There are no any bias fans-boys there, but only genuine users who always admit and express pros and cons of phones which they are using. I owned a Galaxy S5 around two weeks and sold it. Right now, I’m using an HTC M8. As a genuine user, I have certainly mentioned that the camera on HTC M8 is fairly poor. That’s the only drawback that I see on my M8. I never hesitate to express pros and cons of any phone which I’m using. I have been using smart phones since I was 14 and I have used many brands. I have no any favourite brand but I have given priorities for some brands.

      Indeed, you have the right to express anything what you have experienced. No one can deter anyone who expresses his/her idea here.

      Calm down guys.

Or I'm seriously suspicious he is getting payed by Samsung. He even goes as far as saying people who don't support Samsung should burn to hell. This is really a very very bad mentality. He has created his own church of Samsung and everybody who isn't a part of it is a heretic for him.

          One time he admits that the lag might be from to much memory using as another commenter said and he agreed on that and next time he says no there is never lag not even once.( Anynomous TmSCa is also me)

              hi you know there is a couple phone are equal to this phone if you compare it like samsung galaxy j/oneplus one/htc on(m8)/lg g pro 2 .
              s5 is better than the phones that i named about camera
              and a few add just but the basic are equal
              the phones are better than s4 with the ram
              s4 has 2gb ram but the others have 3gb ram and 1gb ram is a different to make the phone faster or slow it

                This guy did not have s5 and is a Samsung troller and marketer
                During last few years, they advertised about Samsung devices
                You can see this group of guys several Samsung phones user opinion pages

                                  AnonD-267673, 29 May 2014Display Type LED-backlit (IPS LCD), capacitive touchscreen... moreA 1080 * 1920 display at 6 inches can't have 471 ppi. That's going to have 368 PPI.

                                  The highest IP water rating is IPX8(X can be any number) and that tops at 1.5 meter for 30 min. So i think what you're demanding is not going to be fulfilled.

                                  Plus you're dreaming. A 100dB speaker can't be on a smartphone. Do you know, even portable speakers of the size of phone can't output 100dB. You need a home theater for that. My laptop has big JBL stereo speakers and they too max out at 90dB. So 100 dB from a phone is a dream. Do you know decibel system is logarithmic and a 100dB sound is 1000 times more intensity than 70 dB which is max sound of good speakers in mobiles.

                                  Although the 5000 mAh can be solved. Just purchase a phone with removable battery and search for zerolemon batteries. I think there are even close to 10000(10 thousand) mAh batteries available for s4 and s5.

                                  Keep dreaming, but your dreams aren't practical. Just go for the phone you like.

                                  Have a nice day

                                    Handy shortcuts I used in My G900F are the toolbox and multi window without installing any third app.
                                    I can really multi task without ending the current app and no lag at all!

                                      Activate multi window in S5 and if I want to hide the multi window arrow, just long press the capacitive back key and it will not be shown. Long press again anytime and it will appear as long as it is activated on the settings.

                                        My S5 is really amazing! I can hide apps and I can put confidential photos to private box without using any third party apps.
