All is good about the phone. The disadvantage is the tech stuff is outdated. I am going to get the new G7. The G5 can be upgraded for wireless charging but cases for it are hard to find. Also my G5 only has 16mb and I found I need at least 32. The battery is good, but just depends on how much you use the phone to how long the power lasts. With the G-5 you have the advantage of changing batteries. I did have a problem with the charging port. Had to get an other one because it would not charge any longer.
I've had this phone since February 2016 and I must say that I have had no problems learning how to use it. I'm 65 and not tech savy at all, but I couldn't believe how easy it was to navigate the features. I am so satisfied that I decided to upgrade to this, that my wife has to pull me off of it so I can go to bed.
This phone is wonderful, takes great pics and has a decent battery life.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I never looked at the tour provided. I just started pushing buttons and loaded what apps I use regularly and have been in touch since walking out of the store. Even my grandkids (who aren't in school ) have figured out how to use this phone. We just love it.
Features and performance is okay up to 3 stars. Delays when calling, lags with simple multiple tasks. Goes idle before opening applications. Hard to navigate tools to do minor adjustments or changing settings. Camera delays long time before taking a picture even with the lowest resolution possible; therefore missing precious moments and ending with blurred pictures.
Cons: Poor quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Samsung S5 is a good next logical step from the S4.

It's a good next step to the S4. The feature are similar enough where the learning curve is minimal. The slightly larger screen is very impressive when streaming video. i was watching a spring training baseball game. i could see the blades of grass. This phone retains the replaceable battery. Unlike the S6. this allows me to use multiple battery's when a charger is not available. for me this is huge... I would definitely recommend the S5 over the S6.
Been using it for a month with no bugs or hang ups. Would have given 5 stars across-the-board but was looking for a slimmer phone. Would rather have less preloaded apps.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, good antenna
