We know that Samsung is preparing two variants of the new flagship. Meanwhile on the German Amazon appeared offer accessories for the Galaxy S5. The description of this product says that it is a case of “Galaxy S5 and S5 Prime Galaxy “.

Postscript “Prime” in the name of the other models allows us to suggest that the differences in terms of a cheaper version of the smartphone will be more. For now, we know that it is present in screen resolutions. Who knows, maybe the Galaxy S5 Prime will have a fingerprint scanner, and a regular model does not

About all we will see as early as next Monday. Samsung Unpacked 5 Conference will be held February 24 at 20:00.

All that we know so far about Galaxy S5. Shortly before the premiere - Gazeta.pl

On Monday, February 24 Samsung (probably) will present officially smarfon another series of Galaxy S. The “top five” officially known little, the network appeared to have a lot of reports on the smartphone. One seems to be the only general hardware specs, the rest is more or less but still unknown.


Specifications

– Super AMOLED screen with HD resolution, the second version 2560×1440 pixels (2K) and the diagonal of approximately 5.24 “, the density of 560ppi

– Exynos processor 6 (Asian version) / Snapdragon 805 (European version)

– camera with a resolution of 16 megapixels (some sources confirmed a photo package, say a 20 MP)

– Layout: Adreno 330

– 4GB RAM

– Android 4.4 KitKat

– the battery capacity of 3200mAh

This specification scrolls mostly in networking technology. He confirmed it, inter alia, Eldar Murtazin, the Russian blogger dealing with technology.

Twitter Fig. Twitter

screen with a resolution of 2K? Yes, but not now

Industry sources say

that although the Samsung AMOLED screens alone produces in S5 find the product Sharp. Specifically, LCD screen Super AMOLED Low Temperature Polysilicon (LTPS). PCWorld Magazine explains what are characterized by such screens:

Technology Low Temperature Poly Silicon TFT (LTPS-TFT) is based on a different manufacturing process than the “traditional” TFT: by maintaining low temperatures during production, matrix TFT control systems are integrated directly into the substrate glass. LTPS-TFT displays are high resolution and brightness, as well as nearly 40 percent less energy.

Why, then, Samsung has decided to outsource the production of screens competitor, although he makes them? According to industry rumors the Korean giant wants to focus on the production of OLED TVs and fears of its production capacity.

According to previous information in the S5 would have to find a screen resolution of 2K (2560×1440 pixels). Latest news portal BGR shed more light on this issue. Samsung had reportedly plans the launch of two versions of the S5 – one with a screen resolution of HD, the second screen with a resolution of 2K. Improved version had to hit the market in March, now says that the term has “moved by several months.”

even greater doubts about the display you can have after reading reports The Korea Herald . As we reported a week ago Samsung S5 would be equipped with a screen without the metal frame. This would allow for a new kind of interaction with the smartphone. S5 would be the first of this type of phone on the market. It is also worth mentioning that a similar solution has reportedly found the iPhone 6

Camera

Another source confirm that the camera built into the Galaxy S5 will have a resolution of 16 megapixels. Androidauthority.com announces that it will work in twenty different modes (such as 3D Tour Shot 3D Panorama, Golf, Aqua, Drama, Auto potrait, HDR). The camera will operate in the new technology Isocell. With it you can create a recording of 4K resolution (30fps) and 1080p (60fps).


Appearance

network attempts to analyze patents Samsung and its earlier announcement mingle with visions of graphic designers – so it is not certain how it will look S5. It is not known so that the new smartphone will have more than the previous rounded corners, or Samsung abandon the very recognizable the “Home”. In the accordance with clause must also mention the “no frames”.

There is also information that the S5 will be available in a metal housing. Again, nothing is clear to the end: some sources say that the housing is made of stainless steel, other that the plastic, and still others, the phone will have just a metal door. Perhaps all of this information is confirmed, because Samsung can prepare different versions of your smarfonu. So we’ll have a cheaper version because “plastic” and the more expensive “premium”. This allowed the Koreans to simultaneously satisfy the malcontents who criticize his years products “plastikowo??” and take care of those who do not want to pay extra to the metal casing.


fingerprint reader built into the display? Well …

appeared in the media about the fact that the S5 would have to find a fingerprint reader built-in screen. Pisano also of the iris scanner. More likely the first solution.

According to the latest information portal BGR, , contrary to earlier leaks, the reader will be built into the Home button. Similarly, in the case of the iPhone 5S.

Blog SamMobile claims to know how the scanner will work. Fingerprint Scanning will require moving the thumb after the “Home”, in the course of this operation is to be on display on the phone screen in “real time”. S5 will scan up to eight fingerprints, one will be used to unlock the camera, the rest to the individual applications.

“Five” has also receive improved TouchWiz interface. It has to be a simpler, more intuitive and slightly redesigned (some style reminiscent of iOS 7, the system which is equipped with Apple’s mobile equipment).

Galaxy S5 is also characterized by other changes in the software. According to the website KnowYourMobile Koreans opted out of the next “fireworks”.


“What should we expect from the Galaxy S5 when he tricks such as tracking eye movement and all the bloatware has been removed? Simply: a better camera, improved design, a faster processor.”

Waterproof and cheaper?

Bloomberg arrived to the information, according to which the Galaxy S5 has to be waterproof. Specifically: you will be able to wash it with water and put on a “short-term immersion.”

The same source claims that the Galaxy S5 “is likely to be cheaper than their predecessors.”

“ceremonial opening” the box containing the Galaxy S5 will take place during the exhibition Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next Monday. Our editorial staff will be on site, so do not forget to visit us. Samsung

Android 4.4 KitKat for Galaxy S III? Forget it, does not have enough memory ... - PC World

Networks reveal a list of devices sold in Poland Samsung, which will receive Android 4.4 KitKat. Unfortunately, it ran on the model Galaxy S III.

Yesterday we reported for official confirmation upgrade to Android 4.4 KitKat for many Galaxy devices sold in the United States . Today Robert Nawrowski presented the official international (that is, of course, on the Polish) niebrandowanych list of gadgets from Samsung, which will receive KitKat directly or indirectly “by including” pre Android 4.3 .

This list is as follows:

– Samsung Galaxy Note 3
– Samsung Galaxy S4
– Samsung Galaxy S4 Active
– Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini
– Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom
– Samsung Galaxy Note II
– Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition)

3 – Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0
3 – Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
3 – Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3
– Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8
– Samsung Galaxy Grand
– Samsung Galaxy Express 2

As you can see, run on the model of the Galaxy S III. Why if he was on the list of the U.S.? Robert Nawrowski writes that Samsung’s official position is that due to the small amount of RAM (versions Korean, Japanese and American have 2 GB RAM), which seems quite strange, because for example the Galaxy Grand also has 1 GB of RAM, and made the list. In addition Android 4.4 KitKat boasts that copes better memory management can be installed on devices with 512 MB of RAM.

Galaxy S III and the problem of Android 4.4. What in the end of this update? - Computer World (press release)

Two days ago, the network appeared on a list of Samsung’s smartphones and tablets, slated for renovation. The point, of course, the latest version of Android, namely 4.4 KitKat. The list was published service Phandroid, citing its sources in the American branch of Samsung. He wrote about it, my editorial colleague David Dlugosz.

What is characteristic of this statement? The presence on it of many models of devices, including the Galaxy S III.

And everything would be beautiful, if not the second list released yesterday by the Polish blogger, Robert Nawrowskiego. Based on local sources, Nawrowski identifies a total of 16 devices that could count on an upgrade. His statement is more accurate than the U.S.. Unfortunately, the key divergence in relation to the U.S. list is the lack of the Galaxy S III. Are you with me?

If you’ve been following the news about the upcoming ponytail, in the last days you can get them to twist the intestines. Perhaps some users Galaxy S III would like today to know what specifically can count. In the end, if further official support not count, you might as well reach for Android with unofficial distribution and be done with it.

Unfortunately, I have called for you. sure thing. But I’ll try to explain how the presence of Galaxy S III on one list and its lack on the other. A clue let it be the same translation of Robert Nawrocki, who writes about the lack of updates for the model with 1 GB of RAM. General confusion about the renovation S3-ki is not, despite appearances, the effect of media diarrhea, but the consequence of policies Samsung. The manufacturer released since launched several versions of the smartphone, which today we managed to forget the marketing winds Galaxy S4 and rumors about the upcoming S5.

if these versions of the Galaxy S III? He counted six, and I’m not sure if something is not missed. Four versions dedicated to hit the U.S. market: I747 (model exclusive to AT & T), T999 (model for T-Mobile USA), and I535 and L710 (CDMA version for operators Sprint and Verizon). In Europe, the Galaxy S III appeared in two versions. Most Popular I9300, which is of poor call classical S3-ka, as well as some lesser-known version of the I9305. The latter is nothing but the Galaxy S III LTE, which is a model offering the ability to use faster mobile Internet. He made his debut on the market in September 2012, so a few months after the launch of I9300.

0003. jpg

In Europe, the Galaxy S III appeared in the classic version, and later versions of LTE. The latter is more likely to upgrade


So what’s with this update?

Under the most likely scenario, Android 4.4 KitKat will go to … all versions of the Galaxy S III, that have 2 GB of RAM.

What does it mean? More or less, that all users will get the update S3-ki in the United States, and only some users in Europe. On our continent, and therefore also in Poland, most of the models of the Galaxy S III is a classic version – I9300. Unfortunately, it has only 1 GB of RAM. The smartphone version of LTE (I9305) armed wary because the 2 GB of RAM, so if in the next few weeks will not explode a grenade, it meets the criteria for an update to Android 4.4 KitKat.

002 jpg

In contrast to Europe, all models of Galaxy S III, which were sold in the U.S. had 2 GB of RAM

course, because of the fact that in life some are only death and taxes, the situation may change. Few, however, unlikely that any amendments to the list of Samsung devices ready for adoption KitKat were adjustments to the benefit of users. Assuming of course, that both circulating on the network list are actually “official”. Practice shows that even the “official” is not always in the smartphone industry is “final”.

manufacturers of smartphones have a nasty tendency for official support for cutting when it’s convenient for them. In this case, as reported by Robert Nawrowski, the reason may be the already mentioned too little RAM. Samsung is known for its relatively rapid process of renovation and reduce fragmentation of Android, at least on top models of their devices. Unfortunately, even in the case of the Korean manufacturer comes a point when you have to somehow convince people to buy a newer model of the flagship smartphone.

What remains in this situation? Among other things, Cyanogen Mod CM11, based on Android 4.4 KitKat. The authors of the unofficial modifications somehow does not bother 1 GB of RAM in the Galaxy S III (I9300).

Samsung Galaxy S4 mini – test smartphone “maxi” housing “mini”

Samsung Galaxy GT-I9505 S4 – Test

At the end of November last year we informed you about Samsung’s plans for the release of version 4.4 KitKat – then the network went document with the timetable of the South Korean company, namely the Indian R & D department It noted tops mobile devices that will receive the update to Android 4.4.2 operating system.

Recently, the American branch of Samsung has revealed the official and complete list of which is as follows:

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 3
  • Samsung Galaxy Note II
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Active
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom
  • Samsung Galaxy S III
  • Samsung Galaxy S III mini
  • Samsung Galaxy Mega
  • Samsung Galaxy Light
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 3
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition)

Now, thanks to an entry on the blog Robert Nawrowskiego, met Schedule smartphones and tablets available in the international market, which will also receive the appropriate update. Here it is:

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 3
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Active

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 3
  • Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3
  • Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8
  • Samsung Galaxy Grand
  • Samsung Galaxy Express 2

Both lists look almost identical, but worrying is the lack of Samsung Galaxy SIII on the other. The smartphone has already received some time ago to upgrade to version 4.3 Jelly Bean and despite the fact that since its release it had been a long time, recent reports have suggested that users, however, live to see the “KitKat”. According to the official information obtained by Robert Nawrowskiego from Samsung, the cause is too “small amount of RAM”, which is the argument of not having any basis, since the Galaxy Grand also has enough memory, and the list has not been deleted. What’s more, the operating system “KitKat” was yet optimized for even with 512 MB … The blogger added at the end that this message applies only to the 1-gigabyte, so if you are the model of the Samsung Galaxy S III with 2 GB of memory, it is very possible that you will be able to download in the relatively near future upgrade to Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

Exact dates available updates to the various models of “galactic” Samsung’s family were not disclosed. But you can expect them soon – probably later in the next few months. In turn, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S5, which will be officially announced next week at MWC 2014 will be immediately installed the latest “KitKat”.
