The Samsung Galaxy S5 has been rumored to be announced in the near future. In fact last we heard, the rumors claim that it might even be announced ahead of MWC which we guess is a good move as Samsung will be able to bask in the spotlight for a couple of days before the flood of MWC related news hits the internet. In any case while the jury is still out on when the phone will be announced and launched, a certain Samsung SM-G900H has been spotted and certified in Indonesia, which many are speculating to be the Samsung Galaxy S5.

This is because other possible Galaxy S5 variants have made their way to other parts of the world, such as AT&T’s version which is the SM-G900A, the SM-G900F, and the SM-G900S, suggesting that these are pretty much all the same phones but destined for different markets and/or carriers. If this truly is the case, it looks like Samsung is wasting no time in getting the handset ready for launch in multiple markets, possibly at the same time. The Galaxy S5 is probably one of the most highly anticipated handsets of 2014, at least for the early part of the year since the iPhone 6 and Galaxy Note 4 announcements usually take place in the second half of the year. Will Samsung be able to outdo themselves this year? We guess we will just have to wait and find out, so be sure to check back with us at a later date to see if there are more details to be had!

Samsung won’t surprise anyone by releasing multiple variants of its upcoming flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5. Perhaps it may surprise us by releasing two different versions of said flagship, “Prime” and “Standard” to be precise. This according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities, who you might recall from a never ending list of Apple related rumors. Kuo makes some predictions for Galaxy S5 this time around, and while he often hits the spot when its related to Apple, it remains to be seen just how credible his intel on Samsung’s future plans is.

There has been quite a lot of speculation surrounding the possible release date of the Samsung Galaxy S5, and so far, nothing concrete has been mentioned. Of course, this means that rumors will have a field day, and it has certainly shown in news reports that have come up so far. Samsung has yet to reveal anything official about the Samsung Galaxy S5 to date – will it be unveiled before Mobile World Congress kicks off, or will it happen in a separate Samsung Unpacked after the event in Barcelona? Eldar Murtazin, the Russian blogger who has had his fair share of hits in the past when it came to rumors, has revealed possible MWC plans from Samsung, where a mid-March event could see the new flagship smartphone’s release.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is probably the most anticipated Android smartphone of 2014, and probably one of the more anticipated smartphones for the year, Apple’s iPhone included, which is why we can’t say we’re too surprised that there are plenty of leaks and rumors regarding the handset at the moment. So when can we expect the Samsung Galaxy S5 to be announced? Well according to a tweet by Eldar Murtazin, the famed leaker who has in the past been relatively spot on with his information, it seems that come 23rd of February we will be hearing about the handset from Samsung at a pre-MWC event.

According to Murtazin, “Samsung Galaxy S5 launch – 18.00. Barcelona. 23 February. Price the same. Launch – end of April. Specs – u know them new touchwiz ” We guess in a way the rumors are true that the phone will not be announced at MWC since a pre-MWC announcement will not count. However this information also seems to contradict earlier rumors which pegged the handset’s release for mid-March in London. Either way there seems to be a fair amount of rumors and most of them seems to be contradicting one another, so take it with a grain of salt for now, but with the 23rd of February coming sooner than mid-March, we guess we’ll keep an eye on that date to see what Samsung might have to announce then.

It seems that Samsung cannot wait to roll out the successor to the Galaxy S4, which would be the Galaxy S5, since the former did not do as well as Samsung expected. Well, here we are with word on the street that the Samsung Galaxy S5 would arrive with a biometric sensor, although it would not feature iris recognition technology since the latter has yet to be developed to a stage where it can work reliably. Does this bit of rumor concerning the Samsung Galaxy S5’s lack of an iris recognition sensor be a decision breaker for you? Or do you think that smartphones should not get too complex in this matter?
