I got this in June and couldn't be more happy with it. It's easy to use and see. I have dropped it both inside (wood floors) and outside and all I did was dust it off. Not a mark on it. The battery, last all day. At night I use the ultra power saving option and still have 98%. I would and do recommend this phone.

Very disappointed with this phone. Had it for 8 days and the screen cracked in my front jeans pocket. Samsung refused to replace my screen. Overall just a bad experience. It'll take much more convincing in the future to ever switch from Apple again.

Why do specifications say it is water resistant up to 1 meter and for 30 mins when this is not true! My husband dropped his in sink of clean water and it died, now we are told that water damage is not part of warranty! Think this should be taken up with the omnibusman and watchdog see what they have to say

So first off, I did not purchase the S5 active. My father actually witnessed the phone fall out of the population pocket of a guy riding a motorcycle. Needless to say, he jetted out like a speed demon and had his phone fall onto hard asphalt and slide for about 50 ft. My father thought the phone would be done for sure when he picked it up. There was no damage to the phone other than a small, unoticeable scratch to the camera lens in the back. If you ask me that is quite amazing. Any other phone would have been done for sure.

Samsung says AT&T advertise shatter proof not them so issue is with AT&T. AT&T says samsung doesn't cover physical damage or water damage. Can pay insurance deductible $199. Feeling false advertisement and the run around

VERY DISAPPOINTED.
Five days...
It was great for four days. On the fifth day I had it, I pulled it out of my pocket during lunch to check the time and there was a crack in the upper left hand corner of the screen. It may be drop proof and water proof but it sure as shit is not pocket proof.
My 5 day old "most everything proof" phone is damaged with a voided warranty. I was never even able to take advantage of the water proof feature and won't because once again, voided warranty.
VERY DISAPPOINTED.

I've been handling this phone for 4 hours and I have dropped it 9 times. It's very slick, It didn't break the screen til the 6th time I dropped it so I assume its a decent build. I had 13% battery and I called my aunt Judy up in Alabama and talked to her for 2 hours, got off the phone and still had 3% to check my twitter.

By your admission the cover was not installed correctly, the phone got wet and the water got inside and Samsung will not replace. Tough lesson to learn but it's your phone and responsibility to ensure the cover is secure. No maker will replace a phone if water gets inside. Sorry bud.

Had this phone for less than a week. Got the phone wet and the inside where the battery was got wet. NOT WATER RESISTANT! I had not a reason to take the backing off the phone. AT&T told me I took the case off and did not put it back on correctly. NO, the only thing that really happened was when the employee took the phone case off to put my sim card in he did not put the phone backing back on correctly. AT&T could do nothing for me, said take it up with Samsung. After reading other posts about water damage im very skeptical about getting a new phone replaced for free. Seems i will be scraping together 199$. BEWARE OF THE WATER WITH THIS PHONE!!!!!!!
