              Samsung sold 40 percent fewer of the big-screen Galaxy S5 smartphones -- designed to take on Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus -- than expected = fail

                                        "And pushing beyond 1080p is unlikely to produce anything but extra battery and GPU strain"

                                        This line sounds like "DOS addresses only 1 Megabyte of RAM because we cannot imagine any applications needing more." or "No one will need more than 637 kB of memory for a personal computer".

                                        As for the rest of the review, it's nothing short of AMAZING. GSMArena is a really great site. Thank you for all your hard work
