scorpio, 01 May 2014S6 will be out before S7. Why don't you wait until S8.Guess he'll wait for S9 reviews before purchasing one.

                Unfortunately this phone looks like a plastic box which is why I don't think I will ever buy another samsung galaxy phone(at least not until they will make a decent build quality like apple or sony, htc)
                In my opinion it doesn't deserve the money for a premium phone with a very poor plastic case. It's not very different from galaxy s4

                            S5 gives you the option to set it to ultra power saving mode to prolong the power, thereby you won't miss important calls or messages.

                              The battery would still last more than a day even it is in normal mode.
                              If the battery gets low and you are far from any charging area, for the meantime, use the ultra power saving mode, but never the power saving mode.

                                I never own a Note 3, because i think it's too big for me. i just switch from S4 to S5. I never realise until i saw a review on youtube that the S5 look's like a smaller version of Note 3 ( hardware build ). Thou the TouchWiz on S5 look's way better. then i compare the note 3 to S5 screen the S5's screen is way more Sharper. I only have the mobile for just a couple of days so i can't tell about the battery life. but really who cares about battery life just bring your charger with you. pretty much all smartphones these days have the shorter battery life than the good old days of nokia 3210 hehe

                                shorter battery life is not a big issue these days i do have the habit of plugging my mobile to the power point if am at the office or at home.

                                am just glad that Samsung is improving their Android Version TouchWiz to be not too "Cartoonish"

Gsmarena site is a big help on making your own research, plus other sites like watching youtube for unboxing videos, reviews plus you can make your own decision on which mobile would you decided to buy. its a little annoying if people putting comments here asking which one to buy for advice. at the end if you bought your mobile with an advice of other people you might not like what you buy, then you blame other people for making decision for you.
