    Upgraded from the S4. So far I love the S5. Minor upgrade overall but the battery life is better. I miss the night mode on the camera and I preferred the old apps list option but overall I am happy with my choice.

    I would recommend the Samsung Galaxy S5 to anyone. I would also proudly say the S5 has more user tools and a all around better overall intraction with its users compared to any of the current Apple IPHONE products.

    Everything about this phone is excellent, except for the speaker. I have missed so many calls due to not hearing the ring. There is a solution however, turn the phone face down. The speaker will be face up at this point and now I am even happy with the one flaw. Not sure why Samsung decided to design the phone this way.

    Love the phone. It has so many features and is easy to use. The sharpness of the screen is more than I expected. Apple's new S6 copied the looks of the Samsung S5 I traded my old smart phone in for the S5 and I also received a $100 Gift card from Best Buy The was free plus a free $100 Gift card How could anyone pass that deal up

    Still learning the features that the s-5 has from the s-3. Many time saving changes and quicker loading time. Battery life is very good. Runs all day and by the end of the day has 65-70 % battery life left.

    Returned phone to Best Buy but bought from Verizon

    At the same time I was being sold Chromecast to use on a new TV I also purchased at the same time, I was strongly advised to replace my 2 year old phone to accommodate Chromecast and associated apps. I was directed to the Samsung counter and the Galaxy S5. I wanted to compare it to a Motorola phone but I wasn't allowed to touch the Motorola. The salesman held it up in front of me and retracted it when I reached to take it. He said he couldn't take a chance on me breaking it. Under duress, I purchased the Galaxy on a lease and left the store. The more I thought about how the transaction was handled, the less I liked it, so I returned it 2 days later. It was an exhausting experience to return it because a mob of employees formed around me to question why I was returning the phone. I gave in and left the store but sat in my car and thought about it and went back in determined to return the phone. I finally was able to complete the transaction and then went to the Verizon Wireless store where they gladly showed me several phones for comparison. I ended up buying, not leasing, the Galaxy S 5 with a 2-year agreement. I've been with Verizon Wireless for 17 years and I'm not concerned about a commitment to them. After being allowed to compare the phone with various models, and receiving great assistance from the Verizon Wireless representative, I am very happy with the phone.
