Best phone on the market as of right now.

I love this phone. Very fast and responsive. The display is amazing. The camera is unreal. The only downfall is , as all smartphones, battery. Its a good battery but not great. However; having the ultra saving mode is a life saver.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: battery
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone is super fast, and easy to work on. The pictures are Extraordinarily Great! Very easy to take and satisfying to see. Very easy to send as well. The screen is very ample so you get a very good viewing feature for Netflix or watching videos on device. The battery also last a long time.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

This is a great phone, Family members have the S3, and a friend has the S4, but this phone is the best of them all.
It has lots of 'free' memory allowing me to load all sorts of apps!
The camera is EXCELLENT.
HD video playback is great.
A nice added feature is water resistant!

Love the phone speed and graphics. Also the clarity of the screen and its visibility in direct sunlight. My only negative comment is the battery life. 8 hrs in from a full charge, with normal use, I'm usually hovering around 50 % battery life.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: battery life

I hadn't been watching any of the pre-release information for the S5, and I apparently bought mine just before the big marketing splash. It was time to move off my old phone, and I saw that this was the newest one available that had the features I wanted. I bought for features and price point, and I got a fantastic phone!
I love the Samsung interface, I love the performance, I love the screen. I'm so happy I went Samsung!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight

excellent device in the 2014 phone journey

The newest S5 is sleek, vibrant and soothing in color display, fast than its predecessors, has a powerful camera and comes with a free drop-box account.
The smart features work very efficiently. The "free samsung" account is useful for the entire phone backup and effective than the other phone vendors in the industry.
Highly recommend for both tech savvy and casual phone users.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, sleek, vibrant
Cons: pricy

I loved my phone when I first got it now it gives me issues, the screen goes black when listening to Pandora and I have to turn the phone off to get it to work again. Also not able to receive MMS they come in saying download and when I try it never works!!!!! This is the third time I am having this issue!!!!!!! I thought it was resolved because I started to receive them but then a couple days later it stops working again!!!!!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, mms not downloading
I would recommend this to a friend!
