Indian, 14 Jan 2018Galaxy S5 Main Problem Is Battery, No VO LTE, No Dual Sim N No New Themes ..... Even If U Rep... more1. Of course people will buy it second-hand, it's an old phone and not available as new any more. The phones you mention are 2-3 times more expensive. Pointless argument.
2. Call quality is great, no need for VOLTE. Also, you can talk for free using Skype, Messenger, etc, etc. Voice calls are a secondary function.
3. Themes? It's an old TouchWiz with 4 icons in a row, themes wouldn't make it better. Even if you change the theme, the icons stay - but I got Nova Launcher on sale and don't care about themes. Every icon and every element is the way I want it.
4. Dual SIM? Not many flagships have that, and I don't know anyone who uses that anyway. One phone bill is enough.
5. Battery life? 4-5 hours not enough? Do you live on your phone? If you need more, buy a computer. ;-)

Most phones without a removable battery are no better than location tracking ankle bracelets as they handshake with every cell phone tower they pass. Occasionally, I prefer the peace of mind that having a removable battery provides.

Just replace a new one since S5's advantage is its easily replaceable battery.

Very good phone and features are very good.
Camera quality is also too good and only one thing irritates me that is battery drain problem. its battery life is to short only use for 4 or 6-hour battery drain fully and its needed two times charging in a day.

Don't ever buy Samsung, they have the worst Customer service, when you have a warranty issues, you have to wait and wait send email after email wait 24 to 72 HR for them to contact you. They never do and then you have to start all over. Get a different phone and Tablet because when they stop working after 3 months you have to wait 3 month more just to get it fixed thats if you get lucky.

After Selling My Galaxy S5 I'm Taking My Breathe Easy.......... Phone Is Good If Ur Normal User... Because No Dual Sim, No Vo Lte, Battery Average, Can't Move Applications To Memory Card (Not A Problem), No Themes....... Now I Will Go For Galaxy J7 or Redmi Note 4 or Wait For Redmi 5 or Any New Mobile But Now Using My Old Lumia 640 Which Have Have Better Battery N Better Smothness, Easy To Use ....... I Will Again Say If U Only Want To Try Then Go For Galaxy S5 Second Hand With Less Money (Don't Go For New One) :)
