Does the S6 give you RAW files? I am not a fan of post processing and being able to export in raw would be all i really need as bet your bottom dollar I can extract a better image than what most phones will show me...
No interest in buying you understand just asking. My One plus 3 is all the cam I need.
It's possible but you have to use an add on application. I only had an S6 for a short time before it went for a swim
hence why i have a redmi note 3 Pro now. The one I'm selling is my partner's, she just uses Jpeg for casual shots, but it's very impressive at that. I don't think i'd bother using RAW on a phone cam tbh, I deal with RAW from the dslr every other day, and i do love post processing - it's like a therapy! 
but phone images ... nah. You can still enhance decent Jpegs in the likes of Lightroom without needing to use RAW. 0 -

Have mine a few days now and am very happy with it. I bought this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Original-Xiaomi-Redmi-Note-3-Pro-Snapdragon-650-Hexa-Core-5-5-3GB-RAM-32GB-ROM/342812_32597684693.html
- Screen is very clear with colours that really pop out at you. The size of the screen makes reading very easy which is great if you read a lot on your phone.
- Build quality of the phone is very good although I did get a free cover with mine [transparent rubbery one that fits like a glove around it].
- Fingerprint scanner is very good once you set it up and its location is good on the back right where your finger would naturally go anyway.
- Call quality is as good as any other phone I have had. Volume is good and the mic is fine etc.
- Takes a bit of time to charge due to the size of the battery but on the flip-side the battery life is very good.
- MIUI has improved on every iteration it has had so far which is nice to see.
- No lag from the processor and there is plenty of RAM to run multiple apps without any delays or slow-down.
- Camera seems fine, it's not as good as the rest of the phone but I haven't messed with it too much. It will do what it needs to do without being overly fantastic.
- Infra-red remote control for the telly and whatnot is handy but doesn't pair up with the TV I have
- Seems heavy compared to my old Redmi 2 which had a much smaller 4.7" screen so I think we can excuse the flab haha!
Overall - for the money you pay, it's a great value phone that will last for a good while yet. Apply to have the bootloader unlocked and you have a whole other world of ROMs like Cyanogenmod etc to fall back on if you don't like MIUI or if Xiaomi stop rolling out updates for it in time to come. I often think that that is important to keep in mind if you plan on keeping the phone for 3 years or more.0 -
