For the past three years, Samsung has been climbing to the top of the mobile market after creating their Galaxy series of smartphones. So, with Samsung releasing their latest addition to the Galaxy family – the S5 has some consumers on their toes with what to expect. With Apple holding off any news of their iPhone 6 until its release – many are still wracking their brains over what that new addition could look like, but for now – what can Samsung customers expect from the Galaxy S5?
Bigger And Better
The new Samsung Galaxy S5 is rumored to have a bigger, sleeker, and brighter design. With upping the resolution and taking away the plastic casing that Samsung has been using since the first Galaxy, consumers can expect a sleeker and professional looking device. If the Galaxy S5 sheds that plastic shell casing and replaces it with metal – then consumers can expect to have a phone with a high-quality design that resembles the iPhone 5S and HTC One.
There is one rumor that we found interesting here at iPhone Repair 4 Less – what if Samsung released two version of their Galaxy S5? The rumor we’ve been reading of is that Samsung will try playing the same game Apple did with their iPhone 5C and 5S – except they will release an identical phone, but one will sell with metal casing while the other is the standard plastic like the rest of the Galaxy family.
Hopping On The Fingerprint Bandwagon
Samsung is the latest smartphone powerhouse to dip their toes in the fingerprint security feature. When Apple announced they would be releasing an iPhone with fingerprint security, it was hacked within hours of being released, so why does Samsung think they can pull it off? Well, according to one Samsung focused blog – the new fingerprint sensor will be featured within the home button, and a swipe will be required to get the full print.
Now, keep in mind that fun fact is a rumor, but a fingerprint security system would be helpful – and the IF Samsung’s Galaxy S5 features this sensor, it can also be used to unlock you email as well as any other folders you may want to keep private.
Less Bloatware Taking Up Your Screen
If you’ve invested in one of the previous Galaxy smartphones by Samsung, then you understand how overboard they went with pre-installed apps that just cluttered your home screen and data usage. Well, with the new Galaxy S5, users can expect less knock-off Google apps. Earlier in 2014, Google and Samsung came to an agreement where Samsung could still function on the Google platform, but they couldn’t knock-off Google’s pre-existing applications – including their Google Play app store. For users, this is only positive news because your phone will not be cluttered and you won’t have to dedicate an entire afternoon to deleting the apps you know you’ll never use.
If you’re a consumer of Samsung and the Galaxy family, we understand how great the phone’s are, but we also understand how irritating it can be if they malfunction or just break.
