        samsung doesn't have a premium build but its comfortable to handle d fone.
        the pulse meter is too gimicky,
        camera UI is lacking details and seems low class.
        touchwiz is improved and nice but far from great

            Been with Android since it was first introduced. Coming from Nokia Symbian, android was the best OS I ever used, during the course tried iOS, it was 'okay', then recently decided to give blackberry a chance, and i cant express how impress iam, used note 2, s4 but blackberry 10 in my opinion is what i call smoothness and usability truly packed together.

            One thing that u guys should know, that Operating system is something different than the hard features of the phone. If you looking for a OS to use than Blackberry 10 is the one if your looking for camera/heartbeat monitor than s5 for you.

                The phone is quite awesome and I love it btw the protection is not that strong try it yourself that cover is not strong plus the durability I have a cover which can last for years and also makes it look good

                                  Asking this especially to my Indian friends and others also...anyone who has bought this after S4, could you guys tell me how is the vibration intensity / strength of S5? Is it strong or just weak like S4?

                                  Thanks.

                                    It can merely last 10 hours. The battery drains quickly, in linear manner, even if i dont use the phone, I dont know if it's a configuration problem or it's a problem in my phone itself or simply it's a common problem in galaxy s5

                                      [deleted post]Stop believing and go try something heavy on a M8 to know what you are talking about.

                                      Metal is better for heat dissipation (if cooled), but not for holding in hands (just like a cpu cooler in a computer).

                                      Metal devices are worse to hold when heavy usage cranks up cpu heat:

                                      I had a 'pretty' Asus tablet, all aluminium, i hated it when i was playing games due to the heat of the metal.

                                      That's a fact and that's how i knew how much crap people are saying with their argueing over materials.
