I've Had It on For five Days And Still Am Over 50% Of Battery Power. I Have Made CallS, Sent And Recieved And Sent Messages And Done Some Internet Roaming With It. IT Amazes Me How Little Power It Uses In Ultra Power Saving Mode And Yet How Much You Can Do With. Great Product!!
Pros: Bright display
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overall very good phone. Have issues with some applications (such as the Google play store, messaging, and e-mail) locking up. Had issue one time where I was using the navigation feature and I went to open the phone when I stopped and there was message that I had entered in the unlock password one time incorrectly and the phone was going to reset to factory defaults. I did not enter the unlock password at any time.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: application lockups, device reset

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

TOUCH WHIZ RUINED THIS PHONE. I had heard of this before but didn't really buy into it but now, now i know. First of all explain to me how the iphone 5s with one gig of RAM can multi task smoother, faster, and in general JUST BETTER than my 2 gig RAM GS5?!?! Also the slomo looks pretty rough compared to the iphone 5s and dont even get me started about comparing it to the iphone 6. The screen does look good, water proof is a bonus but when it comes down to it, it feels like im running a technical preview of touch whiz. Heck i bet the beta of android 5.0 runs smoother than the "polished new TW". Then there's the camera. In bright light and colorful environments this thing looks great, especially on its IPS display but as soon as it gets a little darker the pictures start to look like theyre from the iphone 3g. Also the flash causes nonrealisitic color reproduction when compared to the iphone 5s. And u cant forget the BATTERY...it is the one reason why i havent destroyed this phone with a hammer out of frustration from the random lag. IT IS HUGE! it lasts me 2 days on moderate use and not once do i ever tell myself "hey i probably shouldnt watch this because then ill need to charge". It is greatttttttt. Sadly the lag from touchwhiz is still pretty close to outweighing the positives of battery life.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, battery
Cons: Did not meet expectations, camera, touchwhiz
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

From the mouth of a teamiphoner

So I was really scared about this change. I have been with the iphone since the iphone3. I was very comfortable with the phone and features. So why switch? Well I just felt like a change. I will say I love the screen, the camera and some of the features are just awesome. Its so easy to personalize my ringtones ( which i love ) where as with the iphone it was just a tedious process. I will say i miss very small features. Like being able to display the name of the person texting me with out the message preview. ( if there is a way to do this please let me know). All in all I am falling in love with my phone daily.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, camera
