This S5 has a replaceable battery and uses same size SD & SIM card as my old S4 model.

Terrible battery and the phone over heats

Only problem was the battery was dead, had to charge it then it worked perfectly.

Drained the battery super fast

Battery died with 35%.

The battery drains quickly

The battery also dies a lot quicker

I like that fact that the battery is still accessible and that and SD card and be added

However, it came with a bad battery that has to be replaced already

Poor battery life..

Charger port cover is flimsy and the battery was damaged that's about it

The auto brightness drains the battery so fast that even if I hardly use it, I would have to charge my phone halfway though the day

The battery is trash

The battery was the issue and had swollen quite a bit.

Camera works very well and the model is very fast with a lot of ram, lots of storage, microSD card slot, replaceable battery, and Android lollipop

Last S model with replaceable battery and expandable memory.

Battery dies super fast!Freezes up randomly.

Battery dies super fast!Freezes up randomly.

all of them have broken in similar ways after a period of time, after a couple months people cant seem to hear me as well and the batteries have been very unreliable

November 5 , 2016Phone takes a LONG time to get a full battery like HOURS but battery quickly starts depleting after being unplugged , charger port was very dirty to say this was supposed to be a gently used phone , keep getting notification to update phone even though I've done it several times already when you try to save money buying a phone off

battery dies in 2 hours

but I MUST have a replaceable battery and external storage

However instead of charging a the battery quickly drained down and would not go charge up again

But very poor battery life

Battery was awesome, Reception was awesome, phone was awesome

The phone came with a non compatible charger and the battery is terrible

Damage when i receive it, The battery doesn't charge

Battery went bad very soon after purchase

Scuffing, screen burn in, poor battery, are all things that devalue the product.

My 3 criteria is searching for a phone was replaceable battery & same size SD & SIM cards as my old phone.

The battery was installed and completely dead.

The scuffing is no big deal, but screen burn in and dead battery are.

battery going dead extremely fast.

The battery seems to charge a bit faster than my old iPhone did, but even on days where I barely use my phone, the battery will be critical about 15 hours after being un-plugged from power

The battery to this phone is trash

Durable with a strong battery and updates are as needed

This time I bought my own and I went with the S5 because the battery is easy to replace

Two people there tried that way then took the battery out of the phone many times but the screen was still frozen.

Worst part of the design is the flimsy plastic back (battery) cover: it developed a big crack and needs replacement

However, the battery is pretty drained, I think it is just because the battery is pushing 2 or 3 years without being used

The battery got too hot, the touch screen was overly sensitive, missing sim, device factory numbers were erased and changed to 0000000 - the box had stickers over the original stickers and was dirty

I wish the S6 or S7 Had a replaceable battery and external storage.

The battery is very poor on this one that i bought on supreme deals

Best features of the S5 are the replaceable battery and SD card option for expanding memory

Phone stopped charging, battery goes low immediately and charge port doesn't work

Be careful if you are switching SD cards with the phone powered on, the battery falls out pretty easily without the cover on it.

The battery drains in just a few hours

Good battery life, just a good solid phone.

The battery absolutely sucks

for this model is that there are replacement batteries available, unlike some newer models (I'm told).

Good battery life

Battery dies very quickly

The phone was great..the only complaint I have is the battery that came with it

Drained the battery super fast

The battery is strong, the display is clean and colorful and easy to read

The battery keeps its charge for a fairly decent time period......so far, so good.

It is fast, great battery life, nice looking, great picture quality, and I can download music to my phone without having to 1-pay or 2-hook up to my laptop

No glitches, battery is still strong, like new.

The battery was useless

buyer sent new battery and it still drains the battery.

I didn't want a newer Galaxy as this is the last version with the replaceable battery - and I did buy a new

my gs4 doesn't have this problem, so i know that maybe the battery isn't genuine, but it's ok with me since it still works ok

Much better battery than the one my phone came with.

The battery is not as good as my original Samsung S5 battery which lasted 5 days... this one might make it 16 hrs if I'm lucky.

The battery that comes with it drains extremely fast

The only down side is that the battery is dead by the end of the

Very poor battery life despite all my efforts to minimize apps.

The battery runs out fast when I transit to school in the morning, and the charger that came with it doesn't work very well

Combine all this with a horrendous battery life, and I've never been happier to go back to my cruddy old 2013 HTC phone.

The auto brightness drains the battery so fast that even if I hardly use it, I would have to charge my phone halfway though the day

Good phone and the battery has lasted well (1 year old).

Faulty battery who do I contact for a replacement battery?

I suspect the battery was dead once and was "reconditioned," sealed in a plastic bag, and thrown in this box.

I am considering returning it for a defective battery.

The only problem I've had is the battery

The poor battery wipes out nearly all the rest of the value.

No glitches, battery is still strong, like new.

The phone itself was working but the battery is junk

A lot of the new cell phones do not have replaceable batteries

Phone works great, but battery was bad and barely held a charge

This phone was delivered with a defective battery

Also the new battery does not perform nearly as well as my last new s5 and the charger is a knockoff that after one use will not charge the phone.

There's signs of wear on it now, chipped chrome on the corners and the port cover.so far it has withstood every drop, although getting the commuter otterbox is recommended as they work well and don't add too much thickness

The volume button was broke a the speaker phone isn't that loud

My old AT&T number was switched without a problem

This phone drives me batsh*t crazy on a regular basis.
