Cons There is some attenuation with the signal, yet I can send and receive text messages without error and I have yet to experience a dropped call. There is a slight lag when switching between home screens, opening apps, and pressing the home keys. on July 22, 2010 by shidagirl  | Read full review

Cons Windows 7 won't recognize it, the driver install errors out. Had to transfer my music using the memory card shuffle method. Backlight on the hardware buttons times out too quickly, making it awkward to use at night. on July 19, 2010 by k5jvc  | Read full review

Cons -No LED flash or LED notifier
-Battery bar inaccurate
-AT&T Navigator/Hotspot apps auto run, even if you don't use the service
-Some apps simply automatically launch, and you'd probably want to kill task to preserve battery/memory
-No physical qwerty on August 9, 2010 by noc215  | Read full review

Cons Getting used to the android system takes a little time if you have had 2 Windows phones before. Pictures I had loaded from my HTC Pure would not load to the phone directry contacts, maybe I have to do it some other way?
The phone's almost addictive. on July 31, 2010 by glpatnode  | Read full review

All the Google Apps require internet connection and we all know how great AT&T's reception is. on August 31, 2010 by Petros720  | Read full review

Cons -Although Battery is good with all the bells and whistles on you will notice a drain (obviously)
-Although I like the design personally some people don't care for "sharp" edges and prefer round
-Screen can lose some visibility outdoors on July 25, 2010 by ecsurfer88  | Read full review

Cons Samsung is a fool not to have done proper QA before unleashing the device. Why transfer the burden of fixing the GPS to consumers? Simple transferring files after connecting to USB requires a google search. Why not make these little things simpler? on August 7, 2010 by karmic_gogol  | Read full review

Cons The biggest problem was the call out without warning from the phone. Also the AT&T crapware is just ridiculously stubborn and has serious privacy concerns. on January 8, 2011 by acr1965  | Read full review

Cons Stock email app (it's just adequate)
Slight learning curve for android
GPS is slow
Android app market navigation on October 21, 2010 by eparkerii  | Read full review

Cons GPS doesn't work. Physical design is just a bit too slippery and square. Can not remove bloatware. Limited to official Android Market. You must create a gmail acct. to access apps. Voice dial only works if you upload your address book to gmail. on October 19, 2010 by jdb178  | Read full review

Cons Processor doesn't quite seem like a 1GHz
No radio (however you can just stream it using 3G)
No camera flash (though i hate flash in general so it doesn't concern me) on October 4, 2010 by febbits4  | Read full review
