Dear Samsung

Not interested in an an inferior version of something that you already make.

I'm afraid Glam doesn't cut it when we are seeking high performance that beats the competition, so; QHD, 3gb, 32gb + sd, powered by the fastest chip, sd805 at least, and fast connection.

Not a lot to ask when you have them all boxed and ready to go.

    Lex79, 22 Aug 2014No where as far as I know, that's my point. Cat 6 is unique... moreSamsung will do that but first S6 Advanced extreme super duper ultimate master edition for kore must be appeared.

    I really hate samsung for this, I just canceled my contract with S5...

    Never Samsung again!

      Dave, 22 Aug 2014Are there any countries in europe that have Cat 6 speeds? I... moreAgain I don't believe so, am pretty sure cat 4 (150 mbps down) is the best anyone has been able to do outside of Korea so far, and even that is extremely rare. But if I'm wrong about that, can someone please correct me.

        Lex79, 22 Aug 2014This makes no sense whatsoever. If this article is corr... moreAre there any countries in europe that have Cat 6 speeds? I can understand if they launch it in those countries.

          karim salah, 22 Aug 2014So where cat6 is working other than korea? No where as far as I know, that's my point. Cat 6 is unique to Korea at present I believe.

          I could sort of understand it if Samsung chose to release a global 'Advanced' version of the S5 with a bump in ram to 3gb, Snapdragon 805 and a QHD screen. But the only increase this device will offer is useless outside of one city in one country.

I'm tired of Samsung selling phones to the US that has half the power of all the other phones they sell to the east. They have been playing that game and we are tired of it. Bring us the original phone not a wanna be phone. Meanwhile other countries get awesome phones. We also get hit with the price tag of the east phones. If I'm going to pay top dollar then sell us the original premium phone. But one with less ram and half the cores. Samsung did this to us with the GS4. If they have sold us the 8 core one then we would have never bought the 4 core one.

                I am very excited to see exynos 5430 performance on 2800mah battery.
                According to me a 25% increase in video playback and web browsing should be seen. But let's see what the true results will be.

                  What we want is a device with more than 16GB storage.
                  When are they going to ban such devices?
                  32GB + microSD should be the bare minimum.

                      This makes no sense whatsoever.

                      If this article is correct then the only 'improvement' is cat 6 Lte, but this device will likely be about 5 years old by the time the UK sees anything like cat 6 (hell the cat 3 rollout is happening at a snails pace)

                      Without a QHD screen, 3gb ram or any other tangible benefits this device is a completely unnecessary dud.
