Overall, this product is great

Coming from a Iphone, this product is great.
Download speeds are much better and screen is easier to read.
The only thing i need to get use to, is the size of the phone. Not a big deal

So Disappointed
on May 9, 2015
Posted by: Irish5050

I had a Galaxy S4 and loved it. When the S4 started to fail - I replaced it with the S5 and have regretted it ever since. I've had nothing but issues with how the phone operates - won't download pictures, the user interface is not intuitive. This may just be the phone that gets me to switch to iPhone.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

To buy an S6 or S5

I was going to go for the latest and greatest - the S6 (not really thrilled with the Edge design), but after learning about the inability to replace the battery and add an SD card, I went for the S5. I read about all the issues with Lollipop on the S5, but figured I'll stay with KitKat. Unfortunately, I was "forced" to upgrade or at least was unable to find a way to avoid the upgrade.
Anyway, maybe it's because it was new out-of-the-box and the upgrade was done before I started to add apps, but as of now (about 1 month), no issues! Everything is fine. Speed is as expected, battery life is good (getting about 2 days before charging), etc.
So my bottom line is that I'm glad I chose the S5 over the S6.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung galaxy S5

Great product put out by Samsung, having had 2 of these within the past year. Best features I would say is definitely the camera quality. Even family members who are devoted I-Phone owners are reluctant to admit the superior ability of the SG5!!!!
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent, but pricey, and fingerprint scanner can be hacked.

Love this phone! My first smart phone. It is amazing. Only 2 issues: (1) high price (2) fingerprint scanner is apparently hackable! Samsung fixed this for the S6, apparently. However, they need to provide a free app to S5 users to protect this. I love the fp scan feature, but am afraid of the security vulnerability recently reported. Otherwise, this is a great phone/computer/game console/ calendar/ alarm clock/ GPS etc etc, all wrapped up in one! LOVE it!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use for first-time smart phone buyers, gps & directions with single click, lots of memory, user friendly features
Cons: fingerprint scanner is a hackable feature.
I would recommend this to a friend!
