While we wait for the official announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S5 in India on Thursday, here's a chance for you to experience Samsung's flagship smartphone well before it hits stores on 11 April.

Samsung has launched the Galaxy S5 Experience app on Google Play store for smartphones running Android 4.0 and above. The app is available only for the smartphones with at least 1GHz processor coupled with 1GB of RAM (or more) and a screen resolution of at least 480x800 pixels. The Experience app does not work on tablets.

The Experience app only gives users a walkthrough of the main features of the Samsung Galaxy S5. As Samsung also mentioned on its page that, "The app provides interactive introduction on Galaxy S5 and Wearable Devices (Gear2 , Gear Fit) with 4 different categories such as Camera, Speed, Fitness, Life."

Inside the app users can experience different aspects of the Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Gear2 and Gear Fit. It essentially flaunts the features in tabs like Camera, Speed, Fitness, Dust & Water Resistance, Gear and more. These tabs do nothing more than letting the users know what the Galaxy S5 can do and how is it better.

So apart from the camera and speed, users can get to know more about the built-in Heart Rate monitor and Pedometer features through 'Fitness' tab. Also the Gear tab flaunts features of Samsung's Gear 2 smartwatch and Gear Fit fitness band.

Notably the South Korean giant has announced that its Galaxy S5 smartphone, accompanied by the Gear 2 and Gear Fit wearables, is up for preview and pre-order in more than 61 countries starting last Friday (21 March).
