As a G5 owner, you have made a terrible decision. My next phone will be a Nexus.

my s6 is faster that SO's iphone

Try this

Go to the to the play store and download DNSET. Forget your connection and re enter your WiFi password. Then open the DNSet app and check off auto run. Then hit the run button.

It appears to set your phone's DNS servers to Googles public DNS servers.

DNS is the system that resolves host names to IP addresses.

It is a way to work around slow dns servers on carriers or ISPs.

Is your software updated? Which browser are you using? Whats speedtest.net showing for internet speed? Have you gone to Chrome setting and turned on Data Saver?

As a Note 3 owner, I preordered a nexus 6P and couldn't be more excited.

I just ran a speedtest on my s6 edge and got 71.2 down, 4.87 up and 51 ms ping.

Works for me.

lollipop is part of the problem and DNSET will resolve the issue. Marshmellow should have the fix

I went from an iPhone 6 Plus to a Samsung Galaxy 6 Active.

I hated it so much I brought it back to the ATT store after a day and went back to my trusty ol 6 Plus
