The floating tool box makes it easy to get to my Calendar, Calculator, Camera and take Memos from any screen.
My son and I can share music with a tap with Quick connect.
The size is perfect, making it easy to find in my purse and not to big for my hand.
I can't wait to see what is coming next.

Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to learn and use.
Cons: no split screen but maybe in the 6 ????
I would recommend this to a friend!

The phone performs really well it could handle android without much incident but the camera is horrid it.
it won't take any pics in low light all u see is darkness and that probably because of the water resisting tech. The battery is okay for the best barely use ultra power saving mode takes too long to start up and I don't know why they bothered putting a loud speaker into this it was almost like an after thought

galaxy S5

This was a fantastic phone until the new software Lollipop was launched ahead of time and completely killed the battery power. The number one reason I purchased the Galaxy instead of HTC was the battery longevity, had to hardset my phone back to factory setting and KitKat software to ensure battery life longer than 3 hours. Now it is working fine again. In the future please make sure the new software releases do not affect battery life. Thank you.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I really the Samsung galaxy S5 but what the freakin heck is with the update

I like the Samsung Galaxy S5. Its has great photo quality. Great display and nice speakers. However, there was a recent update, and that update makes absolute no sense. I don't mind the change to the notification bar or that we can see our notifications on the lock screen. I DON'T like the restricted access to data. Before the update, i could easily turn on and off data via a battery saving app. Now i can't do that anymore with the same app. I tried different battery saving apps which all failed to do that task. So now the only way to turn on or turn off data is manually going to settings screen and going to data usage. That process is extremely inconvient compared to tapping a button. I don't want data on all the time since it would cost extra money and data eats up battery life. I want it on when im in the car or located where there is no stable Wi-fi connection and i want to connect to the internet. This part of the update is a set back and is completely pointless. Please fix or remove this part of the update.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: prohibits data access
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just upgraded from 4 to 5S, and I love my new phone. I especially like the fingerprint security feature. I use my phone for everything, so I like that added security. The Galaxy Essentials and Galaxy Gifts is a nice add-on also. SideSync is awesome too.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, built in apps
I would recommend this to a friend!
