Design – Plastic not so fantastic Samsung has come under great pressure to copy the metal body of the HTC One, but it has stuck to its guns with the plastic chassis of the Galaxy S5. It does feel different to the S4. The S5 has a more textured and dimpled finish which makes it easier to hold than both its predecessor and the slippery M8, though it lacks the grip of the rubber finish on the black edition of the LG Nexus 5 (the white edition is bizarrely slippery).
