I had the phone two months and the screen started to "bleed" purple in the display. I've never once dropped the phone, nor was it damaged by me in any way.
I haven't had much luck with a phone and the clarity of my voice being heard on the other line. This is my 2nd android smart phone, and the antenna being at the bottom of the phone, where your hand usually goes when holding the phone seems a little out of place. I usually have to make sure the microphone is right up to my mouth. However, what I do appreciate is, there's little to no background noise on my end. The phone is really quick and takes no time to load any program I've installed. I usually test my phones and will see how much they can handle by trying to run several different things at once. This phone can handle it all. If there is a bug, it's been in an app, not the phone. I have a smart tv and using the app that controls the tv from my phone is awesome. The one app in particular, is the we draw app. The clarity of the screen and colors are great. The front facing camera was a big seller to me. It's much easier, since the phones don't have a dedicated camera button anymore. Although it's not as high as the 8mp rear facing camera, it still takes nice shots. I've never had one problem with a Samsung product and will continue to support them. If you're questioning this phone over a different one, my suggestion is the Galaxy S2. It's a powerhouse and won't let you down. Plus, the battery life can handle all the necessary and unnecessary apps I run throughout the day and still hold it's charge.
This phone is one of the best. I think it really does kill the iphone. The performance is great although when i first used it, it was slow and lagged a little bit. Now it's fast and speedy. The price of course is a little above average for a new phone, but with an exynos processor and all these top quality material thats its made of its well worth that much.
I do love this phone. I have been using Samsung devices for years. Their displays can't be beat. My only issue with the phone is it's Android and not Windows Phone.
