We’ve suspected for some time now that Samsung will be bringing out a slightly updated version of its Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone with a higher resolution screen and slightly updated hardware specs. This so-called Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime with Quad HD display is rumoured to be Samsung’s answer to the LG G3 which is expected to be announced as soon as LG’s event on May 27th, and will include the elusive 2K resolution display that was absent from the Galaxy S5 that launched in early April.
While we had almost believed that Samsung had perhaps sensibly
decided that 1080p displays are as detailed as smartphone screens need
to be, the reason, according to the Korea Herald, is actually that
Samsung found that producing AMOLED
displays with 2560×1440 pixels in large enough quantities to meet the
demand for the global launch for the Galaxy S5 was just too expensive.
To counter this supply issue, Samsung resolved to release a second
device, this Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime, at higher cost and with the 2K
resolution display which would undoubtably sell fewer devices than the
flagship Galaxy S5. Whether the rest of the hardware in this Galxy S5
Prime would be different from the original remains to be seen, but we
may find out sooner than later with June just around the corner.
What do you think about a 2K device like the Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime?
Would you get this over the original Galaxy S5? Let us know your
opinion in the comments.
