    I heard of users having volume issues with first batches. So keep waiting for the production to get better before buying.

            The cheat sealed ALUMINUM is now the last "place" to hide:)

            Apple's propaganda was bashing Note 3 design too. Right?
            But since ppl put their hands on it in real, they know that Note 3 is beautiful and classy device. And then the apple propaganda shut up. Right?
            Same will happen tomorrow, with S5. I can bet on that.

              The S5's stock browser must be optimized for benchmarks since Chrome on the S5 is still at over 700ms like all the rest of the stock browsers and Chrome are.

                AnonD-209094, 09 Apr 2014"you also get a brand new Snapdragon 801 chipset to take over from the tiring Snapdragon ... moreWell the bezels are not that big. But one reason for being slightly larger would be water proofing, and physical buttons....But that would just be...logical though...

                          Jay, 10 Apr 2014So, it is not even launched but you already have a hand on it eh? Why wouldn't I have a hand on it? Heard of pre-launch display sets?

                            Ive held this phone in a Samsung store 2 weeks ago and i felt no excitement whatsoever. I cant feel the "premiumness" of the device.i think if an owner of an s5 is sitting between an owner of SXZ2 and HTC One, he'll feel ashamed of taking it out of his pocket..its like showing off ur Hyundai Sta. Fe to owners of Range Rover and BMW X5.

                              Omg more iRants he he.

                              I like the look of the new S5 and I like the build quality of Samsungs phones.

                              I guess Samsung has hit a technological ceiling because what else is there to upgrade ?

                              USB 3.0 FASTEST afaik

                              My biggest gripe is how they stuffed up default email with the 4.3 upgrade.

                              Everything else is either wonderful or intrusive.

                              Googles policy of of forcing us to share our data is my biggest disappointment I wish there was one button that would keep everything on my phone on my phone.

                              I dont want to share my data.

                              Thanks Samsung for great phones !!

                                      Ramesz, 09 Apr 2014You cant compare Touchwiz with Sense 6.sense is a premium thing...once you use it you stick to... moreI agree, Sense could easily be one of the most desired launchers out there. TW has always been the lackluster and full of gimmicks...
