the best phone ever, my brother have it and now i want it becasue its fast in everything like browse, apps, touch and more
Ive had my Amaze 4g for a little over a month now and I am completely in love with this phone from the beautiful display to the breath taking build its totally a sexy phone! although the battery needs help charging through out the day ill deal with that as long as I have this power in my hands ..
Great battery life on average to about 2 days without charging, super quick and snappy, amazing with custom roms and kernels can get up to1.8ghz overclocked,truly amazing and durable. best phone ive owned so far.
Lets start with the Display. Does size matter? For me it does, you need to judge for your self in the store before moving forward to the rest of your decision making with this phone. NEXT- Display View-ability Unless your literally living under a rock or in a coal mine 20 miles underground chances are you need a phone that will allow you to pump up the brightness and have text legible outdoors. This phone not only gives you the leisure of reading anything displayed on the screen in direct sunlight or on a cloudy day(Suns evil twin brother) but it also gives you an HD resolution that makes any photo pop off the screen with immaculate detail. Hands down best display I've seen on a phone so far.
Reception is slightly above average, I say slightly because it's better than what I've experienced on all of those phones and carriers of the phones listed in the beginning of this review. Call quality of this phone is good and that was judged by friends and family actually telling me that they noticed I sounded very clear even when taking calls via the speaker or physically placing the phone to my ear. Conclusion , this noise cancellation technology is actually working.(no Gimmicks)
Battery Life was excellent even for me being a hardcore cell phone user. I am constantly pushing my phone to the limits with screen on time. Moderate use (1-2 hrs screen on time) will get you a good 19-24 hours and extreme use (4-5 hrs screen on time) of the phone will get about 14-16hrs. Huge plus in my book but Note (pun intended) these results will vary depending on what your doing with your screen on time. Playing games, listening to music, streaming video etc....
Design/Form Factor-This is the first Samsung phone I've held that didn't feel like it would break if I dropped it. Twice I've successfully dropped the phone accidentally and it survived. One of those drops I did the one footed hacky Sack save where at the last second I used the toe of my show to decrease the drop speed and increased the phones chance of survival.
Form Factor
Nothing special here, its a rectangle.
Apps and Media Support
Be warned that I did fine some apps that were not compatible with this phone, why? I have no idea. But did it make me want to return the phone? Absolutely not. Most of those apps were junk to me either way. You will have all of your standard Google apps and more but please be prepared to not have Google wallet. Yes you have NFC capabilities but Google Wallet is not available yet for this phone. All of these app issues are why I rank apps support at 3 which is boosted to 4 because Media support has been phenomenal. This phone like most android phones can read just about any video/audio format and those that it cannot read are corrected by a simple free video player from the android market. If you want a phone that will last your urge of upgrading for a few years and gives you the pleasure of owning a phone that is not only smart but truly is a smart choice then go to the At&t store now.
it is the best even though it doesn't record 720p on the front facing camera like the galaxy nexus.... you can covert it into 720p with video maker that comes with phone itself.
SuperB Screen (After using Super Amoled on Galxy S1, I hardly go back to IPS or SLCD screen (Rezound).
Great Call Quality
Battery life is not as good as expected but It last a day for me.
Curve design. Isnt it unique on Smartphone Market ?
I can easily drag and drop on my phone without using Sync Software (which is kinda suck).
Screen is amazing, but the battery life and the app store is a little bit lacking to me, but I came over from an iPhone, so maybe I just need to get used to it.
After watching phoned video about skyrocket,now I feel like skyrocket is better.
Because of its massive display and both tablet and Phone features galaxy note is getting popular day by day.
I've only got T-mobile, but I've tested plenty of phones, including the unreleased Lumia 900. The T-mobile Galaxy S2 has been my favorite, though, as it has provided the best overall experience. Great screen size without being too large for my hands, consistently fastest data speeds, including wifi speeds, and a design I can't keep my eyes off.
The Super AMOLED screen really makes this phone shine. I just wish it had a 720p screen like the Galaxy Nexus.
Awesome user interface, and a great display and design
It is taking hundreds of Androids to beat one iPhone that is sick
super good cellphone but not so meny apps
very great phone-tablet it is awsome I love t have this one but I am still with my samsung galaxy s plus.....great phone
If you're into android, get the latest and greatest of them all; the Samsung Galaxy Nexus!
