Ok phone with smartphone features

I like the smartphone portion of the phone. As long as you don't multitask much, many apps run with decent speed. The battery dies quickly with constant use. The screen is most often the battery hog. The phone is clear but you cannot answer it at times. The slowness and lag of the phone causes this. The conference call feature also does not work consistently, it hangs up on everyone at times. The biggest problem I have is the camera failed message that the camera gives off at the most inconvenient times. Only a reboot will help that.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: speed lag, camera error, battery hog
I would recommend this to a friend!

After researching several phone options, I chose the Samsung Galaxy 3.
I have very small hands, and even though the phone is huge, it wasn't a problem for me to use. I love that the screen is bright and easy to navigate. I was able to load songs onto the phone and use them as my ringtones which is pretty nice. There are tons of free apps available as well as apps you have to pay for.
The battery used to last at least 2 days, even when I used the phone as an ereader for a few hours. Suddenly, my battery doesn't even last for 12 hours.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display
Cons: battery life

this phone has a lot of good features an isvery user friendly
I say that the product is Awesome because it has everything I need and more. Im still finding things out about the Samsung S3 that I didn't know before and the S3 is the older version and is still a great buy
I switched from a Blackberry, steep learning curve on touch screen and I still prefer a keyboard. That being said once I learned the techniques this has been a great phone. I am skipping the S4 and going to the S5 but I have nothing but good things to say about the S3.
