I'm not sure if I like this phone yet or not, I heard that the pictures were great, I'm not a fan so far, the pictures are ok, not great and that horrible noise it makes when you take a picture, not needed.
Sorry I wished I had more to say, just not sure yet.
Thanks
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Poor quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is pretty difficult to use Japanese language. Does not change correct Kanji character, does not learn what I type before. I do not recommend to my Japanese friend.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

awesome phone, but MMS problems.

I absolutely love this phone, as it's super fast, has great features, and does almost everything I want/need. My only problem has been with MMS messaging, which, according to Samsung, and everyone else I've talked to, is a carrier issue. I have Straighttalk, and have spent several hours on the phone with them, doing a factory reset, and all kinds of stuff, to no avail. I still can't send or receive MMS texts, and am very unhappy about it, as that's the majority of my texting. Anyway, short of this issue, the phone is wonderful.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product has poor sound quality on phone and speaker it reacts poorly to rain

This phone is on par with the competition and for internet use exceeds the competition. I have been unable to find a smart phone that works good as a basic phone. The speaker phones are terrible and people are always saying they can't here me properly. The biggest annoyance is that when you get a message on lock screen or phone call and view them it still shows that you have not checked them and requires a second effort to go into messaging and phone to show that you know longer have a message.
If you need a phone for business use or need it to not go crazy when the screen gets a water spot (rain- trying to answer the phone after doing dishes or showering) better skip this phone and go to the S6 active. The S6 works when it gets a water spot on it but does still have the annoying problem of pocket dialing people like the S5 if the screen is facing your body. So my best advice is make sure you put your Samsung phones in you pocket screen facing out. The advantage of the S5 over the S6 is you can remove the battery and charge it so when your battery no longer charges, generally when the charging port fails (common) you can buy an external charger and battery.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, removable rechargable battery
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
