13 Things You Can Do With The Galaxy S5 That You Can't Do With The iPhone 5S
Because Samsung partnered with PayPal, you can use your fingerprint to make secure payments from your phone.
You can drop it in water for a few minutes without it breaking. We all know what happens after an iPhone takes a dive...
The rear camera flash has a built-in heart rate monitor so you can check your pulse right from your phone.
The camera shoots 16-megapixel photos (the iPhone 5S camera only has 8 megapixels). It's also better than the iPhone for taking pictures of moving objects.
Like the iPhone, the Galaxy S5 comes in 16GB and 32GB models. The iPhone also has a 64GB model, but the S5 has a microSD memory card slot, expandable to a whopping 128GB.
Oh, and the front-facing camera is better, too, so your selfies won't be as grainy-looking.
The Galaxy S5 is also the first phone with live HDR preview, so you can see what the popular effect will do to your pic before you shoot it.
And you can shoot video in 4K (that’s four times HD resolution).
The Galaxy S5 lets you toggle through different modes if you're lending it to someone. Easy Mode simplifies the interface and Kids Mode restricts it.
A Galaxy S5 can literally reduce its screen to black and white to save you battery. When the phone gets low on power, it drops into a monochrome power-saving mode, which doubles the remaining battery life.
And if your battery starts sucking, you can remove it, and replace it with a new one. Can't do that with an iPhone.
You can use the Galaxy S5 as a remote, because it has an infrared blaster on the top.
The Galaxy S5 has an image chip that dynamically adjusts the color and contrast of the screen based on the light around you, so you can see it well in all environments.
