Screen washes out in sunlightSummary: I bought the Jet unlocked to replace my Samsung Pixon, which was a great handset but it didn't have WiFi, which was a bummer. The Jet's upgraded TouchWiz is a welcomed addition that allows for multi-tasking. It has three screens with customizable Widgets for each, and can run multiple applications at once. I loved the Web browser. Pages displayed just like Internet Explorer, but would have been better if the screen was bigger. It can run Java and Flash, but it was unreliable. It worked on some pages but not others. The AMOLED display is one of the best of any phone I have owned. The colors are bright, rich, and the resolution is outstanding. The camera is excellent. Photos are very sharp, colors are accurate, and the flash helps in low light. It records sub HD video at 720P with a fun slow motion recording feature. The camera interface is easy to use and has a lot of great features. I love the WiFi and the phone's multimedia features. Only improvements I would like to see are a larger touch screen. The screen has excellent resolution but it let down by its small size and sensitivity and washes out in direct sunlight. My Pixon's screen was much more responsive. The TouchWiz interface doesn't allow for much upgradability or customization like the newer phones do. Although the processor says 800MHz, it seemed to stumble when running the Web and other apps at the same time and when viewing photos. Another issue I had was using it on a US GSM network, picture messages came out very small at just 5k instead of 300k. My carrier (T-Mobile) has not addressed this problem ye and nobody can seem to fix it. Overall, I love my Jet. It's a great phone with just a few issues that have been addressed in newer models. It has more features that I will use. It's not a smartphone, but it has some smartphone features. If you are looking for a great feature phone with an excellent UI, display, and camera, go for the Jet.
