Hi all, I have a slight issue with regards to the battery life on the S5.
Usage is extremely high, the battery runs down very quickly.
I had 40% last night as I went to bed but when I woke up only had 11% left. Not sure how I can check which apps are using my battery-is that possible to find out?

    CRAP - PURE CRAP!

    Had an LG Optima G and decided to upgrade. This is no upgrade, this is a toy, designed with bloatware and kid's game features.

    Leaves everything open. PayPal app will NOT run properly on this device with secondary authentication - major security issue.

    Do NOT like their fingerprint app and the fact that it ties to a cloud account. Major SECURITY FLAWS there.

    Too many games and bloatware options which keep forcing themselves on the user.

    Taking it BACK and RETURNING IT! Never again!

                                  I'm very satisfied with my galaxy s5. I buyed it before 2 months and I don't have any problem with it. I think that he is better than lg g3, z2 and htc one m8,because s5 have many specifications... The battery life is gery good... I'm happy !!!

                                      Fellas u need to worry about ur screen
                                      Life span of a superamoled is just too low
                                      After that u will start to see some minor black pixels
                                      Appearing as a line or points
                                      My s4 is start having them
                                      And same was happened to my galaxy s2
                                      Gud luck

                                        ali, 30 Aug 2014being a big fan of samsung i proud of superamled technology... moreLOL. Are you high? ??

                                        I have tried a z2 and z2 display doesn't even compete with m8, let alone s5.

                                        If you want more saturation, try to keep the phone on dynamic mode.

                                        The video on z2 was more clear. How is that possible as both have 1080p.

                                        I doubt your testing. The best LCD out there is the SLCD3 unit of htc m8 and that too is nothing in front of s5.

                                        X reality is not a screen technology. It's just a software that boosts colors and makes them unnatural.

                                        LCD can never match the viewing angles, blacks, contrast and sunlight legibility of AMOLED panels. So please stop misleading people here and go praising your z2.
