Love this phone!!!

I love this phone so much. This is the best phone Ive ever had. I got this phone when I switched to Sprint from Boost Mobile. And so far Sprint is the best I've had and im so satisfied.
This phone I first thought was complicated to understand, but after I spent the time to look through it, it was worth the money. Theres so many assets to the phone that makes it a great gadget!

I have been watching the promotions for the Samsung 5 for a few months with great interest. After much mulling over, I took the plunge and purchased it. I'm not a techie so I'm not as wowed by the technical aspects as some. After three weeks, I am still trying to get through all of the bells and whistles even though I will probably not use the majority of them.
I like the sleek look and and general appearance of this phone. I can access my three email accounts, send/receive texts and access the internet. These are the most important features to me.

I wish that Samsung would not have pre-loaded applications on the phone most of which I may not use. It would have been better to allow me to decide which applications I felt were necessary to download.
I have noticed that I am not able to access the web as easily as I was with my previous phone which was three years old when I purchased the Samsung 5. The key board is alternately too sensitive/not sensitive enough. I find that a stylus works best with the keyboard which prevents so many mistakes and allows for more precision when writing. I'm used to the tactile nature of the Blackberry so this has been an adjustment.
Overall, I like the phone and expect it to meet the high threshold it has set for itself.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color

Best Smart Phone Yet

I just got a Galaxy S5. I works very well. It was easy to bring data and software from my old phone. The set up was easy and it is great to see battery life last more than a day. My old phone was down to half a day. In spite of the complaints I have seen about the fingerprint reader not working I have learned how to do it with a flat stroke and it works well. I would like to seek an acoustic finger print read, but maybe that will be in the next version. All of my old apps work while a few new ones are welcome.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color

I love the Galaxy s5 with all the cool features like ultra power saving mode , toolbox, and the new interface. Samsung is really going to give other manufacturers a run for their money because they are involved with reasarching peoples needs in a smartphone ,and the s5 shows.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, all the different custom options, easy interface, sprint spark
