[Reason077]

Guess there's not much point watching the Keynote now, clearly the press embargo just ended.

whaaaaaaaaaaattt????

No 3GB RAM?

2800 battery???

Is this serious???

Seriously... those blue and gold colors are the WORST thing I've ever seen. So ugly.

At least the gold iphone 5S looks actually good.

Lifting an embargo before officially revealing it, smh. So much for the fun...most websites have in-depth reviews already.

GS4 GE > GS5 TW ??
J/k J/k but maybe not

Thank god. That saves us from having to watch this grease fest.

that guy sounds adorable

who is responsible for water damage btw? what if u stay underwater for 31 minutes instead of 29 minutes and it suddenly dies. is it covered under warranty?

Engadget:

"the GS5 comes with a 16-megapixel sensor that features UHD recording capability and real-time HDR (both photos and video) "

Cool! It has 4K!

Of course, the Note 3 already had it.

 

[luckydcxx]

its very difficult listening to the guy

God I hope people buy the other, better products announced. This is appallingly bad. They copied all the features and design cues of their top competitors, waterproofing from Sony, fingerprint sensor and gold from Apple, etc.

 

[Sensamic]

Z2 is waaay better than this IMO.


KNOX!!!! NOOOO!!!

 

[Shanghaichica]

They should Let the young Asian guy do the presentation.

 

[nooaah]

This is HTC's chance, hopefully.

It's not the size of your battery, it's how you use it. Same could be said for RAM.

 

[Sensamic]

This is HTC's chance, hopefully.

If the S5 is this bad I bet the HTC One 2 will also have that "amazing" UltraPixel camera again.

Hey, that Gear Fit watch looks pretty cool. Much more interesting than the S5.

 

[Sensamic]

What about the new Touchwiz?????

 

[dojoman]

Is it Galaxy 5S?

 

[Oohara]

Hey, that Gear Fit watch looks pretty cool. Much more interesting than the S5.

Yeah, that screen format is pretty cool. I could go for a Gear but based on that design.

I think they could have done bettwe with the Glam look..

 

[nfl46]

What about the new Touchwiz?????

You will have to wait a (couple) months for the S5 Pro, with a 5.5" screen, new TW interface and Gear 3. Lol. Samsung is a mess.

 

[Sensamic]

"We are listening our customers" he says....

Sure...

Customers didn't want plastic, hardware home button, touchwiz, etc.

Oh, and NO KNOX!

 

[vomhorizon]

Is the "modern Glam" perforation metal, pastic, leather, carbon-fiber? What is it ? No QHD or 2k..

I see Samsung have been listening to the rumors coming out of Cupertino with the Gear Fit watch, looks exactly like mockups?!

I feel that samsung do the following timetable these days:

1. Watch rumors coming from Apple - Develop & Release a wide range of these hoping they will get a hit
2. Watch apple come out with latest tech
3. Copy that tech - Fingerprint sensor, gold?

Did they not have the waterproof S4 active last year?

These competitors:

LG just released some gold phones
HTC released a phone with a fingerprint scanner last year and leaks suggest a gold variant of the new HTC one.
