For years, I use various private mobile phone models from Samsung and so it was clear that I am currently switched mini on the right new Galaxy S5. On a phone that could inspire quite. The look and feel are a Plastikbomber really good, the display I find simply superb in presentation, the size for me perfectly and also the operability is awesome intuitive. From this performance seen the smartphone could get quite 5 stars from me. But now the big but: The S5 mini freezes well with me during the operation several times, and is also often crashed completely (even if it was just not served). With such a crash then helps only that smartphone pröpeln from the protection cover, down the battery cover, take out the battery and put everything back together in reverse order. The whole thing is not only extremely annoying, it is fatal when the crash took place at night and thus the alarm clock in the morning does not ring. Since both have been reported here and in various forums by several users of the problem, it can not be an isolated incident ...
My conclusion: I use professional Apple devices (Tab and Smartphone) and unfortunately I have to say: problem free. No freezing, no crashes. Apple runs and runs, Samsung no longer. Too bad, I liked Samsung previously, solely on the basis of better to wide price levels ...
Update on 04/02/2015:
After I tell the S5 mini last weekend and write 3 x crashed, I reduce my rating of 2 on 1 star. It seems to be getting worse ?!
One thing is also new occurred: If one uses the preinstalled Flashlight App, the LED goes on though, can be partly but not off again. Even turning off the phones is useless. Again, only helps: battery out and reassemble it and restart ...
Also, this seems to be an error that occurs when many users. At the weekend had an acquaintance there on his phone also ...
Supplementary Conclusion: Love Samsung developer, you must urgently times make your job and bring -As damals- products to market that are at least largely bug-free! In the hope that soon makes an update to stable running behavior, it remains at a Star!
Update 15/04/2015:
I was almost thrilled! I had since mid-March no problems with this phone! Coincidence? No Idea! Maybe! A change I had in fact made: I had the Samsung Fitness App disabled. Lo and behold, it worked just fine.
Since last week, then the sporting ambition has me because of the nice weather again packed and I wanted to do with the running back. So S Health afloat reactivated. And no two days later again the first crash.
It may be a coincidence but I watch it once more ...
