Who cares about Design?
Most of us put nice looking covers on our phones XD.
front facing camera is balls
I've seen people claiming gs5 build is bad and touch wiz is laggy. I've been using s5 for about 3 months. I can say phone feels really solid in the hand. I don't think smartphones must be made of metal instead of polycarbonate with sacrifices the functionality (removable battery, waterproofing) for the sake of looks. You'll be using a cover to protect that shiny aluminium body anyway. As for the lagging I can honestly say I found none at all with heavy usage during this period. And as far as I phones go I don't want to waste a fortune over a phone with 2012 specs + #bendgate
Samsung doesn't care about the design since their income is generated elsewhere and they simply don't care how badly it's design as long as people are buying it thanks to their marketing.
Batteries on Samsung phones are horrible…
+Gorf Mast i phone crowd isn't a crowd anymore like almost all peeps are getting attracted to android system…
Everyone hates plastic covers i like them cause it means a remobable battery and i jist feel like its better.
Im sorry but as long as a phone had a SD card idc about looks. 32 gb or 64 gb is simply not enough when apps are becoming upwards to 5 gb of space I mean I have 1729 songs that would destroy the space on a non sd card having phone
sucks 1234 to 5
I'm actually loving the dimpled back plate. It gives me a good amount of confidence that I'm not going to drop it. Even with just two fingers supporting the back. That's something no previous phone I've owned has done for me. Even just considering looks, It's pretty decent, not something that bothers me in the slightest.
Smartphone WARS!
You probably have smartphone, for my dissertation I really need your side!
Please fill out, it should takes no more than 6minutes!

I still am waiting for the note 4 , I have high hopes for the note 4 (I hope Samsung doesn't ruin the note 4s design)
I see why your top 10 phones of 2014 spring was so bad.
These are phones. They are not a purse. Who cares if it is shiny and matches your earrings. Samsung is plastic and that is good. It doesn't break when you drop it. Who ever thinks that metal is a better design should go with the iphone or htc one. You obviously have more money than cares. If you want a good phone that will last, the plastic is much better.
simply its android -_-
if it was not android am the first who buys it
Good Bye Samsung Galaxy s3 and Hello to Samsung NOTE 3
People really complain about the camera taking one second to load? Wow.
The nominees for the company that brings the most shitty looking high end phone of 2014 are:
1) Samsung
2) Samsung
3) Samsung
And the winner is…. 🙂
I totally agree. I'm already getting fed up with the regular design, expected something better. Have been admiring HTC for their design though I still appreciate my Note.
Pssh… Meh :/
Apple has always been attacked for making sheeps out of its fans but Samsung seems to have taken over now…
Man these people running out of ideas. Every phone looks the same lately no big upgrades just tweeks I'm disappointed in technology these days
he said everything I thought
im not alone!!!!!!!!!
Which phones are better than S5?
Although the samsung galaxy s5 back cover may be ugly, it offers 1 of the best in hand feel I've gotten from any smartphone so far..
still, samsung cant beat z2 😀
