Samsung Galaxy S5

I was going to go for the latest and greatest - the S6 (not really thrilled with the Edge design), but after learning about the inability to replace the battery and add an SD card, I went for the S5. I read about all the issues with Lollipop on the S5, but figured I'll stay with KitKat. Unfortunately, I was "forced" to upgrade or at least was unable to find a way to avoid the upgrade.
Anyway, maybe it's because it was new out-of-the-box and the upgrade was done before I started to add apps, but as of now (about 1 month), no issues! Everything is fine. Speed is as expected, battery life is good (getting about 2 days before charging), etc.
So my bottom line is that I'm glad I chose the S5 over the S6.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the phone, but ever since I did the Samsung update on my phone, I hate it! Phone freezes, locks me out, battery gets too warm. I spend more time taking the back off and pulling out the battery them anything else
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
