Simple But Lacking

So far I really enjoy having my Samsung Galaxy S5. The design is very welcoming, and many of the features add a unique touch to the phone. The only thing that I have a problem with is the speakers and the camera. There could have been more done with the speakers, and I wished that the camera had better focus in low-light areas.
In total, I'm still happy with the S5. It's quick and easy to understand and very helpful for the everyday things I do. Makes my life less difficult.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone changed the way I do most of my things. I'm coming from a different brand and this phone blows them out of the water. I can do things on this that I couldn't on the other. The hardware is the main reason I love this phone. The snapdragon processor is one of the best you can get in a smartphone (in my opinion). All I have to say is when my contact is up, I will buy the next galaxy phone without hesitation.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

My Samsung Galaxy S5

I bought my Samsung Galaxy S5 in September of this year and I love this phone. I had a iphone 4 before this phone and hated ever since I had it. I have a galaxy tab 3, so this was a great addition to that. I really love the way I can see on the screen compared to the iphone screen that I had to squint to see anything and I can get around on this phone so much easier.
I would recommend this phone to others.

A great phone

It's a very nice phone, especially compared to the Galaxy SII (my previous phone). It has fantastic features and functions. I wouldn't say it's superior to the iPhone--in fact, I think they're equally as good. But once you root an Android (which is totally legal; it just depends on what you do with your rooted phone), the Galaxy S5 would be better. Jailbreaking an iPhone is similar to rooting, but it's illegal. After rooting your phone, you can do so many things and you have the freedom to do so many things on your phone. It does get slow and buggy sometimes, though. Although it is very expensive, buying a Galaxy S5 is a great purchase.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, freedom that comes along with rooting, battery life
Cons: speed, bugs
I would recommend this to a friend!

The phone has great features and wonderful graphics

I have been a user of the "other" phone since phones were developed. I found it difficult to switch between the two. Having only a month trial to get used to this phone, I decided that my brain would be better served by going back to the one I was more accustomed to using, however, I have been sorry that I decided to do this--I really enjoyed using the S 5--just found it difficult to adapt to the Windows platform and all of Google's buddies, like Chrome, Gmail, etc.
After filling out the Pros, I'm really wishing I had stuck with this phone longer!! With my present provider, I cannot purchase the "other" phone with greater than 16 GB memory, whereas with the Samsung, memory is upgradable with a memory chip. Have to re-evaluate this decision some more!!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, gorgeous graphics, great camera, lots of rings & sounds, easily upgraded memory
Cons: adapting to windows for me at my age
I would recommend this to a friend!
