Why is everyone calling this disappointing? Thats a genuine question, not looking for and argument.
Though i would like to know what people are doing with their phones for Samsung to add a feature like 30mins of water protection. The only surfaces ive ever dropped my phone on are solid ones and i dont know what its like in other countries, by in NZ our puddles arent normally bugger than 1-3cm deep, any larger and we call it a lake.

Needs a new look, same old design and style. 🙁
Marginal improvements and a high price tag.
Sony Xperia Z2 comes with 3Gb ram Vs 2Gb, Snapdragon 801 cpu and a 20mp camera.
All this for a far lower price tag of $600. Build quality is far better consisting of glass and metal.
I will be keeping my Z Ultra. 🙂

I somehow like that plastic tbh 😀 I do not give a crap from metal case for anything 😯 and IP67 is awesome.

Why does everyone argue about the 2gb ram? It is a phone for god sake!

As an S4 owner, I am not impressed one bit.

Bet you it will sell in the millions and probably be the top selling phone of 2014.

Even the usual Samsung fanboys on YouTube are having a really hard time attempting to explain why the S5 should be considered the best thing since sliced bread!
Their ramblings about the latest galaxy in the S series used to run into the half-hour mark, but today most of them are hard-pushed to reach the 5-minute mark! 😉

My two year Samsung Galaxy S3 contract ends on 3rd August so I was looking to get the S5 as an upgrade but I find the phone oddly unexciting as it just a refinement of the S4 which itself was just an improved S3. It still looks like a very good phone though but I'm drawn to the more stylish metal design of the HTC One and the iPhone. The iPhone 6 is rumoured to have a bezel-less 5" screen and I do prefer iOS over Android (I have an iPad 4 and iPad mini 2) so the S5 would be third choice. Still, plenty of time to decide yet. The only thing the S5 has that many other phones don't have is expandable storage but with the 16 GB model having only 8 GB of useable space it needs it!
