Not the best review scalius Send a noteboard - 05/08/2010 04:19:45 PM

As the comments section highlights. The basic issue with the reviewer comes down to battery life, and that seems to be hit or miss depending on who you talk to. Apparently there was a bad batch of batteries shipped out initially.

Either way, every phone I've owned has required overnight charging, if not more. This seems to be the case with any new smartphone. I find no issues with this. On the plus side, you can carry extra batteries as needed....something iphone peeps cannot do.

Nobody seems to be having any problems with the functioning of the phone (the reviewer noted picture issues, and how it was "hard" to turn off background feartures )

I don't know, like I said I haven't used, but that review seems counter to everything else I've read outside of the battery issue, which as noted is an issue with nearly every smartphone. Why people expect their phone to run w/out charging for more than 1-2 days is beyond me.

I would slave, to pave the way, to sink your ship of fools.

Thinking about getting a Samsung Galaxy S I9000, what's your take? Helene - 05/08/2010 05:51:13 AM 520 Views

It didn't really bother me Two Wongs - 07/08/2010 07:12:41 AM 337 Views
Yes, yes and yes Two Wongs - 05/08/2010 11:03:16 AM 365 Views
It sort of sounds like you like the galaxy s less than the desire, so why did you order it? Helene - 05/08/2010 01:06:54 PM 355 Views
Because I wanted to! Two Wongs - 07/08/2010 07:19:09 AM 332 Views
You can get the apps off there Brian - 06/08/2010 03:00:40 AM 337 Views

Hard to beat? scalius - 05/08/2010 03:54:12 PM 344 Views
I checked out a review for the Evo, and it's not very positive Helene - 05/08/2010 04:01:33 PM 386 Views

Maybe because my current phone has a 2 weeks standby time? Helene - 05/08/2010 04:23:41 PM 342 Views
No smart phone is going to give you that Roland00 - 06/08/2010 11:15:26 PM 333 Views
Yes, I realize this. *NM* Helene - 07/08/2010 07:15:19 AM 141 Views
That review was....odd Brian - 05/08/2010 05:46:27 PM 346 Views
She's not in the states, so the Evo isn't really an option Brian - 05/08/2010 05:42:37 PM 340 Views
I haven't used the Galaxy, although it looks pretty decent. Morgawse - 05/08/2010 04:35:12 PM 354 Views
