Samsung Galaxy S5 Specs reportedly confirmed


By on Tuesday, January 14, 2014


Samsung Galaxy S5 is the currently the phone everyone is waiting for. There have been lost of rumours going around this and everyday we see some new report or leak published about the device. Recently we put together a dossier for you which had shown Everything that is known about Galaxy S5.  Even after so many reports and leaks, we are still not sure on the key aspects of the phone?Will it be in metal or in plastic or will  have 2 variants? Will it be launched with Snapdragon 805 or Exynos 6? How will the camera be? Will OIS finally come to Samsung S5? Will Samsung launch Galaxy S5 with QHD screen?

Sam Mobile has been able to confirm some of the key aspects of the Galaxy S5. Here is a list of reportedly confirmed specs of Galaxy S5

Galaxy S5 Confirmed Design

This is the area where we have seen maximum buzz this year. Previously, we have seen reports and pictures leaked of Galaxy S5's metal frame. This put very strong credibility to the rumours that S5 would indeed be launching in a metal this year. We also had rumours previously that Galaxy S5 will be launched in both Metal and Plastic. This made sense as apple has taken the same route last year and Samsung will be able to keep users wanting a new design from Samsung and also its loyalists who love plastic frames. Sam Mobile seems to have confirmed that there will be two versions of the flagship - one in metal and another one in plastic. The Metal Galaxy S5 will be a premium model and would cost around 800 euros, while the plastic Galaxy S5 will be costing around 650 Euros. Will the new model be called Galaxy F or anything else is still not clear

Galaxy S5 Confirmed Display

Display is also one of the most awaited features on Galaxy S5 where Samsung is expected to do a major bump in the specifications. We have heard rumours previously and most of them pointed to the display being a 5.25" QHD display.There were numerous leaks surrounding these and Samsung was also responsible fro some of those. Samsung confirmed during their Analyst Day event that their 2014 Flagship phones will be launched with QHD screenAs expected, the Galaxy S5 will sport an AMOLED display of 2,560×1,440 resolution though it is yet not confirmed that what will be the size of the device. All the previous rumours point to a size around 5.25", so we can expect that to be true. So this will give the new Galaxy S5 an amazing 560PPI resolution! 

Galaxy S5 Confirmed Processors

Every year especially in Android ecosystem, we eagerly await the launch of new flagships to see how their internal have been ramped up. This year seems to be no different. The rumours this year are mostly pointing to two configuration- either an Exynos 6 processor with true 8 Core or an Snapdragon 805 processor which will give a significant boost to Graphical processing. Well, the report seems to confirm that the Galaxy S5 will be launched with both the Exynos chip and the Snapdragon chip under the hood. This does seem likely seeing the previous track record of Samsung but we have heard claims that LTE issue of Exynos processors have been solved now and there should not be any hindrance in launching them in any of the regions with LTE. Still this might be a possibility as report points out. Also, another entirely different possibility is that Samsung might launch its Metal Galaxy S5 with its own Exynos processor and the plastic one will be launched with Snapdragon. Well, that can be the case as well, if indeed there are two versions.

Galaxy S5  Confirmed Camera

Another area where smartphones are constantly improving is Camera. The report seems to confirm that the S5 will indeed come with an 16 Mega pixel camera. However, it still unclear if this will be a Hardware Optical Image Stabilization Module! 

Other than this, the operating system will be Android 4.4 with Touchwiz on top. The  device is expected to be announced in March in London followed by a Global launch in April
