What cant understand is why my 4K video capture is set at 5 minutes plus sometimes its says "Recording Failure" and rebooting device does not clear this..The only way is to take a photo then video will start recording again,this is 4K mode only..
I found my first charge to be very good,did twitter,200 photos, 20 mins 4K video(4 x 5 mins) set up phone,played 2 hrs music and so on and got just over 9 hrs..
Speaker is scratchy and vibrates whole back panel..Its loud enough just not too pleasant..I am not going to comment on audio through headphones as its personnel choice but loud enough for me..
Screen is very bright but colours not as deep as my S2.
Not interested in finger sensor or heart monitor,,tried fingerprint sensor and indoors it worked fairly good more gimmick to me cant be bothered.
It does feel light and bit slippy in hands but because I know I am sending it back will not buy a case or get one in time before 14 day return period to try.I don't like cases rather look at the phone I bought..
Don't know what else to say its not as fast as my Nexus 5 was ,no way ,its just another Samsung flagship Galaxy S..

I'd, 11 May 2014Hi guy. Where is the Samsung Galaxy S5 made? Korea or China? I know S4 was made in Korea. ThanksOf course it is originated from Korea.
But to lessen the labor expenses, they assemble the units from different countries with less labor cost like China and Vietnam, but the parts are originally made in Korea. Especially if they will sell it to far countries, they need to balance the labor cost and shipment cost.
Units sold in Korea spend less in shipment thereby no need to assemble from China or Vietnam.
You can go there if you want originally made in Korea.

It's like consulting a veterinarian for your medical check up. LOL!
You should go to the official Samsung website.

steve the just., 10 May 2014It has no FM radio. In Africa radio is one of the important communication media.Install TuneIn radio app.
It can give you not only local radio stations but international radio stations for your "improtant communication media".

Seriously, people complaining about radio should just check another phone (there are thousands others i guess) or buy a 5$ radio in a shop to listen to it.

It's better and much more efficient than carrying & charging with a portable power bank.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 introduces features to you that no other smartphone does. For example, it has gestures that no other smartphone offers, and they can really be useful. So consider before buying a phone. Samsung Galaxy S5 should be your first choice. I'd choose it over the HTC M8 or iPhone 5S regardless of people saying that S5 contains extra functions. Furthermore, people calling the S5 a bandaid is an insult to Samsung, as they consider everything before creating; and the perforated back came into being so the phone has less chances of falling. I.e. It gives an impressive grip to the phone. The IP67 certification should really be IP68. I've tested my phone in my swimming pool for 2 hours and it was working perfectly and as smooth as day one. The Samsung Galaxy S5 changed my life in terms of smartphone choices.

People who have kept Loyal to Samsung will be disappointed with the Battery put into the Galaxy S5,as the batteries on the S3 and S4 you were able to use the Portable battery chargers to Charge the Extra Battery people bought,but now will have buy another Portable battery charger to charge up your Spare batteries,Why?didn"t Samsung think about this before changing the Battery Size on the S5,o.k the batterylife is better on the S5 but Samsung did not seem to think about the extra cost for consumers
