Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

I always buy galaxy smartphones (this is my 3rd) because I'm just used to them, but every time I upgrade I keep hoping they'll be better only to find out its much of the same.
Every galaxy I've had has freeze up problems where I have to re start the device or do a battery pull, and this one the S5 is no different the phone is barely a month old and it's freezing up on me. What worries me is if and when I pickup a S6 that has a NON REMOVABLE battery, the phone is sealed shut like an new I phone.so my fear is you guessed it what if it freezes and there's no way to do a battery pull to reboot the device...I hope that Samsung has figured out this little problem, I guess I'll have to wait a while to see, I do generally like Samsung products, I have a TV and a blue ray from them and they are great.but as far as smartphones go I give them a 3 star overall, but I don't give an I phone anything better they have their issues as well, my son and girlfriend have I phones with problems but this isn't a perfect world unfortunately.
