well z2 uses the same camera module as teh z1 :P

i think the only difference between Z1 and Z2 are,

larger battery

slightly larger screen

new chipset

sony has been doing this a bit. z1 was similar to z, z2 similar to z1.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeizo:
Yes, thats why assumed the S5 camera really is superior :p

So, why is everyone complaining about the S5, not toned down anonymous plain aluminium as the good folks seem to crave?

Across the ditch, you can't even get the Moto X in NZ stores. You have to buy it online, and usually $NZ800+, some places $NZ900 (to put that into perspective, that can buy you an S4 and accesories or a low to mid range notebook).

How is this trolling ....?

The guy said he wants front stereo speakers and metal body + 3gigs of ram ...

All I said is this type of device exist already for a year except with 2gb of ram ...how is that trolling lol.

90% of the ppl in this topic complain about the new large bezel vs gs4 and most of them compare it with the LG g2 ...are they trolling ?

On the other hand I never said anything about large bezels cuz I don't mind them ...

Hello there,

- No new design

- I don't need Fingerprint sensor

- I don't need pulse sensor

- I don't need a waterproof smartphone

- Only 0,1 inch greater display (Why making a greater display, but only 0,1 inch?)

- No new display resolution

- The new Touchwiz and updated apps will be portet to other Galaxy Devices (like my Galaxy S4)

Disappointed? Sadly, yes.

For me it's a Galaxy S4 with waterproof case and other useless stuff. Sorry.

Right now are just rumors, but we will see. So be kinda weird to see S series bashed by an F series. I know that one day Samsung will need to find other letter (can't be Samsung Galaxy S10, S11 and so), but I don't think they would release an S series followed by an F series. But who knows, Samsung surprised is with the S4 Qualcomm S800 and Active too.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankgreimes:
Knew Samsung had to have something better in their lineup. As of right now the price performance ratio of the S4 - which will come down soon - won't for sure be beaten by the S 5 so having a new flagship makes sense.

I have talked to a few friends of mine most are still having their S 2 or 3 or are coming from other manufacturers and the overwhelming consensus was to go for the S 4. I think people are wiling to pay a premium but not for only small upgrades.

What about ISOCELL?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demlasjr:
I've seen no difference (well, maybe there is 10 % difference) between a normal photo and an ISOCELL one. There was a photo on Android Authority I think, comparing a normal photo with ISOCELL. However, it's supposed to be good on low low-light photos.

Btw, was Samsung saying something about it? I don't think that S5 have it.

thinking that they are covering their back(not sure if this is the expression in English) woth knox 2.0. In fact the people who buy high end phones are people who can afford more than one of these phones and people who want to have a high end device to improve their old phone here in xda. With knox they avoid(only for a month or so :idiots: ) the posibility of old devices getting new apps and they increase their sells with the ones who don't want to wait.

[MENTION=4914682]Shan89[/MENTION]: Really?? Do you want me to point out your pretty obvious hate for anything related to Samsung or S5? A quick look at the HTC thread is obvious for anyone. Only doubt I have is -- whether you're a bigger HTC fanboy or a Samsung hater. You along with few other members in HTC forums are the biggest Samsung haters I have come across. I watch all forums (though I necessarily don't post everywhere else). But you guys are a totally different breed. You will troll Samsung forums and then gloat about your trolling in your HTC threads. The very fact that your HTC thread probably has more news about S5 than M8 recently is a clear indication of that.

So, avoid posting your drivel here, we already get that a lot from many posters. Do feel free to post even more diatribe about Samsung in the HTC forums. I think your mates enjoy it a lot.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shan89:
If I'm making fun out of Samsung building s5 being probably the ugliest phone ever built on HTC forums what does that have to do with this here ? am I doing it here ? No I'm not if I pointed obvious or mentioned somethithing that already exist isn't trolling ...

Besides I've been also bragging new hdr on gs 5 so it isn't really all "making fun of gs5" why do you even point finger at me , the whole xda site is speaking of gs5 being a miss.

I bet even yourself don't like the new design of it and probably every other living person.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shan89:
Well Yeah , anyway @ Samsung ..

I fail to understand , we pay top notch money for flagship devices right ? And we expect them to be the most premium it can get for that kind of money not in range of quality of Mid/low end.

If the excuse is "durability " **** with that , us who pay for top notch phone or "cars" are aware glass / metal can break / dent , but then again no one would buy expensive cars if they can't afford to repair or replace them ;)

When you pay top notch for the car you get top notch materials design ...it's beyond my understandings why isn't Samsung following this route , Sony or HTC offer much better design / materials then Samsung and it's in the same category / price range.

You gotta wonder where would Samsung be if they don't spend billiards on marketing ... huawei/zte category? ...better invest that money in materials / design for **** sake !

Now everyone can call me a"troll" for wanting better for the price we pay !
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeizo:
Well, we are totally different kind of users, you use it to enjoy it like a glass of of wine or look at it as a work of art. I'm only interested in using it as a helpful tool in my daily activities, I don't give sh*t about "premium" but expect to pay a little more for great usability and high performance. I guess most consumers are a little more like me, well most people just wants a smartphone end of story, and those a little more like you hanging at hardware forums are well not enough in numbers to seriously affect sales figures ... if Samsung has calculated its strategy correctly ....
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankgreimes:
Can you replace the battery on your HTC ? No you can't heck it doesn't even offer a micro SD slot and guess what ? Sony would be selling way more Xperias if they dropped their stupid glossy glass and went with leather (something removable).

Samsung is a selling a lot of smartphones, because well.....they unlike others get it right. Also what are you doing here other than trolling, you aren't providing any helpful comparisions other than HTC this and HTC that, there is already a HTC forum for that here ?

If it comes down to deciding between looking nice and real horsepower, removable battery plus top of the line hardware I'd always pick the latter.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karmuh:
The problem is, those of you who are disappointed are likely the ones listening to every rumor. Just like those that still believe there's going to be some sort of "premium" S5 coming out in the next few months...sorry to say, but expect more disappointment.

The others that are disappointed are likely those who expect HUGE changes from 1 year to the next. Sorry, but that boat has sailed a long time ago for the phone industry. Whether we like it or not, these incremental updates are realistic and should be expected by now.

Stop listening to unfounded rumors and keep your expectations realistic. You won't be disappointed if you do that :)

My biggest concern is locked down itll be. Safe assumption moreso than then the 4 which will really suck. With every device sammy releases its more locked down than the previous.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdlopez83:
SGS3 here. I skipped the S4 because it lacked inovation and will certainly skip this because of the 2gig ram and the KNOX. ALthough it can be routed, you can only root the exploit on the s4 leaving the new goodies untouched when a new bootloader comes is necessary(above and beyond KK). The lack of dev is a big one.

This phone is a fail because of it and I considered myself a loyal samsung customer until i saw this garbage. Looking forward to samsung redeem themselves with an F line so that I can skip the S5.

If this is Samesung's flagship, they are looking to lose business and the better spec'd phone will obviously prevail here.

They blew it. im sure everyone is looking for the next best thing after this let down.

Its not a disappointment, the rumors ruin the final product, as always, we reach a point where we expect that new realeases (sooner than ever(annoying)) double the specs or even got sci-fi features.

So why do you think we are all here rather than in an Apple forum? I always carry a spare fully-charged battery in my wallet, just in case.

If Apple did offer such things, then that might have swayed me a little more in their direction - but it was one of the factors which pushed me towards Android. That and the fact that I want to control my own device, not let the manufacturers dictate how I use it.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vbetts:
Now I'm not defending Samsung in their choice of specs, but there is one thing people have to remember.

These are computers, they are tiny computers but computers none the less.

That means they follow the same patterns as a regular computer ecosystem follows, development for hardware is slowing down. We're at standstill right now until something revolutionary comes out to pave the way for more advancements.

x86 cpu's had 64-bit for a long time, and there was nothing to take advantage of it for awhile. 64-bit has finally come to ARM, but there isn't anything taking advantage of it.

We're still making dual and quad core cpus in the x86 world. Arm CPU's are pretty much standard as dual core(Not Arm11 cores), and quad cores are coming up more and more as well now.

There are CPU's that have more than 4 cores out there, but they aren't as widespread or cost effective. Same with ARM cpus.

Both ARM and x86 face one big problem, and that is they are very memory limited! There is only one supported socket out there with more than dual channel memory, and that's LGA2011! A lot of mobile devices still use ddr2! Low end x86 tsablets are using 2gb of ddr3 memory now, we're going backwards with memory instead of forward! There are ddr5 modules out there, why doesn't anyone use them?!

And there's the S5's problem right there. It is a good phone, but for people who own the S4 or even like me who own the S3 unless your a corporate worker that requires the encryption of Knox, there's no huge advantage or need to upgrade. They're incremental upgrades, not big ones.

Samsung is following in the footsteps of Apple, where no matter what part of the world they have a following that will buy the new thing every year. I'm going to upgrade to the S5 probably anyways because of work, but I think I would probably consider the G Pro 2 over this.
