    I got my new Galaxy S5 the first day it went on sale for Black Friday that Sunday morning. I cannot believe how happy I have been with it! The only thing that is let down is how long it is taking to get the lollipop update.

    I was lured to this phone by the camera. and screen quality but regret it because it's just too big. Pretty unhappy. should have gotten an I phone and a separate camera. Probably more suited to a women who carries a purse. I would trade it if i could.

    Changing phones can be hard but learning how to use my Samsung Galaxy S5 cell phone was been easy. I love that I can use my fingerprint or a password for security.

    I switched from an iPhone and I will never go back. The operating system is much easier to use and it will do more than my old iPhone. I am still finding out new things that it will do after 6 weeks and still love it.

    By far the best phone I have ever owned. If you are currently looking for an upgrade and don't want to pay the hefty prices of the S6, This is the phone for you.

    I'm a dropper so this phone is great for me. It has a tough shell with raised edge around the screen. And it's waterproof! I previously had a Samsung Galaxy 4 so I was use to the set up and I love the Android system.

    Replaced a Samsung Focus (windows based smartphone) with the Galaxie S5. Exceptional piece of equipment. Easy to operate, intuitive, and one of the best telephones for making and receiving calls. Can't say anything bad about it. Nothing has disappointed me yet. Unbelievable battery life. It's really is all its cracked up to be and more.

    I like the larger size and the picture quality. I got it in the gold tone and it really looks rich. I don't care for the sound quality when you use the ear buds but overall It is a great phone.

    The screen is bigger than the GS3, which I enjoy. I also like the newer security features. There is a fingerprint reader to unlock the phone with. The camera takes good pictures for a phone.
