After providing us with high-res snaps and benchmark test results of the rumored Galaxy Note 3 Neo, SamMobile is at again; this time they’ve shed more light on some of the inner workings of Samsung’s upcoming flagship handset.

For starters, the site claims that Galaxy S5 will boast an AMOLED display with Quad-HD (2,560×1,440) resolution. The screen size is yet to be confirmed, but the recent rumors point to a panel which measures 5.25 inches.

Next up is the engine. According to the site’s insider, GS5 will be offered in two models; one that runs on an Exynos 6 processor (supposedly the non-LTE variant) and another one that’s powered by a Snapdragon 805 SoC with Adreno 420 GPU. Details about the RAM and Storage capacities weren’t provided in the leak, but the GS5 is suspected to have 3-4GB of RAM and 16GB internal storage.

The Galaxy S5 is expected to run on Android KitKat right off the bat and will have a 16MP camera on the back to boot. Surprisingly, Samsung will allegedly offer their upcoming hero device in plastic and metal construction.

In addition to the “confirmed” specs, SamMobile’s informer also says that the South Korean firm will launch Galaxy S5 Mini, as well as a camera-centric variant which will be called Galaxy S5 Zoom.

Rockafella · 12 years ago

Wow! so much hate for the writer and the article. I don’t see anything wrong with it jezuz krayst tabloids are doing the same thing. You guys shouldn’t be surprised anymore. This $h!+ cray!

Jomar · 12 years ago

Wala nang kwenta itong website na eto, its time to boycott this site. Goodbye yuga and your shiny bald head. Please upgrade your budget so you can hire more competent writers.

awts · 12 years ago

parang naka motorcycle lang ang article na to ah!

hamish · 12 years ago

Haters gonna hate. Articles such as this one is bringing in more page views and allows Yuga to literally rake in millions every month.

i think they intentionally mislead the title to grab more clicks not just here but also abroad. buhay nga naman. how can you say na official specs nga yung leak, you can argue this later kung tumama pero hindi pa rins amsung ang mismong nagsabi nito. ito ay unverified leak at rumors lamang po.

hmmmm · 12 years ago

bakit ganun? sabi “Samsung Galaxy S5 official specs revealed.” tapos sabi..

“The screen size is yet to be confirmed, but the recent rumors point to a panel which measures 5.25 inches.”

“Storage capacities weren’t provided in the leak, but the GS5 is suspected to have 3-4GB of RAM”

“In addition to the “confirmed” specs, SamMobile’s informer also says that the South Korean firm will launch Galaxy S5 Mini…”

make up your mind….

Disappointing article. This is the type of lack of credibility that loses reader base. For starters, the heading is grossly misleading. Secondly, this is such an amateurishly written article that even i could have put together in 5 minutes. Third, this type of article is a dime a dozen on the internet. I read yugatech for the relevant PHILIPPINE tech news!

Oh well. This is the last page view you’re gonna get from me. Your site is coming off my flipboard. ciao…

very misleading, stupid and deceitfulthings people do just to get site visits

roiji · 12 years ago

Wow! Kung maka “official” parang galing sa mismo sa Samsung Mobile.

As an avid reader and subscriber. And sharer/retweeted:
Misleading title to generate hits and page views.
I’m not impressed :(

begotten son · 12 years ago

“Official” and “Rumors” are too contradicting words, Mr. Author.

Time to have this site blocked on my home network. Just wasted 60 seconds of my life by reading this piss-poor and poorly written articles.

@Yuga
Are you really the owner and editor of this site? It seems like you’re not doing your responsibility as the owner of this once glorious site. Better check the articles of your “contributors” first before publishing it here.

iamtus · 12 years ago

i thought it’s the official specs, what an epic title!

dafeels · 12 years ago

TROLL LEVEL: YUGATECH

Seriously, YugaTech has turned into a trolling site like 4chan thanks to these stupid writers who always tend to put contradicting words into the “articles” they “contribute”.

Time to boycott this site I guess.

Jhai · 12 years ago

Haist… anu ba yan… disappointment lang pala.. gusto lang ata makakuha ng views para malaki kita kaya sa title specs official revealed tas ganito mababaso ko.

Bryan · 12 years ago

Will be unfollowing this blog after this misleading article. You are one of the reasons why I hate the entire Filipino race – feeding on gossip and leading masses to false information. Piss off.

wew · 12 years ago

maraming nadismaya sa article na to(kasama nako dun) dahil misleading ung title,siningit lng nila ung “official” para siguro makakuha ng maraming page views pero sana wag mo naman nilalahat kaming mga Pilipino.Hindi naman lahat kami eh ganyan.

abuzalzal · 12 years ago

@wew

Don’t you understand the meaning of ”satire”?

i really cringe @ your toddler-level comments, really….tumahimik ka na lang kasi above 50 IQ yung mga taong nire-reply-an mo

patty · 12 years ago

Well this was a misleading article. Will be unsubscribing from Yugatech now. Complete waste of time.

site1 · 12 years ago

Anyare Abe? Official daw pero SamMobile galing. I’m starting to think misleading your audience is being done deliberately.

Benchmark · 12 years ago

By the way, i like the rendering of the alleged S5…and some other tech site said, may plastic version and aluminum version daw ito ala iphone 5s / 5c.

Probably nga ganyan siguro ang magiging battery cover nya, na parang textured or kung di naman like the new note 3 na parang leather design.

Just funny lang, kasi they cover it with casing so parang useless lang din yung leather design nya. Ayway yun ang choice ng mga tao eh…sino ba ako to stop them…its a free world. :-) peace and more power yugatech!

Benchmark · 12 years ago

Hmmm it just gives the excitement lang about the “official” word, but then again, i cannot blame anyone of you nor the writer of the article…still this article is under their RUMORS tab if you check it in their home page.

EarlZ · 12 years ago

A new low for Yugatech, I guess they are falling on hard times. Very disappointing and disgusting.

Richard · 12 years ago

Greedy for some traffic huh? Nice Try Yugatech, that’s pretty lame of you guys stating the “Official” in the Article Title when it’s not even confirmed yet, your readers deserve better than that.

DanielX · 12 years ago

I agree that the title is very misleading. Para-paraan para magkaron ng maraming hits. And yea, this site has really gone downhill, but still better than crappy TECHPINAS. It’s all shameless paid advertising disguised as tech news and reviews in that site! lol

abuzalzal · 12 years ago

Payola journalism happens everywhere dude, pag popular na ang isang blog or site, dun na gumagapang ang mga galamay…. I mean, who doesn’t want money these days?

Randy · 12 years ago

When I saw the tittle I thought yugatech struck a gold with the information, but after reading it….I was more annoyed that even going to this site.

Seriously the tittle is MISLEADING!

Analog · 12 years ago

misleading article by Yugatech. -.-

abuzalzal · 12 years ago

sobrang bobo ng author may wrinkles pa ba ang brain mo?

paasa · 12 years ago

kesa mahatulan ang S5 ang nahatulan tuloy ang author, btw i really want to see if this phone really have what it takes to beat the said best smartphone the LG G2!

vincepags · 12 years ago

pakitanggal po itong blogger na ito, yung matinong writer lang po ang itira nyo pleeeaassseeee

mrofficial · 12 years ago

ahahaha kakatawa ung author feeling henyo ehh mali mali naman info …. official agad? ahahaha patawa ka authorotot…. naunahan mo pang mag release ng official specs ang mga kilalang blogs sites….

nerdtron · 12 years ago

ayoko ko na sana magcomment pero napacomment nga ako sa disappointment. hilig ko magbasa dito pero parang di ko na ata isasali sa news feed ko tong yugatech.
etong mga article na “official specs” tapos “suspected” “allegedly”, medyo na disappoint talaga ako. feeling ko pampadami lang ng views ang pagpunta ko dito. sayang naman

abdulJakulSalsalani · 12 years ago

this site is Fuc*ed up, it used to be a good site

Paul · 12 years ago

Sino dito ang wala namang masyadong pakialam sa article pero nagbabasa pa rin para sa abuzalzal reaction of the day?

Alam niyo na, parang iyung judge sa Yakitate…

Naman · 12 years ago

Actually some these specs were brought up by Samsung executives and hindi galing sa mga factory workers lang nila. About it being official, that I don’t know especially if it came from top management. Not sure kung gusto lang magpasikat nito pero sila sila rin nagcause ng gulo na to.

abuzalzal · 12 years ago

Ano ‘to? ! Specs chismax na naman?
Wow, tas sasabihing “official”?

Paksyet. …bait article!

exodus · 12 years ago

Sir, alin po ang ‘official specs’ sa article nyo eh puro rumors and claims lang naman po ung sinulat nyo? Sana wag magalit ung readers nyo kasi nagtatanong lang po ako. Salamat po.

abuzalzal · 12 years ago

Technically (the grammar and all) , walang mali sa article title, kasi hindi naman SAMSUNG ang nag-reveal ng ”official” specs eh, kundi isang obrero sa planta….

Pero yung intent yung kaduda-duda. Mala-freking yung dating eh tsk tsk tsk

Desperately fishing for hits?! wtf

F na F · 12 years ago

So feeling mo sikat ka nyan? Weak!

jejefrek · 12 years ago

Waiting for wew knight in shining armor’s comment. Ang kontrabida/mr-know-it-all ng yugatech. Hahahahaha.

Oh ayan pinansin na kita ha ;)

wew · 12 years ago

@jejefrek thanks but no thanks…d ko kailangan ng atensyon galing sau cnu ka ba sa tingin mo hahaha

Doc Martens · 12 years ago

Hanep. Napaka deceiving naman ng title! Official specs revealed, pero the author used words such as “expected” and “alleged”? Haaaay.

wew · 12 years ago

this is what blogging ala ‘sensationalized’ journalism has gone down to in the fckng internets.. most especially with these “local tech bloggers”

Doc Martens · 12 years ago

Super disappointing lang. Clearly, the author wanted to cause stir by adding the word “official” sa title, and i guess Abe (sorry for this, sir Abe) is just too desperate for attention, views and comments to publish this crap.

Is this what blogging and tech journalism in the Philippines is now? Kung sabagay, sparking controversies on articles backed up by loads of comments from readers (disappointed ones) means more “views” for the ads they have here on the site. “Hello advertisers, hello money!”

Smokescreen · 12 years ago

Wow! I would say the writer nailed it with his rendition of the S5’s design!

SpiderWak · 12 years ago

yeah but actual Samsung design is disappointing.

wew · 12 years ago

so talagang sinadya nyo(at inaamin nyo) talaga na lagyan ng word na “official” ung title ng article kahit hiinid naman talaga official?

shocks · 12 years ago

How pathetic?!

ugh · 12 years ago

This is the worst article I’ve read so far in this site.
The title is misleading.
It can only be considered as OFFICIAL if it came from Samsung.
In this case, this can be considered a LEAK specification/s.
