    I love this phone. I had an android first, then went to the iphone 5 and hated every minute I had it. I couldn't wait to get rid of it. Now I have the Samsung s5 and love it.

    I like the size of the screen. Images are clear and words are easy to see. I like the option of two levels of power saving modes.

    I upgraded my GalaxyS3 to GalaxyS5 and I love the bigger screen and the super speedy charge!!!! I fell in love with the galaxy right away, it's so easy to use and with the S5 there are so many upgrades to fall in love with the galaxy all over again! I highly recommend the GalaxyS5 to anyone and everyone!!!! :)

    It is really hard to beat this phone (unless you're in the market for a phablet). The size is the sweet spot for smart phones; large size for use and not too large to be inconvenient for mobility. Great OS speed and the added bonus of water proof (in case of accidents of course). The Best Buy exclusive Blue color is great. And the Black Friday pricing in 2014 couldn't be better!

    I upgraded from a Galaxy SIII to the Galaxy S5. There are many improvements and upgrades. The phone is fast, uploads quickly, great picture quality and reception. It is not too big for my purse or pocket. I've had it for a little more than a month and have not had any dropped calls during that time.

    I upgraded from a galaxy s3, and I love the s5. The size of this phone is perfect for me and my almost 5 year old for when she wants to play games.

    I enjoy the phone but sometimes the backlight doesn't go out like it should. Other than that the camera takes clear pics and I love the smart remote feature.

    Purchased a new S5, and it is everything it's advertised to be. Many more features than the newer S6. Would definitely recommend this phone!!

    The phone has a large screen which is nice when searching on the internet. Wish my tab wouldn't crash now and again, that would be helpful if it didn't. Not sure if it the fault of my carrier for the phone.

    My previous phone was the S3 and the S5 is a welcome upgrade to that. Faster, better screen resolution, better battery and with Lollipop rolled out the experience is all around a good one.

    I am still learning how to use it. I do like the size of it. I don't like that one whole page is a magazine, you can't remove it. I don't want it on there. I would rather have my pictures.

    The s5 is a great phone. I'm a power user and the battery can go two days before needed a charge after constant use. The screen is big and makes iphones look like toys. Get an s5 if you're thinking about it, you wont regret it. Bestbuys samsung store is great too
