I love this phone because it is intuitive and comes with all the bells and whistles. It was like a snap to set up, in less than 5 minutes, following the on screen bouncing ball I set up the phone, downloaded all my Google contacts, connected to my gmail account and was receiving email. Being something of a techno nerd, by necessity, this was a real pleasure to set up. This is the wife's phone and she loves it, and she is no techno nerd.

Voice quality was excellent on the Samsung Moment. Callers had no complaints about us, saying that we sounded crystal clear. On our end the sound was great as well; callers sounded life-like, volume was good and even at the highest levels there was no distortion. The 1440mAh battery is rated for 5 hours of talk time, a 25% improvement over the Hero’s 4 hour rating. Surprisingly the 800MHz processor didn’t seem much snappier than the 528MHz one running other Android devices. There was still some slight lag in menus and when opening apps. We’re starting to think Android is to blame here, though 2.0 addresses some of these issues.
In the end the Moment left us wanting more. On paper it is a beast: 800MHz processor, AMOLED display, full QWERTY keyboard. In the flesh it doesn’t live up to the hype though, largely because of the poor keyboard. The stock build of Android doesn’t help either; where the Hero is fun to use the Moment is too plain. Android is really starting to gain traction and take off, but the Moment seems so last year.
After the all the Hero talk for the HTC android, I decided to get this phone due to it having a Flash on the camera, faster processor and a hardware keyboard. I love this phone besided the fact that it doesnt connect to my damn PC! i cant find any drivers and it doesnt come with any. Sprint tech support...More
After the all the Hero talk for the HTC android, I decided to get this phone due to it having a Flash on the camera, faster processor and a hardware keyboard. I love this phone besided the fact that it doesnt connect to my damn PC! i cant find any drivers and it doesnt come with any. Sprint tech support says turn in the phone and get a new one but im not sure if that will work. Other then that...google apps, touch screen, and the fact that this camera has a bright ass flash that can take decent pics at night makes this a good investment. I dont know WTF is up with Samsung phones not connecting to pc's though. Ive been on quite a few sites where people say their samsung phone wont sync with their pc...WTF is going on samsung?
