not that good but expensive

Nice add on but the problem is it will not close when laying flat and also if you drop it the first thing that will happen is the cover will fly open and the first thing to brake is the screen
Pros: Durable
Cons: Did not meet expectations, will not close
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am able to view who's calling me without ever opening the cover! I can either answer or decline the call if I so choose. It's totally awesome!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great feature but poor design

I upgraded my phone from S4 to S5 and so did with the flip cover. I was so happy & impressed with the S4 flip cover that I had no second thoughts to buy S5 case. And it looked great to begin with.
Once I had the flip case, I realized that the design of S5 flip case is pretty bad. Could not believe Samsung even offers such a product. It seriously lacks attention to the details.
The S4 flip case blended so nicely with the phone. And the finish was so great. In fact it well complemented the beauty of the phone.
On the other hand, S5 case does not blend well with the phone. The phone edges are curved while the case is sharp 90 deg cuts. The surface finish of the case looks sub standard. It hides the beauty of the phone instead of enhancing it.
I've stopped using the case. There aren't any other better alternatives either!

Pros: very handy, protects phone, s-view window
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, poor design, doesn't blend well with the phone, poor surface finish, lack of attention to details
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Flip Cover Needs Improvement
on October 15, 2014

The flip cover remains open. Must place face down to keep it closed. When phone falls the flip cover falls off and the phone battery falls off.
When you carry or hold the phone the camera is activated when thumb touches the camera icon through the view window.
When you use apps with sound on phone with flip cover open the speakers are muffled.

Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Not high def, Did not meet expectations, doesn't remain closed, muffle speakers, can't remove camera from view window, limited wallpaper views, limited items viewed through view window
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Huge disappointment
on June 9, 2014
Posted by: OldGeekette

Expertise:Intermediate
It is cool that there is some quick view functionality, but it is geared toward one user type and one only. I couldn't care less about having quick access to the music player since I never use it, but would like to check or preview emails. You can't change the quick apps (or whatever they're called) and so far I haven't found a way to disable the music player.
Cons: can't customize
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Does not protect phone from damage

This case is expensive and it does not protect your phone. I dropped my phone 3 feet. My screen cracked and no longer works. The purpose of a case is to protect your phone. This product does not protect your phone.
Cons: does not protect
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

perfect for the S5

I got one of these and it fits better than a gel or sturdy case.
It does not thicken you phone,it is still waterproof and protects your screen.
Simply perfect for my needs!
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!
