The editors didn't like

  • If you want change Samsung is a good way to go
  • Looks a bit cheap compared to the competition
  • 4K recording but no playback
  • Expensive
  • But then again all premium phones are
  • While the software has gotten better
  • It's still well behind HTC's in terms of user-friendliness
  • And it's miles away from Motorola's and stock Android. There's just too much lag to be forgivable in a phone with so much horsepower under the hood. S Health
  • Ugly
  • Screen has issues with color accuracy and grayscale banding
  • Poor NAND performance
  • Ugly design
  • Mediocre speaker
  • Poor fingerprint scanner implementation
  • The design will divide users
  • And the innovations may be too few to please
  • Touchwiz
  • Average battery life
  • Display
  • Unfaithful colours
  • Fingerprint scanner could be better
  • Some lags and overheating in certain games
  • FM tuner has disappeared
  • Camera not great in low light
  • Average sound
  • Erratic Finger Sensor
  • Plastic design
  • Creaky design
  • Unnecessary heart rate monitor
  • Slow background de
  • Focus
  • The Galaxy S5 is a only small upgrade over the Galaxy S4. The fingerprint scanner can be confusing to use
  • And the heart-rate monitor is a niche feature at best. In some regions
  • The Galaxy S5 costs significantly more than rival top-rated handsets
  • Fingerprint sensor
  • Design doesn't quite cut it
  • Some confusing UI decisions
  • Plastic build
  • Navigation of the user interface feels slower than it should be
  • Slow background defocus. Folders slow on onpening
  • Design feels dated with little change in two years. Rear cover and fake chrome bezel will not appear to everyone. Heart rate monitor seems to have little use
  • A design that few will find beautiful
  • UI can still be confusing
  • Not the best camera indoors and in low light
  • Too big for some
  • Slightly delicate
  • Unreliable sensors
  • The heartrate monitor is unnecessary
  • Fingerprint scanner is inconsistent
  • Software features can be overwhelming
  • 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 built in software is getting a bit much
  • Camera struggles in certain situations
  • The launcher is a bit laggy to launch folders and return home
  • Overall feel isn't as good as its flagship competitors
  • Rear speaker is little odd sounding at times
  • Not the prettiest of 2014 phones
  • Processor still decent
  • But behind the times
  • Plastic casing won't be to everyone's taste
  • Fingerprint scanner not as good as iPhone
  • Touchwiz can feel overbearing in places
  • Lacks a premium feel
  • Plastic chassis
  • Poor speaker
  • Why pay £570 for a plastic device?
  • TouchWiz UI is mostly a hindrance
  • Oh
  • The bloatware!

  • Très bonnes performances, Qualité de l'écran / Photo, Interface plus sobre, Résistant à l'eau
  • Design pas très heureux, ROM gourmande en stockage interne, Applications doublons, Disparition de la radio FM
  • Depuis quelques années, Samsung nous a habitués à des mises à jour prévisibles de leurs produits phares, et le Galaxy S5 ne rompt certainement pas cette tendance. Le S4 était un S3 en mieux, et il en va de même pour le nouveau vaisseau amiral du construct...

  • Une suite logicielle très complète, Performances très haut de gamme, Etanchéité, Un écran AMOLED meilleur que jamais
  • Des menus encore un peu fouillis, Finition de la coque
  • Le Galaxy S5 réunit tous les ingrédients d'un succès commercial. Des caractéristiques au top des possibilités actuelles, dans la même cour qu'un HTC One (M8) ou qu'un Sony Xperia Z2, avec pêle-mêle, un écran Full HD AMOLED très convaincant, un SoC Snapdra...

  • Très bon écran, Excellent appareil photo, Puissant, Autonomie correcte
  • Finition et design toujours pas au niveau, Cardiofréquencemètre très gadget, Capteur d'empreinte inutilisable, Cher, Au final pas si différent du modèle de l'an passé
  • Le Samsung Galaxy S5 ouvre la saison des smartphones haut de gamme en grande pompe. Samsung a du toutefois cette année du composer avec des nouveautés technologiques en berne. Voyons donc si ce nouveau Galaxy est toujours au somment de l'univers Android....

  • Ecran superbe, Prise en mains, Autonomie
  • Capteur d'empreintes peu pratique, Mode ralenti décevant, Haut parleur très moyen
  • Alors que j'avais été moyennement impressionné au passage du Samsung Galaxy S3 au Galaxy S4, je trouve que cette année Samsung a fait du très bon travail pour améliorer son modèle phare. Le constructeur a su reprendre les forces de l'appareil tout en corr...
