    I bought this phone for my wife and myself as a way to better keep in touch. Being in the military, its important to me to have a fast phone with great display and a great camera so i feel closer to home with my wife and newborn son. It's a study reliable phone and can handle anything you throw at it.

    Not much different from my S4. Only upgraded because the motherboard had problems reading the SIM card in the S4. Slightly larger than the S4. Same basic functions.

    I've owned the S3 and S4. They were great phones and this is even better. Call quality/sound very good. The camera has alot of neat features and photos are great. A very nice phone and a little extra screen is a nice upgrade.

    I love the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active I enjoy it's features much more than my old iPhone 5. The only issue is their is a small triangle shaped defect in the gorilla glass on the upper right side of my phone. I took the phone to Best Buy and the girl at the cell phone kiosk, just buffed it out and said it was good. The mark comes back same size and shape everday. I clean it and it goes away for a while then comes back. Not worth the hassle to return phone so I just deal with it. Best Buy was awesome when I ordered online and I highly recommend them for your cell phone needs.

    Overall I am very satisfied with this phone-its design is sleek and it functions rather well. My only gripe is all the bloatware it came loaded with-- all these unnecessary apps that I don't even use. Also, the camera is pretty sharp but as a right-handed person taking pictures is kind of awkward given the location of the "shoot" button. All in all, this is a solid phone.

    It is a good phone overall and it is taking some time to get use to. The phone has good battery life. The front and back camera is also pretty good. I like that the phone has a removable memory. I don't not like the speakerphone feature because it doesn't pick up sound well and can be easily covered.
