New Samsung Galaxy S4 Active, Urban Gray 16GB (AT&T)
This is My Opinion About This Product
After I buy this New Samsung Galaxy S4 Active, Urban Gray (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
So far my phone works OK. It does what it is supposed to do.. device functions are great- camera, bluetooth, IR flasher, etc. etc. etc.
Going from an iPhone to this, I am insanely impressed by the sensitivity, clarity, noise cancelling, sound processing of the microphone-- it is hard to believe but I can actually talk to my phone like it is advertised, giving it commands and talking instead of typing, a very welcomed change-up from talking to my iPhone in a robot voice and dialogue that even the phone didn't ever really understand.
The battery is mildly impressive compared to almost any similar device this powerful, and gives me 2-3 full days on average, making calls, sending texts, browsing the web, just light to average use. Usually only a day or 2 with heavy use.
Reason it doesn't get an awesome rating?
MAIN REASON--Warranty does not cover water damage..so it was almost a waste to pick this device instead of something else. .. that's right your "water resistant" device is not protected by any warranty if there is any water damage. Great to find a company standing so firmly behind it's products and how they are advertised.
Also, there is a lot of bloatware that requires you root your phone, install this, uninstall that, back-up that, delete this....I spent the first 2 weeks figuring out all that crap and reducing the amount of information my phone was recording and sending and that is totally unacceptable to have to work so hard to protect my privacy and simplify my device.
Would I buy it again? good question....
