The model with the Full HD screen will be the standard variant (reportedly water- and dust-proof), and it will be the one that Samsung will announce at its Unpacked event next Monday at Mobile World Congress. While this is just a rumor, it does gel with the many leaks that have suggested that the North American models of the Galaxy S5 will all come with a 1080p display – some thought it would be a case of the US getting a lesser model, but if the report is accurate, it will simply be a matter of Samsung waiting it out a few months before unleashing a Galaxy S5 variant with a much sharper display than we've seen on smartphones before.
Which, by the way, matches yet another rumor about Samsung pricing the Galaxy S5 lower than previous iterations in the popular Galaxy S series – having a QHD display would have made that a rather difficult task, but with the initial model not sporting an ultra-sharp display, it's a rumor that suddenly doesn't feel very far-fetched.
Abhijeet's writing career started with guides for custom firmware for Samsung devices (including the original Galaxy S), and he moved to SamMobile in mid-2013 and worked up the ranks to Editor-in-chief. In addition to phones and mobile devices, his interests include gaming on both PC and console, PC hardware, and spending countless hours on YouTube watching videos on tech, movies, games, politics, and internet dramas.
