Samsung S5 Sponsored Review

Hey guys its been a while since you last see me!

So as you may know from my recent Instagram post I got myself a SAMSUNG S5 LTE! Never in my life that I would've thought that I will get an ANDRIOD phone after using iPhone for the past 5-6years! Hahaha

So here's my CHIO Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE in Charcoal Black!

Hahaha seriously I love it so much I had to protect it with a layer of screen protector to take photos with it HAHAA

So many of you might already know how good the phone is etc etc from reviews online and by reading it from their website... So now I'm going to let you know my review on the Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE...

As you know, to me, photos are the most important thing in my life. Therefore the first thing I checked with the phone was the FRONT CAMERA.

I mean the front camera is so important

If not how to take nice selfies!!! Hahaha and to my surprise, the new Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE actually has this special function called

BEAUTY MODE


OKAY THIS MODE IS NO STRANGER TO ANYONE I GUESS.
Not just that it's an effect that beautify your face to have flawless skin, it brightens your pictures too!

And the good thing about it is that there are 5 levels to the Beauty Mode!

Level 1 to 5.
1 being the lowest and 5 being flawless

So here are some shots that I took with normal light conditioning so that you guys will know how it looks like normally :

EH. WHERE'S MY BEAUTY MODE. HAHAH can you see the difference? With and without beauty mode. There's such a big difference man! 

Bad thjng about beauty mode is that if you use it too much you will become heavily dependent on it HAHAHA

Next up is of cos the back camera!

SAM_7954

Good thing about the back camera is that it has selective focus

20140510_123110

Took this sample photo at the meeting that day look at the product within less than a second! The Fast Auto Focus feature allows me to take photos in 0.3 seconds, and with Selective Focus, the background is blurred away while the front object is sharpened, creating depth in the photo!

It's so clear!!!
And also there's this cool real time HDR function that can brighten your photos when there's a backlight.
ga

Before HDR

20140511_112350

and AFTER. Can you see the difference? The first image is obviously very dark and blurry compared to the second one! Second one is whiter and with the features being more clear it will be easier for you to edit your photos with other cool photo apps! Haha

So here's me trying to compare the HDR and Non HDR mode....

20140511_112450

Without HDR

20140511_112456

with HDR. Oh dear it's so obvious that with HDR is clearer and makes the whole picture look nicer too oh my god AHAHAHAHAA I'm so happy!!!!


And the next thing I find very intersting is that you can take photos like this : 

20140511_112922

Ignore my just wake up de face but hey look there's a dual camera you can use front and back and take photos at the same time! YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? HAHAHA you can actually fake like you're trying to camwhore then you take photos of people from the other side can stomp them leh HAHAHAHAHAHAHA SO CLEVER HOR ME LOL!!! 

Okay enough with cameras let's take about something else which is more important HAHAA

SAM_7963

The private mode function! 

I know right. A lot of you nowadays purposely download apps to private photos that you don't want other people to see.. Honestly to me it's not very useful la cos I have nothing much to hide HAHAHAAH!! Okay but for the people out there who wants a private mode to keep your photos here it is :

You can actually do many patterns like not just your pass code maybe your thumb print or a pattern shape can be the pass code! For me I like passcodes in numbers HAHAA SOOO....

Screenshot_2014-05-11-11-35-48

Here is the normal photo gallery without private mode and once you key in your passcode here it is :

So I've actually unlocked hellven's secret private photos! HAHAHAHAHA want to see is it? Guess my passcode lor HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

Next up is what I guess Samsung is focusing on this new product...

SAM_7973

It is the Enhanced S Health App which promotes health awareness!

With this app, you get access to various Exercise modes and even real time fitness coaching!

Well, as many of you know… I used to work at the gym and I used to do seminars with health promotion board so trust me when I say that it is very important for us to always keep fit and stay healthy.

This is the S health Menu which you can record many things in your daily life like walking steps and exercising!

Screenshot_2014-05-11-11-31-40

This is your profile page which will show your your BMI ! Oh my god in fat as hell AHAHAHAA

There is also this special built-in Heart Rate Sensor at the back of the GALAXY S5 LTE, which tracks our heart rate and optimizes workout routines to achieve our fitness goals.

Take a look at my resting heart rate HAHAHA means I'm healthy COS I EXERCISE HAHAHAAHHAHA!!!!

ALSO, The GALAXY S5 LTE also comes with a set of specially curated third party content and services via GALAXY Gifts (worth over US$500). So what is GALAXY Gifts?

GALAXY Gifts are essentially applications that GALAXY S5 LTE users can download and use them in their daily lives, and some examples are: Lark and Run Keeper. These applications are especially useful for those fitness junkies who are looking for recommendations on how to be fitter and healthier.

Of ‘cos I won't say everything out here if not you wouldn't be able to explore liao! Hahaa

Okay so here's another feature of this amazing phone : 

SAM_8045

THE HOLY ULTRA POWER SAVING MODE 

OH MY GOD YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS TO ME?

IF YOURE USING AN IPHONE… … …YOU WILL KNOW HOW I FEEL.

Every time I take the MRT from my house to town, my phone from 100% will drop dramatically till 60%.
That's so much battery life I know you can say… Eh portable charger?

NOOO you know sometimes there will be time like this when you FORGET TO BRING YOUR PORTABLE CHARGER OR FOR GOD SAKE BROUGHT YOUR CHARGER BUT NEVER BRING YOUR CABLE OUT. (which I did last week FYI ) and like your phone is dying on it's way.

Really, this is so important and with this awesome function.. It can make your phone last for a long time!

This function allows you to still be able to use your phone with limited apps (limited but still got fb and twitter leh) and can make you last for like a few days! Think about it remember the movie ' 
BURIED' IMAGINE YOURE TRAPPED IN A CASKET! You need your phone to survive and please lor I used to say ' if I were to be in the buried movie I would've died without a few hours if I brought my iPhone along ' HAHAHAHAHAA

One more thing about the Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE is that it is water and dust resistant (IP673), because of its special rubber-sealed cover that keeps out dust particles and water for up to 30 minutes after being submerged in water of 1 meter depth.

Okay then they also have this awesome feature called Download Booster:

Screenshot_2014-05-11-11-36-45

You can now use two connections (your house WIFI and your own 4G connection to download stuffs ) which means it will be up to 3 times as fast and of cos using your 4G plan to download files is very eh.. Money consuming hahaha but you know impatient people like me will do it because to us. Time = money ! AHHAA

And if you still need one more reason to start your journey with the Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE, it’s the GALAXY Life Application: With the GALAXY Life, Samsung users have exclusive access to a community of special discounts and offers to a wide variety of retail merchants! ONLY FOR US LEH. SO SHIOK!!

So, I've come to the end of my Samsung GALAXY S5 LTE review and I really hope that it helps you with the knowledge of the phone! Good luck and hope you enjoyed reading it!

SEEYA :)
