Everything works well, excellent call quality, excellent pictures and videos, somewhat flaky reception and it takes forever for Froyo release...GPS needs tweaking in order to work semi-properly...:-(( Judging by that we would get Android 3.0 from Samsung in 2012...
My prior phone was a Samsung Eternity. I loved it! However, with new technology it was time for an upgrade. I found video reviews helpful for learning the basics. I found the manual online and downloaded it. The more I learned about this phone the more impressed I became. I have no doubt it will be everything I need or want for a long time!
I'm not much on writing reviews but this phone is incredible. I've had tons of phones and this one stands out by a mile. You can customize it in just about any way you like. It's very easy to use and has a certain quality feel about it that alot of other phones do not. I would strongly recommend it for anyone in the market for a smartphone. You will not be disappointed.
I switch to this phone from the iphone 4. The only thing that I miss about the ipone is the flash on the camera. This is one feature they should have added. All and all this is a great phone.
I have only one complaint with the phone, which is the same with every phone. Battery life, they can make a battery that will last 10+ years inside the human body for a pace maker, but they can not make a phone with a battery that will last longer than one full day if you are lucky. Love the phone though, they nailed it with all of the features in this device.
I am so happy with this phone! I needed a smart phone so I could run my customers' credit cards at my home shows. It has met, and even exceeded my expectations. I am not so super tech savy, but I was able to figure out how to use the most common features without any help. I did not want an iPhone. This is much better.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

Alas the speaker

The biggest drawback on this phone is the speaker. I use the speaker on phones a lot. This one is not very good. The rest of the features are excellent however, making the phone a good choice overall. It will be exciting to see what improvements there are with the new version of Android.
