Keep your very own fitness coach in your pocket with the Samsung Galaxy S5 on Three.


Samsung’s flagship device will be available for an upfront cost of £69 and a choice of four different 24 month price plans. These start at £38 a month with for 600 minutes and 2GB of data, up to £44 a month for unlimited minutes and all-you-can-eat data.

The Samsung Galaxy S5’s enhanced S Health offering is just like putting a real-time fitness coach in your pocket. With a host of new tools to help people stay fit, including an in-built pedometer, heart rate monitor and a fantastic range of apps available through Google Play such as Runkeeper, it’s never been easier to conquer personal fitness goals. Partnered with Samsung’s Gear 2 Neo and Gear Fit accessories, available on Three at £199 each, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is the perfect exercise buddy.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is also equipped with an incredible 16MP camera, featuring a super-fast auto-focus of up to just 0.3 seconds, so it’s perfect for capturing finish line moments in outstanding clarity.

Other aids such as the camera’s new selective focus feature allows budding photographers to focus on a specific area of an object while simultaneously blurring out the background, providing even more control over pictures.

Sylvia Chind, head of devices at Three, said: “Whether you’re a fitness fanatic, keen photographer, or you just enjoy streaming music, the Samsung Galaxy S5 has something for everyone.

“Partnered with Three’s fast 4G network available at no extra cost, additional features such as the Galaxy S5’s download booster that uses both Wi-Fi and 4G to increase data speed, means you are no longer confined to your desktop when downloading large files. Altogether making this Samsung smartphone the most feature-rich customer experience yet.”

The Samsung Galaxy S5 also features an innovative finger scanner, providing a secure, screen locking experience and you can even use your fingerprint to encrypt sensitive files or to buy things online via PayPal. In addition, the device also features Ultra Power Saving Mode which turns the display to black and white, and closes all unnecessary features to minimise the battery consumption when you’re out and about with no access to a charger.
