I am happy with my 1 year 8 month old Nokia 701, with Frequent Heat up and then Battery Hang up. I bought it for INR 17,750 with another INR 750 for a 16GB microSD Card. Frequent Hangs in the phone makes me annoying, but there is no other go. Wanted to purchase Samsung Mobile instead.
See the Prices in here:
Samsung Galaxy S INR 15,550 2010 April
Samsung Galaxy S2 INR 24,750 2011 April
Samsung Galaxy S3 INR 33,359 2012 April
Samsung Galazy S4 INR 41,390 2013 April
Samsung Galaxy S5 INR 51,500 2014 April
In the Same Lines
Samsung Galazy S6 may cost 68,550 in 2015 April.
Just waiting and watching this go.
All the above phones are all plastic.
Why to Waste Hard Earned money for the plastic.
Samsung, At least try to make a phone with Stainless Steel Body, with all necessary features for an amount of INR 50,500. I will surely buy it. But now.. No Chance..

    Samsung is the best producer and Apple is the best wholesaler in the world. Samsung always making better in products with new technologies and innovations. Apple buy parts in whole sale from Samsung , Sony , Lg, Sharp, Toshiba etc and assemble them in China and sales 4 times more the actual price. This year Apple asked for ipad screen with Samsung and next ipad will use Samsung display. Actual smart phone price is giving by Xiaomi and Chinese branded companies. So Samsung is facing huge pressure from Chinese companies not from apple.

        in my opinion S5 almost look like s4 in looks and build quality, i was disappointed with my s4, because all the chromium plate at border is chipping itself after a 5-6 months use, now its look like a cheap plastic with black spots at border.

        recently i purchased LG G2, Really it impress me a lot,
        its looks way more expensive device even though it is plastic device. Build Quality is perfect.

            Samsung are great in marketing, as I’m using S4 and it is rubbish mobile phone all terms, I don’t believe how people get in queue to get a rubbish things??? I admit they are very good in marketing.

Always have been an android user, then the ipad mini came out, it got me, loved it. Then iOS 7 came out, worse decision I've ever made -- upgrading to it. My ipad mini no longer feels like apple (then). Might just be the ipad mini...

I work for a cellphone company and change my phone every 2 months.. by far i prefer samsung to other brands in terms of user interface.. but htc def look better!

                      you can always download the instant heart rate from the play store that give the exact heart rate i believe but even though i dont need to keep checking my heart rate and keep running after doctors i dont need a tons of applications that i cant even remember or use some of them during the day i dont need 128 gb that hardley can fill 32 gb i dont need to root and install rom's that does like the note 3 or s5 etc.. the good from iphone is the quality the look the stability of the software hardware easy to carry plus a good camera for sure but no need to have tons of settings that take ages to step up order to make a photo last and the important thing that the phone dont lag or takes long time to open an application even with 8 cores while some people looking and comparing benchmark and overclocking overheating it is just a mess.

                            Not bad, double release countries (vs S4) for 30% more sales.

                                  sony xperias flagship z2's main selling point is being a dust and waterproof !

                                  but it will not sell good, because of samsung s5, and lg g3

                                  sony is over pricing for its xperia z2(waterproof)

                                  lg is friendly pricing for even better lg g3!(waterproof)
                                  samsung has more fans for its s5(waterproof)

                                  sony will not win this year !
