Decent Phone, but............

 

May 21, 2011 by waltermax

The screen is great. I enjoy the phone itself. I am having the same problem I had with the Thunderbolt which I had to return, because it would not stay connected to my MacBook Pro. I am devastated. I really want to keep this phone, but as I am on the road all the time, I need to be able to connect as I travel, and this is just not working for me. All the good things that have been said about this phone are true. No one has mentioned the hot spot. It just does not work for me. Anyone else with the same problem? I really want to keep it, but unless someone knows something I don't, It will be returned next week.


Expected much more...

Considering the price of this phone and the fact that it is supposedly a high-end phone, I was very disappointed. After having the phone for a few days I will be returning it to Best Buy. My assessment is as follows:

Pros:
-Amazing Screen
-Size
-Sound from the speakerphone

Cons:
-Feels very cheap (especially when compared to the thunderbolt).
-Lousy call quality
-Slow
-Unimpressive data speends (Ilive in a 3G area).


Not impressd

I bought the phone because of the Super-Amoled screen and the fact that it works on Verizon's LTE network. Sadly, those two factors were not enough.
After a week, I couldn't wait to return this dud.

Pros
Super Amoled Screen
4G

Cons
Construction is of cheap-cheap plastic
Buttons on the phone were at time not responsive
Buttons were also cheap which makes me question whether it would last a year.
So much bloatware on the phone that the phone is laggy at times and slow to respond.

Here is one key factor that I considered seriously before I took the phone back. For those who are interested, samsung has the worst record in providing updates for their phone. You could be waiting for years for your updates like I did, and that too me was just not going to cut it in today's market.

Love the audio and the screen. I have had zero problems with losing 4g anywhere here in Jacksonville Fl.


poor reception

Decided last month to get a smartphone. The learning curve is simple, just need to invest a little time. There is 4G in my area of Florida. I moved from an LG env touch VX1100 I believe. Living in the city, never had reception problems with verizon. As soon as I got the charge, the most popular word in my conversations was what? You cant do a *228 cause of the 4g and Verizon couldn't help me, so back it went. The voice recognition got worse instead of better with the recognition app voice search. If it didnt get it right the first time, it just got worse. But that is more of an operating system problem I think. I have very large fingers so going back to the screen keyboard is impossible. I rely on voice recognition if no keyboard is available. I believe the Bionic will be released soon and it has an upgrade to fix that issue. As for battery life, show me a smartphone that has a good one. The trick is to turn off what you arent using while you aren't using it.
