            After my bad experience in Samsung Galaxy S4, the unit get extremely hot and the battery become swollen, I changed the battery twice in period of 4 months, and even charging time on USB is very very slow.Also MMC issues every time I connect my mobile to laptop the laptop hang than I discover that the problem is from the MMC and keep changing MMC every 2 months.Therefore I don’t recommend any body to buy Samsung mobile there is a lot of other brands 100 times better than Samsung mobile like HTC one LG G2 Xperia Z2.

                RAM IS LESS, I'm already using s3 Tmobile usa made whose ram is 2 gb,
                this should be 3 gb, according to the price,
                i think gionee e7 much better in processor , ram and camera as well when we goes for feature,
                but price factor much diff,
                s5 should decrees its price according to ist given spec.

                  iPhone 5s is nothing but an iPhone 3g with little improvement yet the price is sky high. People like you believe blindly that iPhone 5s is the successor of all iPhones.

                  That is why I didn't upgrade my basic phone iPhone 4 to iPhone 5s.

                  And FYI, I don't have S4, so I'd rather choose the latest.

                  But for people who already have S4, they need not upgrade to S5.

                    Just giving out some addon to S4 and calling it as a successor !!! LOL ! and still people like you go and purchase it With out analysing it with price almost double than s4.

                    Very different.

                    In fact I thought S 5 should have 3 GB RAM, at least 12 core processor, and a much better design.

                    Look at the S 5 design . Very similar to grand/ ace series.

                    Not at all nice.

                    just compare image of S4 and S 5 you would know what I am trying to mean.

                    lets cheers for this S4 add on version.

                    S 5 = S4 camera edition (with water proof and finger print add ons)

                    The bad part is Samsung called this one as a successor and some people still believes it blindly.

                          Had the phone for just over a week and the tab connecting the cover to the usb slot has broken. I thought that would not last 5 minutes due to its flimsy design and I was right. Have to pull the thing open at least once a day to charge it. Not impressed with this.

                              The same thing goes with other gadgets, as long as you do not abuse them, they will give you good performance in return.

                              That also apply to people like your friends.
