Root it, install recovery, download Cyanogenmod, download GApps, flash everything and then... Such a beautiful combination...

    Not bad. its good even when updated to lollipop, you just need to install 360 antivirus and du baterry saver. That will change everyone's perception

      DO NOT UPDATE TO LOLLIPOP, it will drain your battery in a matter of hours. From 2-3 days now it cannot stay on until getting back from work, so 10-12 hours maximum.

But I newer had problems with battery, it usually ended a day with 30% or so. For comparison, now I have sony Z3C which has much bigger battery, and this phone usually end a day with 40% of same usage, so quite good result for s5mini with much smaller battery. But this was my case.

                              Anonymous, 22 Apr 2016Are you sure this phone drain the battery 20%/hour¿¿ mine drain 10-12%/hour. a... moreI managed to get a full refund and now got an HTC one mini 2 -- outstanding (then again ANY phone would be outstanding compared to S5 mini).
                              If the S5 was fully charged, while off and left off after an hour the phone would be warm and down to around 80%, when on but not in use it drained at the same speed and got quite hot. I made a 15 minute phone call the phone got so hot that I had to hang up and pull the battery out for fear it would explode......remember the service center said the phone was fine!

                                  Aprix, 17 Apr 2016Hello ppl, Im just buying a new phone, to buy Samsung S5 mini or Samsung A5 2015?dont buy s5 mini or a5 2015 you wont get proper updates
                                  s5 snapdragon and exynos is best option it has a tons of features , s7 s7 edge doesn't have the features which the s5 has
                                  I have s5 and a5 2015 , a5 is good but no theme store only theme center with preinstalled 4 themes
                                  its your choice

                                    This phone is worst. It's so lag and bad. I think s4 mini is better
