    In my opinion, the best of Samsung's Active series phones. The port coverage was superb, no sand/dust or water getting in. Only complaint is that one of the rubber covers broke after about a year, but I caused that by overusing it (I would move it around when I was bored, so mine got much more than the intended use). Great product

    I loved my new phone so much that my husband went a week later and bought one exactly like mine but a different color. We had never had smart phones and we were both hesitant about learning to use one. This has been easy and enjoyable!

    Love it. Adjusting to android from iPad has been a little bit of a learning curve. Like the service at Best Buy. Wish there was a face time option or app. Grade quality and resolution in the video part. Looking forward to using the heart monitor and fitness watch with it. Very user-friendly I am very happy with it in three days more than I wasn't I had my iPhone

    Still learning tools on this phone but it works great. I had a Note1 and it is very similar so the transition was great.
