Cheap
Phone owned for more than a year

It is a cheap, unsupported, porely built cell phone. It does not upgrade to the newest android. The Camera is terrible. It gets very slow after a while. The processor can't handle crap. This phone is for someone who just wants to call and text.

Samsung Galaxy Avant is the greatest bang-for-the-buck in smart phones.
Phone owned for more than a year

The Samsung Galaxy Avant is for sure a feature-packed phone without the feature-packed phone's price tag. The phone's processor is powerful, its operating system is strong, it comes with great memory (with the ability to upgrade), the size of the phone is so accommodating, the camera works very well in that the pics I have taken are clear and sharp, as well as the videos, and the screen is clear and wonderful. The device's rear cover has a leather-like feel, and feels very nice in the hand. It's a budget-priced phone with many of the great features of the higher-priced Samsung phones. The phone's battery saver and ultra battery saver work very well, and really do extend battery life. Let me not forget to mention powerful wireless sharing features, notification features, and of course the device's slim design. Samsung keeps making great phones, phones to fit anyone's budget...and I am loyal to this company for that reason. My first smartphone was the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit, and believe you me, that was a great phone to launch me into the smartphone world, but this one is at least 5 times more advanced, if not more.
