Hey! So I just upgraded from my s3 to an S5 and am really enjoying it so far. I know everyone's getting their shiny new S6 which is totally cool, I got this brand spanking new phone free and have no regrets, it's great for me.

Sorry if I don't have the lingo down pat, I'm pretty simple (ha ha)

Basically, let's say I google image search "pandas" I get my images of hundreds of pandas just like anyone else but if I want to expand/zoom in on a high Def picture and do my fancy 2 finger expand motion thing I'm just left dead-flat. Nothing happens and I can't figure out how to fix it. Ideas?

Also If I'm looking at a really long page of replies on a forum (for example) and want to scroll to the bottom, it seems on my s3 I used to be able to move through the page really fast (it'd pick up speed the faster I scrolled my finger on the scroll bar) the new phone moves just bit by bit - so, lots of thumb action. It's not unbearable or anything but it could be better. Any help from an expert would be awesome. Thx!
 
In both cases, it's the web browser you're using. Some expand and contract easier, some scroll better. Try different ones - there are a lot of free browsers in the Play Store.
 
Ok it's just the stock one. No way to switch it up with the stock Web browser? Thanks I'm sure that was the help I needed
 
In most browser just tap & hold on a picture and a menu will pop up with different options. Open, save, new tab, etc.

If you are running Lollipop the scrolling needs some kind of momentum. It can be tricky until you get used to it. Start slowly and then speed up.
