Outstanding performance
Fast and smooth
Kids mode is a great feature for families
S Health has some great features
Battery life is fantastic. The pared-back look of the software is a definite improvement. The screen is absolutely lovely. The dimpled back panel makes the phone much less likely to slide out of your hand or off of your leg. IP67 waterproofiness should be

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

excelle dans tous les domaines qui compte, Android 4.4 KitKat, magnifique écran, puissance du processeur, capacité photo, les efforts de Samsung pour simplifier sa surcouche.
une simple évolution du S4, lecteur d'empreinte digitale à apprivoiser, aspect annecdotique du capteur de fréquence cardiaque

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....
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...
Abstract: Lors de l'arrivée d'un nouveau terminal sur le marché, beaucoup de questions se posent. Et si vous êtes quelque peu maladroits, l'une des premières est la résistance du terminal aux chocs et aux chutes.Mais comment vérifier cette résistance concrètement ?...
