Even GSMArena sees it as the best looking of all the Galaxy S before it. You should consider that it has waterproofing which is why it has more bezels than the S4. Nevertheless, the back of the S5 looks better than all the other Samsung smartphones in my view. The camera with the flash and heart rate sensor right below it gives it a nice look. Even another commenter said that the flash/heart rate sensor combo looks more classy with it below the camera compared to the S6 having it at the side of the camera. All in all I have no problem with the S5.

I have s5, i had this phone since jan 2015. So far i havent experience any problems with it. I even soaked it under water 3 times when we had swimming party. I like the lollipop update, its performance had improved and the new ui was quite amazing.

It is supposed to be waterproof. I used it in the rain during a GPS hike. I used an umbrella, but still, the S 5 got a bit wet because my hands and everything was a bit wet. I had to dry my fingers and the screen each time I had to type in new gps coordinates. After a while the S 5 went crazy, flickering and no longer reacting and I could not use it anymore. Others tried to call me, but no call came through. After some hours in my pocket and a restart, the S 5 worked again, but even deep inside the menu things were changed, like the time settings from 24 H to AM/PM. This was a bad water test, just a bit of rain and the S 5 went crazy and stopped alltogether.
