    This phone can do so much that I am sure I have barely scratched the surface. There are a few operational aspects that are counter-intuitive (in my opinion), but I was able to adapt fairly well. I switched from an iPhone and I will not likely go back. Maybe the best feature is the removable battery, but I have only needed to switch batteries a few times because this phone does not "run dry" very often.

    I switched from the iPhone 4 to this phone and there's a HUGE difference! First off I can actually see the screen and the keyboard is a lot bigger!

    I thought the Galaxy S5 would take spectacular pictures. I am disappointed. I am also disappointed that all of a sudden the volume when talking to someone does not work. For the most part I cannot understand conversations because it is too loud, almost as loud as if it were on speaker.

    So far I am really enjoying this phone. I love the larger screen and apps. I have been able to get all the apps I had on my iphone. I like the fact that this phone is already waterproof so I don't have to use the bulky case. It take a little getting use to but so far I am happy with my switch.
