Samsung Announced Samsung Galaxy S5

Samsung just announced the most expected Samsung Galaxy S5 on MWC Barcelona. The Samsung Galaxy S5 will be available on April 11th in 150 countries. In US, it’ll be available on Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, MetroPCS and U.S. Cellular. They have announced the Gear 2, Gear Fit and Neo smartwatches on the event as well. If you’d rather go elsewhere for your mobile needs, retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, RadioShack, Sam’s Club, Target and Walmart will have the GS5 plus all three of Samsung’s newly announced wearables. On UK, UK providers EE, Three and Vodafone UK have jumped aboard the GS5 bandwagon, as have retailers Phones4u and Carphone Warehouse. No word on pricing just yet, but we expect we’ll find that out closer to the phone’s April launch date.

The Galaxy S 5s 16 megapixel rear-facing camera will capture images that can be edited in the onboard camera studio. Camera studio can add effects to photos and edit movies with a complete suite of editing tools within the Gallery. The Galaxy S 5 also captures crisp HD video, which can be saved to the 16 GBs and 32 GBs of internal storage.
