generally this phone make me feel so fine it's good by front facing camera it's good too for playing games,have a physical keyboard ,great screen,and a very quick android system but there things that not qualify this phone; if we talk about the 4G it make you think that you are connecting with the 2G,another thing about this service(4G) it will make your battery get down very quickly, and if you are lucky you will connect to the 4G, there are a problem in the keyboard that make you making faults when you are writing on it ,there another thing that is the buttons are poorly placed

I really love this phone. I even lost it, and bought another one just like it, now that I found my original one, my mom has one to play all her games on WiFi here at the house, so I can have room for all of my apps that I want! Google has the best apps, but I do love the ones like the racing ones, and the ones like Westbound. I have dropped this phone so many times I have lost count, but I know that it has never shattered, knock on wood, and it still works even after the battery has been thrown out of it. The only problem I have is that I would love a longer battery life... it's too short when I have to stay for hours in a Dr. office. Battery Life I would like to find one that has a longer battery life, it is the only drawback on the phone, which is why it has a 9 instead of a 10. Ease of Use My little nephew uses this when he comes over and he is six, and my uncle who is techno-illiterate, can even use it, I would recommend this to one who is just wanting a smartphone! Durability I keep dropping it, and it still keeps on going! I love my phone!

This phone is perfect for someone that either doesnt want a data plan or who will not use the internet from their phone. The good thing about this phone is if the touch screen goes out (happens to every phone at one time or another and make take years) you still have a keyboard you can use. This phone is great for my grandparents that do not know anything about cell phones or modern technology

I had this phone for about 2 years! Very reliable and dependent, I liked that it was touch screen as well had the keypad on it. I like to do a lot of things at one time, and this phone was satisfying in that department. Took great pictures, great storage space! I wouldn't mind using one of these again!

I believe that Samsung went the right way with this phone. It is a shame that they could not see fit to continue doing their phones like this one. The addition of the keyboard makes evrything that can be done with this phne a lot easier. Battery Life Once you download too much the battery wears down fast. The only other issue with the battery life being that the 4G capabilities drain the batery twice as fast a everything else. Thisbrings the total battery life from a fairly decent twelve hours to a stupid life of only five or six hours. Display/Screen Quality With a 4.3 inch screen, this phone is very easy to see. The added keyboard makes it so that half of the screen isn't constantly blotted out by the pop up keyboard of most smartphones. Call Quality I have Cricket Wireless, so their call quality is less than satisfactory. Ease of Use This product is amazingly user friendly. Durability My dad has had this phone for two years and is a clumsy contractor. This means he puts his phone through everything and it holds up quite nicely. Design The size of the phone is perfect to fit into your hands as the keyboard is open or closed.

I love this phone it has a lot of apps on it that I have yet to even use. This is my first Smartphone and I am very happy with all the applications it has to offer. Battery Life I charge my phone every night by the time I go to bed it just about ready to go dead so it gets me through the day. Display/Screen Quality Very good screen quality the colors are very vivid. Call Quality Good call volume and quality. Ease of Use I give it a good just because I am kind of a novice to all the apps on this phone and haven't even used all of them yet, but what I have used has been very easy. Durability I give this rating satisfactory only because I have had to bring my phone in once to have an issue with my screen display going black. I had it repaired at no charge and it worked fine but was a little disappointed that I did have to make a trip on to have a repair. Design I love the design. My favorite is the texting keyboard.

When i first got this phone it was great. loads of apps lots of room to grow but after 2 years the phone locks up so much it sucks i have to keep removing the battery even after a recharge. Good thing I'm due for a upgrade. Battery Life never last as long as listed when you buy anything even if you use everything you can to prolong your batter life. Call Quality always depends on the cell company your going through and cell towers Durability after 2 years not even a scratch after dropping it many times i love it

Bought this phone for my high school son He mainly does texting so I thought the qwerty keyboard would be a big asset to him. Weve only had the phone for a few months and hes already wanting to switch for another model. Battery life is very minimal. Keyboard almost needs a stylus Calls are clear when he uses it as a phone. Internet speed is fair. Screen size is acceptable but with so many icons they are rather small and at times you end up clicking on the wrong one.like the feature of rotating screen though...his prior phone didnt have that. Battery Life battery drains even when hes sleeping at night...almost 15% over the course of the night Call Quality very crisp and clear Ease of Use very easy to sign on to the web and use hot spots Design icons could stand to be a little larger

I purchased two of these phones from Samsung for my daughter and I. From day one, we had problem. The reason we purchased these was because we wanted a smart phone that had a key board and at the time, this was supposed to be the best. Well for us it wasn't. Both have gone to repair so many times its ridiculous. Key board stops working or the key pad breaks. The sliding mechanism gets sloppy and loose. The screen gets dim very quickly. Battery life was horrible. If we didn't have a contract to fulfill before we could up-grade these would have been trash after only 6 months. Battery Life Had to purchase a spare battery to carry with me because the life was only about 3-4 hours. Display/Screen Quality Ok but could have been better. Call Quality Good most of the time Ease of Use Once you set up your apps the way you want them it is ok Durability Horrible Design Ok

Great smartphone. I love the slide feature for the keyboard as I have trouble with those onscreen keyboards. It is super easy to use and pretty intuitive. I never had to read a manual to try to figure out how to use the features of this phone. I was up and running (understanding easily how to use it) within a day or two. The apps for the android are good and run smoothly on this phone. I have owned it for almost two years now and had no problems at all. I have little ones who use the phone for the game apps and they drop it all the time but the screen has not broken... so it is very durable. My husband has an iphone so he does have difficulty figuring out the interface since he is used to that venue. But then again I have trouble figuring out his phone because I am used to the Android interfaces. All in all I am very pleased with this phone. The screen is beautiful and clear, the apps are easy to download and I love having my email readily available. This is my first smartphone and I would buy one of these again if necessary. Battery Life We charge each night and unless my kids are on it a long time using games I do not run out of battery life each day.
