I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5 to replace my iPhone 5 and I love it. I had to purchase a new phone after numerous software issues with my iPhone and I was a little scared about switching operating systems but the Samsung made it so easy. I love the water resistance and amazing quality of the display. One thing I really don't like it that music purchased in google play does not get automatically moved into music. I also don't like that I can't reorder my apps in the actual apps pages. Other than that I love it.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: Too big
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Phone

A couple people I knew had purchased the Samsung Galaxy S5 and loved it. I was overdue for a new phone and decided to switch to team Android. I couldn't have been more happy with my change. This phone has a large screen display but is still slim and light weight. The battery life is outstanding too. After getting use to the Android software, it is an easy phone to use. The only problem, I would say, is that it comes with too many already installed apps. Overall, it is a fantastic phone and I would highly recommend it.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, long battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

One of the best phones at any price.

Pros:
perfect size.
I drop the heck out of it and it never breaks
great image quality,
fast,
great assortment of features,
being water resistant has been a bigger benefit than I thought
Samsung makes improvements in the OS and the hardware but don't make me relearn everything or make me go buy new ac chargers or car chargers
so easy to change batteries or micro sd or micro sim
perfect size.

Cons:
It's not cheap
Whenever young women see me using it they want to hug and kiss me and I am shy (not really true. Just a dream I had)
speaker is ok (about what you would expect)
I can't think of any other cons
My first to phones were made by a company with fruit as part of its name and they were good but my last three phones have been Samsung because you get more choice of how your device runs and more control over hardware. I am very pleased.

I LOVE this phone

I have had a number of phones over the past couple of years, and this one is by far my favorite.
I used to be a light user of my phone. I used it mainly for text and email. This phone has gotten me a lot more into using the extra features and apps.

-The phone itself is very fast. I have been using it for about 6 months now without any slow down at all.
- Battery life is very good as well, especially for the screen size. I can get through a full day with heavy use. It will last me a couple days if I am just using text email and some facebook ect.
- Build quality is great. I actually got this phone because of the water resistance and overall build.
Con:
- the only con I really have is that I wish it was a bit smaller. The trend lately for phones is to have a huge screen. I just wish it was a bit smaller. (the thinness of the phone still makes it comfortable for your pocket though, so no worries there)

I love this phone and couldn't recommend it more. I'm really glad I went with this one. Usually after this long with a phone I have more complaints about it, so overall I can not recommend it more!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Calls Won't Work
on January 9, 2015
Posted by: BrokenNote4
Expertise:Intermediate
After having the phone for 2 months, the mic (or something) decided to stop working. So, when I'm on a call, the other person can't hear me. The whole, "can you hear me now" thing ensues.... and at the end of it, the answer is, 'no'. While the "phone" has some neat features, a cell phone with a BROKEN PHONE feature is of no use to me.
As a flagship phone, I cannot believe how awful it is. It is completely unacceptable.
I googled the issue, and some users are reporting issues with 'ok google' and 's voice'. I deactivated both, rebooted numerous times, and my phone still won't work.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, phone doesn't work
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
