This Galaxy S5 came in great condition, looking almost new, and had a clean IMEI. What wasn't clear to me at the time was that it was locked to Straight Talk, the carrier under its previous contract. Thankfully, I was wanting to use the phone with Tracfone, the parent company of Straight Talk. The Tracfone agents were very helpful and got the phone switched in only a few minutes. It's still locked, but it's with the carrier I wanted. Regarding the phone itself, it's a great CDMA/LTE phone running on Android Kikat 4.4.2 (and because it's a CDMA phone, it uses Verizon cell towers). Unfortunately there's no system upgrades (to Lollipop or newer) forthcoming from Tracfone. It's for this limitation that I am giving the phone purchase only 4 stars. This, I think, is a major problem for other people looking for used Galaxy S5's. Do your research before buying any used S5's online. Ideally, you want one that is "unlocked" AND with a "clean IMEI". If you want to use AT&T or T-Mobile towers, than you'll also need a "GSM" phone and not a "CDMA" phone. Check out Ebay's phone tutorials for more in-depth information.Read full review

Bought this hoping it would be like my verizon s5 specwise. It is not. The Os is 4.4 and there is no update for it. This makes the phone relatively obsolete.I love the full spec samsung s5, but this trac phone version is just not the same.

The power button is on the right and the volume button is on the left, but they are positioned straight across from each other, so it is hard to press one without pressing the other. This is very annoying to me, but I will get used to it. Other than that, it's a great phone.

Samsung Galaxy s5 jumps pages, malware is a everyday headache. At least on the one I purchased. I have tried everything to clean it up so to speak but for short on comings.
