    Bigger better screen than my last galaxy.and the updated OS is much easier to navigate. There is some app pushing that needs to be monitored to make sure your processor is unduly taxed.

    The s5 is already a great phone but this electric blue color makes it even better. The color looks even better in person. My favorite part of this phone is I can transfer my pics on my samsung camera to it in less than a min. Its very convenient for those like me who always carry a camera to take pics of their kids and share them instantly. Ive already recommended it to my friend.

    This is a good phone. There are few things I do not like though. Having paid over $600 for my device I still have to deal with a locked bootloader. Not happy about that.

    The S 5 does everything I need it to do and then some. The increase in size is minimal to my S 3 and quickly adaptable. I would recommend it over any phone on the market today.

    What is not to like about this phone!? I did a thorough research of smartphones and im so glad I went with the galaxy s5. Incredible fast speed. Quad core 2.5GHz with the new snapdragon 801 processor. For you who dont know the details it means its a beast! Im impressed with the batterry life as well. The only way to drain it quick is if you leave it on max display brightness and use it all day long. Comes with USB 3.0 which is a plus!! Hands down best phone ive ever had!
