1 month review of the S5 from an Apple guy......

Probably not. My technology ecosystem is set up for Apple. Plus, not being able to EASILY send anyone in my family videos via text message is a show stopper for me. While the hardware of the phone is way better than my iPhone 5 was (can't speak about the 6) the UI and software, in my personal opinion, is garbage. I while bide my remaining time with the S5 and return to the Apple mothership following the end of my contract with Samsung. Lol.

Your comment is also funny to me, "die hard Android fan." I don't ever want to hear you can me a fanboi.

Not a fanboy as much as I am a realistic consumer who loves electronics and actually researches devices and talk to ppl about them to see what's the experience like if I can't spend enough time with a device myself.

I've only pointed out the obvious, nothing I've stated has been opinion based, but actual fact about the iPhone 6 n 6+. If you enjoy apple products enjoy it. Hell, I'm buying my wife an iPad for Christmas because she enjoys the experience of an iPad over an android based tablet. I myself have enjoyed Samsung products more then others so until I find a product I like better, I'll keep championing the products I enjoy.

Just an update.....

Finally convinced Samsung to take the S5 back and release me from their contract to test the phone. I just can't stand the software. Sorry. I do appreciate the help from those who were cool and not "snobbish".

Back to Apple I go......
 
Well you gave it a shot, Android's not for everyone. Fully 1 in 7 people prefer iOS.

Awesome

I'm actually the opposite. I was a iPhone user since day one in 2007. My entire family is Apple. All computers are Apple. When IOS8 came out I beta tested it and was really disappointed. It's not that much of an upgrade and it's still IOS. after 7 years I was getting bored. I tested out of the GS5 and I have loved it. I have had zero issues and have enjoyed tweaking the phone with launchers and I think I finally have the way I want. I read earlier in this thread about tracking numbers not working in an email? Works for me. I had two this week. One USPS and one UPS. just thought I woud thow that in. Anyway just wanted to add another POV on the subject.
