Had made a list of possible phones based on the lowest available SAR ratings. The top 20 list had more Samsungs than any other manufacturer. I was thrilled as I have had great experiences with other Samsung products. They always are made well and a great value. I was especially thrilled to find a feature by accident: voice to email. The voice recognition software used is awesome; especially considering I am dealing with a speech issue from an accident.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, voice to email with great voice recognition
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung Droid Catastrophic Fail
on April 12, 2013

The phone started out working okay for the first three months, but then I noticed it began to lag. I have only three apps downloaded to the phone, facebook, instagram and moonphases. I have gotten error messages when apps update saying that there isn't enough room, and the phone will not allow me to move the apps to the sd card. I have recently had a lot of trouble sending MMS messages, with or without text when before I had absolutely no problem. Wifi feature is extremely slow, even with perfect signal. The phone often turns itself off, even if there is greater than 90% battery life and on occasion becomes hot to the touch, especially when on the charge. The battery life is extremely short. I have to charge several times a day and I hardly use it for more than taking pictures and texting. Talk time is extremely limited, and phone doesn't warn for low battery. It just shuts off in the middle of the conversation causing whomever you're talking with to feel like you've rudely hung up on them. I have reset this phone to factory settings on more occasions that I would like to admit, simply to try and knock out any kinks in the hardware. This only works for a month or so, but then the failures start up again.
It started out being the ideal phone but turned into the nightmare from the nether world. I do not recommend this device to anyone.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color
Cons: Poor quality, Not high def, Did not meet expectations, sound quality is terrible for music, doesn't meet requirements for some popular apps, not enough storage space or memory
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
