And versus the Apple iPhone 6, Samsung offers a whole lot more.

If you thought the S4 was good enough, consumers and enterprise IT departments will want to upgrade to the GS5 right away. First of all, it's waterproof. Spills, drops onto a sandy beach or into a toilet are all certain death scenarios for most electronic devices, but not for the GS5. And, remarkably, there's very little that looks different about this device. The mics and speakers are exposed, even the headphone jack looks the same. But inside there are big differences. And device settings are easier to find, thanks to a new search function that includes settings, plus a reorganized settings panel that replaces the tabbed interface with simplified list or icon views.

There's much more to see and to say about Samsung's latest -- and we believe, greatest -- smartphone yet.
