter of the financial year not doing so well for the company, there might be a lot more to expect from the latest release from Samsung, which might release no sooner than later.

According to V3, the Galaxy S6 might have a curved screen handset or curved display, metallic sides and a rubberized backplate or even an aluminum chassis smartphone.

According to a report at Business Insider, Samsung will be launching a second version of the Galaxy S6 alongside the metal version. This model reportedly will feature a curved display, similar to that seen on the Galaxy Note Edge.

The cost of the phone is estimated to be somewhere around $860, according to various sources.
