Apexeon's review of the Samsung Galaxy Indulge R910 / Indulge R915
original version, submitted Jul 15, 2011, 2:01 AM:
Great phone with some shortcomings
I've owned the Windows Mobile and I have to say the Galaxy Indulge was a major upgrade. I'm generally inside Metro's 4g network, though it's a bit spotty in various places.
PROS;
Very fast response times on menus, selections, etc...
Very well integrated with Google stuff like Gmail and calendar (since it's an Android)
Handles like a mini computer with lots of customizing potential.
4 different ways to compose messages/sentences (including voice-to-text function)
Access to the Android Marketplace means tons of applications, like finding north/south or how fast your phone is moving or where you can find cheap gas or how loud everyone around you is, etc...
CONS:
No case for the phone; I've already dropped and cracked my screen and had to have it replaced. Huge turn off.
Battery life is appalling, don't expect to go more than 1 day on 1 charge. This is apparently true for most Android 4g phones. I've significantly extended my battery by turning off 4g when I'm not using it (you need an app to turn off 4g).
No zoom on camera is baffling.
Aside from that, if you're considering upgrading to a more modern smartphone, I definitely recommend this even with the hefty price tag.

---Update
Phone stopped working. It would just power cycle. It became tempramental would crash etc... Wouldn't recommend it anymore.
