                      Note: The front camera performs badly in low light. Trying to take a video in low light with the front camera led to ghosting and mass amounts of blur. The only light amount I could use at night when trying to take a video would make me look like an actual ghost.

                        I have this phone (Snapdragon version) for a good 3 years now and I am very happy with it. I l bough an external battery charger and now I can simply remove the battery and put it inside the external charger, so with an extra batter, you never have to leave this phone plugged in. I am planning to use it until it brakes down someday. It just does everything I need it to do. I am coming from Apple and don't think I will ever go back!

                            Unreliable phone. I had find out that I have no stilus pen only then I had cleaned the phone for the second time. I was promised that the pen is perfectly attached and I will not lose it. Apparently I lost a stilus pen in about a month after the purchase of a phone.

                                  The only problem with this phone is the front facing camera. I have this phone for 2 years now. Still a beast. Maybe I'll replace it when S8 comes out next year

                                    I think that the galaxy S5 is really a useful smartphone with many advantage.
                                    It's really a good phone.
