I know what one of my problems is with Android after a chat with an unemployed mate..With Android ALL of the companies keep releasing models at a high rate and i want to change my phone to latest one or at least try it..I cannot afford this so i sell my Android (whichever company makes it) at a loss to try the next new kid on block...I do find this exciting and keeps enthusiasm going but at a high cost..
So to sum up,,if companies released less but better quality and designed Android the whole Android thing would be more appealing..I have tried Nexus 5 (brilliant fast device) and S3/S4/S5 but they are awful and slow especially camera.
Sony decided to release flagship every 6 months and now look at their losses,the person on the street needs time to save up for their next phone and Sony did this but the fans could not get the money in time to buy their next flagship..I have a not very well paid job and buy mainly second hand but now my money is low so how are less affluent folk going to keep buying brand new phones from these companies..
To prove my point Apple and Samsung release flagships yearly,oh and just so happens they are top 2 companies in Smartphones.

I am using Galaxy S5(SM-G900F) for almost one month. I have upgraded from Galaxy S3. I wish to share my user experience with you.
For me it’s a real up gradation from S3 to S5.
Some features I like most and feel they should be present in all high end mobile.
IP67 certification – Water and dust resistance really required for this type of costly device.
Display quality- Really display quality is different form other display. Put same photo or video in other mobile you will see the difference. Also outside legibility is very good. There will be no problem to read the screen outside with display brightness sate in auto, no need to put it in maximum.
Finger print scanner – I find very useful for me. We have to swipe finger to unlock. We can store different angel swiping. So only placing finger will not work. I feel this is more secured because the user only know the swipe angles.
Heart rate sensor & S health – Really useful for monitoring my health related things like walking, jugging etc.
Battery life – I find it last 25% more compare to my old S3. Though it got bigger screen.
Power saving mode with gray scale and ultra power saving mode really very helpful in some situation.
Download buster- I have tried experimentally few times. As I do not have unlimited data plan. It is absolutely super fast for downloading big size files.
IR remote control – Useful for using as single remote for all device.
Private mode – Similar type third party application people use but now it is installed and better than those third party application.
Touch sensitivity – By applying this I can use anything as s pen.
One handed operation, smart stay, light sensor, barometer, smart stay.
Some features which may be not that much useful or need to be improve.
Smart scroll, smart pause – As they detect user’s eye from front camera there are limitation of those application to work properly. For me smart stay is working very well but Smart scroll & smart pause are not working very well though all are based on same tech.
Air view, Air browse, direct call are working well but I don’t feel they are much essential. But we can deactivate them any time.
