Samsung Galaxy S5 to be announced at MWC 2014 at Unpacked Event – Details & New Leaked Photos

A couple fresh leaks have emerged showing the design of the Samsung Galaxy S5, sitting right beside the Galaxy S4, S3 and the LG Nexus 5. The leaked photos appeared on Moveplayer, and the design suggests that Samsung hasn’t done much of a change, and the look is more like the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 device. Let’s hope this is not how the Galaxy S5 should look, when it’s officially launched.

KGI Research is the latest to analyze something on the upcoming Galaxy device, and according to them, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is going to come with two different configurations – in the Prime and Standard versions. By the looks of it, there is no reason why one would rule this out and call this as a totally wrong list, because the specifications listed are almost the same which are being rumored since months now.
Just like we saw the Galaxy Note 3 in two variants based on connectivity – having the Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets, the Galaxy S5 is said to be having such configuration, and there would be two versions, the Prime one having 3GB RAM, while the Standard one having a 2GB RAM in it. The fingerprint support and 3D gesture support would be there on all the variants, and there is a 16-megapixel rear camera and 2850 mAh battery packed in.

The battery is always one of the important aspects in any smartphone, and when it comes to the flagship smartphones from th company, there are some challeges because of the display and huge powering which would make the battery last for less time. The Samsung Galaxy S5 battery is said to be better not just with the capacity, but also with the technology which would be used to save battery in a better way, and the charging options are going to get better by using the new Li-ion technology and the rapid charging.
According to a tipster who sent a report to Phonearena, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is going to have a 2900 mAh battery and although this is not really a very big change, as the Galaxy S4 has a 2600 mAh battery in it already, but the new Li-ion type of battery will be able to store around 20% more capacity while having the same size, so that nothing is compromised with the size.
The batteries for the flagship are made by a company called Amprius, a battery startup based in Silicon Vallery, and they have been shipping to the smartphone manufacturer recently, and the Samsung Galaxy S5 can become one of the first smartphones to get this battery.

Update: Rumors now claim that the Samsung Galaxy S5 will have a fingerprint scanner and not an Iris scanner which was being rumored earlier after the words from the VP of Mobile Business, Samsung. The Iris scanner would have a lot of challenges, and so Samsung is considering to include a biometric scanner for now in the next flagship smartphone from Samsung.

Earlier:
The executive vice president of mobile business at Samsung – Lee Young Hee, has said that they are considering to launch the Samsung Galaxy S5 with an Iris scanner by April, and if earlier, in the end of March 2014, and this would be along with the new Samsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch. This now makes it almost clear that Samsung is not looking to make any announcement during the MWC 2014, but will look to hold an event in March for the announcement, just like the predecessor Samsung Galaxy S4.

According to the VP of Samsung, the next flagship Samsung Galaxy smartphone is going to be announced during the MWC 2014 event. This was reported by the Korean Media at the New Year’s Party in Seoul. To add to it further, Samsung’s VP and Head of Design Strategy, Dong-hoon Chang said that Samsung is going to launch two premium flagships in the first of the year. He even said that the company is excited about the material being used for the Samsung Gaalxy S5. Exciting days ahead for sure.

After the rumors about the processor and the huge battery, cameras that might be coming in the Galaxy S5, we are now hearing that Samsung is considering to place a Quad HD screen with the screen resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 and along with that, there would be a fingerprint scanner as well as an Iris scanner. Imagine, having such a beautiful display, would really be good for the users, or would it drain power unnecessarily? Because, this is the resolution that you see on a 27-inch iMac from Apple.
According to BGR, contrary to the earlier rumors, Samsung will be launching two versions of the Galaxy S5, where the difference would be in the material used for the exterior – Plastic and Metal.

The Galaxy S5 with a metal body is quite certain, as suggested by a report as Samsung is seriously looking to move ahead of the plastic construction they have used in several Galaxy devices, and the S5 being the next best flagship device, the company would be looking to make the best that remains the best choice for the entire year.
There are several concept photos and videos being sent by the designers and fans but Samsung hasn’t said anything officially about the next Galaxy. Taiwanese company Catcher was one of the first to get a deal for the metal casings for an upcoming smartphone from Samsung, and there are expectations that it could be the S5 for which Catcher is going to start the production soon.

A video showing the concept of the Galaxy S5 showed quite a lot of high-end stuff and if this is all true, we are going to see a beast. That includes a 64-bit octa-core chipset, 3GB of RAM and a 5-inch (yes again a 5-inch one) with a better resolution, i.e. 2560 x 1440 pixels. The latest Snapdragon 805 processor was launched with the 16-megapixel camera support, and thus we are going to see a 16MP camera in this, and it would record 4k videos. The Android 4.4 KitKat OS is obvious, and we expecting to see a 4000 mAh battery packed in.
But, this is just a fan-made video. And still, we would be pretty happy to see if all this comes to reality.

One of the latest rumors about the next flagship smartphone from Samsung, i.e. the Galaxy S5 says that it would be coming with the 14 nm Exynos 6 64-bit CPU, and with this, it could be the first Android smartphone to have a 64-bit CPU? iPhone 5S from Apple has the 64-bit A7 chipset and Samsung won’t be waiting for long before they come out with the upgraded CPU.
The architecture would remain the same, with Samsung including the Octa-core architecture of the Exynos chipset but it expected that the new one would have the capability to run all the cores at once. The production of these chipsets is expected to be by the end of this year, and Samsung would be the first to use the Exynos 6 chipset in the Galaxy S5.
