Slim, stylish, fast internet speeds and well thought out console. It is easy to text and navigate the phone using the Haptics both by touch or by the small stylus that is provided with the phone.
Bad Points
The video camera is not as good as it could be. It is clear but it does go out of focus slightly when there is too much movement.
General Comments
A fantastic phone, but ironically enough Samsung have not got the video camera functions of their phones up to standard since the extraordinarily good Samsung D600.
Still, a wonderful phone.
