My first Samsung purchase, and I am extremely pleased with this product. Comfortable to use, as the design fits nicely in hand. Loaded with apps for business and apps for entertainment. Although, with access to so many choices of apps, I was concerned about battery life. This device has a battery saver and the battery lasted me with a good 8 hours talking, texting (heavy usage).
The product also charges extremely fast
Pictures are sharp and has multiple tools to assist in the best possible photo experience!
I have had a very positive experience with this phone and I would recommend to a friend.
I have had a Droid in the past, and I must say, that the Samsung Galaxy is a sure fire winner over the Droid. ( I never thought any phone would top a Droid), but the Samsung Galaxy does and I am sold on Samsung all the way!
OH yeah, its water resistant, how awesome is that!!!

I would love to give this five stars but one thing about this phone really makes me "ANGRY"

I would like to start off by saying that I am not a professional reviewer and do not pretend to be for I know my grammar is not all that great but I hope this review conveys my anger with this phone.
This phone has been rated very high even better than the replacement phone that Samsung is now selling so I purchased one and paid full retail so I would not have to sign a two-year contract and when I received it in the mail I was excited to replace the current one that I have had now for over three years by a different manufacturer for one of the biggest selling points about this phone and the deciding factor in myself purchasing it was the great camera built into it for it has a sixteen megapixel digital front camera and has a whole treasure trove of photographs and video options but then after starting to remove the protective plastic film that covers a new phone the thin plastic film that comes on the phone that covers the camera lens I had a difficult time removing for I had to keep scraping it with my fingernail until I got a part of it up enough to remove but not before the plastic film had left a little sticky residue behind on the lens and so I took a microfiber camera lens cloth to try to clean this adhesive residue off the lens and to my horror I found that the lens cloth had completely scratched the camera lens and I use this same lens class to clean my prescription glasses and professional digital camera lenses and never had an issue with it scratching anything so now I found that Samsung had in their wisdom to save a few pennies they used they wear a soft plastic lens cover instead of using something like gorilla glass that is used on the touchscreen itself for my old phone that this phone has replaced used glass and even though it is over three years old there is not a single scratch on the lens for I take immaculate and care of my property but now this brand-new phone has a scratched lens before I even could take the first photo or even charge the battery for the first time so I am not happy.
One last thing that I think is upsetting is I had purchased a top-of-the-line Samsung 64 GB SD memory card for the phone because the phones internal memory is only 16 GB and I wanted to use the memory card as a default memory card for all of my videos and photos and music collection to be stored on but after getting a phone unlike my old phone which gave you an option to use the memory card as a default place to store everything there is no such option on this new phone and fact I cannot find any place where I can transfer all of my music etc. and everything else I download to the memory card instead of having it automatically go to the phone's memory for all I have found so far is that you can pick a handful of apps and then one by one individually transfer it to the memory card but nothing else that I can find allows you to do this by default.
One last negative that I can think of is that this phone has a very tiny external speaker so using it as a speakerphone is not at all very good.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations, cheap very scratchable plastic lens cover, no way to use an installed memory card by default
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like it alot, but I think the screen could have been bigger. Over all tho, I love it and agree it's a great phone. Tho I've only had it a few months and my screen is already having glitches and going out.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: screen glitches
I would recommend this to a friend!
