OK, let's get back to the original review. So really think about buying something like the OnePlus 3T instead - you'll be glad you've got something a bit newer. The thing is, it's packed with much older tech than other phones that cost the same, and it won't be getting an Android Nougat, nor will it receive Android Oreo, thanks to phones powered by Google's OS having a much shorter software upgrade cycle. It's a pretty woolly place out there when it comes to buying the Galaxy S5 as most places are running out of stock, so you'll be advised to shop around. It'll be about $220 for the same thing, and AU$350. If you're thinking of still picking the Galaxy S5, it'll set you back £190 in the UK, with the refurbished or second hand markets the place to get your hands on it. However, it's hard to point to one stand out feature that will grab the prospective user when they handle the Galaxy S5 for the first time.Īnd now it's been in the market for a long time, and most places aren't even stocking it thanks to the fact the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S7 and now, the Samsung Galaxy S8 have emerged to take the mantle of flagship from Samsung, and both offer a much better experience and design.
