I bought it again

I loved the S5 from the time I purchased it. My first one was damaged and I went to an iPhone 5s that we had at the house. There was no comparison. The modifications and apps I was able to download on the second phone made me love it even more than the original. I don't see myself ever going back to the iPhone. I am looking forward to the s7.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers
Cons: nothing really.

I was an apple user. Once started using Android i got in love with it.
The thing starts from here the samsung galaxy s5 has very good screen display.
Even if you use it at night you can reduce the brightness and it can't harm your eyes. The performance is awesome. Even though sometimes the phone stops suddenly but i want to say all the users that every phone has some processes which make them slow. Not everytime but yeah it happens. The quality is good , the camera is the thing you can capture all of your moments. As the front camera is not so good at night but the thing is that front camera is not like rear one. In the day you can capture selfies as beautifully as you think. Even if it has just 2.1 mp it make it pretty good. You can exactly know about your health. You don't need fitness watches it counts your steps daily workout goals everything. The sensor is absolutely amazing. It has great features in overall. But every phones have some bad things it just common as in s5 the phone heats up fast and it stops suddenly, battery drains a bit fast a little bit. But you can fix the battery by using ultra power saving mode and that is absolutely helpful. In lived in a poor country before where the lights went out and it helped me so much it is absolutely amazing.
So in overall the phone is good there is no question. It has some issues but every phone has that issue.But i need to say that the earphone style is not good. It does not stick in your ear.

GS5 - Great before OS update
on August 21, 2015

I've had the Galaxy S5 for little over 2 years now. I got it the first week it was available from my provider. I loved it, it was a huge upgrade from GS3 I had at the time. That is until the Lollipop update came out a few months ago.. Now it is EXTREMELY slow, very buggy, and now doesn't have the storage available for my apps. Starting to get down on Samsung because of it and have had Samsung for somewhere around 10 years and have loved them. All in all if I could get the issues fixed I'd probably still be a Samsung customer for life.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable
Cons: os problems
