This is one those dark-horses which Samsung has not marketed like Galaxy S2, if they had then it would have been a different story for the sales of Galaxy S2. ;)

Awesome phone ! Can install & use every App and Play every Game in the Android Market with ease that too out of the box no need for ChainFire or anything, just install and play.

Its battery life is much much better than the Galaxy S2 on a everyday usage basis. If you are having any second thoughts about getting the Galaxy R, you are wating your time that's all I can tell you.
