There have been many rumors surrounding the so-called Samsung Galaxy S5 Premium Edition, but the smartphone has yet to be unannounced.

Samsung fans virtually attending the company's last week conference at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014 have probably been disappointed by the lack of innovation the announced Galaxy S5 brings to the consumers.

The South Korean company needed to announce the Samsung Galaxy S5 at MWC 2014, otherwise many Android enthusiasts would have turned to competition for top-tier devices.

As it is, Samsung still has a chance and judging by the latest information regarding Galaxy S5 pre-orders, it seems the smartphone will be another success for the handset maker.

Still, the issue of the Samsung Galaxy S5 Premium Edition remains and we can't help but wonder if this device really exists in reality or it's just an idea the South Korean company wanted to take advantage of it in case the standard edition's sales were unexpectedly low.

Well, that doesn't stop us from guessing what the mysterious Galaxy S5 Premium Edition might look like, though some of the smartphone's alleged specs have leaked lots of weeks ago.

Ivo Maric created an interesting, to say the least, concept of a device that he called it Samsung Galaxy F. The name appeared for the first time a few weeks ago when some insiders claimed the South Korean handset maker might launch a brand new F series of smartphones that would be aimed at high-end market.

These devices would mostly feature metallic bodies and top-of-the-line technologies and specs. One of these smartphones may have been the long rumored Samsung Galaxy S5.

As far-stretched as it may seem, anything is possible in the smartphone business, so we should take into consideration all options one company has in order to beat the competition.

The new concept made by Ivo Maric has a full metallic body and measures 8.1mm in thickness. The physical Home button has been maintained, along with the part on the back that embeds the phone's camera.

However, both sides of the smartphone are curved and there's a new button right under the camera that can be pre-defined for different actions, such as accessing flash feature, enable/disable HDR function, and many others.

This seems to resemble LG's innovative Power on/off button in the G2 and G Flex smartphones that has been placed on the back, right under the camera.

Samsung Galaxy F concept sports 5.2-inch display, which makes slightly larger than the standard Galaxy S5 (the real one) that features a 5.1-inch screen. The rest of the phone's specs are left for everyone's imagination.
