Many appreciate its water resistance and the range of features it offers. However, some users express dissatisfaction with the pre-installed apps and the charging port cover. The phone's positive aspects appear to outweigh the negative for most customers.

    Overall the phone has a great display but have to put up with a larger phone to get it. The phone is not very durable and the screen could break if dropped. I have just had the phone one month.

    If you have a earlier version of a Samsung Galaxy Phone then you will love this new updated version. It is awesome from color, to features. It is better than I expected. I couldn't be happier!!!

    Excellent phone! Great graphics, sound, fast and long lasting battery. The only con for me is having to open and close the cover, every time I need to charge the phone. But overall, 5 stars!

    The phones are everything I wanted and more. Bought them for my gf and I and we both love them. Battery lasts for forever and very nice video and sound quality. Galaxy S5 is the way to go.

    I bought this phone for my wife when she decided to leave apple. I have always been an iPhone guy when it comes to smartphones so this was a bad choice in my opinion. The more I play with it, the better I feel about it. I can honestly say it's just as good as my iPhone.

    Purchased the Galaxy S5 for my husband at the unbelievable Black Friday promo price of $1. This was an upgrade from his Galaxy 3. He loves the phone. The size is a bit much for the convenience of sticking it in his pocket. The Samsung phones have been much better products than the iPhones that our son and daughter owned. Less problems and many more pluses. Purchasing the Galaxy S5 from Best Buy was efficient and easy, and we had the phone shipped and in our hands in a couple of days. Good job Best Buy.
