I have owned my Charge for less than a week now and overall I am very pleased. For me, this was a step up from the original Droid, which served me well. The Charge is fast, functional, and fun! I love the speed of the apps. and surfing the web as well as the looks and overall performance. It seems to be a very good size and weight and time will tell about the durability of the phone.
I really have only a couple of complaints and they are not major issues. It would have been nice if the Charge had an LED indicator light to notify you when you have a missed call, e-mail, or text message. The other thing is the location of the on/off button being straight across from the volume switch, which can be a problem when you are trying to adjust the volume and accidentally hit the on/off button. Again, no big deal; just an unnecessary issue to deal with.
Like I said; this phone is "Almost perfect".
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast
Cons: no led indicator light for notifications, bad positioning for the on/off button, expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone is incredible. I replaced a blackberry storm.. and this phone is 1000% better than a blackberry.. Incredible features.. apps.. details.. design.. value.. etc. The only drawback is that the phone cannot be used globally.. but other than that... this phone is the BEST on the market.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, large screen, easy texting, high def screen, reliable, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor phone and data reception

I upgraded to the Droid Charge from an earlier Droid phone and immediatly noticed poor phone and data reception. Areas where I used to have great coverage now have poor or none.
this is my first droid and I must say it has not been a great experience. I have to take the batter out of this phone at least once a day because it hangs up. I've had this phone since June and on my 3rd one.
the phone drops my headset for no reason and I have to turn it off or take the batter out to get it to recognize it again half the time the alarm doesn't work the back up fails more times than it works
Samsung if you are reading this please give me a different phone that works
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Poor quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Phone is Awesome!

This phone is great, a step up from my vibrant which was another great Samsung phone. Features are great, couldn't ask for a better screen with the color and brightness to match. The build quality is not bad but could of been made better. I'm not one for the lightweight phones. I like mine a bit heavier as to feel like I'm holding something in my hand and I'm not going to break it easily. So I would of liked to have seen harder or more durable materials to house the big beautiful screen none the less it has a good feel to it. (very easy to hold). Also kinda surprised that it didn't have a higher processor though 1ghz is not bad by any means and with that sad I think this is a great phone to have. I would definitely recommend it for anyone. Great for all entertainment needs such as music, movies, gaming, and web browsing. Runs fast and smooth, battery life is great even with Lte on constant. Can't wait to see what Sammy roles out next.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, best screen ever!, great hardware powering the phone, all around excellent product!, great camera and video quality, very good speaker with clear sound
I would recommend this to a friend!

worst possible phone, have had issues with it from day 1, and stuck in a 2 yr contract, The phone locks up, has always had an issue with the camera operation and the flash. no it just freezes up, and or shuts down with the batery showing more than half way. had considered trying the galaxy III s,, not likely now
