This phone is amazing. It is just the right size to be able to use with one hand. It has a ton of developer support (even Cyanogen himself!). Even without flashing a new ROM is is an awesome phone. Samsung has really made TouchWiz something that is very usable. It doesn't have quite as many features as new phones like the Note 2, but when it is updated to Jelly Bean it will be just as good.
have had it for 4 days and already have hardware issues with it. im not rough with it and i havent dropped it, but all the sudden i go to make a call and it says i dont have a sim card. so i reset it taking the sim card and battery out multiple times, and nothing, so now i am stuck without a phone until the stores open again
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive
Cons: Poor quality, Too big, Did not meet expectations, not durable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great phone

It's taking some getting used to, but overall has been a great phone. Only had to restart it a couple of times after over-loading it with apps after I bought it; which is good comparable to other phones I've had that froze many times. This phone has not froze on me yet, just restarted in order to get the wifi to get signal again or another simple thing. I'm not a big fan of the power button being on the opposite side of the volume as I'm constantly turning the ringer off trying to lock the phone or locking the phone while managing the volume. I'm not regretting this phone though.
Color, imaging, sound, video, even battery life are all excellent. There are however two cons: the phone is slippery which makes is hard to hold onto (and is a noteworthy concern at its size) and the "bloatware", much of which can't be uninstalled.
Awesome phone... have been shopping for months before I decided. Definately picked the best. Only wish it had longer battery life, dedicated photo button, quad core processor and 8x camera zoom.
