    I really like this phone better than the iPhone. The graphics are better and the ability to move between programs is much easier.

    I was prepared to love this phone after reading all the news about it, but it has some quirks. The overheating when charging and sometimes when talking to someone for a longer time is not good. I also have problems with being able to find what I need when I go into settings. Somehow the flash for my camera goes on whenever I get a text and no one including Samsun rep has been able to turn it off. It should be easier to access these sorts of features.

    I don't really like this phone at all. I thought I would love something new...larger screen and more light weight and great color, but the battery life goes quickly, no internet service unless I'm home or somewhere that has free WiFi, and lots of apps that you don't know anything about. I really miss my iPhone and wish I had just gotten a new one. Not a good experience for me.

    Nice phone overall. But I did have some problems with it. Some apps suddenly stopped while I was using them, it restarted by it self and the screen would blink at times. Fortunately I bought the protection plan when I got my phone. The technician told me that these problems can be caused by some apps, so they had to reset the phone to the factory version to erased all the content given that some apps can't be erased completely just by uninstalling them. So I lost some pictures and phone numbers that I did not saved in the ad card or my Google account.

    I am 65 and dreaded giving up my old trust flip phone but I took the plunge! Had to decide between the iPhone and the Galaxy and chose the Galaxy because of so many recommendations. I love the phone and I love the Best Buy store where I bought it because they could not have been more patient with me and knowledgeable. It was a great decision and every day I say, "I love my new phone!"

    Samsung's Galaxy phones are really solid, although I wish this was the waterproof feature of the 5. The whole reason for this purchase was a 3 fell into water for literally 3 seconds, and instantly was DOA. That waterproofing would have saved it and avoided this purchase altogether, but at least going forward it is a primary feature of the Galaxy line.

    Went from Iphone 3g to the galaxy. While the camera is very good, the phone n settings are difficult to navigate. The phone itself is large in comparison and I find it awkward to use one handed. Also not compatible with verizon yahoo making it impossible to sync my devices to recieve mail.

    Samsung has finally launched a cell product!

    Overall a very good cell phone and there is noting much I can ask for the type of usage I have (call, surf, music, documents). The only down side I see is for the low battery life, but I guess it is for most of the phones since cell phones have become part of normal life and so the cell phone companies should really think on providing long life batteries as an standrd option with their phones
