There are a couple of features that stood out for me in this amazing Galaxy S5 smartphone.

Here are the top 5 unique and amazing features of the Galaxy S5 for me.

1. Dust and Water Resistant Body.

Yes, the Samsung Galaxy S5 delivers with its IP67 certified which means it is resistant to water and dust. If you're worried that water will go inside the USB port, dont. The phone has a flap that protects it. Did a couple of test myself which I shared on this post.

2. S Health & Heart Rate Monitor

The S Health is Samsung's app that focus on health and wellness. You can download and use these apps anytime and anywhere.

  

I personally liked the Pedometer and Exercise app. You can set goals and beat your personal best. 

Samsung Galaxy S5 is the the first smartphone to have a built-in heart rate monitor. Taking part and addressing those health conscious people who's always on the go, the Galaxy S5 puts in this feature making users conscious about their health, they activity and a whole lot more. The monitor is placed at the back next to the LED flash and will  track the user's heart rate through the index finger. 

3. Finger Sensor 

The Finger Scanner on the Galaxy S5 is at the phone's Home button. Users need to swipe their fingers and not hold it. The scanner can be used to unlock the phone and for authenticating payments via Paypal.

4. Faster Internet Connection

With the Galaxy S5 LTE Frequency with LTE Category 4 Standard, the Galaxy S5 also have this unique feature called the Download Booster. It combines Wi-Fi and LTE connections to achieve faster download speeds. 

5. Improved Camera with 4K video.

With Samsung Galaxy S5's improved 16MP rear camera, it is capable of recording 4K video at 300 frames per second. It offers the word's fastest auto-focus speed up to 0.3 seconds. Now isn't that just amazing.

Okay, I know I said only 5 but I just had to add this one. :)

6. Ultra Power Saving Mode. 

This feature has saved me a couple of times. It not only supports regular low power mode preserving its battery power but it comes with the Ultra Power Saving feature extending your battery life. It changes the screen to black and white and shuts down all unnecessary features to minimize battery consumption. Samsung promises that with the 10% battery, the Galaxy S5 can last up to 12 hours to 24 hours depends how often you use if for calls and text. Great feature for those who's always on their mobile phones.
