ATandT has added a new resilient feature of shock-resistance in the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active.
The Galaxy S5 which has already been on sale and was incorporated with the feature of 'waterproof, has been added with a new element of shock resistance by ATandT, while keeping the same specifications.
According to The Verge, there is an extra 'convenience key' on the side of the phone that gives the user easy access to the entire phone's apps that are related to outdoor activity.
The new ATandT phone will be available in a variety of colours such as 'titanium grey' and 'ruby red' and is now on sale for 199.99 dollars. It also comes with a two-year contract or all the way through ATandT's Next installment plans.
Reports suggest that it's questionable whether there is as much of a need for this phone as its predecessor, the Galaxy S4 Active, since the regular Galaxy S5 already offers more protection against the elements than most devices on the market.
