1 month screen cracked $750. wasted! Miss u iphone

Aside from the notorious battery life (which so far in today's technology still hasn't developed a device that can exceed every heavy cellphone user's expectations#, this phone is wonderful overall! I'm upgrading from a Galaxy S3 which up to this day is still running great and I had bought my S3 within the first few days it was released 2 years ago. I'm a heavy HEAVY phone user in all aspects #calls, texts, web, etc) so think of it as a compliment that after 2 years of use and abuse on my S3 and I'm still smiling and happy about it's performance. Almost all my gadgets at home are now Samsung. Hopefully my new S5 will live to the same standards that my S3 had. Fingerprint scanner isn't the best and can become an annoyance. I love the Emergency Feature where by pressing the power button 3 times it will send an SOS to the people in your emergency list. 16MP Camera is WONDERFUL but I'm sure it will almost blow any point and shoot camera out of the water once I mess with the manual settings of the camera.

I love the easy naviation. It takes the best pictures. It has so much to offer as a phone

I Love this phone same features of the Galaxy S5 in a HULK built. If you don't care about finger print scanner this will be the best option for you. Especially if you are hard on phones. Physical buttons work better than the original S5

Many were disappointed when this product was revealed and were talking about the cheap plastics. I agree that metal looks more premium but don't count this one out until you touch it and hold it. Battery life has been vastly improved. Camera quality is amazing. Screen is just sooooo clear. Compared to the iphone..... Yes the functions can be simplified and maybe the software could be a little more optimized. Just like comparing Windows VS IOS on your PC

I've had a iPhone since the 2nd generation all the way to the 5 and decided to get this phone due to them not having the the iPhone 6 or the 6 plus in stock for months now and it was the greatest change I ever done in life thus far. The camera is amazing, I got a 32 gb micro sd card inside, its water proof, it has all the same great apps and features that apple has. I feel apple has ripped off a lot of androids features but in return android mades those features even more better than apples.

Bought this for the girlfriend. Its quick and its easy to use. Takes great pictures and has decent battery life. Loaded with a lot of bloatware thanks to ATT and TouchWiz. But other than that, a solid purchase.

have had this for about 5 months and love it. I don't think there is a better phone for the price i paid. I got this when it was $100 minus the $50 reserve reward. So $50 for this phone is amazing! Fast, battery life is surprising pretty good for being a large screen. I've had it on for over 24 hours and still had 20%. I would compare this close to my work iPhone 5s. I think the Samsung S5 is a little better. If only i can get a hang of taking pictures properly... I keep getting blurry pics, but i have 2 kids running around, hard to get that 'good' picture. Just need some practice with settings. CONS: wish it was a little smaller Charger cover, kind of a pain to open. you get used to it though Price is up to $200 now, My wife wants one but not going to pay $200 for it right now. Specially with the new ATT plans, forcing us to lose our 'grandfathered' discounts if we upgrade.

I love this phone! I upgraded from the S4 and am happy I did. The pictures are amazing, the phone is fast, I haven't had any problems with it so far. The S4 I had problems with it freezing and me having to manually restart it. Nothing like that so far with this phone. This is an all around great phone! I would recommend it to everyone who has a smartphone. The size of the phone does take some getting used to, but like I said before I had the S4 so I was already used to a larger phone.

I switched from an iPhone 4 to this Galaxy S5 and I think its a huge jump, I like the featured and the size is just right, I takes getting used to it. It is very fast, quality of picture its phenomenal. However, I wish the battery lasted longer but I can live. Overall I think this was a great buy! Thanks BestBuy!!!

Upgraded from iPhone 4S. Still learning, but so far - I am very glad I made the switch. Thinking about going to some of the classes at the local Samsung Experience Center.

I love everything about this phone. I have no complaints. It's water resistant.

I just got this phone yesterday so I'm still learning all the new features. I upgraded from a Note 2 to S5. The screen is nice and bright and the included battery saving features are nice if low on battery. As usual I also like the customizable features and the fact battery and sd cards can be switched out easily. I just wish Samsung would put micro sd card slot on side of phone like they do with tablets. It isn't like there isn't enough space to do that. It would make switching cards that much easier. I'm not sure that I like the new USB 3.0 yet. It feels like Samsung went back to proprietary cables like it had before and I can't use any of my old micro USB cables I already own and have a ton of. The cable is big and bulky and takes up a lot more room. I took the necessary steps of buying at least 2 more cables from eBay for this phone in the event I lose it or need a cable for car charging. This big cable will not work well on smaller items like mp3 players, so I don't know that USB 3.0 is going to make a huge splash in the electronics world like the micro USB 2.0. It may be faster but not necessarily better. That is about the only thing I would change on the phone.

If you want one of the best screens available get this phone. Battery life and the cameras are pretty remarkable also! The build of the phone is a soft touch plastic, which many complain being very sub-par compared to other flagships. I personally like the galaxy s5's build because it keeps the phone from being bulky and heavy.

this phone was only 1 dollar and it is worth it since it is fast and the display is really nice

bought the phone literally for 1 dollar, and i really like the features and battery life

One of the best phones i've ever purchased. Its light weight, durable, and pretty good looking phone. The phone I had before the S5 was the iPhone 5. I wanted something different and chose the S5. Love the big screen and it is easy to use. Still getting use to android though. One downside to the phone is that the speakers are on the back.

This is a great phone. The plastic build does not bother me at all and I really like the textured back. It makes the phone easy to grip and very comfortable to hold. I'm not sure why so many people want metal phones - they only end up covering them with plastic anyway! This phone has finally allowed me to migrate away from Apple - I have had every iPhone version including the 5S. It was getting harder for me to navigate and see on a 4" screen. This screen is the perfect size and the display is the best on the market. Overall, a great phone and I'm very happy with the purchase!

I purchased Samsung - Galaxy S 5 -Electric Blue from Best Buy few months back from BestBuy with At&T. I only paid $1 down for the phone and it was a good purchase. Best Buy technicians were very knowledgeable and helpful and completed the phone set up in the store and also answered many other questions I had.The smart phone works great and looks lovely too!

The color of this phone is gorgeous! The picture doesn't do it justice! I love my samsung phones. The camera is awesome. It is easy to navigate. iPhone is coming out soon and I have no desire to look at it. I won't go into detail because others have covered it all but I highly recommend!
