Display 

The Galaxy S5 has a 5.1 inch Super AMOLED screen, placing it on the larger end of smartphone screens. Because its screen is 5 inches or larger, this phone also qualifies as a phablet. This also means that for most users, the phone will be difficult to use with one hand vs phones with smaller screens.

The screen has a resolution of 1,920 pixels by 1,080 pixels, making it a 1080p HD screen. Display sharpness can be measured in pixels per inch (PPI), and at 432 pixels-per-inch of screen, it's 85% sharper than an average screen.

CAMERA

It has a 2.1 megapixel front camera and a 16 megapixel primary (rear) camera. It can capture 4K high definition video with its primary camera, the highest resolution current smartphones support.
