Samsung Galaxy Stellar SCH-I200 4GB Smartphone, Black (Verizon)

This phone, while extremely affordable, is not a very functional smartphone. The battery is often inconsistent. I happened to have two of these phones: the first one broke so I got a new one under warranty and then that one malfunctioned as well. How Samsung can produce such a low quality product while releasing innovative phones like the S5 is inconceivable. If possible, avoid purchasing this device.

This phone is constantly running out of storage. Updates from Google are eating up the phone, along with all of the other apps that appear to be mandatory. Having had a Galaxy S before this phone, I anticipated a much better performance than I received. The old Galaxy still out performs this kluge in everything but speed... the stellar is 4g. But, I have to delete any apps I WANT on my phone that I PURCHASED for my own use if I want to have pictures on the phone. Even adding a 12GB sdcard did little to help... the phone doesn't know how to use it, and you can't move your purchased apps to the external card. This is my 4th Samsung cell product in a row, and it may be my last.

This phone has over half of it's internal memory already used up before you get it out of the box with apps that you won't use and cannot get rid of. It is very disappointing, but I guess you get what you pay for. If you aren't looking to use it as a great smart phone that can do a bunch of games, take photos and have a ton of apps, then yes, this is the phone for you. I wish I had know that when I bought the phone.

I got this phone as a replacement when my phone became damaged. All my previous smartphones had been Samsung, so I figured that it would be a great phone too. Let me start with what I like about this phone: You can show/hide apps. I don't have to see all those pre-installed apps that I'll never use, and app I install simply for the widgets can be easily hidden so it won't be so cluttered. Sadly, after almost a year, that's the only good feature I've been able to come up with about this phone, besides the calendar apps. There is no way to set default device storage to an SD card, so you have to manually move all files over to the SD card yourself. When phone memory is full, it won't let you view your pictures, saying that you have to delete pictures or apps to view your pictures. So then you have to go into the file section and delete photos, but you can't view them because you have too many. Not to mention that when you do delete enough to actually view them, once you view one, you have to start over if you had any previously selected, so basically, you have to do it one by one. Another thing that is really annoying is using headphones. It won't work with the headphones with a built in speaker, and if you get a text message while listening to music, suddenly your music is playing out of the phone speakers instead of the headphones. This phone is great for someone who just wants a simple smart phone; send a few pictures of the grandchildren to their friends and text their children. But if you're looking for a phone for social media and music, I would go with a different option. I'm not sure if I'll be getting a Samsung next go round.

This is a great phone because it is easy to use, has an abundance of features, and is the perfect size, even for a senor citizen like me. I tell all my friends to get this model cell phone. While many have iphones that are a bit more confusing to understand, this model allows the user to get up and going immediately and really get to learn all the features that are included with this phone.
