The phone's positive aspects appear to outweigh the negative for most customers.

    Love the large screen on this phone. Makes watching videos or video chatting clear. The only issue I had with it was the little cover flap for the charge port on the bottom came off in the first two months.

    I truly hate the iPhone or apple anything. Samsung never disappoints. This is a great phone. The features are awesome. So much better than the iPhone.

    The phone is great for a clutz like me who had broken several phones because it's super rugged. But at the same time time it is also easy to use.

    I currently carry both phones and my galaxy 5 is a better phone. The camera is awesome and I love the fact that it comes with the Zedge app for ringtones. Soon, I will be trading in my I phone for another galaxy 5!

    Feels good to finally have a Galaxy phone once again that's stable. Random bricking, reboots, crashing... not this one... clicking on all cylinders. I haven't even started using the Power Save settings yet. A high quality display that can handle what I throw at it is all I can ask for. Specs are irrelevant if it doesn't mesh with the firmware and software properly.
