No one likes to see a brand new smartphone being smashed to pieces unnecessarily, so this torture test video featuring a Galaxy S5 that fights back is the most enjoyable one you’ll find on YouTube.

The HTC One (M8) comes with quite a few software gimmicks and novelties including Motion launch gestures. These gestures allow users to directly launch the camera or even wake it up by simply double tapping on the screen even when the device is sleeping, However, unlike the LG G2, the M8 does not allow users to put it to sleep by double tapping on the screen, which means they have to press the awkwardly located power button on the top.

American carrier U.S. Cellular has just announced the availability of 4G LTE services in a few new states while expanding existing coverage in some regions. The carrier expects to add 1,200 4G LTE towers which will connect over 93% of its users with blazing fast LTE networks by the end of the year.

Galaxy-S5-waterproof

And just in case you were skeptical of Samsung’s claims, check out the video below, which puts the Galaxy S5’s waterproof form factor to the test in a swimming pool — and in a washing machine.
