Samsung Galaxy S5 Active finally spotted in the flesh, gets two video Rundowns

Samsung Galaxy S5 ActiveSomebody at Samsung must be exercising their super spy skills because TK Tech News is rolling in the Samsung leaks these days. The latest device to get a rundown by TK is the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active, specifically the AT&T version; we suspected that a previous device might have been the S5 Active, but this time the device is very clearly the real deal. Sporting a much beefier, waterproof exterior compared to the regular Galaxy S5, the S5 Active bears the same hallmarks of its predecessor including physical multitasking and back buttons and additional shielding on the case. Check it out in the video below:

If that’s not enough to satiate your leak cravings, TK went on to perform some benchmarks in a later video. You will see that the S5 Active has very similar specs to the regular Galaxy S5, including a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, 2GB RAM, a 1080p display, a 15.9 MP camera and Android 4.4.2.

As you can see in the videos, the S5 Active is every bit as fast and powerful as the Galaxy S5 with the added benefit of more protection and waterproofing (though we hope Samsung has revised their warranty terms this time around). We haven’t heard when Samsung is going to announce and release the device officially, but it’s looking as ready as ever and we should be seeing it in the very near future. Let us know what you think about the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active in the comments below.
