Galaxy S5 for $250?

[Son]

its a sprint S5 used for $250...is it worth it?

[gazabi]

Why not, depends on condition though. They probably retail $500+ new.

Depends on the condition. Maybe.

Who knows maybe it'll even come with free nudes.

it has no scratches or dent, the only issue is the charging cover thing that dosent close all the way in but he said its replaceable

[SirNumbers]

Go ahead and buy it, its arguably better than the S6.

I got my sprint s5 for $1 from Best Buy

How is it better than the s6? Do not use the function excuse.  MicroSDs on Android are pretty much useless since apps usually can't be moved to a microSD. Also the battery thing. It's sort of impractical to carry around a couple extra batteries. My Moto G 2014 is probably more power hungry because it has an older CPU and it has a 2070mah battery that is not removable. I get it down to about 30% in one day by doing more demanding task. I doubt the s6 would have that issue be as present/noticeable, because it has a decent size battery and is better on power efficiency because it has a newer CPU and better display technology.

However, both the s6 and s5 are good. (Well maybe besides touchwiz.)

LOL where did you come up with that nonsense?

I for one LOVE my extended battery on my galaxy s4. 5200mah battery is awesome. Push 6 hours of screen on time and end the day with 30-40%. few people like to make their device thicker, but its a huge thing for me. Its not very common though, and not the "norm" so it will not apply to some, but is really the only reason for a removable back. 

 

MicroSD is important for me because of my music collection, but nowadays streaming is more common, so theres that. 

 

I agree, no one carries around batteries, its much more convient to just get a battery bank if thats your situation. 

 

OP, its a decent phone, my mom has one, I hate the little cover and would just take it off unless you NEED the guranteed waterproofing. Its extremely annoying. but for 250 it is a solid deal, but only if you like the phone. Would not say its better then a s6 though

Yeah I don't store my music locally but ya know at least Samsung is generous enough to make 32GB standard on the s6/edge. Even though for 128GB there is quite a premium to be had.

I just bought it thanks 

if you ever have battery life issues, pick one of these up http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Extended-Capability-Compatible-Warranty/dp/B00RLRAEKG/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1429409206&sr=8-3&keywords=s5+extended+battery

 

keep in mind theres also larger versions, but thats the best comprise IMO. for me, I literally havent killed my phone in one day. no matter what I Do. Battery anxiety is not a thing. Theres days my phone only gets down to 70% at the end of the day. most days its in the 30-50% range, and sometimes in the low 20%s on the 6+ hour of screen on days. I dont think its ever gone under 15% though. and even then, with light usage it will last another 12-18 hours. 

 

so 5000mah is the largest id go, unless you plan on doing something above the normal with your phone, like camping for a whole weekend or something. but at that point you might just want a big battery bank. Anything above 5000ish is just extra weight, but enough to make it though a whole day, no matter what. 

 

Its funny, because in my case its actually easier to hold then stock because of the shape fits the hand more naturally.
