A good physical size — smaller than the HTC One (M8)

TouchWiz is still awful
There's too much packed in
But at least lessons have been learned — Settings app is no longer the hot
Disorganised mess it was with the Galaxy S4

TouchWiz
Big
Creaky design
Cumbersome software
Slow background defocus
The Galaxy S5 is a only small upgrade over the Galaxy S4. The fingerprint scanner can be confusing to use
And the heart-rate monitor is a niche feature at best. In some regions
The Galaxy S5 costs significantly more than rival top-rated handsets
Australians are given virtually no control over customizing their handset
Battery life needs work
The occasional slow down tends to rear its head in the worst possible way
IP67 dust and water resistant build, Fingerprint scanner, Fast Phase Detection autofocus, Heart rate sensor and preloaded fitness apps, Great battery life
Same old plastic design, New features could have been better implemented, Bigger and heavier than Galaxy S4, Weak audio
The Galaxy S5 is armed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, clocked at 2.5GHz, putting in on par with HTC's One M8, and slightly faster than Sony's Xperia Z2, which has a lower 2.3GHz clockspeed. The new processor uses an improved 28nm HPm process, w...

Abstract: Sing when you're winning, they say. Certainly Samsung is sticking to the same tune, when you see how it has barely altered anything in its latest Galaxy S5.If last year's Galaxy S4 seemed like a repeat of the same formula that has propelled the company to...
In our eyes, there is absolutely no contest. The Xperia Z2 is a far better device than the S5. A better display, design, battery life, camera, UI and a better IP68 protection that has been proven to work.The S5 does have the fingerprint sensor, and a fast...
Abstract: When Samsung launched the Galaxy S4 last year, we found many of its software features to be innovative, but ultimately gimmicky and unnecessary for the majority of people. Samsung seems to recognize that many felt the same way, and for the S5, has re-focu...
Abstract: It isn't even the end of the year yet and already many of us are predicting features for the next smartphones and devices that haven't even been announced yet. This includes the Samsung Galaxy S5 which already has many rumours saying that it could have a ...

Gorgeous Screen, Excellent Battery Life, Fast Performance
Unoriginal Design, Camera needs fixing
The Samsung Galaxy S5 is surely an upgrade over the Galaxy S5 is almost every single way- better screen, better camera, longer lasting battery and a faster processor. That being said, I think the Galaxy S4 continues to be a great phone, especially after...
Excelente pantalla, Certificación IP67, Cámara con rendimiento excelente en escenas con buena luz
Diseño industrial y materiales lejos de la competencia, Cámara con bajo rendimiento en escenas con poca luz, TouchWiz tiene que mejorar, sí o sí
respecto al diseño, vemos que Samsung no ha querido arriesgarse a tocar terrenos desconocidos y decide optar por lo que le sale mejor; un cuerpo confeccionado en plástico con algunos toques de personalidad que lo tratarán de diferenciar del resto. Y dec...
