[Galaxy S 5 General] BoneXDA:
Those two usually judge the book by the cover, so expect the "disappointment" of Samsung choosing IP67, wireless charging, battery/SD access, good grip and excellent durability over the fragile, sealed metal body, cause that's soooooo practical for a mobile device. ;)

A little camera review round-up....

Business Insider: Spectacular

http://www.businessinsider.com.au/samsung-galaxy-s5-review-2014-4

"The camera is spectacular, easily on par with the iPhone 5S camera and the Nokia Lumia 1020 camera, two of the best on the market. The camera shoots at 16 megapixels, but the real treat is something called live HDR, which lets you get a preview of what your photo will look like in HDR mode before you snap it. It results in some really nice photos, especially if lighting conditions aren’t very good."

CNet: One of the best on a smartphone

"Images taken on automatic mode are characteristically colorful and clear, especially those taken in ample natural light. The camera's continuous autofocus is as eyeblink-quick as Samsung claims (0.3-second), which gives you a greater chance of nailing that action shot. Low light has been a weak point for Samsung in the past, and the Galaxy S5 seems to have indeed improved photos taken without a flash in dim environments. They weren't quite as blurry, grainy, or dark as you'd get on the Galaxy S4. Video captured in 1080p HD resolution is equally beautiful and smooth. Colors pop. Video of my favorite testing subject, a BMX-style trick rider practicing outside of San Francisco's Ferry Building, faithfully reproduced his movements and the scene -- and that's the crux of what you need from smartphone video."

AndroidAuthority: Worty companion for a little extra

"ISOCELL seems to do the trick as far as quality is concerned, resulting in photos that feature great color saturation and good detail. Details are captured quite well, with a number of photos showing good sharpness even after zooming in, but this isn’t the case for every image. Lowering the overall lighting conditions will exacerbate the issue, which isn’t particularly surprising, but the camera does get some decent shots even in those less than ideal conditions. With a slew of features and settings at its disposal, the ISOCELL camera proves to be a worthy companion for anyone who wants to get a little bit extra out of their camera experience compared to other devices."

AnandTech: HTC high pixel size wins low-light, Samsung more pixels wins daylight

http://www.anandtech.com/show/7903/samsung-galaxy-s-5-review/2

"The GS5's low light performance obviously pales in comparison to devices with larger pixels like the M8 and especially the iPhone 5s. There's an obvious tradeoff here. Samsung delivers clearly better spatial resolution (as seen from our ISO12233 test shots), while HTC on the other hand offers better low light performance. Apple finds itself in the middle of the two with the iPhone 5s. Moving to the opposite end of the spectrum, this daylight shot gives us an example of where the M8 clearly loses out to the GS5. You lose all details in the tree, and there's quite a bit of noise in the sky on the M8. The GS5 however delivers a substantially better shot. The GS5 has a very fast and usable HDR mode.The GS5's HDR captures do a good job of retaining detail in the shadows while bringing in detail in the highlights."

Time.com: S5 aced where many flunk

http://time.com/52944/galaxy-s5-review/

"The news is much better when it comes to the phone’s 16-megapixel camera and its accompanying software.Some phones with cameras capable of superb image quality, such as Nokia’s Lumia Icon, still aren’t all that much fun to use: Laggy shutters and balky software gets in the way. I found the photos I took with the S5 to be a little on the soft side compared to the crispest ones I’ve seen from a smartphone, but very good overall. And the phone aced the photographic test that many competitors flunk: It let me take pictures I was happy with, as fast as I could snap them."

PhoneArena: Life-like, excellent camera

http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Samsung-Galaxy-S5-Review_id3639/page/3#3-

"The images produced by it have a wonderful detail level – everything looks exceptionally sharp and fine when viewing the images from a zoomed-out view. Viewing them in actual size reveals some areas where pixels kind of blend together, but why would you need to view 16 MP photos in actual size... Colors are more than realistic – neither too warm, nor too cold. The handset also seems to be doing a very good job with exposure – we noticed that it made the more preferable decision in some tricky situations, even if that meant cranking up the exposure in a very dark room, just so that we can actually see what's been there in that room, despite all the noise."

Telegraph: Consistently excellent

"The 16MP camera, for example, comes with an autofocus that is so fast you barely notice it happening. The days of missing the picture are almost over. High dynamic range makes the pictures look consistently excellent, too."

The Inquirer: Impressive outdoors, grainy indoors

http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/review/2338537/samsung-galaxy-s5-review/page/3

"When used in decent lighting, we found that the Samsung Galaxy S5's rear-facing camera captures images full of detail with accurate colours. It's also one of the fastest smartphone cameras we have used, with the autofocus firing into action almost immediately. Video capture is impressive too, thanks to the Galaxy S5's ability to capture 4K footage, which produces smooth and crisp video. The 16MP camera did show signs of struggling indoors though, and while it still manages to outperform most smartphone cameras on the market, we did notice noise and graininess creeping into images."

USA Today: Simpler, better

http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/.../samsung-galaxy-s5-smartphone-review/7423579/

"The 16-megapixel rear camera on the Galaxy S5 is excellent, especially on images captured with Samsung's real time HDR (High Dynamic Range) setting. The video (and audio) quality were also really good. (The front camera is 2-megapixels.) Auto-focusing is fast — about a third of the time compared with the Galaxy S4, Samsung claims. Overall, there are fewer shooting modes than before (though you can download more). Samsung has simplified the grid that represents the main camera-settings menu."

GSM Arena: Excellent all-rounder, stunning video

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s5-review-1064p9.php

"The Samsung Galaxy S5 camera is an excellent all-rounder. Photos taken in daylight have a commendable level of detail and, while processing comes on a bit strong, it shouldn't be visible unless you're viewing photos at 100%. For low-light shots, the Galaxy S5 finds a good middle-ground - it's not as good as the Nokia Lumia 1520, but produces perfectly usable shots. Videos shot with the Samsung Galaxy S5 offer stunning detail, especially if you shoot them at 2160p. Noise levels are low, color accuracy is good and there are few traces of aggressive post processing (unlike with the still camera)."
