Samsung Galaxy Prevail 2 User Reviews

Bluetooth transmits 20 feet easily. Front and rear cameras are a bonus. The back camera is 5 megapixels and has a flash,. The flash is nice and bright, it almost needs a setting to adjust the lumen power. Operating system could use some performance tweaks, but that's what root is for. Speaking of root, all it takes is two apps which can be had from google play to wrangle superuser power, a couple simple steps to freedom. Don't forget to backup your factory Android install before you reformat, if you reformat.. Here's where I start with negative attributes; Factory music player seems to have problems searching my 16gb SDHC Micro card, file sorting is bungled slightly by over engineering, and it's slow, this could be caused by a few things which I haven't taken the time to properly diagnose. The phone is able to use a 64gb card. Some system settings and apps are hidden. Wifi may have problems staying connected if you do not turn off the hidden power save mode. There are too many apps set to run uninterrupted and download updates without your consent. Not too much bloatware, phone has a decent amount of internal storage (2gb), it'll get you further than the original Prevail, thank god, what great phone with such a disappointing internal ROM. The phone's outer casing is akin to wool socks on a linoleum floor sprayed with Pledge Furniture Polish. It's literally so slippery the people working on the Large Hadron Collider should start consulting Samsung for tips on the frictionless surface physics. I am not joking. Stock keyboards seem to have slightly less intuitive word guessing abilities when typing. The texting screen also seems to be easily overwhelmed, and somehow needs more free resources, I need to more system testing to figure this out and I have no clear answer as to why it is that the keyboard hangs for a couple hundred milliseconds at times when typing. Network speed and overall computational power has been nicely upgraded considering this phone's price, leaving the last model with something left to be desired.

Being I've only owned this phone for a week, I can't make a more in depth response. I previously owned a Samsung Galaxy Prevail 1(the model which this phone is set to replace). I do like this phone and I hope it will last me the 2 years my original Prevail did.

Just bought this phone yesterday and i have to admit it i was impressed one of the Best phones on Boost Mobile Network id definately reccomend any who doesnt wanna pay an expensive phone and want good quality phone to get you one its worth it
