I bought this smartphone for my wife because she wanted a cell phone with QWERTY keyboard and Android OS. The phone is excellent for the price with many features such as GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth, FM Radio, etc. Something I didn't know before was that this smartphone has a trackpad in the center button too, and thats great when you don't want to scroll touching the screen.

This is my third smartphone during the last 12 months. Earlier I lost an iPhone 4 and Samsung Infuse 4G. This time round I wanted a cheap, unlocked phone to ride out my contract.It took me a little while to get used to the small screen; my previous phone had a 4.5" screen. But after a week of use I've grown used to its size and the physical keyboard is nice to have.I live in NYC and the local express delivery was just $9 and I got the phone the very next day. (It was cheaper than 1 day and 2 day delivery actually).The 3G won't work on AT&T in USA - it'll just use Edge. But since 3G doesn't work the battery life is great (I get more than 24hrs).The phone was new but the box I got was clearly already opened. This phone was not designed for the American market and I suppose the seller probably opened it to put the Europe-to-America power adapter which is fine but then the hands-free earphones were missing (can't run the FM Radio without it).This phone shipped with a buggy firmware. The phone kept thinking that the SD card had been removed. Had to upgrade it using Samsung Kies. Kies is really really terrible and is easily the worst piece of software that I have ever used (makes me appreciate how simple it was to work with iTunes). It took several failed attempts (including one where the phone went into firmware recovery and wouldn't boot anymore) to get this thing running the latest version. Fortunately the problem is now resolved.It comes with ~256MB of RAM, ~180MB of internal storage and a 2GB Micro-SD card.The internal storage is just too less and will fill upon installing just a few apps. Moreover not all apps allow installing to SD card. Had to run adb (part of Android SDK) to change some settings which makes the SD card the default install target. But even then some amount of data gets installed on internal storage with each app and you will soon run out of space.I guess all of this is part of the 'Android Experience'. Things were much better with the iPhone - I had issues with the Infuse 4G (had to fight with Kies then too). Upgrading from Froyo to Gingerbread on the Infuse was a royal pain. I don't expect this phone to ever receive the Ice Cream Sandwich update, but at least it comes with Gingerbread already.All in all, I can't really complain. I've resolved the problems that I had and I have an unlocked smart phone with great battery life running gingerbread for $140.

This phone has all the features you will need, however it's got a lot of limitations that makes it frustrating. The touch-screen is very small, and difficult to use, and many programs don't display correctly. After 3 months, my vibration alert quit working, and Samsung won't honor the warranty since I bought it at a kiosk in the middle of Guatemala.Pros:A lot of features. GPS, WIFI, FM Radio, Bluetooth, Media player, Camera,...Plenty of available apps, including Facebook, Email, Maps, Amazon Kindle, Document readers, and many more.Cons:Skype doesn't reliably work! I've checked with customer service, and the small screen doesn't meet the specs required by Skype.The WIFI gets very poor reception on many networks.Battery life is very short when using the features of the phone.Loudspeaker is clear, although weak compared to similar phones.CPU is too slow to several programs simultaneously.
