I'm so glad i live outside the US, because all bloatware I get from carriers is maybe one small app that basically just directs you to their website. My phones also never get the carrier logo's plastered on the back, and the boot screen remains stock. One thing I'm jealous about is the lack of voice assistant support (especially when talking about Windows Phone and Cortana)...
Pocketnow Hi Michael, I want to ask you about the yellow tinted glasses you are wearing,how does it differ from a normal tint and what are its benefits ??? Thanks
I have the s5 and it tends to shutdown apps when I'm using it. It will say " unfortunately this (name of app) has stopped". Does anyone know why that happens
I like this guy, he's a good reviewer and he adds a little humor to his reviews. Samsung has been releasing WAAAAY too many phones. Why don't they just focus more on their flagship, instead of throwing their energy all over the place.
***** I got to agree, I had Sprint for a week and then gave up on them. I live in Nashville, a pretty major metropolitan city and still didn't have coverage in my house, I had to go outside to make phone calls and even then it was hit and miss. I got T-Mobile now and surprisingly it's worlds better, data speeds are extremely good usually in the 30-40 mbps range. At least that's good to me, maybe Verizon and AT&T is faster, never tried them.
So its not just my regular sprint s5 XD i have all that crap and i cant get rid of it i paid 600$ and an extra 115 a month please let me remove the apps i dont want sprint
*sigh* Another Galaxy S5 phone? Isn't this the umpteenth version in 4 months?!?!😕 This is way Samsung needs to stop making a million S5 variants and just focus on one or two phone models and be done with that.
mike white do your research before commenting, lg g3 regular, lg g3 cat 6, lg g3 vista, lg g3 "mini" and soon to be a lg g3 with a stylus Ya so next time, look shit up before commenting...
Samsung really lost it. They were cool for 15 minutes thanks to those ads two years ago, now, they just love to dilute the exclusivity of their brand. I mean just look at that abysmal phone they just released.
I have had a galaxy and note 3.. too many models and the phones are looking too similar "apple anyone?". I'm moving onto htc.. no wonder Samsung is sinking. To many colors of the same phone with crappy ity bity improvements.. bye bye Samsung.
Listen here sprint no1 likes u I don't appreciate u trying to copy atnt u just mad that attention did a much much much.. ya u get point. Job then you'll ever do. So stop being followers an try being yourself. Iam a reviewer. I am highly upset. I will getting the s5 active. I would literally make a smore of your s5 sport. Sank-u goodbye attention all day

Guys what's the phone on 4:46?
At around 3:22, there's a home button on the left of the top bar in what looks like Chrome, anyone aware of how this is there?
So it is the GS2 all over again? Remember the GS2 Skyrocket and GS2 Epic 4G Touch? How many phones Samsung should release?
Love the new box transitions throughout the review 😊
I watched the kayaking video as we'll! Found it enjoyable and answered all my curiosities about the gear fit!
Hey! I watched the Kayak video!
And we appreciate it. :) ^M
Me too and i did lime the concept.
what airplane game is he playing at 4:47
Fi8 Carrier Landing 2 it says in the top left corner :)
Allaboutpad i didn't see that.. sorry!
***** Shhhh! * whispers* I didn't see it either ;)
Ophelia phew!
***** that's alright lol
so what's the difference between the sport and the active?
Hey ! I watched that video. And you should do that stuff again.
My suggestion ; scuba diving.
Why the hell would I sacrifice a fingerprint sensor and USB 3.0 for some software changes?! I could do this anyway with Xposed or a ROM...
I like that background music! is it new? Great upload BTW
I loved the kayaking session, im kind of disapointed you dont do any sport in this video.
My Samsung galaxy s5 does the system update, every once in a while. And I have sprint.
I watched the video too :) Used it to see if I should get the S5 or the M8. Decided to get the Harman Kardon M8 and i regret nothing
Pocketnow Hi Michael, I want to ask you about the yellow tinted glasses you are wearing,how does it differ from a normal tint and what are its benefits ??? Thanks
What was the flight sim game running in the video?
Micheal Fisher,I know that this may sound silly but what is exactly good built quality, besides just being able to survive a drop test?
I love this phone tbh
I thought this had the AC version of the Snapdragon 801? Isn't the AB the 2.3ghz version and the 2.5GHz is the AC?
i wached it, and like it a lot, every time u mention the active or sport edition i think on that review, is my point of reference now
I appreciated the kayak Michael. Chin up.
I just watched again the kayak video, I won't leave any Poketnow video behind.
So which is better SGS5 Active or SGS5 Sport?
active
Good review, and is the galaxy series called galaxy because each phone is a star or that there is as many phones as stars? XD
So its another S5 with a "case" built in?
I have the s5 and it tends to shutdown apps when I'm using it. It will say " unfortunately this (name of app) has stopped". Does anyone know why that happens
Innovation memory too much stuff open at the same time
Plz reveiw the camera of lumia 1020 Compare to yhe S5

What game is that
Are the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active and Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport identical in terms of looks and specs ??
its litteraly just a s5 active just for Sprint
I'm not seeing the difference with this or the regular s5 aside from some added health apps. At least with the active theres a shock proof feature
that "spark lte" spinning logo in the notification bar ruins everything
It actually looks cool to me
1301407gl Too bad you'll almost never see it.

Good review

Samsung's s5 new variants become like a weekly magazine
these "active" phones won't sell well in america. only about 1% of the population exercises
***** My Sprint Galaxy S 5 also has the same "Software Update" bug.
0:27 Jaime Rivera sporty person hahaha lol
*sigh* Another Galaxy S5 phone? Isn't this the umpteenth version in 4 months?!?!😕 This is way Samsung needs to stop making a million S5 variants and just focus on one or two phone models and be done with that.
Same thing is happening with lg...
JumpingLights91932 still making tons of money
1301407gl never said it wasn't..
JumpingLights91932 there only one lg g3 compared to 4 different samsung s5s
mike white do your research before commenting, lg g3 regular, lg g3 cat 6, lg g3 vista, lg g3 "mini" and soon to be a lg g3 with a stylus
Ya so next time, look shit up before commenting...
I feel like sprint tried to copy AT&T... They could've went so many other ways with the S5 sport smh
Lol.... I watch your s5 active video and last time I checked I'm somebody..... ;)
LG does not do so much bloat ware :P
The only thing i like its the color
Samsung is REALLY confusing me with the whole idea of S5'SSSSS on the market i feel dizzyyyyyyyyyyyyyy......... :(
Oh Sprint..
Not the zoom The original s5
The S5 has been milked to death like any other Sammy phone.
Samsung really lost it. They were cool for 15 minutes thanks to those ads two years ago, now, they just love to dilute the exclusivity of their brand. I mean just look at that abysmal phone they just released.
Spork!
hi
:P
WHOA
Samsung why -_-
I don't think it's Samsung Sprint probably requested it the phone to attracted customers
Same old banana
Smh at Samsung
This phone makes me puke.
I have had a galaxy and note 3.. too many models and the phones are looking too similar "apple anyone?". I'm moving onto htc.. no wonder Samsung is sinking. To many colors of the same phone with crappy ity bity improvements.. bye bye Samsung.
That is a ugly phone seriously
Kill the galaxy series and make a new name samsung pls
I agree they should kill the galaxy name and replace it with universe. Like the Samsung universe 5s, Samsung universe note 4. Am I right or what?
I ment s5 not 5s
