Many appreciate its water resistance and the range of features it offers. However, some users express dissatisfaction with the pre-installed apps and the charging port cover. The phone's positive aspects appear to outweigh the negative for most customers.

    I traded in my S4 for this phone and in hindsight, I wish I had kept my S4. Honestly, aside from the fingerprint scanner and heartbeat monitor, which I never use, I don't see that much difference between the two models. If someone had been coming from an iPhone, there might be a "wow" factor involved but not really one for me. It's a nice phone though.

    The phone itself is great. The only problem is the battery does not last long. The charger on the other hand charges the phone super fast. I have this phone for over a year now. Its still operating even though I dropped it so many times. I would recommend getting a phone case because it protects the screen from cracking and it keeps your phone in a good condition. You might have to buy a extra charging wire because the wire will come apart. I put electric tape around mine and it holds up.

    This is my first time using an android from a long time iPhone user. I cannot say I am entirely pleased with it. Within two weeks of having the phone, the microphone began to not work during phone calls. At 20 days it completely stopped working. Other than that the phone is not bad- larger than I am used to, a little more complex to use. Great phone honestly but I will most likely go back to iPhone for my next upgrade.

    I like the phone and will love it once I get all the bugs worked out. I did not know that IPhone holds your number for text messages so I don't get messages from friends who still have an IPhone. Also didn't think about the new phone not being on the list for bluetooth in my vehicle. I miss that feature. I hope that it can be fixed someday.
