Didn't have even 2 weeks & RAM is already at 87% used. I had to delete facebook to get it down to 68%.
Had an S5 liked it better

The best
on December 5, 2015
Posted by: S5fanman
I waited until the S6 was released before switching from my iPhone 5s, but when I learned that the S6 had no swappable battery, no sd card slot, no water resistance, and a glass back, I decided that the practicality of the S5 was the way to go. I am glad I did! It is a great looking phone that has great features.
It is unfortunate that the majority favor bright and shiny over functionality, and as for now my opinion is this is the best phone Samsung has made (but it is also the only one I have owned...so there is that...).

Also, for what it's worth, anyone I have talked to that owns the S6 loves it. The S5 was just definitely the phone for me.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, waterproof, textured back, expandable memory and swappable battery
Cons: wish speaker volume could be a bit louder, verizon bloat
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to manage space and Internet searches.
Lots of storage for files, notes, folders, and pics.
Easy to switch back and forth between folders.
I pay all my bills on line each month with my phone.
Would not do that unless the this phone makes it simple

Corporate Account - No choice on model but....

Ok so they finally upgraded me from the S4 to the S5 - great! Faster and better quality period. LOVE THE POWER setting that allows me to push the limits of the battery life - I was at 22% batt life over a weekend and it lasted the whole weekend which would be perfect for the camping trip or whatever and all you want is phone - turn off all the extra stuff on a full charge and you can roll over a week WOW. Finger print is aggravating compared to my 6S iPhone (oops I should have left that out) - but over all for a work phone to use for corporate email and a hot spot, I like it.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, awesome power saving mode
Cons: finger print reader
I would recommend this to a friend!
