The first impression is correct - and confirmed!

At the outset I would like to begin by saying that I have used only the Apple iPhone since now nearly 6 years. Now it was necessary to get a new and Internet-enabled device for my wife, and since the Apple phone not support all networks, came as the next candidate S5 into consideration.

Now there was the exchange of SIM to MicroSIM card diverse organizational problems at the provider, so we could not take control, the Galaxy. A little bit but we have already been dealing with it, and the following must be noted as an intermediate result:

The size (12.95 cm) is impressive compared to the iPhone 5C. The device is only slightly heavier and just as flat as the counterpart. It looks visually very appealing and the display quality of the display is overwhelmingly good. The housing is beautifully designed, the opening and closing the back to insert the battery and the card is easy, the whole makes a very stable and high-quality impression. The S5 comes in a beautifully designed package and has supplied both the headset and the USB cable incl. Power adapter. As usual today, the instructions for use in stamp format and refers to online support. Personally, I'd rather you'd give the user a bit more written documents at hand. But is a matter of taste.

The device loads very quickly - within about 1 hour, it was at 100% load quantity.

For the first impression of the thumb goes up, but it will prove to commissioning what a good piece really can. In a few days I will continue my review.

.... So, now the unit has been running for a few weeks in the daily operation. Compared to the iPhone the many individual settings are first very challenging to understand. Here is much more, almost everything can be adjusted and adapted in many ways. The first is used to and takes a long time, on the other hand this is done by design and increases the fun factor considerably. Those who like to turn on and almost wants to get started right away, which is perhaps better off with the iPhon.

The functions and possibilities are endless - the performance and design are great. Everything goes very fast and seems well thought out and of high quality. After the first Eistellungshype the device works perfectly and is designed simple and user friendly for acclimatization. Also for Android there is a vast number of apps on virtually any topic. The App Store is well done and allows a targeted search for desired content. The camera is great, excellent voice quality and the screen above mentioned class. It is almost inconceivable that anyone who possibilities offered by this device, also can remotely exploit.

In normal use the battery lasts about 3 days, at constant fumbling (and this drive is well known, especially in the first few weeks large) course correspondingly shorter. With regard to the durability and lasting performance of the battery, of course I can not say anything yet. Compared with Apple, I think it is very positive that you as a buyer here has the ability to easily replace the battery if necessary. Overall, I can not say anything negative about the Samsung Galaxy - just a mature good product with infinite possibilities!
