      Goale S4 user, 19 Jun 2014Regarding it's release in Indian sub continent. You have to wait and see the market launch. H... morewe indians are not getting any samsung mobile (s4, s5, n2, n3) with snapdragon version.we have to struggle with their exynos cpu that's the reason why I hate samsung.... and also samsung didn't release any LTE mobile in india then how can we expect S5 with LTE-A in india??? this wont happens maybe because s5 lte-a is limited to korea only

        Anonymous, 19 Jun 2014yeah keep satisfying yourself. everybody knows you have been trolled by samsung this time with... moreWhat's the big deal my dear?

        You cannot even justify what is the advantage of Snapdragon 805 over 801 and the 3GB RAM over 2GB RAM.

        Come on! Hmmmm!

You just need to pay the usage fee for the old phone and deduct the remaining balance price value of the old phone to the price of the new model.

          Cheers!

                Hey bonjour.now old S5 user started satisfying themselves by stating this S5 going to release only in korea/antartica etc.old s5 was a big failure of samsung.samsung got no big buyer this time dats the reason price discount almost nearing half from the launch price.samsung lost their rank due to the failure of old s5. samsung got no other way but only way to do hardware change to stabilise it and dey cant wait till note 4 or s6 launch- lead to market saturation.today i got info on s5 lte-a gonna occupy majority of the market soon including india as well.old production s5 production already on hold it seems and gonna replace by s5 lte-a. PS this s5 lte-a supports both cdma + gsm simcard with hspa. old s5 fans sorry to say till now you had a S5 BETA version for the huge amount and uglier version of s4.s5 lte-a is the powerful device evermade till date wit snapdragon 805, adreno 400 series, 3gbram....

                        GANGSTER, 18 Jun 2014great phone>>>the only porblem with SAMOLED screena is that if used for long static images, such as texting 2-3 hours, and so a few months does not cause the burn in, ie notches images. This story from personal experience with s4 where we are as a notification bar and keyboard carved into the screen. you have a lot of topics on the Internet os amoled and burn in issue which of course none of the tests mentioned. As for me, for me, from now on only the phones with the IPS LCD. I buy a s5 for 500 EUR and that after a few months of active use of the notches image, or you have to use it on average it would not be carved images. No thank you. I prefer for the money to ride on the phone that I want ..

                          S5 is a great phone I got mine a month ago and battery lasts a lot longer than my previous Galaxy S3. The 4G is lightning fast, and I love touch wiz..2gb is more than enough ram. I enjoy all the gimmicks like heart rate and I use the pedometer often. Camera on this phone is superior to most point and shoot cameras I have used. I like the golf ball back cover, especially the blue color, nearly non-slip. I wish the speaker phone was of better quality.
                          What really sucks is the little usb cover on a cheap platic tether on the bottom broke after merely one week, thats all it lasted before separating completely. On that big auction site the part is inexpensive and very easy to replace but why should I put another piece of crap on the phone that proved faulty in the first place and one that will only endure one week? Very poor quality control on that charging port usb cover, should have never been used. I will wait and skip another generation before getting S7 and see if those cheap parts are on before buying one of the galaxy series again. Overall very happy with this phone, it has sooooo many positive areas that make for a great user experience. Kitkat 4.4.2 is a huge upgrade... thank you g@@gle. Dont get me wrong I was happy with the S3, it was only replaced because my work place paid for the upgrade. Here is to the next 2 years CHEERS!

                              AnonD-89109, 19 Jun 2014Lol, just because they added 1 GB more RAM it makes it great. It would have been great if they... moreYes with that just 1GB additional ram Samsung S5 lost its part to Sony Z2 and LG G2 in many countries including Singapore, Malaysia, US, Australia etc.

                              Now S5 is back.

                              With the Adreno 420 processor now S5 LTEA version becomes one of the powerful device ever made.

                              Infact so called best phone in the world named HTC one m8 got only Adreno 330. Haha.

                              It's gonna be a leap ahead for Samsung this time.

                                S5 LTE A is really a break thru..during S5 release I was disappointed by seeing only 2gb ram. Wen note 3 and g2 had 3gb ram. I thought s5 would come up with 3gb or more ram. But now highly satisfied with S5 LTE A version along with Adreno 440 processor !!!!!

                                Now its time for LG G2 & Sony z2 to get involve in tight competition :)

                                With the above feature now S5 looks complete and powerful in the name of S5 LTE A!!!!

                                Regarding its release it has high possibility to get released in the market where S4 LTEA version got released. Includes markets like Singapore, US, Europe. Ibtw let us wait and see the market. Since Sam done some important changes there is a chance for S5 3GB RAM version to get release in more markets !!! Hopefully .

                                I could notice Since past 3 weeks the price of S5 in many shops has been slashed by around 25%. Now with this s5 LTEA momentum will be back for S5.

                                Regarding price . S4 LTEA I9506 price was somewhat 10% higher than S4 I9500. I wish same goes for S5 LTEA version. Just add 10% of additional cost to the current price of S5.

                                Just with the 10% extra coat we r getting 3gb RAM and one of the fastest Adreno 440 processor & of course LTEA with the terrific Internet speed up to 250mbps in a downward link. Means fastest browsing and downloading experience ever.

                                Cheers . I wish it's time for me to go for S5 LTEA 3GB version from My Samsung S4.

                                Now the S5 turns truly a flagship with its new version.

                                Way to go Samsung.

                                Cheers
