I love this phone, but even with a really good protective case, the back piece of my phone cracked and then the phone started telling me the cover wasn't on. This happened within months of getting the phone. Then the screen started to malfunction. I contacted my insurance and made a claim and now I have a brand new phone, which I LOVE. I am convinced Samsung makes the best phones on the market and I really like using them. But I think there is work to do in making these phones last and stand up to real life.
Phone completely resets. This has happened for the 6th time in the last 4 months. I've owned the phone for almost two years without issue, but as I get closer to renewing my account with Verizon, the phone keeps resetting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great phone

This phone has been a great phone for me. I dont need the latest technology but it still does everything the big phones do. The screen is big but not huge. The camera does well in natural light settings, not so much in low light. The phone starts to slow down quite a bit with lots of apps running. One of my regrets with this phone is not getting the more storage! I always go through the storage faster than I think I will. Its also slightly annoying that it comes with so many apps that I dont want and wont ever use. But most phones come with a lot of bloatware and you can always root it. Otherwise its a great solid phone. I had one for a full two years!
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!
