google play?
spotify premium instead of 'your' songs?
buy another phone, while some of them still have expandable storage? (I can see everyone copying Apple - you want 64GB, pay more for it to be built in, in metal backed phones).
I'm more peeved at the lack of spare battery swap out and the lack of waterproofing. 2 things that made Samsung S5 worth buying.

or wait. If enough buyers don't go for the S6, they'll revert back with the S7 or whatever they call it.
Xperia Z3 or Z3 Compact - the phone Samsung would like to build.

I think Samsung decided the USB3 pulls more power from the battery to give no useful increase in the speed of read/write to the phone.

I've decided on getting the Iphone this year, is it worth getting the 16GB version?
How much usable memory would I get from that?

I will try to store as little as possible.
You complain about the S6 then chose to go for a phone with even less memory?

From your other thread it doesn't look like you'll be getting any phone

I tried it on my oneplusone phone, so no samsung intervention. I wont let that mess near my S5

The samsung version of lollipop will probably be an improvement as their design team has a clue.

Funny some people hate e.g. that the contacts in touchwiz is still got some gingerbread design elements, they fail to understand the reason for that is those design elements are successful and more practical than what google now use.

The EU S5 LTE-A model number G901F has the same screen res as the standard S5.

Here is a link comparing it to the S6. I think you mistaken it for the korean version which has a higher res and more ram.

Honestly, the Samsung version of 5.0 on the S5 is very similar to 4.4, i.e. they have beaten Android with an ugly stick. However 5.0 on the S6 does look a lot better, proving Samsung can design decent software. It still doesn’t look as beautiful as stock Android though.

If someone already has a standard S5 I don’t see any value what so ever of getting the slightly updated version.

I managed to get a phone yesterday, I went for Samsung Note 4, I often change my mind a lot, glad I went for it though, great phone.

stock android 5.0 is far from beautiful, it feels like windows 3.1 in design.

ICS did look nice, but google have took massive steps back recently, and what are those weird icons they use for the soft buttons a triangle circle and square, is it for toddlers?

Interesting there is unhappy people who went from a samsung phone to say a nexus, hating the UI and samsung is carrying android with all its sales.
