    No wonder they didn't have their own event this year. Shocking after last year to be honest. The S line has definitely hit the wall

    Even the battery sounds shockingly less than expected.

    10 hours browsing sounds good and 12 hours video play back. Pretty good.

    Sounds good, but I've learned from experience that what is theoretically achievable, never is in practice

    Yes from reading supposed specs and leaks over the last few weeks had me thinking it was going to be a higher resolution display.

    That black and white power saving feature sounds good.

    Why would you actually want one. It'd just drain your battery all the quicker for zero tangible benefit. 2k displays are just idiotic on these size devices.

    Some chinese phone company announced they are reasing a higher than full HD display on a phone. Looks like they will be the first.

    I'll ask you again. Why do you want one? Seriously, it just like megapixels. Higher numbers demanded by the marketing men so the ignorant will bite. Ignore the fact that it'lllead to worse perfo rmance, just look at the higher numbers.

    There is a market there for higher resolution phones. It's not 2k but higher than 1080P.
