Phone Calls
on January 8, 2015

I love all the features this phone has to offer. The BIGGEST complaint I have is when I make phone calls multiple people have told me my calls sound muffled and can't understand me. I have spoke to other Samsung Galaxy S 5 owners and have told me the same thing. I wish they would fix this and offer current owners a new phone with this resolved
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, muffled calls
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

GS5 = Best phone in it's category of 2014

The phone is awesome for the most part, it's speedy, has a wonderful 1080p Full HD SuperAMOLED display, and is very powerful with great battery life! Some of the feature prove useful while others are sort of gimmicky. Fingerprint sensor needs some work for sure, and the design definitely could use a overhaul! I'm tired of the same old Samsung plastic design they can't seem to let go, and it's fake metal frame. Cameras great although OIS would be nice, as well as a brighter flash, perhaps a Xenon LED flash would be better.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor build quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

some many problems so little time

Speaker stopped working entirely for media and calls. Must have headset to talk on phone or headphones to listen to anything.
30 times a days it alerts me that Gmail shut down. Even though Gmail works fine.
I often cannot get contacts to come up in text messages. I need to go out to contacts, select the person and then text. If I want to send a message to multiple people while it is doing that I am sol.
For 3 weeks I could not respond to joint text messages. Somehow that resolved itself m
For 3 weeks I could not send pictures through text.
On a regular basis my 4G LTE arrows go blank and I have to wait for the phone to decided to find signal again. This has often corresponded with the text issues above and sometimes means I cannot make outgoing calls at all.
Cons: Did not meet expectations, constantly having issues
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Better than sliced bread the galaxy 5s can do everything the iPhone (yuck) can do and do it better. Love size speed and finally got the battery life right. I have only owned a galaxy. From the original to the galaxy s3 to the 5s. And I will never own another type of phone again!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had the Samsung Galaxy S5 for the last 6 months, and I am thoroughly impressed! Waterproof and dustproof, all I added was a simple case and screen protector, and it's pretty much indestructible now. The performance is wonderful, experiencing no lag when I am running multiple apps. Well done, Samsung. I would definitely recommend this to others.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight, water resistant
Cons: plastic casing
I would recommend this to a friend!
