Slick and Smooth

I love the feel, it's not too big nor too small. It's just right. The features are WONDERFUL. So many short cuts and features other phones don't have. My daughter switch to better communicate with her friends, but miss the slick and smooth features Samsung has. She's now back with Samsung.
Pros: Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

No need for anything else!

I was an avid iPhone user for 8 years. I could build you one from parts and then tweak the software to whatever I wanted. I loved iPhone's! Finally the restrictions of Apple os left me without a phone that worked. I researched and decided on the galaxy s5 since I couldn't afford the newly released s6 (i prepay). OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS DEVICE AND ALL THAT IT IS!! It comes out of the box with 20 times the capabilities that an iPhone never even could dream of obtaining even with all the tweaking in the world!!! And this gorilla glass is amazing! IT CAN NOT BE BEAT!!
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, water proof, changeable battery
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am extremely pleased with this phone. When I think my phone is awesome I learn more about it to make it more awesome. I am able to have the most important apps on my phone now with the 16 GB internal space to help serve my community. The colors are so vivid on this phone. It's got great security with the fingerprint reader. Just an amazing phone.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, great security features
I would recommend this to a friend!

From Galaxy S to Galaxy S5!
on March 26, 2016

I very much enjoyed my Galaxy S Vibrant, but with no front camera, no flash, no wireless charging, and no S-view case offered, it was time to upgrade to newer technology. This S5 has all of those features and more! I especially enjoy the larger screen size, the brighter display, and the phone just feels much more solid and substantial. Cons would be the plastic exterior and sometimes, the battery heats up a bit too hot. Also, it is a little pricey, for my budget, and it was only available in white.
After shopping around, I decided to purchase this CPO version directly from Samsung's website. It came with a one-year warranty, the original packaging, and brand new power cord and earbuds. Even the phone itself looked brand new, wrapped completely in clear plastic. What surprised me even more was that a SIM card was included, so I did not have to pay my carrier extra money to purchase one! With such great CPO phones, I will never buy new, again!
I have been using the phone for two days, and it feels like an old friend! All of the buttons are in the same place as my Galaxy S Vibrant, and the headphone jack is the same place, too! It was very easy to set up the home screen and the other screens with various app icons and widgets. I also like the Magazine, which features news articles that are of interest to me. I am still exploring the phone, but thankfully, it is not much different from my previous phone. I am sure this phone will bring me many years of enjoyment, as my Galaxy S Vibrant still works great!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, familiar buttons, familiar os, wireless charging, updated camera
Cons: expensive, plastic instead of metal, sometimes heats up
I would recommend this to a friend!
