Yet another teaser is thrown off about the Samsung Galaxy S6, this time courtesy of TMobile CEO John Legere. The teaser shows off an almost clear photo of the Samsung Galaxy S6, with full-metal rear and curved body on both sides.

In a tweet by Legere, the teaser image comes with this caption: "The Six Appeal." Whatever that means remains to be seen especially that the tweet does not reveal much except two things.

One is the Galaxy S6 looks like the Note Edge only that the first will feature a screen that is curved on both sides. Secondly, TMobile offers pre-registration for prospective buyers. The latter holds great significance as far as the actual look of Samsung Galaxy S6 is concerned.

Another truth that the teaser brings is that Samsung stays true to its words about using either glass or metal for its handsets in replacement of the cheap materials it used before for its handsets, such as fake leather and plastic. This garners the approval of tech reviewers after seeing the teaser image of the Samsung Galaxy S6 with dark gray metal back.

According to the Verge, the rear "looks pretty nice and is a huge step above anything that Samsung's produced to this point." It does not fail to bid goodbye as well to the fake leather that Samsung used in some of its handsets.  

Aside from that, it has also been confirmed that the S6 will be using Samsung's homegrown OS which is projected to be super efficient since it is one of the most powerful processor technologies in the market now. Specifically, it is 20 percent efficient than the previous processor developed by Samsung and can reduce battery consumption up to 35 percent than the Galaxy S5.

Other features that are hinted from previous teasers include the upcoming device's "amazing" camera features and wireless charging capability.

The full features and specs of the Smasung Galaxy S6 will be unveiled on March 1 during the tech manufacturer's "Unpacked" event at the MWC in Barcelona.
