Upgrade from S 3 - good but annoying

Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone (5-inch display, 16GB of memory, Android 5) charcoal-black (Wireless Phone)

Customer Review

I come from a S 3, which has accompanied me 2 1/2 years. For my new phone I had actually already flirted with a switch to a Win 8.1 device from Nokia. With this system, I have come through a Microsoft Surface in touch and we like actually better than Android me. The handling is very elegant and not so wide selection of apps does not bother me. The important apps are available at Win and that's enough to me.

Now however, there was a cashback offer and so I became weak again and have the S ordered 5. Außnahmsweise not here, but from another dealer, where it was to have for 399.00 EUR. Minus. the 100 for cashback and the sale of S 3 was the Ugrade then very inexpensive.

The new is again greater, actually almost too large. Reading it is an advantage, but many shirt pockets and those in the pants somehow not grow with, so that the daily take-away is difficult.

Above all everything is much faster than the S 3, the better processor has a positive effect. All hits and there is little more the many commemorative seconds when launching applications. Even surfing the net proceeds noticeably snappier.

Revolutionary new features I can not find, in essence it is the same system halt just now in Quick.

What is still an annoyance that many garbage apps with which Samsung users bugging. Some stuff can not even take off and every app sucks sometime with updates. Here I would like to see a slender virgin system, in which I myself determine which programs come on it.

What I miss in contrast to S 3, is the FM Radio. Here I was surprised, because I use the as of yet and.

Does anyone know because a solution to whatever data connections Radio to hear?

Something pretentious is the alleged leaks. The socket for charging is provided with a fiddly flap that one out fumble at each store, and then must go to fumble again. Now one does not throw his cell phone so every other day in the toilet or go swimming with it, but have for years engaged in twice with this part every day.

Overall a good phone, but what annoys with some superfluous. I vacillate 3-4 stars, forgive according to the motto - in doubt for the accused - just 4 stars.
