Samsung recently launched a new LTE variant of its flagship smartphone in Singapore. Known as the Galaxy S5 4G+, it’s available exclusively through the country’s Singtel cell carrier in half a dozen different service plans. While it may look like an ordinary Galaxy S5, the Galaxy S5 4G+ has some subtle differences that set it apart from the original handset. So before you go scooping up this latest variant, you should take a minute to read the following post. One of the most notable differences between the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the Galaxy S5 4G+ is the processor. Samsung used a high-end quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor in the 4G+ model — the same used in the Korean model.

Samsung announced earlier this month, however, that it was releasing it internationally, starting with the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. Once released in AUE and Qatar, Samsung will push the variant in Poland, before eventually bringing it to the U.S. So, how much will the Galaxy S5 Duos LTE sell for in the U.S. According to IB Times, Welectronics plans to sell the device for $899 — a steep increase from the device’s original price tag of $850. Some consumers already complain that the launch-edition Galaxy S5 is too expensive, so jacking the price could backfire on Samsung. To determine whether or not the Galaxy S5 Duos LTE is worth the cost,…
