Samsung Galaxy S5 May Ditch Its Plastic Shell For An All-metal Body by LordReed(m): 10:30pm On Jun 12, 2013
The Galaxy S4 is brand new, but already rumors are
flying around about the South Korean company’s next
phone, the Galaxy S5. This proves, once again, that the
second you buy a new electronic it’s already out-of-
date. According to Android Geeks, Samsung is going to step up its design. Despite the fact that its Galaxy S models are the best-selling Android devices on the planet – the S4 sold a jaw-dropping 40 million units just one month after hitting the shelves – Samsung may be able to tackle an even bigger corner of the market if
it ups the ante a bit, going after the dedicated lot that seek out smartphones built with top quality materials. Meaning? The next generation of Galaxy phones may very well shed their plastic bodies for more expensive
looking metal body, helping its look reflect the quality of its innards. Despite the preaching we’ve all heard
since we were kids, everyone judges a book by its cover. A move like this could even be the lure that helps
the company reel in more Apple customers. There are problems with a metal body, and the largest is cost. If Samsung makes this move, we could see
a price increase with the S5. Plus, with an all-metal phone comes unibody construction, meaning that
removable battery will be no more. Not to mention, supply of metals could hinder the shipping times on a
phone that has proven to be hugely coveted. We already saw it with the HTC One, and those sales numbers pale in comparison to Samsung’s flagship. Of course, there are no specs to speak of for the next Galaxy, but as always, we’re on the lookout for any
information that makes its way out ahead of time. What do you think? Should Samsung make the move to an all-metal body, or would you prefer it stick to the
tried and true plastic shell it’s been using all along?
