Great Features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 2 weeks ago and it has been the best purchase by far. The battery life is brilliant went 2 full days without needing to charge. The camera is a lot better than my last Samsung phone. The phone display on really good very clear. The whole phone performance is fantastic. The size of the phone is a lot smaller than my last one took a bit to get used to. My last Samsung I had for 6 years so I'm hoping this one will have the same durability as my last.
