I love my Galaxy S5

Expertise:Expert
My first Galaxy phone was the S4. When I broke it I knew I had to get the Galaxy S5. And I don't regret it at all. I watch a lot of videos, so it worked out perfectly. The battery life is amazing. The power saver feature really works, not like on other phones. And the video quality is so crisp, makes you lick you fingers like after eating Doritos. I also found this 360 degree camera feature. I was just blown away. I love my GS5. Can't wait to get the 6.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, camera, endless features
I would recommend this to a friend!

Product does what I need and more

Love the S5. Purchased the S5 as an upgrade from S3. Both provide what I need a phone to do. Truthfully I had a little trouble adusting to some changes in the cameras and a few other features. There are somethings on both phones I never use and added some additional apps to allow sync with Outlook and others. Love the feature of having the ability to change the battery and SD card (one reason I did not go for the S6). Love the processor speed of the S5 making startup and downloads faster. S Health features are great. The sharpness and brightness of the display is great.
I usually keep phones for a while and will most likely keep this one longer unless Samsung comes out with another with changeable battery and SD card.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, changeable battery, changeable sd card
Cons: too much bloatware
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great phone, poor memory space
on August 15, 2015

As a diligent Samsung owner for several years, I find myself going for the next generation when I upgrade and am usually not disappointed. I love the ease in learning to use a new model, the different features, the camera quality, call quality, etc. However, the amount of storage space is ridiculous. I am constantly pushing apps onto my SD card (if that's an option, which is not on quite a few) just to be able to update an already installed application. Then having to go through and disable several applications that I will never use. And many are not so easily disabled. And I don't even have many apps that I download to have this problem. It's a constant battle. Otherwise, it's a great phone, as usual. And I will likely be a lifelong Samsung user.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: memory space!

Cons: battery life
