Samsung Galaxy S5 - user opinions and reviews

I've taken my entire family of 4 phones to S5s since I left Sprint and went to T-Mobile.
I chose these because the S6, (which was the phone at the time) had a permanent battery that couldn't be changed, and a wrap around screen that couldn't be protected. My wife's S5 is on it's third battery and they only cost 7 bucks factory at Amazon. She uses it for everything. Mine is still on it's first battery because I don't.
They are great phones and the only "improvement" with the new phones is in the camera sections that the S5 already had. And a wrap around screen that nothing can protect.
I have 4 of these running since the S6, all referbs, and we've only broken one. I keep two extras. The last one I bought was 123 bucks and preinstalled with Marshmallow. Nice.

Bought it end of April last year, still no problems. It was 2 years old but with a new battery. Only the screen flickers at very low brightness when it's cold, but I can live with that. Apart from that, it's as good as new. More than 130 apps inside, no problem. I just clean it sometimes and don't use heavy apps or battery-heating games, but I do use it a lot. I can't believe it's already 10 months.

ALI, 30 Jan 2018how can i unable volte in this phone?in order to activate or get the VOLT on it you will need a custom ROM, and a custom KERNEL to go with it, you can look it up in the XDA FORUM for S5 ... its a bit advanced but you will be totally satisfied after even with the system option that is very similar to the S8 with nougat + you will get some battery life and the VOLT Option as well

Anonymous, 05 Jan 2018Front camera is just bad :'(( plus it cant focus in the low light concentration 😑 ... moreYes the front camera on the S5 is a let down, its 2Mp compared to primary camera which is 16MP. I'd suggest getting the A5 which is only slightly more, it has 16MP on both front and back.
