Stay with your LG and be happy.

No doubt you don't even have a Samsung phone or owned one.

    Anyway 5.5" is way too big for me.
    No physical menus buttons can be an inconvenient for now.
    And polycarbonate is the same across all brands, so there's no "cheap like" for one especially or they are all.

      Whatever phone Samsung will make, some fan boys will say it is the best and will buy it.
      My last three phones were great Samsung phones, but this one is so disappointing looking like an old phone,i will switch to LG G3 for sure next month.
      No doubt Note4 or S6 will be great, but S5 is terrible.

          I think he didn't even see that 3G bands are different there, hence CDMA / USA.

          But maybe gsmarena could merge the specs instead of creating different pages for some radio difference.

            I personnaly have a S5 since 13th April and i pretty much like it, see my previous posts answering to people with "real" questions and not dumb trolling / bashing around.

              Seriously? Come with solid arguments next time. Don't waste my time replying to "this" anymore.

                Too many trolls decided to go on war this time against Samsung.

                And as someone pointed out, in LG G3 leaks no one is complaining about plastic materials of G3 (and other G series).

                          007 , 03 May 2014There are millions of sammy fans out there .. Why cant you ... moreSuperbbbbbbb phone, yah not so beautiful interms of appearance but inside the hood still it par over its kind, or maybe better, suppose if it came to a 32 gb variant and 3 gigs or ram well I must say this S5 will be phone of the year, sorry apple fans its 2014 and still you cant send a file via bluetooth while android phones like this phone can share via beam/wifi direct, otg etc.. all hail android!! Sammy please if your going to release another flagship phone consider the design and build quality so it would be more balance, and please dont make other companies sue you for a patent issue, there is a new saying " If you cant beat them, sew them!! " if u know what I mean :D

                            It should have 4GB of R.A.M and a better qual core processer. And the battery should have atleast 5000%^&5

                                  That will be a mismatch.

                                  He should pick the G900F to compare.

                                      Can't wait to own this as I'm upgrading from a low-end phone. Have compared all the flagship specs and this seems to be the most value for money, it also helps that I use a note 10.1 so can somewhat predict Samsung's capabilities for real-world use.

                                      I do wonder about the low ratings though. This phone is the most viewed, almost double the next one on the list, on this site and yet is rated low? How come no one cares about the best rated phones and yet care enough to go here and rant? XD

The S5 has the same CPU as Z2 wich is Snap 801 ! Better Water ? What the hell are you trying to say ?? Next time when you make a " useful " review try reading more :) . A lot of people hate the S5 but when you actually own one it is very cool and it is very fast ! HTC M8 , Z2 and S5 same phone with diferent desing the specs are the same except for the Z2 with 3gb ram , so what ? If you like your phone and if that phone is the best for you nobody gives a shit if you have 3gb ram or not or if your phone has Octacore or Dualcore :)
