In my eyes the Galaxy S5 is a good looking phone. The backside is not a fingerprint-magnet for example - but personally I gonna buy a TPU-case anyway. So who cares? I like the unique combination of water/dust proof with replaceable battery, with all the advantages the latter option gives you. I also like all the small changes like faster camera start-times, fingerprint-lock, menu-key changed to Recent apps (finally) and best of all: the new "gear fit" wristwatch-option. Overall its just seems to be the most promising flagship-phone out there.

AnonD-77892, 09 Mar 2014I mean is to run smoothly as Z2.LOL. So now anything Samsung is bad, in your universe. You're even "using" Sony to just counter your point across. Well, you can't say that with what you actually use - an iPhone 5c, a mid-ranged phone according to you:

Tcool, 09 Mar 2014Come on, you said you are "travelling the world" ... moretcool your being presumptions about my radio listening habits. Since leaving Australia I've been in the middle east, Europe, Africa, Europe again, every country in Central America, And I go to south America Tuesday and likely to stay there the next year or so before moving on to the US and Canada. I did study Spanish for 3 weeks in Guatemala but there are many countries on my list where English is spoken but music is a international language you dont aways need to understand the words to enjoy it. I travel as light as possible I don't want extra devices and chargers and I ran mainframe computers for IBM for 12 years so I'm not tech clueless, I use my S2 for more than just radio ; )
metal case? Ok you've made a fair point Id cover it but I value robustness and suspect a metal case would resist torsional effects better than plastic and provide longevity and I'd be happy to live with a small weight increase for that.

Anonymous, 09 Mar 2014I'd pay extra for a inbuilt radio as long as it was a reaso... moreHonestly i don't know how it is in other countries . Because in my country we have a 3g coverage everywhere and in big cities we have 4G and data is not for free but affordable . But you can always listen data via website's your data consumation should not be too high for just listening (streaming) it's not like video streaming . There will always be solution just be independant dont wait until samsung put's a radio cuz you wil wait for ever i think :)

Why would you buy a 700 dollar phone that's expansive ! so if you can buy a 700 dollar phone i just cannot see how you cannot afford Data , + spotify can be used now or just download your own playlist at home and start your own radio ... no offense but it's 2014.

Anonymous, 09 Mar 2014we dn't need heart rate monitor and finger print scanner...... moreYou don't need a fingerprint and a hearsensor stop acting like your talking for a groupe of person . The FM is in for your own interest . And S5 will and does not have it so go check on other brands man that's the true reality .
