If you have 3 phones stopped working in 3-4 months, I would think its user problem. If they told you its rooted, you may have been ripped off by the shop that sold it to you. They may have sold you a rooted used phone.

Is it a signature ? S7 is better look, but when I read the term of waterproof, it become drawback, the speakers still functioned just fine once dried off, but with audio permanently muffled and distorted.

          To this day the Galaxy S5 has done me wonders from dropping it washing it throwing it and still... im able to write this post with it. I have however tested and refused many devices such as the apple line of flagships sony flagships lg's google nexus and many more, but i still find the galaxy S5 the overall better phone with a good camera soft on the eyes type screen that does not make you feel like your trippin on acid every time you unlock the device, great performance, cheap to buy, sd card slot, removable battery, removable back incase you want a bit of a change in colour, weather proof, and most of all easy to use one handed and light.
          Other smartphones may have a few higher specs but the whole glass back and front or lack of nfc in some devices or even the lack of weather ceal is something that should always be installed on any device considering the price tags in most smartphones today.
          Today we even have a 4k screen which might look good at first glance but in an ideal world what good will it do you when everything media wise gets compressed when uploaded to the web and therefore the 4k resolution is really just for your personal use when replaying a video you have taken yourself and watching it on your phone or on your tv if you can afford one in 4k.
          So that brings me to the conclusion of this view. If your looking for a cheap smartphone that can do you proud for many more years to come the Galaxy S5 has it all.

                    Do not buy Samsung phones! I had a Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5 and Note 4. All of them stopped functioning within 3-4 months each time, and the customer service did not even fix one of them claiming that it was rooted even though it was not. Do not use their products!

                                The S5-G900H doesn't support LTE. Maybe that's the version S5 you used the TELUS card in.

                                  The phone from China is often the fake product. There is a big Samsung's factory in Vietnam.

                                      The phones may look nice, but Samsung's services and policies are made to not help you fix your phone so that you buy a new one, take my advice and either go with Google's Nexus or Apple's iPhone, save yourself the trouble and money if you accidentally break it in any way. Their emergency recovery also is not compatible on half of their phones and even their LTE services do not work correctly. My Samsung had a TELUS LTE card and would only give me 3G, when i took it out and put it into the iPhone 5 which is already an old model it worked perfectly with no problem. Again, save yourself the headache and extra money, buy from a trust worthy company who will help you if it breaks.
