Samsung's Denial on Premium Galaxy S5

A new Samsung device series line was also rumoured before the official launch of Galaxy S5 at Mobile World Congress 2014. This premium device line is called Galaxy F, featuring higher quality smartphones than flagship models however; Samsung denies that there is no Galaxy F line or Galaxy S5 Prime.

Samsung's chief executive office for mobile division J.K. Shin, told Korean media that there will be no other version of Galaxy S5 that is more premium than it is. Shin told the press that nothing else exists as premium as Galaxy S5.

However, based on the historical trend of Samsung Mobile on their flagship device per year, a Galaxy Note flagship always supersedes a Galaxy S flagship.

Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 are not equal in terms of features and specs that would probably happen again in 2014 with Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Note 4. Check the differences below:

Regardless of Samsung's denial of Galaxy S5 Prime aka Galaxy F line, we are still going to see Galaxy S5 Zoom and the upcoming Galaxy Note 4 which probably better than Galaxy S5.
