Happy with the product overall. Only problem I've had so far is that it occasionally feels very warm and I worry about possible over heating.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight

Galaxy S5 Review
on November 29, 2014
Posted by: KeithR1
Expertise:Intermediate
Overall great phone (and not a bad tablet either)! The only thing that really does not work is finger print recognition, everything else is generally outstanding. The pattern recognition feature makes up for the poor finger print reader and is probably easier to use anyway.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, works well as a mini-tablet.
Cons: finger print reader.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pros: Lightweight
Cons: freezes up

Really Great

Love this phone so much! I have a mac, and I love it, but I really just am not comfortable with iPhones, I prefer this one by far, and recommend it to anyone I know. Its fast, capable and has amazing capabilities. Its a perfect phone except for 3 small shortcomings... One is that the front facing camera (selfie camera) is a little rough, especially in dark lighting- that's one aspect in which an Phone surpasses this samsung. The next shortcoming is that the samsung link software is not available for mac yet, so i have to use my pc for downloaded content, but the safety features of the website are amazing- one time my friend changed the password and forgot what it was and i was able to open my phone using samsung link, which was super great. the last shortcoming is that it doesn't have a ton of storage space and only certain apps upload to the sd card, so i am constantly running out of space and either having to delete things or transfer them to my laptop. Aside from those three small things, this phone is amazing! The camera is superb and its super durable. I just recommend getting the most storage possible because its used up quickly (i got the 16gb and i wish i had gotten more storage). Once again, id like to reiterate that this phone is amazing and id like to apologize for all the errors in this review, I'm in a bit of a rush! Nice job Samsung!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, perfect, easy to maneuver, size is almost never a problem, great battery life, great outward camera, fast
Cons: bad front facing camera, short on storage, no samsung link mac software
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this phone!

I love this phone. Its everything that I thought it would be, and more. Only problem that I have is that I killed the battery. I made the mistake of charging it over night a few times, and now it doesn't hold its charge well. The battery seems a little swollen. But other than that, this phone is awesome. Buy it if you haven't yet!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

The Galaxy S5 is one of the greatest phones I've ever had. I love the speed, the display, and the user interface which is so easy to learn and user friendly. I like the fingerprint screen lock feature to protect my information. I love "OK GOOGLE" as well.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
