Same. Only slowness issues I've ever had with iPhones is when they are close to end of life (2-3 years) and the latest firmware starts to slow it down with new features. With all our contracts being 2 years now that isn't much of an issue (plus the 5s is stupid fast).

something about the phone makes it look really old school. Maybe the metal trim around it

Back plate is nice, but yeah that raised chrome bezel on the S4/S5 looks dated. The S3 looks sleeker without that bezel, but it's far more slippery without it.

I have not had a Samsung phone since the D500 days..

I will give the S5 a shot since I am bored with the iPhone.

Black or Gold?? The Gold looks a bit too much, black seems nice and safe

Don't really like the design and the specs. Seems Samsung didn't too much to the S5. Glad I pick up a Z1 instead of waiting for this.

Looks like it's almost at 8GB for the S5:

Galaxy S5 ROM is a bit of a monster, taking up nearly 8GB of storage | Android Central

Nothing too spectacular. Surprised the phone is that much larger for a 0.1" increase in screen size.

S5 specs look so disappointing...i thought 3 to 4 was bad...this is even worse

Why even bump up 0.1" if the resolution is identical...the bezel actually looks thicker

Damn it lol. I'm still using a blackberry 9780 which has that crappy fake leather backing. My 3 yr contract this year and all I've been thinking about was getting rid of this crappy backing and getting a plastic backing or iphone-like backing so i can get a white phone that wont get super dirty.. Fuuuuuu samsung..
