Nice, since that I'm currently in Korea, I might check it out on the 19th (which is tomorrow). Though I won't be buying one, Looks like it's still a plastic build.

I knew it would be Korea exclusive...called it

I think the real question is whether it will remain so or whether it will find its way to the West. I'm betting the latter which is a real slap in the face to all of us. 😠

I'm not surprised. It's their home... So giving their people an exclusive sounds right.

It has an aluminum backing. And Samsung is unsure if it will come to the U.S. or not

No it does not have aluminum backing for the LTE-A variant of the S5 (which was supposed to be the S5 Prime), it has a plastic backing.

At this point, it's only exclusive to South Korea, who knows when if it will come out in the Europe, as I'm sure that even the S4 LTE-A came to Europe just months after the S4 LTE-A was released in Korea. Who knows if it will ever reach U.S and I doubt it will.
