13:27 For those who don't know, the Galaxy S5 uses a *microUSB 3.0* port, which is a faster data transfer and charging version than the common microUSB 2.0 port. It's basically a standard microUSB 2.0 port with extra 3.0 pins in the square-shaped hole beside the main 2.0 hole, so, don't worry, *any working microUSB connectors* 2.0 or 3.0, will *fit* into Galaxy S5 (and any microUSB 3.0 devices) and can be used for charging, data transferring, AV output, and everything you normally do with USBs😇😇😇🙏🏻😎👍🏻

Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
