The 2,550 mAh batteries of the smartphones are capable of wireless charging, and just 10 minutes of the device under a wired Fast Charge will provide power that can last for four hours worth of usage.
The sensor size for the front camera has been increased, while keeping its thinness, with the 5 MP camera featuring a better aperture and auto real-time HDR capabilities.
The 16 MP rear camera also features the same things, along with optical image stabilization, an LED flash and tracking autofocus capabilities.
The improved fingerprint scanner of the smartphones provides users with more security for the devices in addition to being an integral part of the Samsung Pay system, which will be released this summer in South Korea and the United States.
The ear jack for the devices is now situated at the bottom of the smartphones, placing it in a better position for the new earphones that were designed for the Galaxy S6.
