- SamMobile, which has been fairly accurate with its Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) scoops, reports the Galaxy S5 will come in both a costlier metal and cheaper plastic versions, and feature a 2K (2560x1440) OLED display in the 5.25" range.
- The Galaxy S4, by contrast, features a 5" 1080p display. A Korean site previously reported the S5 would come in metal and plastic versions, while adding the metal version would also have a curved display.
- Universal Display's (NASDAQ:OLED) shares recently sold off on a report from a Chinese site stating the S5 would use Sharp LCDs instead of OLEDs, but the small size of the drop suggested investors were skeptical from the start.
- SamMobile also reports the S5 will have a 16MP camera (the S4 has a 13MP camera), and that it will rely on both Samsung's Exynos 6 CPU and Qualcomm's (NASDAQ:QCOM) recently-announced Snapdragon 805 (its new flagship). The S4 uses a combo of Samsung's Exynos 5 and Qualcomm's Snapdragon 600.
- Meanwhile, Italian journalist Flavio Piccioni reports Samsung will host its S5 event in mid-March. That's exactly when Samsung hosted its S4 event last year.
