I keep finding new things on my S5

I love the handy quick access menus. I find new things I can do with this phone all the time. And Samsung's tips emails are great. Actually the only issue I've found is that the protective case doesn't allow precise control of the volume buttons.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

a Little Glitchy
on August 12, 2014

I personally love my phone and all the features it comes with but when I recently updated to the new OS, it became extremely glitchy. It freezes, starts typing on its own & my Internet blocks out. The Internet issue isn't with my carrier, it's with my phone. It's the only problems I'm having but because of this. I'm not 100% satisfied. I have reset it and nothing. Would give it 5 stars if it didn't do this.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: Too big
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had the Samsung Galany S5 since it came out, and let me tell you it is worth getting. I love the phone so much that I am writing this review on the S5! The phone comes with great features that fit anyone like someone who is in business, someone who just wants to relax, or someone who is very sporty. I would say the one drawback to this phone is Samsungs version of android (TouchWiz,) because it definitely needs a lot of improvement, because it still freezes my phone, and it still slowes my phone down. I'd say that this is still not a major draw back. But the camera is a whole different story! A truly amazing camera, probably one of the best cameras in a smart phone, becaue its pictures are crystal clear with aton of options, followed by a ton of modes. Also the design of the phone is extordinary, because it has more grip than the note 3, and it looks completely stylish! The speed of the phone is very fast in when I am just looking throughout the phone, everything slides through very easily. Finally the features are not gimmiks they are great features that make thw gs5 more powerful. Overall anyone would enjoy this phone, and I truly believe you should buy it because of how great it is!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, heart rate monitor works fantastically!
Cons: touchwiz has frozen my phone and has slowed it
I would recommend this to a friend!

phone has some problems

Expertise:Intermediate
I've had this phone for quite a while now and there are a few problems to mention. My phone seems to be having trouble with gaining signal for calls and can be really slow on 4G LTE at times. But other then that, the phone does what it says it can do. I've drop the phone into the pool and actually salt water at the beach and it is true that the phone can keep working.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: slow 4g lte connection
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
