Samsung's Galaxy S5 is a solid, if unsurprising smartphone. It's fast, powerful, feature-packed and in no way would you say it is a step-back for Samsung. It's just that it feels like a small step forward. The amazing Super AMOLED display is the except...

Abstract: The Samsung Galaxy S5 is an improvement on last year's model in almost every respect, although Samsung still needs to wean itself away from silly gimmicks.I'd hesitate to say that the Samsung Galaxy S5 has a genuinely attractive design — it's still quite ...

Fantastic screen, Great camera, Waterproof (IP67), Biometrics
