    [deleted post]It is not rocket science to figure out which handset is LTE capable and which is not. Gsmarena has repeatedly pointed the fact that any samsung flagship or phone with a qualcom snapdragon processor has LTE connectivity, while their exynos version does not, same goes for 4K video recording. I dont get why are you pmsing here, 4k isnt even practical right now, unless u hv a 4k display unit at home and gigaloads of memory on ur device. And since this info was so common, it must not have been hard to look for the processor on the device box, every manufacturer puts it there for some reason. Get some common sense and try to filter words before u criticize someone. If your friend got an inferior device, he shud hv just looked at the device box, they show every feature.
    And at this day and age, everyone knows, snapdragon = LTE, Exynos = No. Unless i m mistaken, in which case correct me.

            [deleted post]You dumb troll , on the z2 revieuw they gave good comments and even on other phones where does this hate comes from ? You don't have to be mad because you payed 700 Euros or whatever money because it's not the best phone . It's a good phone but not better than Samsung s5 !

                            I'd take the S5 for it's better audio output, since I only use my Hifiman HE-500's for enjoying music on the go. Z2 has the better looks, but it does not make up for the clean audio output I need. I seriously hate Samsung's Knox, but I'd rather live with that and enjoy the music more. :)

                                    These fanboy wars, I swear!

                                    I can't go onto any VS battle with out someone screaming their head off about a product which they think is "superior" to that one!

                                    At the end of the day, it's up to you to what you want.

                                    Like Sony? Get Z2.
                                    Like Samsung? Get S5.
                                    Like fitness? Get S5
                                    Like sleek design? Get Z2.

                                    It's what you want, and what you want that only matters.
