Had the phone for 6 months now. Camera worked fine for the first 4, then camera failed messages start popping up or of the blue. Over all I like the phone bit not having a camera is no good, my carrier offered me factory referbished, but no thanks I'll just stick it out and maybe move to a different phone when my contact is up.
Cons: Poor quality, camera failed
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I own this cell phone for over 6 months now. I love all the features, the screen size, bright and crisp display, light in weigh, slim. The battery life is a plus that can be doubled with the power saving mode and almost tripled with the ultra power saving mode, very useful during long flights and trips where access to charging stations are limited. As a security measure the biometrics used for authentication to lock the phone are also a big plus, along whit the locator feature in case the phone would ever get lost. The motion and air view features are awesome when reading long e-mails and or browsing pictures and the internet without having to touch the screen. The camera and video are of superior quality with great detail and crisp detailed color and contrast. It is very hard for me to find any cons with this phone. Hope this helps. Adler.
Purchased for me and my son. Love the Galaxy S5. Only issue that seems to not be able to be resolved is that my son's screen will shutoff (saving battery) but mine will not fade to black. It will stay on as if I am continuously using it. Other is the calendar doesn't sync
Pros: Realistic color
Cons: screen drains battery because it wont shutdown, calendar does not sync
I would recommend this to a friend!

I enjoy this phone. However, people have exaggerated the battery life by saying it lasts for days and it only going down a small percentage. Very pleased with it after switching from Apple. The best part is the customizability of the product. Weird part is that the speaker is on the back.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the Galaxy S 5! The pictures that the camera takes are amazing! The operating system is easy to use, allows fluid, seamless operation, the processor is very fast and efficient. The screen resolution is beautiful, battery life is great. I can honestly say the Galaxy S 5 is the best phone I have ever owned! The size is perfect for me; I would not want a phone any larger. If there is one thing I would suggest on improving: it would be the volume output on the speaker for the ringers, alerts, etc. If not for that minor issue; I would have given it 5 stars across the board.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, great processing power
