    The Galaxy S5 also had atrocious build quality and never really held up to water like advertised. Very shitty phone.

        My main issues with it really are the build quality. Mostly plastic.

          I really don’t understand the issue with this, at all. Plastic saves on costs, and is more durable than glass. I genuinely couldn’t care less as long as the screen itself is glass (which the S5 screen was glass).

            There is good plastic and bad plastic. Samsung has always made shitty phones but the S5 was made of some seriously thin, chrome-covered toy-grade junk. The S6 and beyond stepped up the hardware quality a lot. Phone didn’t creak in your hand etc

          What’s wrong with plastic other than marketing people telling you it isn’t ‘premium?’ If you want to talk about shitty build quality, how about modern phones that are completely encased in fragile glass and must be kept in a case? I rocked my plastic/aluminum Note 4 for 5 years without a case. I still own it, in fact, 8 years later and it still works great because it’s made out of durable materials just like the S5 that I owned before it was.

            I rock my glass iPhone with no case and it’s held up to several drops with no cracks

              Unless you possess the powers of alchemy, it’ll never be stronger than the more durable and premium plastic and metal constructed phones.

                  Using a logical fallacy doesn’t make your opinion any more valid and it doesn’t take an expert to know that glass is more fragile than the plastic and aluminum materials used previously.
