This is phone was designed for what it does....

the best phone to buy trust me i know!
hi,
i work at radioshack, and i've sold tons of the a900's. i've also played with the fetures of the phone, man you will not find a phone like the a900 don't take my word for it, go see for your self. in a competition you can not compare the a900 to the razr. the razr sucks! i mean sure the razr looks sleek and sheek, but people we're talking about fetures here not cosmetics. take my word for it, if you guy's want a phone that will amaze you really amaze go and try the a900, you will love i know you will!!!
This Blade is SHARP!!!!!!
Pros: Everything the phone has to offer!!!
Cons: Battery life is a little less than stellar. Took advice from person who said to turn off GPS, it worked. Battery life has gone up.
Overall: WOW!!!! I have been with Sprint for 5 years. I've owned all kinds of phones. This is by far THE BEST Samsung/Sprint phone I've ever had the pleasure of owning.
Great phone with great features!!!
Only issues I have with the phone are battery life, which is expected, no memory card slot, and the UI is a bit slow due to slower gui processor.
Otherwise it has great reception, t9 works very well, voice command is on point. camera quality is great. Get opera 1.2 for the phone and the internet is amazing.
The 920 is a better phone, but not as stylish. I chose this one due to screen size and the slim sleek look.
A900 Best phone ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
this phone can do allmost every thing sprint has blow away the razr with this phone only down side battery life could be stronger
FINALLY!!!
OK...everyone has their own opinions and are entitled to such...but this phone is by far the best phone i have ever owned...FINALLY!!! sprint releases a kick *** phone...every feature i could have ever wanted with superior styling, craftmanship and functionality from SIRIUS(TM) Radio to video to the 1.3MP cam...this phone is by far an excellent attention getter.
I encountered one thing that annoyed me greatly...when going to send pics it would always tell me that could not send due to network issues but a software upgrade fixed that and now i dont have not one issue with the phone...service, tools, games, pics, video and even FOX sports, ABC news and SIRIUS Radio right on the phone...what else could i ask for?? Maybe mobile adult entertainment??...LOL ok that was a sick joke...but you know some guy out there is saying "OH HELL YEA!!!!"...LOL
Ed. note: edited for language
5 OUT OF 5 HANDS DOWN THE BEST!
This is the best phone there is OUT! LETS GET 2 IT!!!!
First off, dont think that this phone is so thin its not comfortable because its VERY comfortable, i was a sanyo guy since the 4500 then got the 8100, 8300 and now this A900 and its AWESOME. coming from sanyo to samsung is the best for this one and only magical phone, the MM-9000 was my main choice of phone but when i seen how big it was in real life it was a huge turn off, looked into every phone and this is by far the best there is, it has it all you can ask from a cell phone its AWESOME!
Phone comes with the following:
1. USB Cable
2. Headset (earphones) [LOUD]
3. Of course the battery
4. and of course the Charger.
For those of you with those Pin chargers, no the phone doesnt support them but who cares? :)
____________________________________________
THE GOOD:
1) So thin and lite
2) EASY navigation
3) FAST internet FAST FAST FAST
4) Reception is GREAT
5) Music Player is LOUD for mp3s, i changed my mp3s to m4as because its smaller and louder then normal witch is perfect for me.
6) Camera is great, perfect quality no joke.
7) The hole phone can be edited by the settings screen its wonderful.
8) Media Player is loud, clear and fast for streaming (FAST like NO buffing/lag fast)
9) Online Media Radio is LOUD and bufferless
10) Applicatins load faster then any other cell there is out there.
Theres so meny cool great things with this phone i cannot continue to number them.
_________
THE BAD:
1) The bad thing about the phone is the morons that rate it bad because they DIDNT UPDATE there phone!!!! UPDATE, go to settings>others>update phone.
2) Bluetooth is a little weird but it could be just me because im not sure how to use it, when i connected with another bluetooth phone and he sent me an MP3 file i got it but i had no clue how to use the file or set it as a ringtone, when i got home however i noticed that the file was 1kb and i had no more room left on the phone.
Like it
