      There are plenty of power options available today via battery cases and external power supplies.

      How is possible that Samsung has yet to design a mobile with unibody construction? Is the R&D team that out of touch? Image the internals of the S5 in an M8 or Z2 like housing. Now that might be a device worthy of waiting in line for.

          Have lived with the S5 for two days and it's been a smooth performer. The camera's the best on any device dating to when cameras on phones began to matter. It'll be an asset and a pleasure to have around this summer.

                that's because, S4 was launched in 60 or so countries last year while S5 launched in 125 countries. For real? 60 (?) vs 125? Come on sammy...

IPhones are at a great disadvantage when it comes to battery life, removable and extensive memory storage, camera specs (effects, special capture modes, auto-focus, etc. Even though many people may counter, saying that the simplicity of the device is what beats all other phones, but would you rather have an outdated phone with not as many personalization features and custom settings that fit your person, or would you like the convenience of checking your heart rate after a 2 mile jog?..

                        It would make sense if there were many companies in India who designed and manufactured their own smartphones for the global and local markets. Then there would be a need to protect local companies by putting heavy taxes on foreign import. All the local brands get their phones made in China, they simply put their badge/logo on them.

                            Well I am working in mobile phone store I think We sold more S4 than S5 when they were initially launched. Too expensive.

                            Of course, it always iphone which sells like hotcake(not saying iphone is better, just saying it has been sold better).

                            For HTC One and Sony Z2
                            Sorry, but out of 20~30 phones we sell each day, it will be lucky if we manage to sell more than 2~3. Actually Nokia Lumia has gradually suppressed the combined sales of HTC and Sony.

                              Do you think the world runs around apple?
                              The only thing i hate about Samsung is how expensive their phones have become! What happened to affordable phones?
                              Im moving to nexus or htc next time, Samsung is just becoming like apple.

                                The best smartphone ever made. You can't ask for a better done than galaxy S5.
                                Awesome speed and responsiveness is just amazing. First time I really enjoyed calling response of a galaxy or even a note phone...
