    Oh, I know it has a great camera - all of the high end Lumias do. I'm hoping for a 1080p 5" Windows Phone 8.1 Lumia. Basically, the Lumia Icon with a few more bells and whistles.

    I was going to get the Moto X but I knew the phone I got this go-round would have to last a full 12 months, and I can't see the hardware on the Moto X making it that long without some significant lag setting in around months 8-10. I wish I had got it when it first came out. Fantastic features.

    Please tell me that back of the S5 is an early April fools joke. WTF.

    I have the S3 and wanted to upgrade to an S5, but I just cant do it if the back looks like that. I'll just wait for another phone.

    I blame Apple. Samsung doesn't have anything copy from Apple because the iphone design also has stagnated.

    Not sure why Samsung didn't just start ripping off window phones.

    Don't like the body design on the S5. Looks awful. But most people will probably put it in a case.

    Reminds me of the Nexus 7's back (2013 version). I'm assuming the Nexus 7 would have looked the same if it weren't just in black.
