Customer Reviews


A friend owns the same phone and I was able to test it out before purchasing one. As other reviewers have brought out, the battery life is quite bad. Be prepared to charge your phone every night if you run a lot of apps. I'll be looking into getting a new battery with higher capacity. The Qwerty keyboard while texting can be a tad small, easily fixed by turning the phone on the vertical, buttons are slightly larger then. The other 'complaint' about this was that it came without an ear-piece, easily rectified by getting one cheap online. As for it being truly unlocked, I haven't been able to test that function out yet. We travel frequently to Asia and I hope it works there. All in all, I am very pleased with my purchase, esp for the price paid.
Update 10/14/11: Wanted to note too, the adapter that is provided for N. America customers is totally worthless as the charger comes with the 3 rectangular prongs. The adapter provided will not fit, so be prepared to buy your own adapter. Apart from that, the phone works just fine.


Phone was in Czech language. It had installed an 'O2 Czech Republic' carrier ROM, instead of a carrier-free "International" ROM. Even though the description said "international", it was in Czech and with Czech applications installed that were part of the 'O2 Czech' ROM (couldn't be uninstalled). I went with another Android through image icons, to the language menu, in order to change it. Next step: flashing the ROM to a standard Samsung one in order to use it in the US. Also, manual IS ONLY IN Czech language! Finally, when contacted the seller about it, they never reply on locked ROM issue and they only answer: 'download manual'. Summary: O2 locked ROM and Czech is not 'international'. AWFUL customer feedback support.
