Phone is excellent. Battery life is so much better than my S 4 was. Did have an issue with the charger that came with the phone but this was resolved immediately.

I shopped extensively and found that all S5's are not created equally. This specific model has all bands necessary for AT&T network. Transitioned flawlessly from my S3. Just switch SIM from old phone to new and re-login to all accounts.

I bought this little over a month ago and so far I am thrilled with this sleek and elegantly designed smartphone! I previously had the s3 which I was seriously attached to after thinking I would never leave the iPhone's side, but Samsung's latest releases are pleasing me entirely :) I love that the...

A technological tour de force, the Galaxy S5 is Samsung's best smartphone to date.

Industry-leading performance; Gorgeous HD screen is best on the market; Fingerprint scanner works flawlessly; Excellent camera with huge range of features; Impressive battery life, and battery saving mode

Design feels dated with little change in two years; Rear cover and fake chrome bezel will not appear to everyone; Heart rate monitor seems to have little use

Samsung has a reputation to maintain - has it succeeded with its latest flagship, the Galaxy S5?

Excellent screen; Capable camera; Great battery life becomes excellent with Ultra Power Saving mode; Plenty of power and storage,Water resistant; S Health suite

Ugly design; Mediocre speaker; Poor fingerprint scanner implementation

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is likely to be one of the best selling devices of 2014. It is the successor to the incredibly successful Galaxy S4 that, despite the attempts of HTC, Sony Mobile and LG, sold by the truckload.

Great display; good camera performance; fast connectivity; software makes good use of larger display; reasonable battery life

Plastic build; navigation of the user interface feels slower than it should be

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is a great phone, and while it is not a huge re-imagining of the firm's flagship model, the tweaks and additions that Samsung has made make a huge difference.

Fantastic screen; smooth performance; latest version of Android; Touchwiz is huge improvement; great camera; good battery life; fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor are worthwhile additions

Touchwiz can feel overbearing in places; lacks a premium feel; Nothing

The basics The Samsung Galaxy S5, the latest and greatest flagship phone from the South Korean electronics giant, is finally here, and it takes the place of last year's tip-top Galaxy S4.

If we say the Samsung Galaxy S5 provides little in the way of surprise, that's not meant as a backhanded compliment...we think; This is the light heavyweight phone you'd expect; It rings up at just 145g on the scales, but still feels sturdy, with a design that's very familiar by this point - so...

Samsung's not afraid to cram in all manner of different features into its phones; and while we've seen that in the past with shedloads of software smarts that are questionable in their practicality (EyeTracking; anyone?

The Samsung Galaxy S5 I have been using the Samsung Galaxy range of phones for quite a few years now. I started with the Galaxy Ace, then I got the S3 and now I am using the S5. Before I got the S5, I temporarily got a windows phone and although the phone was good, I was unhappy with the difference...

Excellent Camera

None

Lovely phone... very easy to use. Not a great deal different to the S4. However the S5 doesn't overheat like the S4 did. Battery life is fairly good.
