I will upgrade from my S2 to S5. Its been 3 years and not a problem so far with my S2. I had a Nokia 71E before I change to the S2. Samsung build and use of material can be better.

    for me the only thing i like about this phone is the finger print sensor but the same bad design and same mono speaker at the back of the phone and i isn't water proof it is water resistance that mean if you want to took a picture under water you cant go for the z1 and the same amoled desply mean over color

      No Native AC3 support ? Why they would take something away is beyond me especially for playing media. Sure you can get another app to play it via software but its a pain.

        Noname, 25 Feb 2014Ugly design, similar specs, and bigger is not really better. S4 was already the limit in terms... morei think u need to read the specification again because there are a lot of differences and new features.

              Ugly design, similar specs, and bigger is not really better. S4 was already the limit in terms of size. A complete disappointment.

I thought they'll at least put 3GB or be the first (as usua... morei don't know what is the android phone u r using now,that needs more than 2gigs of ram,but as i know only the note 3 might need more ram because of extensive multitasking ,other high end phones will work perfectly even with just 1.5 gigs,but for marketing reasons some manufacturers will put larger rams to draw some costumers.

                        Only 2GB of RAM, are they serious? I thought they'll at least put 3GB or be the first (as usual) to put at least 4GB.

                          This phone sucks. It is ugly as hell. Samsung is going down. If I was Samsung addicted...now it is time to move on. Poor support, poor updates...poor Samsung!

                            Honestly don't see why so many are hating on this phone. Samsung wanted to design an inexpensive phone with upgraded features and performance and they did just that

                              I'm utterly disappointed at Samsung. I expected an improvement on my GS4 but nothing interesting. Ugliest high-end smartphone(can't they honestly employ somebody else for design of their phones), poor battery compared to, say, Sony Z2 etc, more gimmicky features than we expected on successor of the excellent GS4. I'll rather upgrade with Z2 or latest HTC, despite hating the non-remmovable battery on Sony phones(should be done away with) and plasticky screen on Sony phones(good news with no factory-fitted protective film on Z2), having last used a Sony with Xperia S that had freezing and slow-response issues.

                                        Yet I can not wait lg g3 coming in May this year. who will have 2k HD display, Snapdragon 805, with 2,7 ghz quad core cpu, Adreno 420, 16 mps ois camera, 3GB of RAM, FM radio and much more,. LG has always had innovation in technology, how those mighty rewards and recognition to many fairs. s5 disappointment and Samsung as a company crazy is the one who buys this joke of a phone, just wasting money, when only a few months a better phone
