"Rather surprised AAPL isn't taking more of a hit today. As this info is more widely disseminated and people discuss, it could cause a sharp drop. We'll see. For those who think the Samsung releases aren't going to do much when they hit the market (perhaps because pricing will be too high), any AAPL pullback would be a great chance to buy"

I would be very surprised if Samsung prices the S5 any lower than the S4. What's the incentive? The S series has sold well (nearly 100m or so in 2013), and you seem to think that the S5 is improved enough to outsell S4, so I think they will milk the high margin business while they can. They have the lower tiers well covered with other devices in their portfolio as the market demands.

On the other hand, I'm with Slacker-- the S5 is fine, but not 5S killer by any means. I would have liked to see Apple accelerate their iPhone(s) launches this year, but I don't think they will feel pressured to do so by a lackluster Galaxy S update.
