Bigger resolution isn't everything, the S5 takes better pictures than the K Zoom despite having lower resolution.
Also, interestingly, the Note 4 has 8x zoom, a first for a Samsung phone, how comes the S5 only had 4x despite having the same resolution? Is it because of the new SD805 processor?
I'm not agree on this one because their are many problems with the sensor., the camera of the S5 four problems.
Problem 1: colors blind
Problem 2: over sharp
Problem 3: not good in low light
Problem 4: unnatural colors.
Only many reviewers get paid by Samsung, it's very know that Samsung paid reviewers of their product. |

A full charge from 1% to 100% took around 3 hours and 20 minutes. I didn't record the time unfortunately but going from 1% to 50% took about 1 hour.
and SURPRISE SURPRISE, the z3 has better viewing angles from the bottom side:

They look bad. All of the low-light shots I've seen from other reviews look worse than Z2. It's too soft. His outdoor shots also look bad, though. Probably a faulty device? Other reviews show very good shots with strong light.

Got my Z3 in copper yesterday and it is really stunning in person.
The design, even though similar to the rest of the Zs, is such a leap forward. The simplified sides just make all the difference, it feels so much more premium and the phone feels like it has lost weight over the Z2, feeling more like the original Z than the slightly chubbier Z1 and Z2.
Software-wise there aren't many obvious changes over the Z2 but there are small details that count like the phone knowing when to auto-rotate so it doesn't rotate the screen if you're lying on the couch, etc. The most obvious difference to the look of the UI is that it all seems a bit cleaner and more modern and the app icons seem about 20% bigger. After charging it full last night, using it heavily all evening, going to work today where it saw medium usage, then coming home and using it a bit more, the battery now says 50% at 8:30pm. Pretty good (although my Z2 used to do two days easily as well without Stamina mode).
I haven't been able to test the camera properly, it still has the protective plastic over the screen and back because I don't have screen protectors or a case yet.

Mobilegeeks' review
http://www.youtube.com/watch?[....]=player_embedded&v=7UVi2EeMAcc
shows how great the screen's outdoor visibility has become
the reviewer says that you can adjust the exposure easily while shooting something. can someone here who already has the device verify if this quick exposure control feature is also available on the superior auto mode?

Can you guys with the Z3 take low-light, very low-light if possible, photos? I see all low-light photos taken with the Z3 and Z3C look very bad, waaay worse than Z2.
BTW, please use SA and manual. I think it's the auto mode pushing it to very high ISO that makes low-light photos suck.

SRS-BTV5. The top part is a separate darker piece compared to the SRS-X1 where the whole frame is a single part.
