Along the lines of if you want a 32gb, you have to wait a bit.

I feel like blue is going to be best buy exclusive. IMO it would make a lot of sense.

Or you can pre-order a black one now and buy a blue replacement back cover later.

I come almost buying the HTC M8 the other day on Swappa.com and then read an article I found on a Sony which per the article will be out on VZW and it will have a much better camera. I know they have some really nice cameras so decided to wait and see if that happens. I pretty much know what the camera on the S5 will be, probably close to what the S4 has now. Since I have not seen a S5 - 32 gb for sale yet like you say it will be a wait for that but the N4 will be due out later and it will more than likely be 32 gb as the N3 was?

I tried the M8 and don't really have anything bad to say about the device. Yes, The camera could be better and this was the first time I've used a HTC (and Sense) device. Android is Android and took only a little while to get used to Sense. They toot their horn about Blinkfeed but it's not anything I'd use. The build quality was spot on and it felt good in the hand although it is just as heavy as my wife Note 3. The speakers were absolutely phenomenal and really enjoyed the sound - and not having to cup the back. That said, I've decided to go with the S5 and I guess I am partial to Samsung - I've used them since the S2. They have some features such as the heartbeat thing I won't use but I think it's the best choice for now. I so wish the M8 speakers were incorporated onto the S5.....I'd be a happy camper. Maybe they'll be there on the S6. And for what it's worth, I have a S4 now and from what I've read, the display difference is noticeable with the S5. A small bump in camera resolution but some extra camera features won't hurt .

I do think the 32gb versions will be available after a few weeks of launch. But with the SD card slot up to 128gb, the 16gb should be okay for me. I still think the minimum internal storage should be 32gb, but it is what it is.
