Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, waterproof
I would recommend this to a friend!

I Would Still Have My S5 If I Didn’t Just Get An S7

I absolutely loved my S5 (still do!). It had a great camera with plenty of modes, a pretty loud little built-in speaker, and lots of customizability. Plus, that thing was built like a tank (several drops and not a scratch) and with a replaceable battery, it was probably the best phone I've owned to date.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: Too big, started to slow down a lot over last few months
I would recommend this to a friend!

S5 Is Still The Best Galaxy
on March 28, 2016
Posted by: blueshirt
from GA
Expertise:Intermediate
After owing an S1, S3, S5, and having hands on experience with the S6, and S7, I still feel that Samsung hit the nail on the head with the S5.
While the screen definition isn't as good as my wife's S7, it fully meets my expectations, and is more than adequate for Netflix, and Youtube while I'm cooking, and browsing during the day. The battery in my S5 currently is around a year and half, to 2 years old, and it is still considerably longer lasting than the S7. The size is just right, the heartbeat, and fingerprint sensors are useful, and well-working. Internal storage isn't a problem with the ease of use of SD cards. The only gripe I have- and it seems others have had the same problem- is that the accelerometer seems to have failed after a couple years, meaning the rotation, and step counting no longer works.
Overall, it is the best Galaxy S phone I have had experience with, and if this one broke, I would most likely get another.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, long battery life
Cons: some sensors fail over time
I would recommend this to a friend!

I Love All Galaxy Phones Especially Notes The Only Reason Why I Give The Performance A 4/5 Is That At Some Points In Time It Gets Really Slow And Requires A Restart Of The Phone...I Also Wish It Was Running The Newest Version Of The Operating System ( Right Now It Would Be Marshmallow )
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, its a galaxy, water resistant, good camera
Cons: charger flap, no s-pen
I would recommend this to a friend!

I lived patiently with my s5 for this release. The SD card slot and the waterest resistance are a must for my lifestyle.. Samsung knocked this one out of the park, I really haven't found anything to complain about.
Pros: water resistant, sd card slot, fast wireless charging
Cons: google music is the only media player that comes l
I would recommend this to a friend!

nice phone, glad they brought back expandable memory storage, water proofing and dust proof.
I work in construction and these features are important to me, just wish they would make a case and holster with a belt clip so the phone slides in from the top without a catch on it to make it easer to get the phone in and out of the holster.
