    I am a big Samsung fan. This phone is the best. Can expand memory by adding a minitial memory card. Phone is everything I expected and more. This is the 2nd galaxy I've owned and lovery it.

    I have had the Samsung Galaxy S5 now for 3 weeks and I am very happy with my purchase. This is my second smart phone, first being a IPhone 4. The Iphone was a good phone had it for almost 3 1/2 years. I grew bored with the IOS and wanted to try something different with my upgrade. First impressions on the new galaxy was the impressive display, very nice. Screen is good size to watch movies on in your down time. The phone is extremely light weight for its size. Dust, shock, and water resistant is a must for me and Samsung claims it's tough only time will tell. I liked the feel of the material on the back side of the iPhone better than the samsung. Samsung feels like cheap plastic. Camera takes very impressive pictures. My mother'a new 200 dollar cannon digital camera don't take as good of a picture as the Samsung with ideal light conditions. The only draw back is in low light conditions the pictures are too dark. Heart rate monitor is a joke on this phone and the finger print sensor takes pratice to get right. Overall the Samsung galaxy S5 meets or exceeds my expectations in a smart phone.

    I had an upgrade with Verizon and then phone was on sale for $1.00. So once I purchased I received my phone by the next day. Setup and activation was simple.

    I am glad that I upgraded to this phone. I had an S4 and I was not as happy. I am glad that there is longer battery life on this phone and I love it. Thanks

    This phone has exceeded my expectations on many levels. Converting from a Motorola Droid to the S5 was a no brain move. Great phone with awesome features.

    I upgraded from the Galaxy S4 to the S5. It was overall a minor upgrade, but the added features and not having to relearn a phone, makes it a wise choice.

    "Upgraded" to this from a Galaxy S4, completely underwhelmed. A lot of the button orientations from the S3 and S4 have been changed in the S5 and there's no way to change them without rooting the device, which ultimately (for me) makes the phone more difficult to use because of the extra menus or steps I have to go through to get to some screens. That said, it does run faster, doesn't seem to overheat as much as the S4 and has an excellent battery life, just annoying for me to use. Overall doesn't feel like a worthwhile switch with how disappointed I was with the device usage, since changing phones locked me back into a 2-year contract when I was originally on month-to-month.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Replaced a two year old Droid RAZR that was acting wonky with the Galaxy S5 about a month ago. So far, really happy. It's quick and snappy when using it. Connects to Bluetooth in the car and the networks at home quickly. Google Maps works for the duration of an entire 30 minute trip without the phone rebooting. I get a full day on an overnight charge. It acts as a pedometer, too, which is neat, as long as I remember to put it in my pocket. GPS syncs quickly, which I've never had happen in previous phones. I find myself doing more things with this phone, because it makes it easy to do stuff.
