On third year still working like it should. Recommend a good case for it and it will last long time. I've used and abused it. I'm hard on my phones and this one has out lasted any of my previous phones of other brands. I would recommend to anyone that wants a smooth operating, bright and fast phone.
Pros: Bright display, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the S5 works great. Easy to set up and has lots of features. Just wish it had more device memory storage. I fixed that anyway.
It takes alot of energy and has to be charge alot. The battery life is poor. Camera is ok
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I went from a Samsung S3 to the S5. I really like the look of this phone and I like the size of it. It is still thin enough to fit in most things yet you still get a bigger picture and more usable space on the face. I can't say that I am disappointed in the phone but I am disappointed in the update from 03 to 05 I expected more unique additions to the phone. It's very much resembles my S3 but has more style and class and the setup is much nicer. The biggest issue I have so far with this phone is that when you receive group text through your Samsung txt default, it does not receive them, most often I found this to be a big problem since a great deal of my friends have an iPhone and I could not receive their text when they sent a group text. I found that changing the texting to a Google Messenger fix this problem but I was disappointed that Samsung had this issue in the first place. That is probably the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I would definitely recommend this to my friends because I have used Samsung products for years including their tablets and I still like them better then most other products they are much easier to use and I find them to be less bulky I like the design of them also.
For the value the Samsung Galaxy S5 could be better constructed. For e.g. the speakers could be located somewhere else. The device should also be packaged with its own headphones and wand.
