Great device, lousy interface. Date: November 25, 2009 "I love this phone, almost every bit of it, its sleek and stylish, fast and fun, at least until you get to the TouchWiz user interface. then its kinda clunky and really difficult to use, this is something to consider when buying this device, there is no option to turn off touchwiz, I even called Technical Support to ask how, there is no way. This is an Android phone, Android comes with a perfectly functional User Interface but for some reason samsung decided to write a new one that looks the same as the original behold and the other lower end samsung touch screen phones, I kinda get that, but really it takes a great device and reduces it to mediocrity. if you can deal with a really poor performing user interface, the device itself is quite nice. there are replacement UI's in the Market. Its really sad when marketing tells engineering what to do. Enjoy"

Too soon??? Date: November 20, 2009 "The phone itself is great. Easy to use. Has a lot of features. Smooth. Fast. Absolutely love it. The problem is... you have this great smartphone, it comes with the smaller USB cable so you can connect it to your computer, but the software doesn't work with it yet so I can't sync my 150+ contacts to it!!! My thought is that a phone like this needs to have that basic capability that has been in even the simplest phones for many years now."

Outstanding Android Phone Date: November 19, 2009 "This is my first android phone, and I am impressed. One feature that was a concern for some was the Samsung cube feature. This is a very nice feature and is not the main menu of the phone like some were afraid of. It is just a built in app. The phone runs very well. It only takes a second for it to detect when you rotate the phone to get the bigger keyboard. The keyboard also works very good in both modes. For someone like me with somewhat inaccurate thumbs, you get a little pop-up above where you are pressing showing what is being selected to help prevent accidently hitting the wrong letter. It comes preloaded with all the basic apps you would expect and the Android marketplace has tons more to keep your phone busy. It comes with a wall charger, data cable, wired headset, and 2GB MicroSD card. The reason I gave a 4 for design, is that the USB port on the top of the phone for data/charging is not a standard USB (So you will need to get a special car charger if needed). Other that that the design is very nice to me, not too big or small. The screen is very bright and clear. The camera's 5 Megapixels take very nice photos/video. I connected the phone to SYNC in my car and it works pretty good. The ringing sounds like it is fading in and out, but once on the call it's a nice clear steady sound. The visual voicemail is a neat little feature, the phone downloads your voicemails and put them in a list you can see. Then you can select whichever once you want to listen to (it will also load contact pics to show in list). Over all I am very happy with the phone so far. It performs just as I hoped it would and hope to see Samsung keep improving their phones with more Android phones."
