Yeah mate, I think I'll stick with my Galaxy S10 Plus for now, but thanks..

Why this suddenly in recommended

**Samsung S20 released** KZfaq: "hey y'all wanna check out the galaxy s5?!"

The holy KZfaq algorithm brings us all together again!

From a terrible swiping fingerprint reader to the first ultrasonic under screen fingerprint reader in 5 generations. Amazing

When HTC was the benchmark to compare Samsung flagships... Fast forward to 2019, HTC barely exists 😪

It is kind of insane how far we've come already

Marques in 2014: The S5 is pretty snappy... Marques in 2020: 60 Hz isn't fast enough

Hah ... Recommend ... Now

Almost 2019 and this comes in my recommended. That's how you know you are poor.

Anyone else getting this in your recommended suddenly 😂

It’s been 10 years? Wow time flies

Why was this on my recommendations....its 2018

4K on a phone? Holy crap. I don't even have a 4K monitor. lol

I looked this up on my S22 Ultra 😅 Thus was my first Samsung phone and I remember good things about it. I felt that half the features were just a flex on other phones at the time 😅 Crazy how tech moves on but Samsung has definitely kept up. 👍

Anyone else been hit with this up in their recommendations? 😂🙌

After looking at the S6/S7 Note 5/7 design, this phone is extremely ugly.

in regards to the flap. i know it's annoying to a lot of people,but i'm so so glad they put this on there. the reason is that i'm a carpenter. the #1 reason that i can't keep a phone working more than 6 months is 100% caused by dust. this keeps dust out of the port. so i'm happy about it

My first smartphone ever!!! Back when I was 14 😭 I felt so happy ✨❤️

Wow... holding this s20 ultra watching this... I just can't help to think of all the old samsung phones I've owned and how far we've come. Technology is really amazing

The time when htc was one of the best and most popular mobile company

in recommendation. watching on my galaxy s10 plus. fingerprint is fine now

I just bought S23 Ultra, it's almost 2024. KZfaq : The galaxy S5, Samsung's flagship for 2014

The algorithm is back at it again

I broke the flap tho

Watching this on my s10+ because it's in my reccomended list. I feel like I'm from the future lol.

why am i getting this recommended in 2023

KZfaq algorithm: 2014: nah 2015: nope too old 2016: no 2017: lol no 2018: hehe still no 2019: THE TIME HAS COME 2020: IM BACK AGAIN

This came up in my feed and it's was like a whole 4 years ago💀

Everytime the screen is off you can see his face, and it looks like he doesn't enjoy using it. LOL

watching this video on the s23 ultra, 10 years is a long time

"for a high end flagship with MONSTER configs" omg we didnt know nothing back then

anyone watching in 2018 😂?

U had an app called Isis Wallet :O............................................................ Half Life 4 confirmed.

2023 almost done and KZfaq suggests me a 9yrs old video of my favourite content creator 🥰

9 years later and still a great video… P.S you could change the battery and it was water resistant… WHERE DID HUMANITY GO WRONG!!

The HTC One with the camera of the Galaxy S5 would have made THE iPhone killer... just being honest :)

People hate on the s5 for it's exterior looks, but let's be realistic, how many of you do not buy a case for your phone to protect it? It's a silly decision not too after spending a fortune on it. So you wouldn't see the back of the phone anyway. A few of the cases available for the s5 actually make it look really appealing, so if the aesthetics bother you, buy a case and stop being so foolish.

KZfaq really finds it funny recommending old videos 😂, but you get to see the transformation

Finally youtube recomending me stuff i can afford

Perfect I was confused whether to go for s20 or s5 ,this video convinced me to opt for s5

Had this phone up till 2019. Didn't skip a beat. Great phone

Man! Its fun to see old stuff like this and laugh a little on specs

Fun to watch about S5 after S24 Ultra release. That camera was impressive even at that time.

Recommended to anyone else?

Hey Marques i love the way you put everything together in your videos. You put so much time and effort into them to make it as best as possible. you have so many different shots of things that really make your videos different from any other tech reviewer on youtube. I just want to say thank you for making these amazing videos to inspire me to do the same and start my own Tech channel that i will hopefully take off in the near future. Thanks and keep up the good work. Tyler

Ah, Touchwiz & the good ol' whistle notification that totally doesn't get me anxious just thinking about it

It's so weird that KZfaq recommended this to me after 5 years and more weird is the style of video is still the same!!!

You make the best reviews.

2014: KZfaq didn't show this to me 2015: same thing ........ 2020: KZfaq shows it to me now.

2019 Samsung user: I need to charge my phone. 2013 Samsung user: I need to change the battery.

2014: I can't wait get recommend to watch mkbhd's s20+ review in 2020 KZfaq recommendation in 2020:

So S8's come out now and my s5 is in a hardly descriptible state... I feel old

Yeah. Someone recomend this to me in 2018. Thank you so much. Greatly appreciate it.

Love it when KZfaq recommends one of your older videos… The nostalgia😊

I LOVE the grippy back cover. And the phone itself is very light in the hand. It's 2024 and I still want one!

Probably the fairest review I have seen yet of the #S5. Good review.

You can just hear the disappointment in his voice

Back in the day when Samsung was also competing with HTC. A lot has changed since then.

Decided to watch this since i'm upgrading from this to the s10 in the next few days. Despite the few issues ( like the flap which broke off after 3 years.... lasted longer then i thought) i haven't regreted my decision to buy amd use the phone for like 4 to 5 years. Also bloody hell it's durable. Im really clumsy yet the screen only broke last year in november, while yes it might be just cause i was lucky i think its good. So im gonna have alot of fond memories of using this phone and maybe keep it as a backup. So see ya s5 thanks for the memories, lets hope the s10 makes a many good ones

Flagship? We all know the Note is Samsung's flagship phone, this is just the appetizer.

Goofy ahh YT algorithm, somehow this vid shows up on my recommendation list 9 years after the video published 😂

My first smartphone ❤❤❤ Still using it as a backup.. loving it, especially the camera 😊

For my 15th birthday watched this video and worked for summer to buy me this phone and was the first video I watched of MKBHD, happy 10th anniversary to me to finding this channel

Wow! Time has flew by so quickly! Watching this on my s10+

CLASSIC MKBHD ✨

I'm watching it in 2023 and nothing changed. I still hate the S5 😊

Why does KZfaq keep on recommending me old MKBHD videos?! This is the fourth one from him I've gotten.

I really love the music intro and at the end :)

I was just recommended this by YT 🙌🏾

Blue looks super cool 😍 Can't wait for it to come on sale

Man it's so hilarious watching it almost 6 years later...

FUCK YEAH. NEW MKBHD VIDEO. !!!

This is the best review I found. My S4 is bugging awfully today so I'm getting the s5. I heard it's the second best phone next to the s7 so I'm excited!

How the hell this is in my recommendations after so many years?

I thought this was a 1st April prank! But it was just KZfaq recommending it at the right time 😂

There is lag on all Galaxy/Note devices in the Gallery. It's because they like to integrate picasa and any other cloud service that stores your photos into it. This causes it the huge lag when those services are trying to pull your saved photos. After you get rid of those it's 100x better.

Hey Marques! Any chance of you reviewing any of the new low cost 4k monitors such as U28D590 or PB287Q? Or even UM95?

9 years later phones have come so far

I still use my S5 in 2023 as an airplane-mode device. Not bad, Samsung! Stayin' alive.

My S5 still works amazing :)

KZfaq is recommending S5 in December 2023 Yeah a pretty decent competition to S24

It's good to know that I still have the latest Samsung phone 🤙🏻 Thanks KZfaq for reminding me with these recommendations.

I used to have this phone. Used it for 3 years. Good memories of rooting and using loads of custom roms. The phone is trash stock but it was so good when you customised it.

Nice review, by the way you CAN turn off the My Magazine shortcut on the home screen

this guy seems like he is covering all the negatives for this phone

Watching it on my s10 i love it.... how far have we have come....

Hmm...sudden recommendation, that reminds me, this is my favorite MKBHD intro ever.

7:37 yo how the fuck is this on a 6 year old phone?

Was this in anyone else's recommended?

Watching this video on my Note 9 in 2019... we've come a long way man!

This got recomended to me while Im on youtube with my s10 plus and the s20 has just come out, awesome youtube awesome..

I just can't stand touchwiz ... Glad I went with the m8. The camera isn't awful. It's definitely not 16mp though. Still a great phone and I might not go back to the Galaxy S series at the rate they're going.

Still have this phone, it does it's job doesn't lag for me. The Display quality is still great even comparing to the SmartPhone's of 2016. Battery gets 3 hours screen on time. Only thing is 16gb of internal storage is too low since you cannot move some apps on to SD card.

Watching on Galaxy S5 Active this still smooth.

Why is this being recommended to me almost 7 years later? 😳

Watching on S5 :)

*twidles thumbs waiting for 2160p*

So excited for this phone

Really recommending this now!!!!!!
