Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere II I415 is not so good mobile phone, so of-course still requires changes, which can be applied in next version of "Stratosphere" or any new series plan!
I'm a typical Nokia user, but impressed even more from Samsung's instant upgradings and success.
Currently I own Nokia-N900, before purchasing it all i saw was a big screen, amazing camera, stylus and sliding qwerty keyboard.
I was wondering to switch to Samsung from Nokia, but Samsung should convince me by building-up a smart phone with these features below:

I was wondering to switch to Samsung from Nokia, but Samsung should convince me by building-up a smart phone with these features below:
1. "Shaped" as Galaxy S3 i9305
2. "Sliding QWERTY Keyboard"
3. All features of Galaxy Note II N7100,
especially:
A stylus like Galaxy Note II N7100!

A stylus like Galaxy Note II N7100!
Camera (Primary Camera: 8 MP, 3264x2448 pixels, autofocus, LED flash for HD Capturing/ Secondary Camera 1.9 MP for best skype and other video calls), like Galaxy Note II N7100!
CPU Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A9, Memory 16/32/64 GB storage, 2 GB RAM, Chipset Exynos 4412 Quad, like Galaxy Note II N7100!
Android OS v4.1.1 (Jelly Bean) upgradeable to 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean) like Galaxy Note II N7100!
Li-Ion 3100 mAh battery like Galaxy Note II N7100!
5.5", 5.0" or atleast 4.8" display size with screen protection (Corning Gorilla Glass 2 - TouchWiz UI) and Multitouch.
Color options = Titanium Grey, Garnet red, Marble white, Amber brown, Sapphire black and La Fleur.
Although, what I'm asking for would be bit expensive then Galaxy Note II N7100, but still worth it!
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Had two of these phones over the course of two years. Both have developed the same problem with the usb connector causing a problem and inconvenience with and or inability to charge. Happy I have an extra battery as it would be useless with out it. A real battery drainer too. When you disable the Google apps to extend battery life your constantly annoyed with beeps and pop ups to have them enabled again. Would never get another Galaxy Stratosphere
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

In the beginning I really liked the phone but as time has gone on, the phone keeps freezing and taking a long time to change screens, etc. I like the size of the phone and the screen size. I will probably buy another Samsung.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's an older phone, but didn't stand up to minimum expectations

I had a different QWERTY phone before this one, and the move to this phone was definitely rough. I thought I would just need time to adjust to the different feel of the keys, but even after a year and half and with tiny fingers, I can't type on this phone without pressing 2 keys at a time. I tend to use the swype function as often as the keyboard.
The operating system has more features than my last phone (which was also running android os), and I was excited to have more flexibility and better design in my features. Not to mention, this phone makes it very easy to set up a wireless hotspot for times when I really need the data.
The phone voice quality is not particularly great, but passable. I've found the battery life to be great on this phone - I can forget about it for two days before I need to recharge. The camera has been sufficient for my needs and the focus is good.
A year and a half into my contract, the phone is now almost unusable - it's unresponsive and horrifically slow. I can wait 10 seconds or more between a touch on the screen and a response. There is no way this thing will make it until my contract is up. The quality of the phone is just not durable or long-lasting. The screen cracks easily and I would not use this phone without a protective case.
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
