This phone is amazing! This phone blows away the competition, totally worth it in every way. To name a few of the pluses, bright display, excellent battery life, flash camera and front facing camera, NFC and did I mention thin and light? Why don't you have one already, go get it! Can't wait to see the next revision, way to go samsung!
I replaced an aging blackberry with this phone. It is a huge change. Still getting used to touchscren typing after 45 days. Google needs to program a "Mark all as sent" button on email, my biggest complaint but that is an Android problem, a big one to me and part of why I took one star away from the overall rating.
Phone itself is fast, has exceptional phone clarity, stable call environment (AT&T), screen clarity is beautiful, music sounds good for a phone, camera and video outstanding, including sound recording, fast shutter for a phone, still not a camera though.
Visual voice mail is a cool interface for voice mail. Contacts dont synch with MS Outlook, which is the other reason I give it 4 vs 5 stars. Basically forces you to convert to Google calendar, gmail, everything which takes some getting used to. I'd still like to synch with outlook on my desktop but people dont work together anymore for their mutual customers.
Overall a great phone with the touch screen typing, no outlook synch and no "mark all as read" the only drawbacks I see. Can't wait for the LTE network to come to NY on ATT so I can benefit from that.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, fast speed, call clarity, camera and video superb, visual voice mail
I bought an IPHONE a couple of years back and thought that I was in heaven untill I got this phone. OMG I will buy Samsung droid phones until they stop making them. I love this phone. The best part is, apple cant tell me what to do anymore. :) Love open source...
This is by far the best phone I have owned. Feature packed, slim, lightweight, and a lot more durable than i expected. Will always own a Samsung phone from now on. In the months I've had it, no Cons.
I have had the phone for about 3 weeks and find it a lot of fun, this is my first android phone. A lot of reviews complained about the size, but for this size of the display, this is not a problem. I love the love large screen as I am a senior citizen. I do wish it did not have so many installed apps.
