Great phone better with ice cream sandwich; needs larger battery

Expertise:Expert
This is a great phone; only negative is the battery life which for a heavy user is poor; there are no good aftermarket battery cases like those for iphone but you can change battery so have plenty of spares; overall until sometime better comes this is better than the current iphone; much faster.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, large screen, fast on lte, lots of apps
Cons: battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great phone

this phone is almost a year old and it still holds its own. I love the features and ability to customize my screens. very light weight and the screen display is a definite wow factor. very limited bloatware and what is there can be uninstalled or at the very least disabled. amazing video capture. the picture app could be better but the video more then makes up for lack of options as the video is stunning. only con i can think of is after heavy use i have to charge the batter at the end of the day. but thats real heavy use, videos, skype, music playing, games all day long. light to medium use of phone i can go 2 days without charging.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, video capture quality
Cons: batterly life, makes my friends feel bad they dont have one

Battery Life?
on July 16, 2012
Posted by: RevA
from Timonium, MD
This phone has to be recharged every day!! I can't believe how quickly the battery drains ... and I don't use the phone that much at all -- or any of the apps as I also got a Tab at the same time.
Coming from an iPhone for the past two years -- this was very disappointing ... however the iPhone didn't interact with my Google docs, calendar, etc. as well as this phone does
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color
Cons: battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

Troubled phone with potential
on July 19, 2012

Previously owned a Samsung Galaxy S and was expecting more. Has virtually the same interface but it much faster (when it works). Phone locks up at least once a day requiring reboots by either removing the battery or pressing and holding the power button for about 10 seconds to get it going again. Update to ICS using Kies bricked the phone; Had to have it repaired/replaced. Screen is beautiful when adjusted to a viewable brightness level (the default is way too dim) but it devastates the battery. Will go from fully charged to dead after about one to two hours of use. Can take hours to fully recharge. It has very good wireless connectivity, reliable and fast. 4G is also much better than 3G speeds. Takes very good pictures and videos. Back cover is difficult to open. Overall I'm very disappointed. I have owned many Samsung products, including the best monitor I've ever owned) but this phone is a serious let down. Would not consider a Samsung phone or tablet in the future.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, 4g is fast, excellent wireless connectivity
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor speaker phone, requires reboots daily, horrible battery life, difficult to open back cover, user interface needs improvement/refinement
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
