What to expect????????

Another P.O.S. lousy, slow Android device.....once again milled out by the company that has put Apple to shame for how it flushes out it's massproduced garbage every year.........that's what to expect.

Android always has and always will be insecure and slow as molasses up hill in January. Samsung will always be the phone maker that has clearly followed the simple saying of "throw enough shit/mud on the wall and some of it will stick".

Phones should be a standard at 2.5GHz/6GB RAM/NO BLOATWARE, NOT EVERY F'ING PROGRAM SHOULD BE FIRING UP WITH THE PHONE!



Ditch the cellular and remember what it's like to have a conversation!!!

Been w/o a cell for year and a half........LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still quite happy with my S5...and guess what? It's not noticeably slower than the day I bought it! OMG! This goes against everything Hearme0 has been telling us IN ALL CAPS! I'm truly sorry that my phone is working so well, buddy...and I'm ashamed to say that when this one wears out, I'll GET ANOTHER ONE!
