    This Galaxy 5 replaced the 3 which I had misplaced. I preferred the 6 but it was not quickly available. It has all the features of the 3 and seems to be more stable I like the water-resistant case but do my best to keep it dry. The camera will take a picture when tapped to focus which is very convenient. The call reception is clear and crisp. My only complaint is I haven't figured out how to get it to save frequently used words. Y'all, it doesn't speak southern!

    Bought this phone for my son as upgrade to his galaxy3. He was so impressed with the speed, but more than that, the long battery life. He can work all day and still have battery life left. The resolution is fantastic.
