    Updated android operating system - and the standard battery lasts about twice as long as the one in the Galaxy S3 did.

    I was undecided about whether I should get the iPhone or the Galaxy. I couldn't be happier with my choice! The display is amazing, the battery life is awesome, and the camera is phenomenal. My only complaint is that it's difficult to change the setting on the camera, specifically when trying to adjust for different lighting.

    Switching From Apple

    This is the first time I haven't purchased an apple product. It is much faster, has better call quality, and I can still get all of the apps I had on the iphone plus samsung apps. I also just purchased the gear 2 watch. Since the phone is HUGE, it is great to get calls and messages on the watch. I would not recommend the otter box case, I really had no choice since Lifeproof isn't out yet. Dust and dirt get inside the case. The case also adds bulk to an already big phone.

    My last phone was a Motorola Razr M. I liked it but too often had to back out of something to use another program. With the Samsung I can have multiple programs open and switch back and forth.

    I'm not one that handles change all that well, but this new s5 was similar to my old phone, and easy to adapt to.

    I find this to be an excellent phone, its current battery actually lasts longer than I expected, but I've lost some important functions, clock and weather, and have no idea how to get them back!

    I love The love phone, it is very fast, I play a lot of games and it really is quite a bit faster then my other phone. It is big enough to watch videos, but is not too big and cumbersome... Love it!!!

    I had a Galaxy S4 and loved it. 'It took a lickin' & kept on ticking!' I was so excited when the Galaxy S6 was coming out until I heard it was unibody & surrounded by glass-doubily stupid idea. This made it fragile & I couldn't exchange batteries. I did a lot of research on the internet & when it was time for my upgrade, I decided on the Galaxy S5. I've had it for about a month & it is working to expectations. I love it. Cool color & textured backing.

    I decided to trade in my iPhone for the samsung galaxy S5 and I couldn't be any happier. I loved the simplicity of the iPhone, but the galaxy has so much more to offer! The battery life is amazing, it has a great camera, and all the customization one could think of. You won't be disappointed in this phone!
