This phone had me really concerned for the 1st month. I thought it had been hacked because my 4GB lite data (from Metro plan) was gone by day 8. Then I found there was 323 apps using up space. It really worried me that I had no control over all their automatic updates when I wasn't even needing to use the majority of them. Then in 2nd month 4GB lite data gone again by day 8. I like Facebook and all things to do with photography & editing. Don't see why I need to have over 300 extra apps. Love the phone, except for the above gripes!!!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, feels good. love the glass screen cover., cameras & camcorder are excellent., good sound., great illumination., good amount of home screens., love the split screen ability., love having open apps to switch between.
Cons: way too many apps pre-installed. over 300!!!, unnecessary apps adding too much data and cookies., unnecessary apps running in background using up ra, can't find enough detailed info on how to use apps
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's more convenient than an iphone & I have beenough an iphone user for 5 years. I just had to get this phone because of all the great reviews & I have to admit that it is nothing less than awesome!!
This is the best performing phone I have ever owned. It's completely lag free, apps and videos load with no problems. Love the security features on this phone, especially fingerprint unlock. Awesome camera that takes crystal clear pictures.
I want to express how happy I am with my new phone, has a lot of features that some of them I have no use yet. Is elegant , secure and very stylish. I switch from I phone and I don't want to go back. This phone is an all in one
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight

Third Samsung the Best!

This is third Samsung phone and the best phone Samsung has produced. The display and processor are amazing, and the design very contemporary. I have had great results using the camera, to the point that I am taking greater care with composing high quality pictures. The display quality is amazing with spectacular color and sharp clarity.
The speed of operation is very fast for both applications and streaming podcasts or video. I was apprehensive about the lack of removable battery and extended storage, but after three months of use have had really no need for a spare battery. So far I am averaging about two and half days on one charge, and usually have the phone charging overnight without problems. All in all it was great decision to move to this technology, and very pleased with the choice.
