(obligatory idiotic ":o" face on thumbnail because apparently kids click those) // phone manufacturers go great lenghts to prevent you from changing your battery and thus using your phone for longer than 2 years. The phone must be absolutely sealed even if it has absolutely zero water resistance and you need a PhD to disassemble it without breaking anything. But we've got to stay optimistic guys - today might be worse than yesterday, but it sure is better than tommorow! :)
Isn't it sad that nobody could make a bigger screen phone without sacrificing battery life (and yes, even the GS5 is a battery sucker despite its "battery saving" features) or anything else until Apple did it. I guess it pays off to not rush things and make them perfect.
Apple : Let's make fun of Samsung for their big phones the n release our own big phone, which is the same thing as last year! Samsung : Let's try to make our phone unique and different and allow you to throw it in a bucket of water for 30 mins! Lol, Samsung is the best!
ZeranocRBX "unique and different" ..cue the new s6 which looks exactly like the iphone 6, down to the fingerprint scanner, home button, s-voice, and "samsung pay", haha
MrXingor S5 was developed after the introduction of apple's biometric lock, genius. (GS5 is my primary phone FYI) s-voice was developed after Siri, and is generally regarded as a joke even today. yes, samsung had NFC but their retail payment only came after apple pay was announced. You must be an idiot :)
well on my gzone commando 3g verision when speakers were submerged and got wet the quality would lack but after a few min of drying they would be back to normal so i wold expect the same
I was surprised that it withstood that much water test, definitely the best water resistance phone on the market right now and best water resistance test performed on RUclips
Matthew Chanthirat No.... Did you even watch the video? I know I'm right.... and unless you show me xperia z2 in the washer for 1 hour with just like S5 you won't change my mind either
"it probably would survive the washer" I didn't say I wanted your prediction, I wanted evidence.... Now stop replying back to me unless you got any proof troll
Okay, the phone is water resistant. Even the speakers, the infrared outlet holes, and even the headphone jacks. Alot of the comments below complain that samsung is lying about being waterresistent cuz the headphone jack is unprotected, But it is. When you take your wet phone and try to use headphones, dry your headphone jacks so that the water does not conduct and interfere with electrical signals. Otherwise youll hear a weird odd sound if theres water in the jacks. Its caused by the water connecting left and right terminals. But yeah it is waterresistant just make sure u dry out the water in the jack before u try to listen.
AlphaLineGaming | Gaming, Reviews, and More! no, you can't just buy waterproof heaphones. the metal stick thingy at the tip of your headphone cable is called a phone jack. Notice how there are metal rings around them? They represent left and right and power terminals. When you plug it into your phone, the terminals connect to your phone so the correct sound is played for your left ear, right ear, and also to power up your headphones. BUT these terminals are always exposed, meaning if water touches the terminals it can interfere with the left/right/power terminals (kind of like short circuiting electronics) and create some weird sound, or maybe even break your earphone. there is no such thing as a waterproof headphone, because currently, the headphone jacks are always exposed.
Ajaya L. Shrestha maybe its china, cause my friend bought a Samsung and its water proof when he dropped it in water it prove its not😭 and because he bought from China, freaking China destroyed everything😢😥
This just proves that the GS5 is unstoppable durable! All those iPhone users who said the plastic back to as a bad idea should have but their tongue. TEAM ANDROID.
Not to mention the fact that Samsung designed the A6 and A7 chip that is in the iphones as well as Samsung designed the screen for the new iPhone 6 so pretty much Samsung is unstoppable. They are so far ahead that they be helping the shitty. If Samsung cant even save the iphone then idk what will.
Wow... I wasn't a huge fan of samsung but this made me realize that samsung phones are pretty good after all! (even if I have to use that ugly touchwiz UI :P)
All I know is I hate the normal theme. And I never had to use it. I bought next after trying the free version and have used or on three different phones and three different tabs. Badass
This was my first phone when I graduated from high school in 2014. My parents got it for me as a graduation present. One of the best phones I've ever had.
Sure, the Samsung is durable. Sure, it has more apps than Apple can count. Sure, it's water resistant. But the iPhone 6 bends! It bends and it has a good camera! I mean sure Samsung made their S5 and it's water resistant and has good apps and all, but THE IPHONE 6 BENDS!!! These butthurt people go in and buy every generation of the iPhone and they're all crap. Here line up for exactly the same thing we gave you last year!
DLS Reclaimer Apple doesn't have more apps than Google Play which is what Samsung runs off of for apps. And it does matter which system has bugs and which doesn't because would you rather have a good phone or a bad phone?
The S5 being water resistant and having a very good camera (in good conditions anyway) sealed the deal for me. From the comparisons I've seen so far it appears the iPhone 6 has a better all-round camera, while the S5 is more situational. Other important factors include the MicroSD slot for up to 128 GB changeable storage :)
A year later, is it still waterproof? I owned a xperia z which was ip67 but about one year on the rubber seals on the flaps all fell off. Is that the case with the S5 as well?
MagicAccent Yes. The S5 just have one rubber seal by the power end and mine is almost falling off... It's from the time it was released, so I believe it's quite older than 1 year... I wish I could replace the rubber jack.
The headset jack is actually very well designed. The bezel is one flat piece that houses many of the parts that would normally be ruined by water (e.g. earpiece, headset jack, speaker, etc). The only open part between the board, bezel, and inside the back housing -- is the battery compartment. It is made water resistant by the battery door, which has the seal between all the parts inside the phone. Source: I'm a phone tech, and have disassembled the S5 for repairs purposes.
I would have liked to see a whole load of clothes done as that's more realistic, you're not going to wash just one pair of pants...and the phone was getting knocked around against the washer drum, which wouldn't happen as much if it was full of clothes Nonetheless cool video, surprised it held up so well. I'd never do this to my S5 tho lol
Yes it would, because the phone wouldn't be knocking against the hard washer drum as much, and thus the back cover wouldn't have come loose (or at the very least it would have been less probable)
I think my life just reached a new turn, I have allways been prefering iPhone over androids, but now I think will be getting the Samsing Galaxy S5 Mini over my old iPhone.
Ur serious right? Well If ur dat big of an Idiot it's made by Apple and Apple has been producing it sience 2009 and in fact dats wat I replying from and just search it in the internet
MrHenk588 An IP67 actually is water proof. IP 6 - Totally protected against entry of dust. 7 - Protected against the effect of IMMERSION between 15cm and 1 meter or 3.3 feet of water. Do some research into the IP rating system If it has the IP67 rating its not water resistant it is water proof (for an hour)
Anthony J. Cortazzo IV First of all, i know the IP ratings. But it's aal those Samsung fanboy reviewers that only say that it's water proof but even the Samsung CEO said at Unpacked 5 that it is water resistant and not proof , even the Samsung commercial display's it in the botom corner. So at the end you are the one that needds to do some research
Be careful when you take apart the lcd for a repair because it looses the waterproof capability, like the Z1 or other phones. This is because the manufacturer gasket muste be heathed or removed. It is better to send your device to manufacturer warranty in some cases...
+Absolute David light crystal diodes....they use a backlight for the pixels and combine the colors red green blue in a grid shape format to make images
MotionzzTV And I almost forgot. I've got something interesting to share with you. OMG, you can't receive or send via Bluetooth? Cause you use iPhone? Again, oops.
I actually had my Samsung Galaxy S5 accidentally go into the washing machine (30 minute cycle) the other day. It also has had no bottom cover to keep water out since it broke off years ago. The screen got a few cracks but absolutely no water damage somehow, even with the lack of a cover, the phone didn't even turn off. Take in note it had an Otterbox Case on it (the hard shell was already missing a bit on the top and the bottom for over a year as well).
daaamn this phone was so good when it came out...I think I might buy it now in 2019 (around 100 euro on ebay) it will be a good as a second phone for beaches and pools :D
i agree ...waterproof in phones should be a basic feature .. like calling ... it would be awesome .. like 3rd generation phones .. a new era of phone begins ... yeahhhh
Your washing machine test is unrealistic. I think the only reason it shut off was due to the thrashing of the washing machine, if other clothes had been in there like a real wash it think it would have surpassed your expectations further.
The point of the test is to see how durable the phone is, not how much cushion clothing can provide for your phone when you some how manage to wash it doing the laundry.
***** Yes, that's why its titled WATER test. Not durability test. He even said "so what if you accidentally left your Samsung galaxy S5 in your pocket and throw it in the washing machine."
I agree but actually by him putting his S5 to test with single jeans, it surpassed the viewers' expectation even higher than what we all thought originally
Love my s2 soo much no need for new phone im happy with it, The only honest problem i have with it is the home button because when i press it half the time S talk comes up and now the "what would you like to do?" voice that happens now send shivers down my spine.
I'm really clumsy with my phone and I usually smash the screen within a week or so from it falling out of my pocket or accidentally dropping it. The s5 has been amazing. I have dropped is numerous times and it hasn't smashed or scratched at all. Such a great and durable phone.
Can someone please explain to me why people think it's necessary to hate on people who didn't buy the same phone as them? I like my iPhone, no I don't want an android, thank you. I don't see how my choice should affect anyones life.
It all comes down to personal preference. I hate on the iPhone because they are all the same, everyone of them. They all have the same shape, size, etc. When it comes to the Android OS, there are different phones that run it, hence why one of their slogans is "be together, not the same" Also, iPhones, and Apple products in general, are over priced. When is comes to new versions of the iPhone, they don't change much. For the most part, they add a slightly better screen, camera, processor, and a larger price tag. They also crack really easily. Personally, Apple products are too simplified for me. They are good for some people, but not me. Lastly, I have no beef with those who use them, many of my friends use iPhones. In short, I think there are better and cheaper options. P.S. It's also fun to see Apple fans flip there shit when you hate on their favourite product. :)
This is reassuring that this phone is water proof to a certain degree. I wouldn't really worry about real life accidents like you falling in a pool, forgetting your phone in a wash, or leaving it out in the rain.
Its amazing how the channel went from this to burning $500 car chargers

gausah sok ingris
Meanwhile apple finally found a way to make their phones bigger.
lmao!!!!!
lolololololol
copied samsung
Isn't it sad that nobody could make a bigger screen phone without sacrificing battery life (and yes, even the GS5 is a battery sucker despite its "battery saving" features) or anything else until Apple did it. I guess it pays off to not rush things and make them perfect.
David Dahlman i guess if you yhink bending in your pocket is perfect lmao iphon 6 plus is shit.
Apple : Let's make fun of Samsung for their big phones the n release our own big phone, which is the same thing as last year!
Samsung : Let's try to make our phone unique and different and allow you to throw it in a bucket of water for 30 mins!
Lol, Samsung is the best!
ZeranocRBX how to tell if a person is poor. see what phone they use.
ZeranocRBX yeah if you havent heard about the htc one M8 INDISTRUCTIBLE FACT unless you got a BIG HAMMER
ZeranocRBX "unique and different" ..cue the new s6 which looks exactly like the iphone 6, down to the fingerprint scanner, home button, s-voice, and "samsung pay", haha
MrXingor S5 was developed after the introduction of apple's biometric lock, genius. (GS5 is my primary phone FYI) s-voice was developed after Siri, and is generally regarded as a joke even today. yes, samsung had NFC but their retail payment only came after apple pay was announced. You must be an idiot :)
We all know you can't afford an iPhone. Maybe that's why the iPhone beats S5 in benchmarks and camera?
Samsung S5 does ALS Ice Bucket challenge and nominates IPhone 6
Haha
Hahaha good one!!! 😂😂
Dead X_X
Funny thing no one nominated Samsung.
After IPhone completes the ALS challenge it doesn't nominate anyone...(dead phone don't do shit x.x)
I often get stuck in washing machines, it's good to know samsung has made a phone for the average consumer.
This comment made my day :D
Haha Haha
Sometimes, I go to sleep and wake up in the drier with my phone, I wish there was a phone company who made a more heat proof phone
does anyone notice how he was sitting there during the whole laundry cycle, confirmed he has no life lol
+Uriel Marron shit stupid autocorrect lol
He made apprx 6800$ with his video. What a life. :/
😂 I just got the s5 today and wanted to see how water proof it is
Skip To 4:40 If You Want To See If It Survived The Pool
lol thanks
thnx
Chris Tech Time tx
Thanks
Thanks
Am i the only one who was watching what the guy was doing off the reflection of the washer? Lol
I'm still scared to let it touch water tbh 😅
+mars me too hahaha I have the blue one and I'm still like don't get it wet!!!
+Reginald Marshall yeah but how does it not just simply go through the speakers and headphone jack and mess that up?
+Reginald Marshall cool thanks
mars exactly why I got a waterproof case cause I'm scared plus I got a crack so it might get in still without the case.
i always wash my s5 lol
Please explain the point of not instantly skipping to when you pulled it out the water?
Even if he did skip.Test have been done officially.
He probably should have put a "skip to..." annotation, but ya, they are right.
david tang skipping the process could affect it.
Its sort of like a science experiment - skipping a step could throw the whole thing off.
david tang skipping the process could affect it.
Its sort of like a science experiment - skipping a step could throw the whole thing off.
Could you not have skipped the time rather than make us watch a swimming pool for 4 minutes
Then they would think that itse fake
Ben Cutter *Could you have
So does it damage the audio quality or head phones port. and can you play music under water??
id like to hear the answer to this, pls
But does that cover the phone speakers since the phone speaker seem to have no protection.
***** Well, sort of. The 6 means dust and sand resistant and the 7 means water resistance.
well on my gzone commando 3g verision when speakers were submerged and got wet the quality would lack but after a few min of drying they would be back to normal so i wold expect the same
Matthew Brennan Chong Was the removable back on correctly?
I was surprised that it withstood that much water test, definitely the best water resistance phone on the market right now and best water resistance test performed on RUclips
Wrong.... Look at Sony's xperia z2
Matthew Chanthirat
No.... Did you even watch the video? I know I'm right.... and unless you show me xperia z2 in the washer for 1 hour with just like S5 you won't change my mind either
Hah it probably would survive the washer since it has a less chance of the whole back cover coming off since it doesn't have one
"it probably would survive the washer"
I didn't say I wanted your prediction, I wanted evidence.... Now stop replying back to me unless you got any proof troll
I guess I'm throwing my xperia in the washer tomorrow.

That's why I HATE using headphones on the galaxy s5 I still have
This just proves that the GS5 is unstoppable durable! All those iPhone users who said the plastic back to as a bad idea should have but their tongue. TEAM ANDROID.
***** You can root (jailbreak) and Android :)
***** Yeah. My galaxy s5 is rooted & has MOAR rom. Trust me it's great.
yeeee I Love my Samsung
Go Apple!.. Haha..
applerever :))
Samsung is the future of all phones. And guess what Apple did in thier iPhone 6? 1.Increase screen size 2.Make it rotate
No one cares bro. We're talking about the S5 here.
Joshua Lucas seriously! Lol
Carla Mitchell that's so irritating
Yep that way I got Samsung. Each generation improved in more than 2 ways. Lol
Not to mention the fact that Samsung designed the A6 and A7 chip that is in the iphones as well as Samsung designed the screen for the new iPhone 6 so pretty much Samsung is unstoppable. They are so far ahead that they be helping the shitty. If Samsung cant even save the iphone then idk what will.
Impressive. But was detergent used?
Wow... I wasn't a huge fan of samsung but this made me realize that samsung phones are pretty good after all! (even if I have to use that ugly touchwiz UI :P)
Root dude. Its the android way
Asif Lalani True
Try next theme, fully customizable and badass.
willie green Themes are a good thing about Android :) So with themes can you actually make Touchwiz look like Stock Android UI at a 1:1 ratio?
All I know is I hate the normal theme. And I never had to use it. I bought next after trying the free version and have used or on three different phones and three different tabs. Badass
This was my first phone when I graduated from high school in 2014. My parents got it for me as a graduation present. One of the best phones I've ever had.
I'm glad I watched that. Now I can swim in confidence with my s5.
same here man haha
Can't tell if you're being serious.
i found an adult swimming in a 1 meter altitude (y) Lolz
I wouldn't swim with it if I were you. Water resistant isn't water proof. Water could eventually find its way in. Just not worth the risk is it?
Just get a life proof case that's waterproof
Sure, the Samsung is durable. Sure, it has more apps than Apple can count. Sure, it's water resistant. But the iPhone 6 bends! It bends and it has a good camera! I mean sure Samsung made their S5 and it's water resistant and has good apps and all, but THE IPHONE 6 BENDS!!!
These butthurt people go in and buy every generation of the iPhone and they're all crap. Here line up for exactly the same thing we gave you last year!

i want a good phone, i want samsung
Monster High Smart choice lol
Switched from iPhone to galaxy s5, best decision ever!!
I was contemplating on whether or not to get either the iPhone 6 or the Galaxy S5, I think I know which one I'm getting now...
The iPhone 6?
Premma Mehta I was hinting at the S5, I can see how my comment can be misleading
😂 Oh yeah I know i was just kidding
The S5 being water resistant and having a very good camera (in good conditions anyway) sealed the deal for me. From the comparisons I've seen so far it appears the iPhone 6 has a better all-round camera, while the S5 is more situational. Other important factors include the MicroSD slot for up to 128 GB changeable storage :)
Than u can watch porn in the shower
A year later, is it still waterproof?
I owned a xperia z which was ip67 but about one year on the rubber seals on the flaps all fell off. Is that the case with the S5 as well?
MagicAccent Yes. The S5 just have one rubber seal by the power end and mine is almost falling off... It's from the time it was released, so I believe it's quite older than 1 year... I wish I could replace the rubber jack.
Im blown away by these results. I thought it would be a big fail. I guess Samsung isn't as bad as i thought
LONGEST FREAKING TIME LAPSE EVER
I've Stuck To Apple For A While But Now That Im Thinking About It.. Should I Switch To Samsung?
I know I have.
Switch to BlackBerry. It's so much better.
Marco Hernandez
You, off my planet. Now.
imo you should.
Yes and no. Ive been using both ones, i like both phones. EXCEPT SAMSUNG.
I was afraid to do water test on my S5 because there's the headset hole and I thought that water would go inside thru that opening. :(
I read somewhere that there is a coating in the headset hole that makes it impossible for water to go into the phone, so you should be fine! =)
Yay. Thank you! :)
The headset jack is actually very well designed. The bezel is one flat piece that houses many of the parts that would normally be ruined by water (e.g. earpiece, headset jack, speaker, etc). The only open part between the board, bezel, and inside the back housing -- is the battery compartment. It is made water resistant by the battery door, which has the seal between all the parts inside the phone.

+Carole Ta'ane
Carole Ta'ane do you know why my front camera it's almost half covered with a black thing from the phone?
It also survives dishwasher and thats how you wash your phone if it gets dirty.
(Im suggesting it to all iphone users too)
It's water resistant (proof) after-all! Will definitely be getting the GS5 for sure.
look how chill and calming this is keaton man chill tf out please
I went swimming for over an hour and my S5 works just fine. This is an amazing phone. Let's see an iPhone survive that...
Lol I dont understand how someone can forget that big of a phone in their pockets. XD
Well Samsung weren't lying when they said it was waterproof
who put their phone in the washing machine
You: You will suffer!
This Phone: Why?
You: For a video.
THE HORRORRR!! But its resistant! EPIC!! cant wait to get it!
La prueba más dura de resistencia al agua para el Galaxy S5. ¡Realmente impresionante!
I would have liked to see a whole load of clothes done as that's more realistic, you're not going to wash just one pair of pants...and the phone was getting knocked around against the washer drum, which wouldn't happen as much if it was full of clothes
Nonetheless cool video, surprised it held up so well. I'd never do this to my S5 tho lol
Dude it was dropped in the pool for an hour... more clothing wouldn't matter.
Yes it would, because the phone wouldn't be knocking against the hard washer drum as much, and thus the back cover wouldn't have come loose (or at the very least it would have been less probable)
Ryan Gehret smh
Agreed Ryan!
More realistic is fine; Worst case scenario with one pair of jeans: Better.
Great device, it seems. That limited edition blue-white mix looks amazing.
I think my life just reached a new turn, I have allways been prefering iPhone over androids, but now I think will be getting the Samsing Galaxy S5 Mini over my old iPhone.
How'd it go?
What's a iphone?
Ur serious right? Well If ur dat big of an Idiot it's made by Apple and Apple has been producing it sience 2009 and in fact dats wat I replying from and just search it in the internet

***** What a BRILLIANT XD

Awesome!!, Great Video, so happy that my S5 can survive through ALL that!!:D
The s5 is thinking "what did I do to deserve this?"
I dropped my phone in a reef on a boat I went diving and it was turned on and working lol
Was it Galaxy S5?
Yes and yes
Are you sure it's waterproof cause I have one and I don't want to take any risks
Did you not see the video at all?
Yeah I did but I was making sure
Michael Smith It's water resistant not water proof so they won't give you a new phone when the s5 breaks but it can handle it
MrHenk588 An IP67 actually is water proof.
IP
6 - Totally protected against entry of dust.
7 - Protected against the effect of IMMERSION between 15cm and 1 meter or 3.3 feet of water.
Do some research into the IP rating system If it has the IP67 rating its not water resistant it is water proof (for an hour)
Anthony J. Cortazzo IV First of all, i know the IP ratings. But it's aal those Samsung fanboy reviewers that only say that it's water proof but even the Samsung CEO said at Unpacked 5 that it is water resistant and not proof , even the Samsung commercial display's it in the botom corner.

Could you not have just cut out the excess time rather than fast-forwarding through it?
So people wont bash on him that he changed the phone? :v
Robert Sivonjic Well if he was concerned with that, he still could have fast forwarded it a lot faster.
Bro, do you even cut? I don't want to watch water for an hour, not even sped up. Just make a cut, seriously.
that doesnt sound like keaton

Wonder how my LG G2 would withstand these test. Mine took several beatings without getting damaged. But water? Not sure.
Now what you got to say Apple?
We don't care. It's a feature that only matters to dumbasses who get their phone wet.

Saeed Neamati Hmm Bluetooth....it's 2014 and there are tons of ways to send and receive stuff without Bluetooth:)
I actually had my Samsung Galaxy S5 accidentally go into the washing machine (30 minute cycle) the other day. It also has had no bottom cover to keep water out since it broke off years ago. The screen got a few cracks but absolutely no water damage somehow, even with the lack of a cover, the phone didn't even turn off. Take in note it had an Otterbox Case on it (the hard shell was already missing a bit on the top and the bottom for over a year as well).
so they moved down hill with s6
daaamn this phone was so good when it came out...I think I might buy it now in 2019 (around 100 euro on ebay)
it will be a good as a second phone for beaches and pools :D
Tip: Be careful about the charger part though because mine fell off, dont bend it and be careful with it! (I think its called the charging flap)
The time lapses are too long.
my s5 was in a meter of water for 10 minutes completely sealed up and it stopped working, and hasn't worked since.
TCF xSkyHawk well it wasnt sealed correctly. did u throw into water yourself??
Brandon McKnight I didn't throw it in on purpose, I forgot it was in my pocket. :(
so can u be sure that i was sealed completly ? :/
Brandon McKnight Yes. :( I don't know how it broke
***** no it isn't, me, my dad, and my brother all got them from sprint and they were $600 each.
All phones should be waterproof, it would probably make them more expensive but it still should happen lol
i agree ...waterproof in phones should be a basic feature .. like calling ... it would be awesome .. like 3rd generation phones .. a new era of phone begins ... yeahhhh
wow very impressive!! as of today does the phone still work? also how well does it run Kitkat?
thanks!
Being the germiphobe I am, I think I might sell my iPhone 5 and get this. I'd be able to clean it everyday :)
Good idea!!!
nice one
Bad idea
Good idea but wait for ur upgrade
This was truly a torture test for the phone and my ears. Almost 4 minutes of crappy synth music! :P
Amazing performance by the phone though!
I was watching this in the shower lol with my s5
Are the speaker and microphone working fine.....????
Galaxy s5 please!!!!! I know its late but I would prefer it over the s6!!
Did this video really have to be 12 minutes long?
Your washing machine test is unrealistic. I think the only reason it shut off was due to the thrashing of the washing machine, if other clothes had been in there like a real wash it think it would have surpassed your expectations further.
The point of the test is to see how durable the phone is, not how much cushion clothing can provide for your phone when you some how manage to wash it doing the laundry.
***** Yes, that's why its titled WATER test. Not durability test. He even said "so what if you accidentally left your Samsung galaxy S5 in your pocket and throw it in the washing machine."
I agree but actually by him putting his S5 to test with single jeans, it surpassed the viewers' expectation even higher than what we all thought originally
***** 10:56. Nuff said. Listen.
How can dislike this video? Seriously now! Is amazing that the samsung galaxy s5 is surviving on all tests ;)
The washing machine was TOURTUROUS TO WATCH!
This video has too long time lapses. I don't need to sit and watch a washing machine for 3 minutes
is it safe to go swmming and having this in ur pocket?
or using it in a rainy day?
So I'm guessing you can take pictures under water?
Yes its awesome.. but touchscreen doesnt work underwater
Colton Woods Volume rockers can be used to take pictures. Greetings
MrPOWERCUMSHOOTER thanks awesome! Thanks for the tip!
Bsnsm.
Probably going to switch to T-mobile and get this phone. My last phone died in the rain.
You get something like Cyanogenmod?
I bricked my EVO LTE 4G the first day I got it trying to put Cyanogenmod on it.
***** it's still in beta, and has a lot of work to be done, but so far, Themer, is just mindblowing (launcher).
so if my GS5 is dirty i should just take it in the shower with me ? :S
Well, I dont think its a real dirt catcher.
Lol, I would never buy the Glaxy S5 on Amazon it's £799 WTF samsung who is going to buy a ******* phone that expensive?
The Game Box
Amazon's official stock is sold out, all the ridiculous prices are from the other sellers trying to cash in
got mine under 400£
Juke Box Games paid $660 for mine from T-Mobile lol..
Im most probably getting a galaxy s5 soon, my only concern is the hole where I plug the headphones, how come water dosnt get in there? Its not covered
Dont worry when you inserr headphones it pushes a latch back alwlowing the coord to reach the audio output but when you take it out the latch closes
Thank you soo much :D
Col Mop
Noo worries so no it wont fry a circuit just because theres no cover on the headphones slot
Okay and how about the speakers? Will they also be okay?
perfectly galaxy s5 !!!!!
How can you buy that much phone?!
Didn't realize I was 3 generations behind on my S2, meh.
s2 is still good tho :),but s3 is much better :) from dual core to quad core :D
I had a s2 for the longest time. I loved it.
Love my s2 soo much no need for new phone im happy with it, The only honest problem i have with it is the home button because when i press it half the time S talk comes up and now the "what would you like to do?" voice that happens now send shivers down my spine.
Yup, still have my S2. Going for a S5 now tho ;)
SAME
I'm really clumsy with my phone and I usually smash the screen within a week or so from it falling out of my pocket or accidentally dropping it. The s5 has been amazing. I have dropped is numerous times and it hasn't smashed or scratched at all. Such a great and durable phone.
Can someone please explain to me why people think it's necessary to hate on people who didn't buy the same phone as them? I like my iPhone, no I don't want an android, thank you. I don't see how my choice should affect anyones life.
I totally agree
I hate iphone.. I hate android. . You guys are all stupid consumers that is all
KrazyMienh Rat Hmmm, I wonder how you posted that comment. Must have not been with a product you bought or that was bought for you.
.
It all comes down to personal preference. I hate on the iPhone because they are all the same, everyone of them. They all have the same shape, size, etc. When it comes to the Android OS, there are different phones that run it, hence why one of their slogans is "be together, not the same" Also, iPhones, and Apple products in general, are over priced. When is comes to new versions of the iPhone, they don't change much. For the most part, they add a slightly better screen, camera, processor, and a larger price tag. They also crack really easily. Personally, Apple products are too simplified for me. They are good for some people, but not me. Lastly, I have no beef with those who use them, many of my friends use iPhones. In short, I think there are better and cheaper options.
P.S. It's also fun to see Apple fans flip there shit when you hate on their favourite product. :)
I really really need a new phone, so I would LOVE to win this!
Dude why don't u skip instead of waiting about 10 min.
So you need a cover for the charging port for it to remain waterproof?
i wish it does take photos under water
It does either set a timer or use volume buttons to take a pic
ok i willl try that
Ultimatex Regi u already take a photos in water ?
not yet
Ultimatex Regi please do that i want see :D
Woww very good phone.Samsung better than Apple!
Not the first time though :D
Do this with any iphone. :) Sneeze on it and it will die.
the iPhone 5 lasted 20 seconds underwater, the S4 did an amazing 2 minutes and still worked, and the M8 did over an hour :o
This is reassuring that this phone is water proof to a certain degree. I wouldn't really worry about real life accidents like you falling in a pool, forgetting your phone in a wash, or leaving it out in the rain.
Why not just skip over the entire waiting part lol......?
to prove he actualy put it in for that long
Now *that's* a phone I can count on! Fuck iPhone!
S5 was an Epic phone too bad the thief's stole it from me now I have an s6 and I'm not as happy as I were with the s5
Luckily for you the new Samsung Galaxy s7 is announced ip68 rated so not problem with water and better than the s5☺
how did the speaker work after this test? both the ear speaker and the speaker on the back of the phone?
I'll take that S5 off your hands;)
