I love my new Intercept! I like the slide out keyboard and the Android network. I've never owned an Android so I'm really having a lot of fun playing!! This phone does everything and it's really pretty too :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

New to Droid

I have owned this phone for less then a week.It seems to do everything I want or need it to do.If the screen was bigger it could be a mini computer.And with all the droid apps available it is a pretty awesome phone even for a intro type phone.If you listen to a lot of music on your phone,I would suggest earphones that is it's biggest drawback.But all in all a nice phone,I was looking at another touchscreen phone,I'm glad I chose this instead.It is easy to operate,and with all the droid apps you can almost feel like a geek and be one to.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, qwerty keyboard rox, the mouse is a nice touch also
Cons: speakers not quite up to snuff for music
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great entry-level phone

It's slick and pretty, as well as being cheap. It does everything I want. Unfortunately it's deadly slow on certain tasks (taking a picture can take 3 seconds...not exactly good for action shots), and occasionally the phone acts a bit weird and need to be re-booted. Despite all that, It deservs 4 stars for reasonably fast web browsing and messaging, intuitive design, nice keyboard, nice bright screen (though a bit small), and a generally addicting nature. I love it despite its faults.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: slow response

So ive had this phone for maybe 3 months.. and well every since ive had it i constantly have to re update the data profile on it, mind you its VERY VERY annoying. I can go and update it one minute than the next its all BAM! u got to re update it again.. I would not recommend this phone to anyone please dont waste your money.. Not like i did to begin with i got it from assurion but still dont go and waste your money until samsung FINALLY does a update for it cause its gotta be the worst phone ive ever had.! O and one more thing it hates when u get out in the cold weather with it, its so freakin sensitive i wouldnt be able to hardly do nothing on it!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, freezes alot!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do not buy this product

The phones processor is incredibly too slow. It’s incapable of running multiple apps simultaneously without having to kill something. It tends to freeze up a lot to the point where the touch screen is non-responsive. I'm on my second phone in less than a month. I thought it was an isolated problem with the first one but it’s not. It a good looking phone but that's it.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable
Cons: Poor quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My First Foray

This does not do what the latest phones can do. In a perfect world it would be able to use froyo by now when most of the world is concerning themselves with gingerbread. It would be nice to have flash as well as some of the other features of froyo. This phone will also not give you photos you will want to use for much more than updating your social networking sites.
This being my first Android phone, I don't really notice any of this. All I notice is how awesome everything I can do happens to be and the fact that I can't seem to find a limit to the crazy things I can do that I never would have thought of before owning this phone. I happen to be in a perfect place to appreciate this phone for what it can do, while I still recognize there are things that it can't.
Pros: Inexpensive

SLOW AND SLUGGISH!!!

While the phone may look cool and seem to be great, it's not. It freezes at least 4 times a day, not to mention will shut itself off and take forever to reload. I can't tell you how many times a day I get frustrated with this phone and want to throw it across the room. It seems to eat memory. I don't have much on my phone but it's constantly telling me not enough memory. I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, slow, freezes
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Samsung Intercept is Okay
on December 10, 2010

I find that this phone needs to be shut down daily, and also needs to be charged daily, even without app usage. It does what I want, when IT wants to, but I do like it. If one is patient, it's an okay phone.
Needs droid update!!! Flash is necessary!!!!!
Pros: Realistic color, good screen
Cons: freezes often
I would recommend this to a friend!
