It's for me :D
I recieved my phone this morning, and when i got it and activated it its battery was in the orange... i then played with it for a good hour or hour and a half and the battery didn't change. i charged it one good time, and haven't had a problem :) i have been using it ALL day (it is my first day wit it after all) and overall i think it is perfect for me. all i do on my phone is use the camera a lot, text a lot, and facebook. there a very few apps i get excited about or really use, and i think this phone does all I am looking for.
the internet even on the 3g network was faster than my Motorola droid, the free ram is staying at right around 290ish... which is WAAAY better than the droid with 43!!
as a brief review...
pros:
*os responds really fast
*great camera
*i have had really good luck with my battery (in my one day...*knocks on wood*)
*internet is faster
*more ram
*better on screen keyboard,so much easier to use!
cons:
*the fact that you cant use the kickstand and the phone charger at the same time (if you want your phone horizontal)
*the current lack of acccessories at stores
*the ringer is not very loud
*when watching videos the sound is not very loud, **key note, open the kickstand and its better, but still not that great**
hope this helps!!
Simply the best to date!
Amazing screen, very, very fast! Coming from blackberry's I was worried but I picked it up right away, I still have more to learn but this phone blows me away with its capabilities. I love it, you learn more every time you use it. This is the best phone to date hands down. The only weak spot is battery but with my settings not really an issue anymore.
