The Galaxy S5 is here. Our main takeaway from our brief time with the Galaxy
S5 so far is that Samsung is has been listening to customers and critics
alike, and has finally gotten around to addressing many of our gripes with
its build quality, software and UI. It's still a plastic phone, and a plastic
phone running TouchWiz at that, but the GS5 represents a clear improvement
for Samsung in a bunch of important areas. The new Samsung UI strikes us as
something we might enjoy using, rather than software that's just there. And
the soft-touch back feels infinitely nicer in the hand than the glossy, slimy
plastic of old. It still baffles me how Sony, HTC, and even the Chinese
manufacturers can make such beautiful, elegant, and well-built Android
phones, and then people go out and buy Samsung Galaxy phones. They're so...
Eh.
