Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport Review: Running on Empty | Pocketnow

Ғылым және технология

Sprint's Galaxy S5 Sport is a bulkier, more colorful Galaxy S5 packed with carrier customizations and aimed squarely at the fitness crowd. But there's precious little reason to buy it over the standard S5. Watch our full review to find out more.

    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)...

    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.
