This wasn't my best phone from Samsung. The screen size was wonderful. It was also my first phone with a forward facing camera which I loved. Ultimately, the software updates were too much for the hardware I think. Because after my last update the phone began to freeze up and/or reboot often. It could have been an app causing problems too.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, froze up too much

Bad Multitasking Phone
on September 26, 2012
Posted by: DanJ1
It's amazing the hype on this thing. After receiving my third one, it finally works, WITH the update to Gingerbread, it's no longer buggy. But the RAM is so low on this thing, 444MB, I can not put a lot of apps that I need on it because of the low RAM. It's a sad phone, from a sad phone company, sad to say. I'm not upgrading because then I would have to sign another 2 year contract with them. No thank you. This was my first "smart phone", obviously the designer was not to smart in making it.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I don't normally take the time to write reviews, but this phone has made such an impression on me that I felt I should. One of it's biggest advantages compared to many other phones on the market is the screen size. At 4.5", I can't see anyone asking for more. It almost feels like a tablet after dealing with so many phones with tiny screens. I have big hands, but typing and general touchscreen use is a breeze on this phone for me. The display is bright and vivid, and the 8 megapixel camera doesn't disappoint. The 720p video is great, and when shooting video, the camera will auto-focus. Even the sound quality of recorded video is decent. It has a pretty massive amount of internal storage at around 15gb. I just threw a spare 2gb microSD card in it and I have yet to come close to running out of space. In fact, I don't even use my iPod anymore, considering that this phone has twice the storage. I should also mention that the 1750mah battery is wonderful. A full charge will last around 2 days with normal use. Low battery life has always been a big complaint about smart phones for me. This phone is quick, smooth and versatile, even though it's only got a 1.2mhz processor. It's been able to handle anything I've needed it to do, and has pretty much replaced my iPod AND my Kindle. The only complaint I have whatsoever is that it's still running the Froyo OS, and there is no update available. I really wish they would release an updated OS. Even then, that's not an issue with the phone itself. I would highly recommend this phone over any other, it's by far the best phone I've ever owned.
Battery charge does not last as long as specified.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable
Cons: battery charge
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have owned many phones,but never one this great! Thanks, Samsung for making a great product. MY wife,mother in law and myself all bought the same phone at the same time and we are all very happy. :-)
I love my Infuse. It was my first Android phone so it took a little while to get used to but was easy to learn. Only negative is there's only 7 pages to display "favorite" apps - I guess I need fewer favorites. Overall, excellent phone!
