Hi, I'm looking for a S5 and I really like this one, it costs 800lv, which is really good for my country and it's brand new plus it's the 32gb G-900F variant with a 2 year warranty. But take a look at one of the pictures posted in my attachment and please tell me if such an S5 even exists :D
I thought the 2 versions were the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 Quad Core and the Exynos 4 Octa Core, but this picture shows a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 with 8 cores ???? Any help is highly appreciated as I'm thinking of buying this for Christmas :)

I can't. This is just a pic from a site. I don't have the device with me, but it can clearly be seen that it says Snapdragon Octa.

It's nearly impossible to tell without the phone in hand. I was scammed before and the phone had Antutu pre-installed and was hacked to display the information of the authentic phone. Ask to see a shot from the apps the other guy suggested. Also, Antutu doesn't even look like that anymore. The older version would suggest to me that its a fake.

It is fake as snapdragon version is quad-core not octa and even the settings page is so different... Check with cpu z once... But this is for sure fake...

Thanks guys, one more question: which version is better and why - Qualcomm or Exynos? @azsamsancho and me think the S801 is better, but wanted to know why :)

Ok, the phone is obviously fake. I posted 2 comments regarding the picture from my attachment and both are deleted.
