I feel like such a Luddite with my 1080p SIII... :huh:
Samsung packs a 16-megapixel camera on the rear of the Galaxy S5 , which features a large 1/2.6" image sensor that rivals point-and-shoot cameras.
The larger sensor will help you capture high-quality images, including photos taken in low-light situations.
Photo enthusiasts will also appreciate the inclusion of Selective Focus, which is designed to blur image backgrounds and finely focus on the main subject.
The front 2-megapixel camera is accompanied by a wide-angle lens for capturing more of your surroundings that should make for some high-quality selfies.
Video recording has also seen an upgrade, with the addition of UHD 4K video recording at 30 frames per second on the rear camera.
If you have a 4K television, you can use the Galaxy S5's MHL 2-ready micro-USB port to output 4K video to your external display.
Not to be completely outdone, the front camera allows you to capture full HD 1080p video at 30 frames per second.
Under the hood, this smartphone features the powerful Snapdragon 801 chipset, which features a quad-core 2.5GHz processor. :shocked:
2GB of RAM is built in, and some Galaxy S5 model variants offer 16GB or 32GB storage capacities.
You can upgrade the Galaxy S5's storage capacity via its microSD slot, which supports microSDXC cards all the way up to 128GB.
With all of that power, it's easy to drain battery life pretty quickly, so to counter that, the Galaxy S5 comes with a removable 2800mAh battery that offers approximately 16 days of standby time and 21 hours of talk time.
The display is slightly larger this year, at 5.1", as opposed to the S4's 5.0" screen.
Resolution remains the same at 1920 x 1080, along with Samsung's vivid and popular Super AMOLED display technology.
Gorilla Glass 3 is also back this year to help the device withstand screen wear and tear.
Further protecting the Galaxy S5 is an IP67 certification, making the device resistant to sweat, rain, sand, and even dust; a great feature if your phone is used outdoors a lot.
