I am truly impressed with this device. Lightning fast, very reliable, far better features in the Android release coupled with it. I'll never use another smartphone again unless it's a Samsung after all of the great devices I've owned by them
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

We had major issues with our LAST phones since we bought them. WE BOUGHT SAMSUNG GALAXY S5'S...WHOA MAMA, SUCH A DIFFERENCE. NOT ONE PROBLEM. Did take us a little bit to figure out all the "stuff", but have most of it figured out now, month later. So thankful/happy we changed. No more stress/frustration, feel like "big shots" now. The Galaxy S 5 is easy to use, fast, pictures are amazing! Thanks so much Samsung!! Excellent product!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the phone, not the UI.

Pros: I absolutely LOVE the phone, the camera is beyond perfect, the water resistance is a life saver, the screen is crisp and bright will still be packed full of vivid colors, it charges insanely fast while keeping a charge all day and so much more.
Cons: lacks a good premium look, speaker could be better, and here comes the biggest one: the UI. Samsung, why can't you let the user decide if they want TouchWiz or not? I want stock Andoid, not a lagging ram-hungry UI. Please consider this in future times.

Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, camera

Very Solid phone with good features and accessories

I was a Galaxy S2 owner before getting the S5. I also changed carriers. I really like the battery life on the S5 - it is much longer than the S2. This might also be a result of the new carrier having a getter network that limits roaming.
However, the extra capabilities of the S5 due to the better screen and processor are also nice. I also got the Samsung flip case with the small touch-screen window which is worth every penny. It is so nice to have the protection without a screen protector, but best of all is being able to answer calls without opening the phone.
I'm also thinking about getting the Galaxy Gear watch, both because it is just cool :) but also because I wear a watch anyway and it has nice features.
I must admit I really like the Samsung brand as I have found the other product I own (TV, Bluray, Galaxy Note Tab) to be really solid and reliable.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
