I have owned 3 of these phones and currently own a galaxy s5. I love samsung. I own 3 samsung tv's including a smart tv. A tablet laptop Camara washer dryer and I sure more. I will say I'm not to sure about the new Galaxy 6. No removable battery or storage
At first, I thought all the features were really cool, until they became too much and they drain the battery quicker. I had issues with my phone turning off randomly, then it was restarting randomly, then it went back to just turning off randomly again. I ended up buying a new battery that is a different brand after doing some research, and now it stays on just fine. I had to replace my micro sd card and lost all of my photos because the phone kept removing and remounting the card on its own. Eventually, the sd card became corrupted and I couldn't save it. I had to buy a new one after that. Now, I keep getting an alert that tells me to restart my phone because my sim card has been removed. I tried taking it out and putting it back in, but it still does it randomly. Also, the original battery for the phone would get so hot sometimes in my pocket, that it would burn my leg and I would be forced to take it out and remove the battery until it cooled back down. This would happen even when nothing was running on the phone. It seams like every update the phone had, more and more things started to go wrong. Recently, I keep having issues with my notification alerts not going off. I sometimes don't get any vibration or sound when a text is received, or an email, or any other notifications. I know the speaker works though, because I can play sound on it, and I checked all the volume controls and notification sounds and settings. The only way I know I have a notification without unlocking my phone is if I happen to see the tiny notification LED at the top of the phone.
I have used my S4 for close to a year now and it has been great! First off I like the design and the tough build of this phone.I also like the screen size in relation to overall size.It's very well proportioned. The display is another of my favorites. It is super clear and fun to use. Next, I really like the performance this phone delivers.It's fast with apps and has only frozen 3 or 4 times.It's very simple to figure out and quite self explanatory. Of course there's a few places where it could be better.The front facing camera could use a few more megapixals and the main speaker could be better. Really that's the only cons I can think of. Overall this has been an amazing phone for me and continues to be .I would recommend this to others Well done, Samsung!
I take great pictures, better than my digital camera. It is easy to use and discover new features each week. . What i like best is that is so easy to use the smart component of the phone without getting a stress headache.
I am old school, and this phone is pretty easy to figure out. The settings were in a different place than my last phone, besides that it has been smooth sailing. Since operated these phones is not second nature to me, I am pleased with the feature that pops up to tell you something and gives you the option for a reminder in the future.
