    I never thought I would ever switch from IPhone but the Galaxy S5 changed my tune. I'm still getting used to it but so far I don't regret my decision one bit. Love this phone!

    I love this phone. I think the 3 was more durable because I dropped the 5 1st time and it broke. Wait for the 6.

    Though I'm not a tech guy this phone is easy for me to use. My favorite thing is to be able to speak my texts. And to ask google for all my questions. I would like it though if the feature of reading text aloud was offered.

    Was unsure moving from a HTC one but my husband had a galaxy 4 and I really liked his, so when I was ready to upgrade I instantly went to this and I'm so glad I got it. It's so easy to use and love the way I can personalize it the way I want.

    I have a lot to learn about this phone. Believe it or not, I JUST upgraded from a flip phone. The awesome price on Black Friday pushed me into the current age of smartphones. I know I will be learning for quite some time about the many uses of the Galaxy S5. I wish there was a convenient way to learn all there is to know about this phone. My family members each purchased a Galaxy S5 and can't stop raving about it. Two of them are previous iPhone users, and the other upgraded from the Galaxy 3. I purchased my phone from Best Buy over the phone because my order froze while placing it using my computer. The Best Buy customer service rep. was great. He was very helpful and courteous. Overall a good experience, even though it did take a very long time.
