I own, and have owned in the past many samsung products. And was overall impressed with all of them,
Intill I bought core2 , this is the obsolutely good mobile phone I have ever owned, and yes
This includes sound quality unbelievably superb
Battery life is pretty much good. I can fully charge it in the morning and at second day morning it is almost dead
If you want a phone, that you can use exclusively for multimedia, and massaging, and running google apps and for multitasking this phone is really good for you.
