Samsung Ace SPH-i325 (Sprint)

Pros: Slim and hardy

Cons: Terrible battery life, Slow

Summary: It is a slim phone and easy to pocket it. It is also hardy. I have dropped it a few times and the back cover flew open, but the phone is ok and I could not find any damages or scratches on the phone. I went to this for the slim size and for WM.

I get terrible battery life, especially when using emails and internet. I can only get through a bit more than half a day even without using much of the email and data. I doubt that I am using it wrong. I have since got a 2nd battery, but it is so inconvenient and I get through about 12 hours with both batteries.

It also is slow in response. It is so hard to see under sun light outside. Keys are hard to operate. WM also does not sync Outlook notes, very strangely. I use Outlook notes extensively.

I had been a Treo user and now regret that I switched.

These are significant short comings, I will switch at the next best opportunity. I would not recommend it.
