The editors didn't like

  • 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
  • Lack of premium construction materials
  • Unbalanced screen colors
  • Fingerprint and heart rate sensors could be better
  • Has the same limitations all pouch-style cases have
  • No screen or back protection included
  • Only small improvements and additions from previous model
  • Qi wireless charging not built in
  • Some songs lack body. The price is a bit high
  • TouchWiz is a fragmented clash of three different operating system styles
  • We aren't sure a heart rate monitor would be useful on a phone
  • But the one on this phone is only right about half the time
  • The fingerprint reader can't be used one-handed
  • The us
  • Don't use it as a boom box
  • Still too much bloatware
  • Still plastic
  • TouchWiz is improved but still walks all over Android
  • Slow
  • Inconsistent LTE connection
  • Inconsistent fingerprint sensor
  • Cumbersome USB port flap door
  • TouchWiz is bloated and sloppy
  • Fingerprint reader and heart rate monitor are useless
  • Feels cheaper than other flagships
  • Inconsistent fingerprint sensor Annoying port cover Weak audio
  • Stability issues
  • Plasticy design
  • Some gimmicky features
  • All-plastic design. Speakerphone could be louder and deeper
  • 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
  • Annoying flap door for charging port
  • Plastic design
  • All-plastic design. Bloatware. No Download Booster
  • Inconsistent fingerprint reader
  • USB port flap
  • Plastic chassis
  • Plastic body
  • Annoying USB port flap
  • Software options can be overwhelming and scattered
  • Tinny and subpar audio when played at high volumes
  • Camera is inconsistent in less than optimal conditions
  • Slightly lower Overall Build Quality Vs. Top Competitors
  • Screen may be too big for some people
  • Lots of customizing could be intimidating
  • Battery life not so great
  • Baffling interface and default set of applications. Flimsy dimpled plastic back feels like a cheap practice golf ball. Why do you keep giving me two apps when one will do?
  • Overwhelming features and options
  • Cheap
  • Boring design
  • Camera struggles in low light
  • Pricey
  •  Industrial design doesn't live up to “glam” messaging
  •  Software still looks
  • Feels half-baked
  •  Poor camera performance in low light
  •  Features like fingerprint scanner
  • Ultra Power Saving under-deliver
  • Feels insubstantial in the hand
  •  Subpar camera experience in lowlight
  •  Software feels halfbaked
  •  Highlight features like the fingerprint scanner are unreliable
  • If the Galaxy S5's feature set is overwhelming
  • You can use the simplified Easy Mode interface. Image Sandra Vogel/ZDNet UK
  • Despite the obvious attempt to trim back the software offering there's still a lot going on here. So for those who are easily over
  • No significant changes in design
  • Audio output is disappointing
  • Fingerprint scanner doesn't perform well
  • Still some gimmicky features
  • The Samsung Galaxy S5 is not an innovative product but Samsung is trying to complete its products. Undoubtedly the S5
  • Noticeable loss of details in low light conditions
  • Nonuniform sharpness across the image field
  • Autofocus inaccuracies during auto mode
  • Fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor aren’t well implemented. Settings screen is terrible. Lacks the polish of its highend competitors.
  • Fingerprint scanner can be frustrating
  • Selective focus doesn't always work as promised
  • Heart rate monitor isn't completely accurate
  • TouchWiz UI looks better
  • But is still confusing
  • Case is torsionally not completely rigid
  • And complains with slight creaking when forces are applied
  • Pop-up warnings to close the covers properly get annoyoing
  • Compared to the predecessor
  • Only some details have been improved
  • Not as easy to maint
  • Fingerprint reader can be trying
  • Heart rate sensor is gimmicky

  • Ecran AMOLED Full HD, Performances, Un smartphone bardé de fonctionnalités, Autonomie, Qualifié IP67 (étanchéité et résistant à la poussière), Captation vidéo en 4K / UHD (maximum 5 minutes), Autonomie, Capteur de pulsations cardiaques
  • On reste sur du plastique, Pas de grosse innovation côté design, Cache de la prise microUSB (doit être retiré et n'inspire pas la fiabilité)
  • Si le Galaxy S5 n'a pas subi de véritable refonte esthétique par rapport au GS4, il a toutefois eu droit à une mise à jour importante en termes de composants. Ceci se traduit par un terminal mobile plus puissant que jamais. C'est le compagnon idéal pour v...

  • Puissance brute, Qualité de l'écran, Etanche et résistant au sable et à la poussière, APN de qualité, Autonomie record
  • Un design une fois de plus quelconque, Le capteur d'empreintes, peu pratique
  • Le Galaxy S4 était un des meilleurs smartphones de 2013 et, sans grande surprise, le Galaxy S5 suit la même route. Pas vraiment surprenant niveau design (on peut même lui reprocher une certaine fadeur), le dernier né de Samsung reste un excellent produit ...

  • Bel écran, Surcouche complète, Puissant
  • Aucune originalité, Appareil photo, Cher
  • Le Galaxy S5 de Samsung est un excellent appareil. Il ne devrait pas décevoir qui que ce soit (hormis les férus de photos avec mobile) et trouvera très certainement son public. Ce qu'on peut lui reprocher en revanche, c'est son manque d'originalité flagra...
