Samsung Galaxy S5 Sports Armband Review-Imagine Samsung has received its money's worth out of your Galaxy S5 however? Think again. Just once you thought the company tapped each one of its flagship's promoting potential, another technology — and another sales opportunity — offers entered the band. Meet the Universe S5 Sport, a new Sprint exclusive that will custom crafts the particular Galaxy S5 Lively, which we met earlier this summer, into a long lasting, everything-proof companion for the fitness-driven lifestyle.

We spent a month the S5 Sport to find out where it differs, or if it differs in any respect, from the Universe S5 Active, and how the item stacks up against the rest of the super-charged Android flagships relaxing on Sprint shelves this summer.

First thing's initial: Despite their commonalities, the Galaxy S5 Sport plus the Galaxy S5 Lively actually serve very different purposes, at least in line with the marketing strategies in it. Think of the particular devices as fraternal baby twins: they share exactly the same DNA and are similar in features, yet each is incredibly much its individual smartphone.

The differences you'll find are mostly tied to the exterior: The S5 Sport may be the slightly sleeker, a lesser amount of rugged sibling, foregoing the particular Active's industrial, tank-like design for just a more toned down appearance. The screws have left, as is the particular "Active button", and as an alternative to having the Active's tough plastic frame, the Sport has a bit of a softer shell that's convenient in the hands. But that's really where the differences end: what's left include the same boxy edges, the same IP76 status for water, dust, sand, and dust resistance, and exactly the same physical buttons. Both feel great in a hand – additional so than the original S5 – thanks to the textured again, and both are made to withstand an lively, if not clumsy, lifestyle.
