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.
Set the SD card as the Galaxy S5’s default storage. Some apps can be setup to automatically store the files they generate on the MicroSD card. This is especially useful for the Galaxy S5’s camera.

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
With the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, Samsung brought back the microSD card slot to much delight. While they may have skipped on Android 6.0’s Adoptable Storage, there may not be that big of an issue, because they are still allowing you to move apps over to an inserted SD card and take advantage of cards up to 200GB. Since many of you may be coming to the S7 or S7 Edge from a previous Galaxy device and haven’t seen Samsung’s newest implementation of an SD card slot, we thought we’d share that with you today.
If you are coming from a Moto X Pure Edition, you’ll know how this works, but what Samsung has done here is turn the SIM tray of the phone into a microSD tray as well. The SIM tray (and the S7 takes a nano SIM) is located at the top of the phone and can be ejected by using the included SIM tool that Samsung left in the box with all of the phone’s guides. All you have to do is slot the tool into the pin-hole for the tray, apply a bit of pressure, and it will pop right out.
Now, once you have the SIM tray out, you’ll notice there are two slots: one is for your nano SIM and the other is for a microSD card. In the video below, you’ll see exactly where to put each, but you’ll also see how delicate and careful you need to be when doing so, especially as you slide the tray back into the phone.
This isn’t a difficult process, but again, just be careful.
