I'm up for a new phone next week. Been using a Samsung phone but not a Galaxy. I'm considering getting the new S5 or the iphone 5. Any thoughts on which one is better?

I've never had an iphone but my wife and oldest son have one. They are trying to push me that way. I had a Samsung Fascinate which I loved but "upgraded" to a Samsung Stellar which is a piece of crap. I'm actually taking my youngest son's upgrade and transferring it to my line so I can get something new. i was going to get the S4 until I saw the new S5 is coming out this week.
 
My wife an I do no contract cell service.This makes the cost of t buying the phone very high.I recently went with the Galaxy S3 with a Lifeproof case and paid 250$+55$ case..Im gonna guess the S5 would cost over 500$ when its finally available through my carrier.

After looking around tonight, think I am going to buy an S4 and go to at&t prepaid route. No deals out there beside family plans. I am paying $105 a month thru sprint. So if anyone knows of anyone getting rid of an S4, let me know.

I just recently bought an S4. I was waiting on the S5, but once they released the specs, I saw no reason to save and pay 3x as much for the S5 with minimal improvements over the S4.

I made the switch from an iPhone 4S to the Galaxy S4 and don't regret it one bit! I bought it for the bigger screen. I have my pages set up similar to my iPhone and there's barely anything I miss.
