Beautiful piece of tech

You can find some great reviews with specs and professional opinion on other sites so I'll just give a layman's two cents.
This phone is beautiful to look at, takes great photos and has a HUGE screen. This isn't the Galaxy Note huge but if you have small hands, this may be just outside your comfort zone. If you can get past the size, the weight and balance are deceptively comfortable.
Allshare was an unexpected treat when I discovered I could share my photos and videos using my favorite game console without setting up anything, it just worked.
I have yet to find a task this phone does not excel at, thank you Samsung!
P.S Great camera :)

Awesome Phone!!!

This is my first Android phone, and I am truly impressed with the skyrocket! The screen is beautiful, the phone is super fast, and it runs all the application I have loaded flawlessly. It works pretty well as a phone, also. I only have one or two gripes about the phone, but they are minor and I will learn to live with it. first, the volume buttons are directly opposite the power button so that when I try to wake up the phone, I also trip the volume controls because of the way I hold the phone. The other is battery life. I have found that if you run the phone at full screen brightness and let wi-fi run all the time, you will be looking for a charger before the day is done. I have the screen at 50% and only turn on wi-fi when I need it and that has helped alot. I'm sure there are other ways to conserve battery life such as app managers, and I'm learning. The phone itself is AWESOME!!!!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast, thin
Cons: button position, battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a extremely powerful phone with good enough to last you a day battery life and more with a battery case, a beautiful screen, great camera and outstanding video recording, the games are outstanding but it doesn't give the full android market, now i am not blaming samsung but the skyrocket is the only phone and by full android market I mainly mean gameloft games
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, powerful, trustworthy to handle needs
Cons: the full android market is for soe reason at the n

Though it is not perfect, the features it has and the fact that it is so light weight make it the perfect phone for me. I'm still having issues typing with it, but that's a user problem, you know, fat fingers. LOL. Great product. I knew I chose the right phone.

A very smart phone.

This phone can do just about everything except play
apple movies. Android is not available for many movie applications (like Hulu). This phone streams movies very well when you can find them. The phone works in places where other phones loose their signal. The applications are only limited by a person's ability to understand them. This is my first smart phone and; so far, I am very pleased at all I can do with this phone.

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: battery life is short when all applications are on, gets hot when using gps navigation for long period
