great phone, fewer problems than GS2

Phone owned for less than a month

This phone is not as oversensitive as GS2. It has great 4G LTE features. Better than my past GS2 and ZTE warp phone. With the original battery, it charges every 18 hours. Better battery management than GS2.

Great Phone

Phone owned for more than a year

I love it, however I dont use all of the stock stuff so Im slightly biased.
I use Nova launcher and Swiftkey for a keyboard.

After having the phone for over a year Im still impressed with the battery life.
Any problems I have are Sprint related.

better than your average free phone.

got the phone in November an sale for $50. I still feel like I got ripped off. All I got was an entry level phone with a very large screen. for a so-called high end phone you get a camera that is comparable to the flagship phone's of 2009, in a cheaply built phone.
