      Hello everyone,
      Here's my review on the Samsung Galaxy S5 from Korea! I've gotten mine when they first came out. I'd thought having a switch from a iPhone to a Galaxy S5 was a good idea. I absolutely hated the iPhone when I got it, and now that I'm using a Galaxy S5 -- I love it! It's a lot better than a lame iPhone for sure. The S5 freezes time to time and the apps you download quit responding, but that's all phones. I recommend get rid of your iPhone, get a Galaxy S5!

          Hey guys I need help! I have a galaxy s5 SM-G900F and even though it has LTE, it's not showing up in my network modes. All that I can see is WCDMA and GSM. Anyone who knows what's going on? It has download booster too!

                Does anyone else feel like the front facing camera sometimes gives what looks like "fish eye view"? I feel like when I take a front facing picture it makes my face look long and stretched out and other parts of my body look either super thin or super fat...maybe it's just a defect on my phone?

People using smart phones for internet options. Thats the major thig in smart phones. Im a heavy user. This flagship not sutable for guys like me. UI not friendly. Every body know this flagship calls as galaxy s4s. Because there is no much diffrence between s4 and 5 hardwere wise. I didnt mean they are same. S4 ram 2 and 5 is same. Look at the marks. Every buddy agree with me about s5 desine. Featurs, preformence are same. Ghosh, im not an idiot. (im srilankan, u r an indian. I belive asins are intelegent. U can understand me dude.)

                              I am willing to buy one Samsung Galaxy S5. but i am confused. i recently sold my Lumia 1020 just because of bad battery and processing.

                                      S5 is really easy to handle, and it's comfortable too. Thanks to the band-aid design (no sarcasm here). It's way easier to handle than an M8 or Z2.

                                      It is actually fast, but you don't see any of it because it's running TouchWiz. When the GPE is out check it out, it will surely be one of the fastest device out there.

                                      Every sane person uses a mobile phone for texting and calling and some chatting and a little browsing. However there are some kids who purchases a phone and try to replace it with other stuffs, which is ridiculous at it's prime. So your point is moot here.

                                      Battery life is great too. I mean if you are low then that UPS mode works like a charm. I am more or less battery life will be more or less same with all the other flagships out there. Maybe Z2 will be a bit better because of larger battery but if you use a phone extensively then at the end of the day you will have to plug your charger.
