The Samsung S5 has become one of the most anticipated phones of 2014, and it's not even close to being released yet. So, with that in mind, we decided to compile a list of things that we know about the phone so far

  • Originally, the release date was going to be on Feb. 23 in Barcelona. But now it's emerged that Feb. 23 will be the day that the phone's release date will be announced, which some believe won't be until about March
  • Improved one-hand functions
  • A whole new music player
  • An all-new design
  • Android 4.4 KitKat Innards
  • A 5.25-inch display
  • A Snapdragon 805 quad core processor

"Murtazin explained via Twitter on Thursday that there is now no set unveiling date for the Galaxy S5, though Samsung may be considering London for its launch location. This is not the first time we've seen this location proposed for the S5 launch event; an Italian freelance tech journalist by the name of Flavio also claimed recently that the upcoming device might be unveiled in mid-March in London. At the time the claim was not quite taken seriously as most evidence leaned toward an unveiling at or around WMC, but now many may take it into consideration.

"Samsung executive vice president of mobile business Lee Young Hee recently told Bloomberg that the manufacturer has plans to release the Galaxy S5 between March and April, also mentioning plans to go 'back to the basics' with the Galaxy S5. But currently, the exact meaning of that clue is unknown. In any event the actual unveiling date for the Galaxy S5 will likely be leaked at some point. It was Murtazin who accurately predicted the March 14 unveiling of the Galaxy S4, but that date did not surface until less than a month prior to the show," reports the International Business Times.
