it has all the bells and whistles, but what good is it if it wont let you on facebook or email. my previoius phone worked fine in this area so i know it is not the carrier. i havent ever done a review before but feel strongly that this is not a good phone
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Over all a good value

Just purchased this phone about 24 hours ago BUT my oldest daughter has had hes for year now. It has held up well for her. I like the size , its easy to use. screen is very easy to use touch response is very good. I was dissapointed that some of the little things I like to personlize are not able to be changed and a high rez. camera would , for me ,make this a perfect phone. but over all a good value for the purchase price.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: camera could be better
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best phone I have owned

My wife and I Just bought one phone @ Samsung SGHA887.
We both think that the phone is the best phone that we have ever owned.
It's simple to use, and the screen is bright and easy to read.
The Con is the Batt life is short. But with a car charger even this is not a big problem.

I like it but it has some drawbacks
on October 12, 2010
Posted by: noman
Overall I like the phone, it's small and fits comfortably in my pocket, the screen is large and the images are easy to see. Phone quality is good, but ATT 3g reception is iffy at best in my area. The menus are intuitive and it takes very little time to learn how to use. I don't use the online feature.
But, it does have its cons. The virtual keyboard is very tempermental . . . I spend as much time correcting typos as anything else, occasionally I can press a key and a completely different charactor will appear on the screen, other times the screen will freeze momentarily, still other times I will try to hit the backspace key and hit the OK key instead . . . if I hit it twice the message will send before I'm done. Lately, the software seems to be acting up. For no apparent reason the phone will switch from ring to viberate. If I turn an alarm off the settings will be completely different the next time I turn it on.

About two years ago, a phone that I had just gotten and had for two weeks was stolen. It was a touchscreen phone too. But when I got this Samsung Solstice back in February, I was so happy. It performed so much better than the phone that was stolen. I've been very pleased with it ever since I got it. I really do recommend it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, nice looking
Cons: Not high def

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Not high def
