Samsung Galaxy S5 16GB—No Contract—on Walmart Online — $752.63.
Apple iPhone 5S 16GB — No Contract—on Walmart Online — $649.00
Hmmmmm. The top of the line Apple iPhone is $103.63 less expensive at Walmart.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 with a 2 year Contract at AT&T is $ 199.99 or $649.99 with no contract.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 with a 2 year Contract at AT&T is $ 49.99 or $599.99 with no contract.
Oh, WOW! The iPhone 5S, the top of the line offering from Apple, is $ 150 less expensive than Samsung's copy phone, with a 2 year contract, and $100 less expensive, with no contract from AT&T. Looks like if you choose Samsung, you go wrong on the price. They aren't priced right.
On Verizon, both are being offered for just $99.00 with a two year contract. . . but the Samsung requires you wait to get a $50 rebate card from Samsung to get that price after paying $149 at checkout. However, on Verizon, the non-contract iPhone is $649.99 and the Samsung Galaxy S5 is lower at $599.99.* but is really * $649.99 with a $50 rebate card from Samsung. Some savings on the Samsung if you jump through the hoops.
On lower end Samsung phones, yes, you can save some money. . . but you can also buy an Apple iPhone 5C, or an Apple 4S (free with contract). . . so where are the savings?

Apples and oranges. The S5 is a month old. The Apple 5S is 9 months old, almost a product generation behind the Samsung product. The Apple has a 4 inch display vs the Samsung's 5 inches. Most people don't pay the same price for last year's model with a smaller screen. Both Apple's and Samsung's copy phones (copied from Windows CE, which is why both companies pay MSFT sizable royalties per phone sold) are nice, but Apple is only marginally more innovative than Samsung. Its primary contribution was being first to market.
I think I’d buy the Apple phone after seeing your cost research
