Samsung Galaxy S5 Video Comparison

S5 ArtyThe Samsung Galaxy S5 has been out for a little while now and has met with some of the more mixed feedback we have seen for a flagship smartphone. There is always a battle of the camera and in a series of videos we hope to help you make your own mind up on which device has the best video quality for your needs.

Test video quality isn’t an easy thing, there are many factors to deal with, just as still shots. I find the best test is a dashboard mount as over a few minutes the camera will have to pull focus multiple times, deal with an extreme variety of light conditions and constant movement, not to mention shakes. In addition the microphone’s performance will also be put to the test with the constant background noise, whilst balancing vocal input.

The following are the Samsung Galaxy S5’s attempt to deal with a quick journey through my home town in my 3.0 litre pick-up truck on the four different settings available.

Spigen SGP Tough Armor Case for iPhone 5S / 5 Unboxing

spigen-sgp-tough-armor-case-for-iphone-5s-5-metal-slate-p41326-300Mobilefun.co.uk have very kindly provided us with a Spigen SGP Tough Armor Case for iPhone 5S and 5. This is a higher end case to toughen your iPhone and protect it against the hardest of knocks. 

Combination of TPU and Polycarbonate for dual protection from drops and scratches

The Tough Armor case for iPhone 5S / 5 is a double layered TPU and a polycarbonate hard case to provide the best protection in a form-fitted design. The web patterned TPU case features improved shock absorption on the top, bottom, and corners to provide extreme protection to your iPhone 5S / 5 from drops and scratches.

Advanced Shock Absorption Technology

The Spigen Tough Armor case features state of the art shock absorption technology, with Air Cushion Technology on all 4 corners to effectively protect the device from drops.

Seamless Style

The case fits precisely onto the iPhone 5S / 5 for a natural and sleek look, and the speaker opening is specifically designed to fully utilize the speaker without reducing sound quality.

Easily access all ports, controls & connectors

The case also features cutouts for the ports and features of the iPhone 5S / 5 such as the dock connector and camera. It has raised areas for the volume and home keys to make them easy to press whilst encased.

 

What is it that makes Spigen SGP cases one of the best choices on the market? 

 

Air cushion technologies

Sometimes, the smallest of innovations and features can make the biggest difference.  Spigen SGP cases, including this product listing, feature air cushion technologies in each of the corners, which absorbs and disperses the force of a drop through the TPU material, which will provide your handset with the utmost protection.

Box design versus iPhone design

With Spigen SGP cases, there is no need to get protection for your handset through a bulky case.  Spigen SGP Tough Armour cases pride themselves on being inspired by iPhone, featuring tapered edges, complimenting colours and a paralleled design, to minimise bulky and boxy casing.

Protection and air circulation

Many cases on the market trap and absorb heat with their foam-like interior, which can cause the device in question to overheat and damage.  The Spigen SGP Tough Armor features a spider web inspired TPU, which provides a better drop protection and a better air circulation to help to keep the device cool.

Optimal lift combined with a “lay on the table” capability

With the Spigen SGP Tough Armor case, you can lay your phone on the table screen down without worry.  The TPU features a tapered lip that raises the iPhone a comfortable 1.5mm off from the surface.  this leaves the screen safe and protected while optimizing comfort in hand and during use.

You can pick one up from mobilefun.co.uk.
