Of the 5 cell phones Ive had with AT&T, 4 of them have been Samsungs. This is by far the very best Samsung phone Ive had. Previously it was the Samsung Jack (i637) and this is a far greater a phone. If you can get one free jump on it...if you have to pay for it, still jump on it. Awesome phone. Awesome Video. Awesome Pictures. Just all around Awesome. Only thing I wouldve changed was the ability to see the HD videos you shoot in HD. But thats no big deal considering the other great things about this phone. I love it
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, android os is very smooth
Cons: Not high def
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dislike trying to get it to sync with a computer. But the major thing I dislike is the build-in email constantly comes up with "force close".
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Mostly good, a few quirks!
on August 18, 2011
Posted by: Twiggy123
The phone works pretty good for the most part and is fairly easy to figure out. When I am reviewing my e-mail and try to delete with a number of check marks it gets confused and drops some, adds to the wrong e-mail, or opens it in error. I did have to pay for a program to link it with Outlook which was a bit of a nuisance. I use Outlook alot and had a phone before that sync worked great with.
Pros: Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone has great features the only issues I have had are the phone is very sensitive so it is really easy to hang up all a call and the call volume and ring tones could be a little louder. The features are awesome instant access to email and social networks and the camera takes great pictures and video.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Great computer, GPS, game system - terrible phone
on August 19, 2011
Posted by: KindaSorta23
As far as the features go, this phone has everything - a 5 megapixel camera, very nice GPS app, great graphics, decent sound, and plenty of memory. As a phone, well, this contraption should be sold as a notebook or a mini computer, because it functions very poorly as a plain ole phone. Retrieving contacts and previously dialed numbers is overly complicated, the phone drops calls like nobody's business, and the 'end call' button makes holding the phone between your ear and shoulder a non-option. Hangs up on people all the time. Also, the system locks up more than Windows ME.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, funcitons poorly as a phone
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
