The Latest Samsung Galaxy S5 Leaks & Rumours

The much anticipated Samsung Galaxy S5 is set to be unveiled next week at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and is likely to be released shortly afterwards. Rumours as to the S5s expected features and specifications have been flying around for months, but with now just a week to go, even more rumours and leaks are appearing in the spotlight.  

In a recent leak, a Dutch site dedicated to Samsung’s upcoming flagship phone reveals a screenshot alleged to be from the settings of the S5, boasting a screen resolution of 1440x2560 pixels. In a screen measuring 5.2 inches, that's an incredibly detailed 560 pixels per inch!

Another leak, courtesy of Sammobile, alleges that the S5 is set to come equipped with a fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone. According to Sammobile, people familiar with the upcoming device said the fingerprint sensor works with a vertical swipe of the pad of the finger while keeping the finger flat and swiping at medium speed. In addition to using the fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone, users should also be able to register seven other fingerprints and assign them to various tasks or app shortcuts. Alternative security methods, such as a PIN code, are also alleged to be available on the new device.

One of the most intriguing and recent rumours however, has come from the O2 Germany website, which has put up a webpage that alludes to the release of the Samsung Galaxy S5, and it looks like the device, much like Sony's Xperia Z1 smartphone, may be waterproof! The page, which was found by NDTV Gadgets and is in German, has the headline "High 5 anticipation", and offers users to sign up for more news about the next Samsung flagship device.

Further Samsung Galaxy S5 features tipped for inclusion see a 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor expected to line up alongside Google’s latest Android 4.4 KitKat OS, 3GB of RAM and a reworked form factor and TouchWiz interface and a 16MP sensor camera.
