    Was unsure about Verizon's new data plans, but so far so good. The only thing I don't like is the edge plan only offers 2 GB. 3 GB would definitely be beter. Best Buy was helpful and answered all my questions and I'm very happy with my purchase.

    Sometimes the download slows to a crawl. It might just be Yahoo. The phone is a bit large, but its performance is awesome. The charger port cover is a pain in the butt to open. The speakerphone sound quality sucks for whoever you are talking to.

    Love this phone. I upgraded from the S3, which I loved, and this one is so much faster. I'm amazed with all the features. So much more than a phone.

    I would recommend this phone to any man. It is larger than the iPhones and gives you all the necessities that you will ever need with a phone. The camera is much better than the iPhone camera as well. You wont be disappointed in the least.

    Just today every time I tried to text it called the person. I turned it off and back on and it was ok. I hope this doesn't keep up. Also I don't understand why when I'm texting sometimes, instead of the letter appearing, the symbol above the letter does. I hope this is not a malfunction either. For the most part I'm satisfied. I just hope these glitches clear up.

    I love the phone. The only two problems I've noticed are the fluctuating battery life. Sometimes it will last one day sometimes Two. The other issue is I'm left handed and my voice sounds muffled when I hold the phone in my left hand.

    The Galaxy S5 is a great phone and performs all the functions you'd expect from a modern smartphone. Quick response times and plenty of internal storage. Most of the battery life is gone in about 12 hours, but only takes 1 hr to fully charge up again, so not so bad as with early models.

    Best thing he got this year! Brought him up to the modern world! His flip phone was so antiquated. He loves all the "gadgets" and modern technology. Learning something new everyday!

    the phone is good and has a lot of great functions and apps. the phone is almost too large but works well and the large screen is bright and crisp. the battery life is just average, must charge it everyday as it wont last the whole day if you use it regularly, as I use it for work and it will get down to 20% before I make it home. I am enjoying my new phone!

    A great improvement over my Droid 4. Battery life is amazing an the screen is large enough that I can see it without my glasses and yet it still fits easily into my pocket or purse.
