Samsung Galaxy S6 turned out not the flagship many was hoping for. It ditched the SD expansion slot the water protection and removable battery for good, in favor of refined design and improved user experience.
Now that those features are a lost cause for the Samsung Galaxy S6, many are hoping Samsung would reconsider for the upcoming Galaxy S6 Active edition of the flagship. A reddit user spent some quality time with a Samsung rep, who shed some light on company's plans for future devices and past decisions.
First, let's check out what's coming in the Galaxy S6 Active. Reportedly the device will keep the Galaxy S6 specs, but will lack fingerprint scanner and heart-rate monitor. Instead it will come with front physical keys and will look a lot like the recently announced Samsung Galaxy Xcover 3.
The highlights of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Active will be, of course, the water and dust protection plus Samsung promises to keep the microSD card slot and the removable battery. Currently Samsung has no plans for giving up on the memory expansions slots in the rugged smartphones.
The Galaxy S6 Active should be launched in mid-summer this year, but the pricing is yet to be announced.
The reddit user garshol also asked the Samsung's rep about the decision to cut off the water-proofing and the SD slot. Apparently Samsung did a study among the users about the water protection and they concluded the people prefer the freedom from port covers in favor of water endurance.
The microSD slot on the other hand was removed in order to fit more technology on its place and for a better and more refined design.
You should take all these pieces of information with a healthy pinch of salt, as usual.

You can't. The S6 active will allow you to slip in a microSD on the opposite side as your SIM card BUT it will not accept/register it to be used in your phone. This was one of the many cons that came with this version of the phone. Better battery lif...

My SD card is not activate . how can I activate my SD card on my Samsung galaxy s6
The Galaxy S10 only supports microSD cards. If you’re wondering how to insert or remove an SD card to your new device, follow the steps provided below.
Your device may no longer support older version of microSD cards. For best results, we recommend that you use Samsung-made microSD cards or those with the following rating:
- class 10
- UHS class 1, 3 or newer
Keep in mind that not all SD cards are created equal. If you plan on using the SD card as your phone’s camera storage, get the best SD card there is. More affordable SD cards may be okay but their write/save speed may be slower, which in turn, can affect the performance of your S10’s camera.
How to insert SD card on Galaxy S10
Follow these steps to insert a SD card:
- Turn off your Galaxy S10. This is important. Inserting a SD while the device is on may result to corrupted data.
- With your phone’s screen facing you, remove the card tray. You can use the insertion/removal tool (or a paperclip) to unlock the tray by inserting it into the provided slot. This small hole should be visible on the top part of your device.
- Insert the SD card into the tray (gold contacts facing down). The card should fit snugly in the slot. If the metallic contacts are visible to you, or if the card seems to move, you’re not doing it right. Ensure the card fits into place.
- Insert SD card
- Insert the card tray (gold contacts facing down).
- Press in on the tray to lock it into place.
- That’s it! Turn on your S10 and see if it now detects your SD card.
