Also they lie about the Maximum brightness. It is only achieved for content that contains 1% white, i.e. useless for web browsing, which typically is around 60%-90% or Videos (40%-60%). Their article is misleading at best - and they haven't responded to my email - I took the time to inform them about their untrue claim. Of course all articles quote Displaymate and spread incorrect Information about brightness levels...

Havign said that, I still think the Display on the S5 is excellent - the best on the market (except that it kills battery outdoors), and has sufficient brightness, I just don't approve of amsung's foul tactics, as it forces me to re-establish truth on every Website that publishes the same crap!

        Handled the Galaxy S5 yesterday for quite a long time at a show event and I must say I am impressed. Anyone want to know anything just pop a question here and I will answer honestly stating the good and the bad.

Even I was thrown away with pictures and all and was using Note3 and Lumia 1520 But once I played with at the store I knew it I will have to have this in my hands. So I gave up my Note3 and got myself S5. And now I am getting more and more interested as the time progresses.
          I am waiting this set to hit worldwide on 11 April and once people will start to buy it then it will be different game ball altogether. Cheers to all

                      And I am not stupid not to have an expensive phone a bumper cover.
                      Nothing happened, not even a scratch.

                              Hi All, I just got my hands on my S5 Snapdragon Edition and I must say it's an experience I will never forget. After seeing the show put on by Sams in Barcelona, I was not sure should I go for it or not. But when I got my hand on it and felt it played with it selfie with it movied musiced with it gamed with it so I am all out to say it that this is the best device Sams come up with to date. I will not say further just will wait for others to get there devices in there hands and then I am saying it rite now you all will see a different perspective from all. Until that time cheers to everyone..
