TERRIBLE

This is the worst phone i've ever owned. The calling broke in a month and the camera randomly shuts down and refuses to work. The battery life is horrible. Everyone i know who has owned this phone agrees that it is the worst. Would never recommend it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Battery drain and poor performance
on May 19, 2014
Posted by: DFSub
Expertise:Expert
This device has great features plus stuff I don't need and cannot get rid of. I'm sure someone wants to know an earthquake occurred in South America when they live in North America but I'm not one of them. There are so many features that it drags down the performance of the phone from doing anything else. Cannot multiple because there are so many things running. I had to disable a lot of Samsung app in order to use the phone. Also, because of all these apps, the battery died mid-morning. Wouldn't even last a day. the battery life improved once I disabled everything I don't need and won't crash TouchWiz.
The camera is great. Love the 360 Panorama but like all Panorama pictures, it's one long, narrow strip.
Group play and camcorder sound like novel concepts but no one to use it with.
Pros: Bright display, camera
Cons: Too big, Did not meet expectations, poor battery, poor performance, too many non-removable bloatware
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great phone, but...

I got my Samsung Galaxy S5 about a month now, it's a great phone, with great features and the camera is the best with fast shutter time and great features. BUT the downside is the battery which runs out fast when using wi-fi, and it gets really hot, but the biggest disappointment was the Facebook app, as it got frozen after a few minutes and you had to wait for 5-10 minutes until the phone started to respond again. i hope samsung makes some quick responses to these issues.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

I highly recommend this phone to anyone out there the only reason I gave 4 stars for features is because in reality there isn't much different from the galaxy S4 it's still an amazing phone though fast great screen great photos and water resistant! Dropped it in my sink and no bubbles the s5 is amazing!! amazing I tell you!! I highly recommend it but if you already have an s4 I recommend waiting on the s6 although if you have the money or chance go for it you won't regret it I know I haven't:)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight, water resistant!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

phone has lagging issues
on June 20, 2014

Upgraded from an HTC device hoping for a better experience, and finding myself back where I started. The phone is not performing as a "flagship" should. The phone takes a very long time to turn on, the camera is slow and cumbersome. Hard to end a call, the screen stays black, until the person whom I was on the call with hangs up. I could go on and on... hoping for an update to fix the bugs.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, has bad lagging issues
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
