2014-04-09
what's up everyone John retina from TechnoBuffalo here and in his flagship unboxing time I've got in my very eager hands the latest from Samsung this is the Galaxy s5 we've got the international variant right here with an octa-core processor or two quad core depending on how you want to look at it I've had a chance to take a look at the phone yet so really excited to dig in so let's stop talking and start unboxing so here is the box for the galaxy s5 looking very familiar and it's sort of fake wood grain to the galaxy s4 except it's got a giant v on it the version we have here is the octa-core international variants which if we flip this guy over it's got two quad-core processors one at 1.9 gigahertz and one at 1.3 you pick up most versions you're going to get a 2.5 gigahertz quad-core processor inside let's go ahead and open this sucker up boom there is a galaxy s5 looks like this one's been manhandled a bit before and there it is that is the s5 with its Indian playback push it off the side for a quick second so we're gonna get in this international versions box case you want to keep track at home it is the G 908 variant we've got typical USB cord except this time it is micro USB it's not USB 3.0 we've got headphones there we're also gonna have a power brick and that is about it here's a phone though that's why everybody's here to get all this garbage off to the side power it on and let's run through the specs of the Galaxy s5 which announced is powered by Android as they are required to do we were looking at a supposedly very gorgeous 5.1 inch green with a 1920 by 1080 resolution if you can do quick math that is 432 PPI and if it's it's AF HD Super AMOLED display Android 4.4.2 at launch is here it's got 2 gigs of RAM inside of it either 16 or 32 bit configurations but don't let that throw you off it's got a micro SD card that can hold up to 128 gigs on it on the back we've got a 16 megapixel camera they're on the front we've got a two megapixel shooter it's got Wi-Fi of course 802 of an ABG and an AC bluetooth 4.0 and a 2800 milliamp hour battery of course NFC something noticeable changes versus the s4 you've got a heart rate monitor built right in there sure where the flash is and you've got a fingerprint sensor now built right into the home button as well design-wise looks very familiar to the galaxy s4 you've got your volume buttons living there on the left on the right you've got your power and lock button 3.5 millimeter headset jack and the bottom below this little flap there is a USB 3.0 port and the flap is air because it is water resistant is actually a sort of a rubber gasket all around the back here and also some protection inside of the headphone jack there let me go ahead and get this guy all set up and take quick look at the phone itself so we've got the phone all powered on I will say on first blush the screen is gorgeous Samsung really knows how to do their displays so here is the new TouchWiz a little bit flatter but still just as bright I can see all sort of the built in touch with apps we'll go through this and more depth when you are for review and do a software tour you can see what's here notable changes go ahead and pull this down you see it's got a flatter look s finder and quick-connect s finder is it gives you sort of a universal search for your phone with really nice feature to have continue to pull down and if you love shortcuts there quite a bit here you go ahead and see everything that's there it's sort of done with the Samsung style icons but that's standard Android stuff let's go ahead and jump in we'll go to settings you can see what that looks like there it's been totally redone so it might look unfamiliar to you but it's so broken up instead of tabs across its now as you scroll down so you've got quick settings network connections connect and share sound display personalization motion gesture air view user backup system and then all of your applications application settings are there as well and again you've got a fingerprint sensor built in here as well which is kind of a new feature so some of the other noticeable things that are here you've got ultimate power saving mode see that you power saving mode I've got 25 battery left in the phone about 24 percent that would give me 3.1 and DS and standbys you're gonna have a ton of standby time here sort of pairs this phone down to its its core functions scroll over to the left you've got the new my magazine features built into the phone it looks sort of similar to what we've seen on other Samsung devices but a bit of a snazzy UI on here so of course we'll do a full overview it will run through all the fingerprints that a scanner will show you the heart rate monitor and show you all the cool s features that are packed in to the s5 any particular you want to see I leave in the comments down below let me bring in some competitors and some older generation phones see if they all look like so we've got of course the s5 and the HTC One m8 squared off right there you can see the two of them side-by-side they're friends ish definitely a different feel to both devices you've got the metal versus the plastic so much ever you prefer here is the kid brother the Galaxy s4 and certainly the s5 looks for these from design standpoint an evolution over the design that Samsung pioneered with the s4 and for good measure here is an iPhone 5s singing of both of these guys look like next to each other of course side by side and let's make just a giant phone sandwich won't put ensure that the s5 is the one on the bottom so it'll be at least on my right-hand side right here so you can see what all those look like when they are all together for a very weird family portrait so what do you guys think about the Galaxy s5 and in particular you want to see a show of course will show all the new sensors and show the screen and the software what we want to do whatever you guys want to see so please leave comments down below and let us know whatever that might be will compare with other flagship devices of course and up you guys decide if this is the right phone to grace your pocket for
