Super fast
on August 21, 2015
Posted by: Hazepaul
from Las Vegas
I love the speed of my new phone. I am a mechanic so I sometimes touch the phone with dirty hands and like that at the end of the day I can wipe it down with a wet washcloth.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, good camera, water resistant
I would recommend this to a friend!

My S5 is everything I hoped for!
on August 21, 2015

The S5 is the phone I would have designed if given the chance. The screen is bright, crisp and the colors are a sight for sore eyes. The battery outlasts any I have tried in the past. Storage, come on, the S5 will accept a 128Gig SD card. Just try and fill that card up. The S5 charges in such a short time that I don't worry when I run it down, a quick shot on the charger and I am back in business. The size is perfect and the weight is light enough for me to forget that it's in my pocket, on several occasions this actually happened. It's also rugged, I found this out the first day by accidentally knocking it off of my truck hood. I picked it up with fear in my eyes. But I barely found a scuff mark on one edge. As you can see, I am a happy camper when it comes to the Samsung S5. I would have to get extremely picky to come up with a negative mark here. OK, there is one thing that does bother me from time to time. The dust cover to the charging port is hard for me to open. I don't have fingernails and this little trap door requires a sturdy fingernail. I have to grab a sharp, pointed object to open the charging door. Even that has an up side. The dust cover does keep out foreign debris and dust and if I break it, it's really simple to replace that dust cover and they are sold everywhere. So, I don't worry about breaking that dust cover with my weapon of choice when I pry it open. Again, that is such a minor hang up. I almost forgot, the S5 has less than half of the bloat ware that the S4 came with. That also made me a happy camper. And to finish this up, the camera is much better than I will ever need, it takes some really nice pix. I am sold on this Samsung Galaxy S5, it will take something extraordinary to get me to upgrade. Enjoy, and don't forget, the S5 is also a cell phone. :)
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, endless storage vault
Cons: charging door/dust cover
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wow! !! What a phone
on August 21, 2015

Yes it is a very good phone, but it's so much more. It's fast, really fast, I think its faster than my laptop, as I look at the laptop I wonder what I need that for now. .. The camera is simple to use, it's quality matches my DSLR!
Paired with a beats pill 2.0 on Bluetooth music sounds amazing and watching a movie sounds so good.
The WiFi receiver is better than my laptop and netbook, my router is some distance away from me and I still get a workable signal, lm really impressed! !!
The intuitive keyboard takes a little learning but is worth the effort, it does speed things up. I do like it.
If I were not a heavy user I would get more life out of the battery, otherwise it will last all day. For all this phone is doing I'm amazed.
The ability to customize your phone is easy and allows you to layout your phone to look the way that makes sense to you, I really like that.

My last phone was an iPhone, and I doubt I'll ever buy another one. The Samsung Galaxy s5 is more than I thought it would be, this phone is a winner! !!
Pros: Inexpensive, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: none
