Abstract: Samsung's flagship smartphone for 2014 is the Galaxy S5 but does it have what it takes to fend off tough competition from rivals? From a design point of view, little has changed since the Galaxy S4. The device looks almost identical and much like Samsun...

Abstract: The Samsung Galaxy S5 is now available, but if you want an SGS5 with added bling then the Copper Gold edition might have caught your eye. Frankly, it'd be hard for anyone to ignore, whether you're a fan of the different colour finish or not. But before y...
Make no mistake, this phone is going to be very popular. It has plenty of cool innovations and decent features, from the efficient fingerprint scanner to the heartbeat monitor. And more usefully it includes improved battery life, good water resistance an...
Abstract: However, seemingly taking tips from Apple's iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S , the Galaxy S5 doesn't offer a huge upgrade compared to last year's flagship smartphone, with Samsung instead adding only incremental tweaks and features....
winner: The Galaxy S5 Having won five rounds to the iPhone 5S' three, the Galaxy S5 is the winner of our head to head review. Offering a more rugged design, along with superior display, camera and battery life the Galaxy S5 is one of the finest smartphon...
Cracking camera, improved battery life, useful fingerprint scanner and neat health software.
The design will divide users, and the innovations may be too few to please
It feels good, it works at speed and it lasts longer between charges. Some will dislike the mottled back cover or the fingerprint scanner, but this is a highly effective, speedy phone with a lot to recommend it....
Great performance, crystal-clear display, good camera, decent portfolio of security services
Touchwiz, average battery life
The Galaxy S5's top-end components and portfolio of security services make it one of the most enterprise-friendly Android smartphones ever made. However, needless customisations from Samsung will undoubtedly hamper its ability to upgrade to newer Android ...
Fast, powerful processor, Clean, redesigned interface, Waterproof and dustproof, Built-in fingerprint scanner, heart-rate monitor, Feels comfortable to hold, Competitive camera, MicroSD support, Removable battery with new Ultra Power Saver Mode
Stale design, Poor speaker quality, No KnockOn feature, Audio jack is on top of phone, Camera refocus is a gimmick, Packed with Samsung services
The Galaxy S5 is a fantastic phone. It doesn't look different, but there's a lot to love. For the first time, Samsung is innovating like Apple, instead of just mimicking it. Last year we got a bunch of new apps, and with the Galaxy Pro tablets at CES we...

Beautiful screen, powerful processor, slim build, lots of extras
Plastic casing won't be to everyone's taste, fingerprint scanner not as good as iPhone
The Samsung Galaxy S5 isn't quite the leap ahead that the S4 was. It has an enhanced screen, processor and camera plus an improved OS, not to mention fripperies like the fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor. But these are all incremental changes t...
Amazing screen, Great battery life, Hugely powerful
Creaky design, Unnecessary heart rate monitor, Slow background de, focus
The Samsung Galaxy S5 is a great phone - the problem is we're now in a world where stunning smartphones are becoming the norm. Samsung seems to banking on the fact it knows there will be some people out there who will buy its devices no matter what, else...
