    Great first smart phone for him. He is having issues with sending and or receiving texts with pictures even when data/wifi is turned on. Will be taking it into Best Buy to see if a setting needs to be changed. But all in all its a great phone

    Love my phone. Couldn't decide between an Apple or this phone. After reading a lot of reviews I decided on the Galaxy S5.

    MY previous phone was just that a phone. After being encouraged by both of my children and receiving the Galaxy 5 as a Christmas gift, I am glad that I made the move.

    I upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S II to the Galaxy S 5 and wow, I love this new phone. Samsung Galaxy phones are reliable, well made and easy to use. I am pleased with this purchase and the blue color of the phone is my favorite.

    Loving the Samsung 5S. A couple of my favorite features are the health app and the safety function where you can discreetly send an .SOS message to designated person.

    I like the phone itself. I wish it included a stylus pen of some sort. I really like the camera. I wish it had an option to go back to the s4 buyton functions. Or at least a program that undetstands what s4 users are trying to do to explain what to do next. If your trying to open a certain program. I like at&t's message center where it collects all messages in one folder. Calls voicemails ,email's ,texts. The phone should have that program . Anyway I hope the next model has more buttons. Great product. Ex iphone user. Staying with galaxy. thanks samsung.

    My phones are great but the sales person lied to me about the next program said it would only cost 2.00 per phone per bill they cost 27.00 per phone so I'm not happy

    You can do many things on it. I switched from the iPhone and I deffinetly like it a lot better. Even though it's a bigger screen than iphone. You can still get the same apps and the Google apps do help and I like the chrome better than safari on iPhone. Still haven't finished exploring through it completely but deffinetly like the sensors so I don't really need to press buttons if I don't want to

    I gave it 4 stars because I have had many smart phones and been rough on them and never cracked a screen I had this one for a month and it's cracked...I even got the glass screen protector. I don't recall dropping this one either.

    Took 1 star off for new update not working well with Comcast. Net email. Don't know who is at fault, but it worked before the update. I now have to use xfinity connect app.
