The LED flash and heart rate monitor cutouts seem to have been shifted to the side of the camera.

Also, there appears to be a unibody design on the Galaxy S6 with a non-removable back panel and battery. This is the first time we might see such batteries on the Galaxy lineup as the previous models came with replaceable battery solutions. It is likely that this battery in the Galaxy S6 would be smaller in size though it will retain a similar capacity and will run cooler than in the current models.
