Great phone overall, minor issues

I have about 9 months with this phone, and i can easily say that its an alright phone. it has a great display, i have dropped it only once, and luckily it didn't get damaged at all. The battery life is bad, but considering the capabilities of the phone, it is understandable. A full battery will last an average user about 1.5 days. I had to replace the battery with an extended battery with double the capacity (and size sadly) The phone does lag at times and it can get very annoying. For anyone who's wondering, this phone has only 429MB of RAM. this is one of the reasons why this phone lags. I would recommend this phone for someone who uses the basic features such as; texting, calling, music, web, alarms, etc. I wouldn't recommend this phone for heavy users, or people who have movies on their phones, a lot of apps, or people who depend on this phone to get them through the day. (business people)
Pros: tools, camera/video quality, durable, ease of use
Cons: battery life, lags often
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone is amazing. I love it! Im 13 and and my grandma loves it too! It's so easy to use, and excellent for all ages. The only poor thing about it, is if your on the internet, it uses a lot of your battery. But if you keep your display *brightness* low, it helps keep your battery high. And even though its pretty big, its super light! Even with a decorative case! Enjoy your new phone! :3
Pros: camera/video quality, good for texting
Cons: freezes

When I first got this phone, I loved it. I dropped it and the screen cracked but I didn't really care the phone worked great! Now after I have had it for about 9 months the phone keeps turning off and will keep blinking the samsung screen. This just happens randomly, and when I try to turn it back on it takes like 5 minutes. To turn it back on you have to take out the battery which doesn't even work that well. If the phone hadn't started doing this turning off and going to the samsung blinking logo I would still love this phone! In fact, when I first got this phone I recomennded it to many people, now I tell them not to get it because of this incident.
Pros: games, camera/video quality, speaker, Wi-Fi capable, good for texting
Cons: battery life, volume level, small keys, freezes, durability
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

not happy

Feezes constantly. Have to take the battery out to reset the phone. Was never able to use the front facing camera on Skype. Google maps consistently froze the phone. Finally had enough so I'm forking over the cash for a different phone let's hope it's at least a little bit better than the Infuse. It's a good thing they stopped making this phone because no one should buy it.
Pros: large screen
Cons: battery life, operating system, freezes
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Overall Great Phone!

Overall, I really like the display. There's such a big screen with plenty of colors and I love being able to keep my programs running at the same time so they won't have to reload every time you exit out of them. Yes, you can close out of them to keep better battery life. If I don't text very much for a day and don't use any programs, the battery life will last the entire day. If you have a lot of programs running, it will only last about 6-7 hours and that's about how long it will take to charge if you're still using those programs when it's charging.
Pros: camera/video quality, speaker, Wi-Fi capable, durable, good for texting, light-weight
Cons: battery life, freezes

It's wat great when i first got it now it ain't worth anything! The screen is great only because i love big phones! I'm a samsung lover so I guess it's on to the Samsung Note!!
Pros: menus, camera/video quality, Wi-Fi capable, durable, ease of use, good for texting
I have had this phone for about a year now and it being my first smartphone, i was expecting a lot from it. It was no where near what i expected. Starting with the pros, this phone has a great 4.5" screen which is vibrant and truly is great. The speaker is very loud when watching YouTube videos or movies or listening to music. The battery life lasts all day for me but that depends on what you are doing with it. The phone comes with an HDMI adapter which you can hook up to an HDMI cord and watch it on your tv. This is probably my favorite thing about this phone. Moving on to the cons, which are plentiful. The phone was good only for the first i would say 1st or 2nd month, then the problems starting coming. The phone freezes constantly either it being on the main menu or the screen just turns black. Memory is constantly limited and is not 512mb like the specs say. You have to restart the phone to get the memory back to where you can actually use the phone. The phone also restarts constantly and at random times which is a pain. The phone as you may already know, is very slow either scrolling through the menu or in the messages or browsing the web. Texting is very annoying even though the screen is huge. I always hit the wrong letters even now after a year. The letters are too close together. Lag is in abundance while texting or scrolling through messages or doing anything for that matter. The Google Play store has very limited apps and also has plenty of low quality apps that are very bad. The Front Camera has a lot of lag while in use and the quality is not very good. The quality for the 8mp camera is also not as good as i thought.
Overall, i would NOT recommend this phone to anyone. At this point, dual-core phones are the way to go and soon quad-core phones will be next in line. Go with a dual-core phone such as the Galaxy S2 or S3. Even the Iphone is better than the Samsung Infuse 4G.
Cons: limited memory, freezes, durability, restarts constantly, black screen randomly, very slow, bad for texting, google play store: limited apps, using the front camera has lag
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I got this phone about a year ago, and like some people's, it froze and crashed a lot, and barely had memory to do anything. However, at the time, the phone's specs were alright, and it had potential. I eventually decided to root my Infuse and upgraded to CyanogenMod 10 for Jelly Bean 4.1.2. Now, my phone works like a dream, I haven't had freezing or problems, just smooth operation. Memory still feels a tad bit limited, but it's better now. The screen isn't that great compared to the latest ones.The single-core processor feels sluggish if you are multitasking with multiple apps and tabs.On a positive note, it can still handle some of the top games smoothly. So, the point is, this can be an amazing phone for the price: you just have to unlock its full potential. Technical stuff aside, the outside build quality is alright. The back battery cover feels like a thin, fragile plastic toy thing. The Gorilla glass and Amoled screen make up for it. I've dropped my phone numerous times, and although the metal is moderately chipped, you wouldn't notice unless you looked really closely. The battery life can be great or terrible, depending on how bright you like the screen. Overall, at this point, if you can still get one of these, i highly recommend it. It may not be the latest, fastest, or have the best screen, but when its potential is maximized, you have yourself a solid phone that will last you a good while.
Pros: tools, menus, games, speaker, Wi-Fi capable, durable, ease of use, good for texting
