Defected to S5

knite75 · Apr 18, 2014

Got an S5. Posted my Note 3 on eBay.

Played with S5 for 2 days. Canceled eBay listing. Returned S5 to store. Returned to Note 3.

Anyone almost defected?

I find the S5 very impressive. An abundant of awesome features.

But in the end, I missed the size of the Note.

Once go big, can't go any smaller

LOL! Is there a different feeling in your hand? What awesome features does S5 have?

A buddy of mine just got a S5, I wasn't very impressed....just...meeh.

Yeah a friend of mine got the S5 coming from a Note 2. The phone is about the same overall size and much smaller screen with larger bezels. I came from the S4 to the Note3 and the S5 would have been a nice jump from the S4 but not the Note 3. The only thing nicer is the isocell shooter. The 801 SoC is 2.5ghz but is 2.3ghz in every other phone. They really are the same chip just the S5's is actually overclocked. The gpu is the same as well just ours is clicked at 550mhz the S5 is at 578mhz. I don't need to buy a new phone to overclock my cpu and gpu. The new features likely will come to the Note 3 as well.

I was originally come on to post good luck with the S5, you may regret it. But it only took to2 days and already switched back lol

I dunno about that edge 2 edge screen unless it's somehow unbreakable, a little bezel makes bumper cases much easier and they're the lowest profile, so my favorite...

Lorettaa · Apr 19, 2014

They are going for on screen buttons?

Eric214 · Apr 19, 2014

Lol you do know that the photo is the same exact one that was used to show what the S5 was going to look like back in December. So that was wrong so now they are regurgitating that photo and using it to say that will be the new Note 4.

I can JUMP on May 2nd, and I plan on getting the S5 and keeping it until the Note 4. The size will be weird, but I'm bored with the Note 3, and I want a waterproof phone.

Lorettaa · Apr 19, 2014

I almost believed that it would look like that. LOL! But it looks good.

deeznutz1977 · Apr 19, 2014

The photo is a non issue for me. I linked because what the Samsung exec said..☺☺

BTW. I don't give a £u©k. What the phone looks like it will be my next. ?

I bought the Tmobile S5 full retail, to keep unlimited data. The camera, display, and battery are the best available. Getting 7-8 hours of screen on time is a breath of fresh air!

I get that on my note 3 with over a day of battery life just fine. Tweak your phone right and it lasts a long time.

I'm in the same boat as you and this is sort of my plan as well. I'm just torn between the two phones. I'm not sure if I'll miss the size. I guess it's only for a few months until the Note 4 comes out if I do regret it.

I'm averaging 9 hours of screen time per charge. I've gotten as much as 11 hours and never less then 7 hours of screen time with my Note 3. The S5 is nice but overall I still don't think it's as good as the Note 3. The Note 3's real competition with be the lg g3, the lg g pro 2 or the Note 4. The sd 800 and 801 are the same chip really just the 801 is overclocked and I can overclock the Note 3.
