My thoughts:

Audio performance during a concert, however, is much worse than I expected. I'm coming from an iPhone 4s to the S5. It's a world of difference and I'm glad I made the change, but the iPhone just managed to automagically capture and process great sound at any level. The S5 sounds like 10 wool blankets over the mic. No highs. Distorted lows. C'mon, Samsung can't copy that? ;) (I kid, I kid...)

The phone speaker itself sucks, but what about on headphones?
 
I haven't even tried the headphones, to be honest. But, the apple earbuds were terrible and I have no great expectations for an accessory that comes with a phone. I have a pair of Grado 80's for the odd moment I actually want to use headphones, Sony (forget which model) for DJ work.. I don't walk around listing to music with my phone.

My thoughts:
Video performance in low light and concert lighting isn't great, but when I can bring in something bulkier than my phone, I use something better. It's a phone. I'm not shooting footage for a documentary to be released on blu-ray or some such thing.

I never owned S5. So, I am not comparing with it. Above posted video/audio looks ok to me.There is some distortion. May be there is some setting related to gain. Audio is louder than what phone can hear from your sitting location. I actually do not expect much from phone cameras in low light.

Just a quick auto shoot of the Fire Department. I have yet to master the camera. The photo is nowhere near as good as everyones here. The bottom pic is at full zoom.

Hi all, new to the site and looking for some advice. I am having some real trouble with the camera app. It takes for ever to actually shoot a picture once you have pressed the "shoot" button. Literally a 3-4 second delay. I have kind of got this to speed up by didabling the image stabalization but it is still not perfect. Also my indoor shots have a lot of noise or fuzziness and lack of clarity in the photos. Am I doing something wrong? Also for some odd reason I b ant view any photos once it take them. I see the thumbnail in the galler app but when I click it the screen is grey or black or shows some wierd icon. It then started to affect the thumbnails. I have taken a screenshot but am unsure of how to upload it. Just a bit of background. I am a long time duel user, aways carried both android and ios devices. It should also be noted I never had these issues with my note 2 -- thanks in advance for any advice.
