Absolute disgrace of a phone. Thick bezels, plastic body, lower ppi compared to s4. Horrible icons . Epic fail. Seems like a downgrade compared to s4. This is 2014 and samsung have just released another heap of plastic sh*t. Goodnight samsung hello apple and htc
Samsung Galaxy S5 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 3 vs Sony Xperia Z2

Avantage Of Sony Xperia Z2 - Memory RAM , FM Radios , Battery , Water Resistant
Disavantage - Scanner Print
"Samsung thought what the average user would like to own in terms of use."
1. Heart rate sensor = maybe, if a 70 year-old man wants to prepare for his death in the near future.
2. Fingerprint sensor = you won't be able to unlock the phone in any other way but swiping your registered finger only.
3. 2GB RAM.....seriously?!
4. IP67 = thumbs up for this one, people will love to call their friends while taking a shower.
And by the way, this was meant to be the next flagship for the most picky people (like me), who would not care about the price if they knew what they are paying for. I am totally disappointed, I guess i will be forced to buy myself the Sony Z2 (unfortunately...)
That.......is.......one.......awesome........smartphone !!!
Samsung s5 coming out with waterproof and dust proof feature Showa Samsung is either running out of ideas or Sony give them a scare with their xperia z and z1!
Sums ung sucksssssss,,!! Copy cut as always,,, they are just good on copying but still failure,,,,
Example is galaxy active they are telling its 4g but all those customers who bought it keep on coming back and complaining cos its not automatic 4g network it need tos up date the software before they can use 4g( holy crop ). And when they update the software the device starts malfunctioning grrrrr,, duh?...samsung really annoying.
Anonymous, 25 Feb 2014I think we all agree it should've had more.....But how is Samsung playing catch up with everyo... moreyeah the Note 3 is an awesome, Samsung should of just spent that extra time to develop something a little more special. This phone although newer than the Note 3 is actually a step back. Maybe the Note line of Samsung Galaxy brand is the trendsetter and not the S series as we have all known them to be.
The water proof and 16mp is nice. And the 2.5ghz....But honestly...This is the first time Samsung has ever done this...partial thing. The S5 was hyped to be all this stuff and reality its the smallest update they ever made.
This is a Galaxy S4.2.
The battery is the same size, the device is slightly thicker.
I don't get it. I guarantee it's an overall great device for sure and as a packaged deal with it's screen and features it will be hard to beat even a stronger chip is not enough to beat the package deal with fullhd amoled and touchwiz....but still.
Why bigger s4 size is perfect

boomer, 25 Feb 2014Bad move from Samsung, its like they are playing catchup with Sony,HTC & Apple. I personal... moreI think we all agree it should've had more.....But how is Samsung playing catch up with everyone else???
Nothing can fully outdo the Note3 still
Same design and nothing really new. Samsung really lost..
Bad move from Samsung, its like they are playing catchup with Sony,HTC & Apple. I personally think its a rushed release maybe mid 2014 would of been a better release date with updated hardware and more RND time.
Apple I think will claw black the owners although Sony and HTC are in lead with innovation. Good luck to all manufacturers, I have a sneaky feeling Sony might just pull it off with the right marketing.
Sorry samsung im never gonna upgrade my s3 to this. Looking at Sony Z2 and Lg G2 =)
This is why iphone makes more money. Samsung should fired their design team. This design was dead 3 years ago since s3 came out. My gf said: " It shouldn't call S5" I'm a Android phones user, and i was hoping something beat iphones. HTC and Sony, your move
Finger sensor and 16 m for the camera and water resistant not a big move we expect metal body and enhance in battery life 2800 mAh is not enough for 5.1 inch screen ?
I’m no hater for Samsung nor other brand
Everyone can/or have their own opinion
However you really need to know numbers talk by them self.
Samsung market share is over 6 times more than Sony or HTC
So reality numbers speak for them self.
Even when comparing one model to another not just because Samsung has too many range.
For those ordinary users, S5 is already very good.
AnonD-237159, 25 Feb 2014samsung galaxy s6 will bring something new like curve oled screen 2160p 5,3 inch , video 2160p... moreAre you ok?
Looking at S5 today , makes the new htc one 2014 ( leak pictures ) looks like a Lamborghini in front of the new galaxy s5. I'm sorry Htc that I was criticising and questioning the new design as I was jealous by hearing the new samsung galaxy s5 design and features. But after watching the event I feel sorry for all the Sammy fans that the device is not as per the expectations. To be honest all the low end Chinese manufacturer having the similar designs ( specially the front of the device ). So htc will rock the 2014 , that's what I feel, let's see as I'm pretty happy with my existing htc one dev edition.
