Based on a leaked document from Samsung that was chanced upon in February, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update shall come to the Galaxy either in March or April although Samsung has yet to come out with a specific date for such.
The Galaxy S5 may be the most unpopular flagship smartphone of Samsung as it is actually the reason why Samsung lost its grip in 2014 to the title of the world’s best smartphone manufacturer.
Apparently, it was not the smartphone per se but the very little improvement of the Galaxy S5 over its predecessor, the Galaxy S4.
And it was also the reason why Samsung decided to bounce back big time last year with the groundbreaking designs of the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge, which appear to have been sustained by the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 Edge upon its formal unveiling late last month.
Critics recently compared the Galaxy S5 with its contemporary flagship smartphone from the other Korean handset maker, LG, the G3.
Based on the comparisons in the aspects of design, display, processors, graphics card, RAM, storages, cameras, and batteries, it seems that the Galaxy S5 has advantage over most categories with the exception of design where the G3 seems to have the edge.
