Great Phone
Carrier: AT&T
Ok so let me start off by saying that I am a phone junkie.
I have had them all.
I originally had the S4 Active then purchased the New Nexus 7 HD.
This was shortly released and I just had to have it.
Needless to say I returned the Nexus and got this. I got it full price. Which for being a phone and a tablet is unbeatable.
Yes, the specs might look "low" on paper but when it comes to actual day to day performance, it doesn't disappoint.
The screen is very good. You'd honestly mistake it for a full HD screen. Only upon very close inspection is when you can start to see pixels.
The speaker is AMAZING. Very clear and loud.
Same goes for the earpiece.
Noise cancellation is excellent.
I live in NYC and have made calls on a train platform as the train is approaching and the caller on the other end could not tell where I was,
The camera is also very good. You forget that it's only an 8mp shooter.
It gets the job done.
The battery life, well, it's 3200 mAh
Lasts a day and a half with heavy usage.
I am over all VERY pleased with this phone. If you need higher end specs, then spend an extra 150 on contract and get the note 3. But quit bashing this phone if you don't own it. Its unbeatable for a 6.3 inch 150 dollar phone on contract and only 480 off contract.

Awesome Phone!
Carrier: AT&T
I purchased this phone when it originally first came out. The shear size of it was unlike any phone on the market.
Pros.
-Very Good call quality
-Speedy data and going through functons, i.e. from internet to text to email.
-Big phone but it isn't cumbersome.
-Very good battery. I was really shocked that a midrange device would be able to do everything it did and still last a day and a half.
- Camera was a pretty decent camera for 8MP.
Cons
I don't really have any, it is an inexpensive phablet that runs great, it reminds me of an oversized s4 but runs I bit more smoothly.

Needs to be more features
Carrier: AT&T
If it had double the qualities of the galaxy note 3 or somewhere on that level then I think it would be a mega phone but beyond the size and large battery it's not that impressive.
