I wish they would have cleaned up the menu a bit.

I find the rubber backs tend to feel a LOT better in the hand. Finally got rid of that slippery plastic.

+1 I hate the slippery phones. Can't use in one hand if its 4''

Very hard to.navigate the settings IMHO.

That would be good. I hope UAG comes up with a good case soon. I have to count that for the phone size. It has saved my phone a few times.

True, but why break what's not broke?

People do want new things. Sometimes as mundane as a new look.

It's just way too busy for my taste. The device itself is great. If they would fix up that menu I might have gotten an S3. Meanwhile after that they are just getting too big for my smaller hands.

Guess I'll have to way for some more in depth review videos to see what the menu is really like.

Water-resistant

I use my HTC One with wet hands and near water a lot. Never had an issue yet. I'd say most phones are water resistant now a days.

The Q is how water resistant is it? Any more details about what they mean exactly?

Galaxy S5 waterproof and dust-proof in alliance with military spec IP67, which means that it can take a bath for up to 30 minutes at about 3 feet down.

Sounds good to me! Good for those accidental swims some phones like to take.

My mother's iPhone did a dive about a month ago. Phones been working great still.  I was a bit surprised actually.

[sky121]

Alright, so who's getting a Galaxy s5 around here?

[efflpetzel]

I'm disappointed, was expecting a game changer

[sky121]

At the rate these phones are coming out I don't think you can expect such things all the time.

Just out of curiosity what would you have liked to see?
