What pulled me in to this phone is its music phone, and very good design, and I don't wanted a big phone. It was one of my worst decision in 2013. I heard something bad about this phone before buying but I thought "Its Samsung It must be good".
I not going to say samsung is bad, But this product is very bad. Its a "Music Phone" cant Sing and Cant be used to make call. Not every issue might be present in all models, some may be present in my phone only. eg. Usb to pc connection issue.
Would like to say Cons first:
Its a music phone with SRS and other sound effects but lots of problems with music playback. Not talking about a music player app, no app will be able to play music accurately, it breaks sometimes.
But after a month usage my brain seems adopted this issue and not feeling this anymore.
Calling with this phone is pathetic, Lots of issues for making a simple call.
If you installed Facebook, WhatsApp like few app this phone wont respond long time. It took about 5-10 minutes to make a call. Average time to make a call is 2-3 minutes. Its only 1 out of 10 that my calls goes immediately after dialing.
My phone calling experience is following its worst in the 8 year.
Tap dallier and wait few seconds.
After few second dialer wil come some times no waiting it comes immediately.
Dial a no/Speedial/Call a contact and press call button.
Nothing happens.
Dial the same no and press call button.
Call goes and everything fine.
After call cut the call and put the mobile in your pocket.
Few second or after some time you will feel your mobile vibrates.
When you look it to it you will see you have charged for something, for the first time I confused what was this?
Answer is I tried 2 times to make a call, the second call goes after I cut the first one.
Some times I need to make 3 attempts to make a call you have 2 call waiting after ending the first call. Be prepared to cuts the following 2 if you forgot will regret.
People on the other side can hear what you are doing if you forget to cancel the 2nd and 3rd dial. Also will get a nice bill.
Some times you might not be able to answer call by swiping, thanks to samsung there is call answering option by pressing home button. It works most of times.
When Internet connected using Mobile The connection close when the mobile is fully charged. If I've to use mobile with pc then I've to drain the battery first.
Not able to connect with pc using usb cable its works but some issues, also problem copying files. Tried different cable, different pc problem still is there.
There is music key button, its a disaster. If you press to play for a music it wont play. But when I'm at bus or at office it plays if I touch it accidentally. One more funny thing is its plays musing sometimes I connect usb cable.
Headphone? Good. Next track, Play, Pause will work in some seasons but not regularly.
Many application shut downs while using I think its because of low memory and slow processor.
My rating 1.5/10. Never buy it if you want to play music or to make calls. Buy something with above 1gz speed. That's my decision.
I'm still keeping it and cursing myself because right now I don't a budget to buy new one. Not going to service. "Yeh to service ki baath nahi hai"
So many other things to say but I think "the few above is enough for making a good decision."
Pros:
Good Design
Handy
Tried uninstalling apps, Tried performance boosting apps (they are just craps). If you wont install a single app you might be able to live with it for some time.
A Facebook app is enough to hang this mobile.
