      Expected a lot more only camera got upgraded I think Lumia Icon for the first time beats Android with ages old Touchwiz Snapdragon 800 LG and Song Z2 even Z1 are better not forget other Chinese boys like Huawei and ZTE even locally made like voice xtreme 5 beats quite handsomely , wish Nokia on X lines produced better specs anyways still it's an upgrade over S3 but quite even with S4 , I am sticking to my iPhone if switched will go to either Sony Z1 or Z2 or Icon sorry Sammy you lost this time lets see what hTC and Apple comes with, waiting game like it is said All good things for those who wait ..,,

              Absolute disgrace of a phone. Thick bezels, plastic body, lower ppi compared to s4. Horrible icons . Epic fail. Seems like a downgrade compared to s4. Where is the metal body? The 2k screen? The all singing and dancing technology ? The edge to edge display ? This is 2014 and samsung have just released another heap of plastic sh*t. Very dissapointed in samsung. This phone seems like the end of all galaxys. Goodnight samsung hello apple and htc

                    Since when is a bigger phone a new model?!
                    Maybe someone at Samy reads this. Here's what I expected:
                    Same size as S4, both phone and screen, maybe at about 6, 5 mm thick, 16mp camera, UHD screen, On-Screen fingerprint reader (Like Moto had about 3 years ago!!!) No one wants to swipe... :( AND FULLY WORKING FEATURES!!! SPEND MORE TIME MAKING THE USEFULL ONES YOU HAVE WORK!!! Smart Rotation for example. I don't give a sh* about my heartrate... :|

                      "Samsung thought what the average user would like to own in terms of use."
                      1. Heart rate sensor = maybe, if a 70 year-old man wants to prepare for his death in the near future.
                      2. Fingerprint sensor = you won't be able to unlock the phone in any other way but swiping your registered finger only.
                      3. 2GB RAM.....seriously?!
                      4. IP67 = thumbs up for this one, people will love to call their friends while taking a shower.

                      And by the way, this was meant to be the next flagship for the most picky people (like me), who would not care about the price if they knew what they are paying for. I am totally disappointed, I guess i will be forced to buy myself the Sony Z2 (unfortunately...)

                          S5 has the Snapdragon 801 (MSM8974AB) not 800.

                                      im just glad they kept with 1080p screen. It just makes no sense to keep upgrading the resolution every time with no changes to the performance. S4 have some performance problems and this seems to not lag at all, from 1.9ghz to 2.5 its a lot of speed. they should've increased ram to 3gb and it would be ok
