    I love the phone the only flaw is that when you make a three way call you can't just end the conversation with one caller you have to end both calls.

    Galaxy S5 is good, Boost Mobile, not so much. The price is great for the monthly rate, really can't beat it but the service is limited in my area.

    The S 5 is a big improvement from the S3. The only thing that is weird is the quality of the camera. It's clear but different from the S3.

    I was excited to get this phone because of the water resistant. I never got to actually try it out because I only had it less than a week. No one could ever hear me on the phone. When I was on speaker phone I sounded like I was around water.... Very irritating. Maybe it was the phone. I tried 3 differnet phone all the same thing.
