The Chinese manufacturers got a lot more buyers last year due to their cheap and solid enough offerings. Many persons were able to get a Chinese flagship for half the price of the S5 so they went for it. What I'm telling you is not new news...it has been been reported on CNN as well as online news agencies. I don't know if you own a S5 or not but most persons who speak the way you do don't usually own it otherwise they would clearly know it's not a failure based on the technology in it.

I don't understand why some people say the G900H is the Indian version. Not becau... morethey say it because sm-g900h is mostly for those countries where 4G is not fully developed, india bangladesh and might be other countries does not have 4G yet or may be in developing mode, so thats y sm-g900h( which does not have 4G ) are shipped to such contries,as their is a slight price difference bw sm-g900h and sm-g900f models.....but it does not mean sm-g900h is not available in other developed countries.even i have sm-g900h.
cheers

I don't understand why some people say the G900H is the Indian version. Not because that's the only variant available in your country means it's the Indian version. It's available in virtually every country. Even I have the G900H and happy with it...and I'm millions of light years away from India.

I've got the Lollipop update just 2 days ago and I'm VERY happy with it. Looks beautiful, fast and more user friendly. The camera also has improved, the response time after pushing the camera button has become shorter (escpecially in low light) and that is great! The battery life is just as good as before the update. I'm glad that I didn't need to reset the phone after update. Thanks you very much Samsung for making the S5. The perfect phone for me.

GSMA were claiming somewhere around end november that Samsung was seeding LP to its Polish phones...
I only got here in Western Europe officialy 6 days ago.
Samsung is sending updates on some scheduled region plan basis, so when it will be your turn, it will be your turn. Now you can check on Sammobile for daily latest pushed firmwares all around the world.
And it's not only Samsung, LG was "first" on LP with G3, i got my official update just before new year evening or right after (don't remember).

for battery, i really doubt it since there are many complaints about it on another forum i go often. I was to get 2 days usage on kitkat, for now, i think i will get "almost" 2 days. I have 22% battery left for starting my 2nd day today.
Free ram argument must be on some empty phone. I remember having tested kitkat with free ram, i was about same as lollipop. And i don't see the point in watching free ram, it's there to be used anyway, if not by you, by the system since android likes dynamically caching everything.
On my LG G3, i have 1.6gb ram used atm and i don't complain about it.
More, on lollipop now i feel the S5 is slower to react than on kitkat : more latency when pressing back or entering call logs and sliding a contact and waiting for the call window to appear.
Anyway, i let Samsung bugfix that if not, i was thinking about S6 on release as i do every year with rebate thanks to cash back from S5, they do that every year here. If S6 doesn't please me, i'll get back to kitkat, rom is already there waiting to be flashed but i have too much to backup for now.

-Silent mode to toogle on the go, whenever you want without entering any parameter submenu, just with quick toogle buttons or long power press menu.
-And Blocking Mode which was way more convenient than priority mode half assed option : it was schedulable. But i doubt you were using it or you would miss greatly that option.
That's why we complain.
And to support my complain, i have a LG G3, and it has BOTH options on Lollipop.
Blocking mode was in Galaxy S3/S4 before it appeared on some IOS update, we had an original feature which got wiped out whereas now it's included in many other phones be default (i have a lenovo Sisley too which has it).
