Now that we have a set date for what is likely to be the Samsung Galaxy S5‘s announcement, the focus of the media has now turned to what the S5 actually looks like and what hardware are we expecting. Well, if there was anyone who was going to leak us the details regarding this, it was going to be Eldar Murtazin, who has just today tweeted out what the Samsung Galaxy S5 specs are going to be.
If Murtazin’s tweet is to be believed, the S5 will be rocking either a Samsung-made Exynos 6 or a Snapdragon 805 processor with 3GB RAM and a choice of either a 32GB or 64GB storage variant. He also says that the display will be a 5.24-inch, 2560×1440 resolution AMOLED (that’s 2K resolution for everyone interested) and the front and rear cameras will be 3.2MP and 16MP respectively. Rounding out the specs, the battery in the S5 is said to be a monstrous 3,200mAh package, a massive jump in capacity over the 2,600mAh in the S4.
For me, there’s nothing groundbreaking about the specs here except the battery capacity. We had heard that the S5’s battery would be utilizing new technology that would allow it to store more battery capacity with only a minor increase in physical size, but 3,200mAh is a lot bigger than expected and exactly the same size as the Galaxy Note 3’s battery. Given the S5’s smaller screen, this will result in a huge boost in battery power over its predecessor. That is, if this is all true…
