The Samsung Galaxy S5 is already the subject of some attention, even though its release is still many months away. The Galaxy S4 is undoubtedly a great smartphone, but Samsung has faced some criticism over its rather bland design. Today we want to show you a Samsung Galaxy S5 envisioned with a unique design.
Time and time again just about the only criticism leveled at the Samsung Galaxy S3 and also the S4 was it’s rather non-premium plastic build. We know that many readers would like to see the next Galaxy S flagship step up to something rather more stylish, and that’s where concept designs come in useful.
Occasionally we spot concept visions for future devices that give an interesting look at what could be offered. They often bring something new to the table and this Galaxy S5 concept is one such example.
It has been known for some time that Samsung is working on flexible screens, and folding displays are something that may well appear on flagship Samsung devices in the future. Some time ago we showed a concept Galaxy S5 design featuring a foldable display, and the new concept that you can see here also comes from Jermaine at Mobileaks.
The previous concept was foldable on the horizontal, but this new idea folds along the vertical instead, giving a really distinctive look. Another stand out aspect is an extra LCD screen on the reverse that disappears when the handset is closed. The vertical screen can be used for viewing notifications and also acts as a music player interface.
As you can see from the images here this concept Samsung Galaxy S5 has an edge-to-edge display and the home button is positioned slightly to one side at the top to allow for the vertical fold. This is also an extremely slim design that would be likely to appeal to plenty of customers.
Although this concept Samsung Galaxy S5 may be just a little too much of a departure for Samsung, we’ve been longing to see something so sweepingly different and this would certainly fit the bill. However, what we’d really like to know is how readers feel about this design.
