Got the Galaxy S5 on Wednesday. It's everything I hoped it would be and more. :P I was following the rumors of this thing a few months ago, and decided to not get the S4 and wait for the S5. Glad I did. Anyone else have it? Or another phone to compare?

Absolutely! Blackberry Q10, checking in.

Your topic title mentions accessories. Did your phone come with stuff?

Nah. I just didn't think there was a phone topic yet. Well, it came with standard accessories...earbuds, charger (USB 3.0), but that's about it.

How do you like the q10?

Owned an iPhone 4 from new, recently sold it and got a second-hand 4S. Apart from some quirks, it works wonderfully.

I pawned my HTC One the other day, after getting it as a contract upgrade and just not getting on with it. Don't get me wrong, it's a great phone, and definitely one of the best looking Android phones out there, but i just didn't like it. Aparently no-one else likes it either, because i tried selling it for about a month before i pawned it, and i got more money pawning it than i was asking!

Runevillage the family is forever, no matter where we settle down. If absolutely nothing else ever comes of Runevillage in the future, that alone is a pretty damn awesome thought.

Nope, i'm not an overly big fan. I despise touch screens. ('gestures' are stupid and inefficient. Selecting/copying/pasting text is brutal.)
The Q10 still relies heavily on touch. If the browser wasnt so damn fast, and if it wasnt so good with PDFs, I would have gone back to my bold.


I'm impatiently awaiting the release of the Q20.

I had a BlackBerry back in the day with a ball. It was the one just smaller than the Curve. I don't remember the name...I liked it though. I like the touch screen better, though.

Blackberrys are for teenage girls.
HTC One here, I adore HTC's, they're extremely customisable and just great to use.

Teenage girls are interested in productivity?
...does customizable mean improving functionality? or are you saying customizable as in changing appearances?

iPhone master race, clocking in.

Honestly, the main reason why I went with iPhone is because of the strong app and accessory support it gets.

Wednesday I got a free Galaxy Tab 3 to compliment my S5. It's decent. It's slower than my phone, and the resolution isn't as brilliant, but it's still pretty sweet...and free. Which is always good. I think Im going to try and put FL Studio or Caustic on it amd try and produce some songs. Gotta try some demos to see if lag will be an issue.

This.

Plus Apple iPods and iPhones are hands-down the best media player you can buy
