    This is the first time I purchase a Samsung phone and I am satisfied with it. The features are great, images are crispy clear, and the size of the phone is big enough to see your favorite tv shows and movies.

    Great phone, although I don't do much other than use the "phone" feature. It makes and receives call like a champion, I have no problem hearing who I'm speaking with. (they also seem to be able to hear me as well) Can make calls anywhere!!!

    I wasn't sure with buying a pay - as - you -phone but this phone and my boost mobile package gives me everything I could ever want. The picture editor is easy to use. I am able to draw notes on the pictures and send them to all my employees.

    I believe this to be one of the best phones I have ever purchased in the past ten years. The battery last all day even while listening to music on the built in speaker. I text and read news at lunch and breaks then go back to listening to music still the battery last all day. I went to comiccon and took pictures with this phone four hours I was there taking pictures of events and people in costumes had to recharge after the fourth hour, but that was better than my last phone which wouldn't have lasted an hour taking pictures.

    Biggest negative is the price and the wireless charging cover not coming include . Also new charger cords. for cost of phone should be steel incluging battery cover. Back feels cheap. Mobile hotspot should be part of phone.
