5 out of 5 stars Not Just a Phone, It's a Lifeline from Amazon and Sprint   July 28, 2010
mac1186
I'll admit I was afraid to buy something so complicated looking. All the reviews and Sprint product info made me want to try it. Easy to learn and fun to use. You can check email, send email, browse the internet and keep up with everything you would have to go to your computer for when you don't have the time. The Sprint service is always available and never fails you. The still camera and video are an unexpected plus. The quality of the pictures and the ease of working with the pictures and film is simple and fun too. Battery life ok, keyboard it great, but the touch screen is awesome.


4 out of 5 stars Good Smartphone   July 27, 2010
NeatWords.com (Princeton, NJ, USA)
I have used many smartphones, Palm Pre, Blackberry Tour 9630, HTC Hero, HTC Touch Pro, Samsung Instinct, Blackberry Curve 8330, and the Palm Treo 755p. Each phone is unique in each way, the samsung moment isn't for everyone, but it is a good phone. When I got the phone first I was greatly concerned about battery life, WIFI really uses alot of power, but if you are concerned about battery life get the other new Samsung Android phone which has REV O, which uses less power, and gives better battery life. The moment is for people who are tech savvy, and really have the time to understand and play around with their phone. It is not for people who want something that works out of the box, the Palm Pre / Pixi best suits those people. If you want something reliable, the blackberry is the best bet, but has less features. The reason I gave this phone a 4 was since Sprint will no longer support with it with future updates after 2.1, even though the hardware can handle it. The phone is well built, and can last two years, and if your into programming you can get the latest updates from the tech forums. This phone is actually better than the Motorola droid on Verizon, which gets more hype because Verizon can charge an arm and leg for their service.


1 out of 5 stars Way to underpowered, buggy hardware   July 16, 2010
Jeff M (Wisconsin)
0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I decided it was time to get a cell phone after finally fulfilling my contract with a VOIP carrier. I initially chose the Moment thinking it was a good midrange phone, with more then enough features for me. I never wanted a phone that could make the bed and start my car for me, just one that could make calls and have a few useful apps.
The phone itself is just underpowered plain and simple. The hardware was never meant to run android and it shows. The phone is very unresponsive, irritatingly so. It also has a few known issues, the phone constantly locks up in data mode, and gets stuck in airplane mode. The touchscreen looks nice but doesn't always register touch, Im not sure if this is because of the laggy processor or the screen.
Furthermore, this phone is discontinued @ sprint. It no longer will be receiving any other software updates ans had been replaced by the even sadder samsung instinct. If you want an android phone on sprint you only have one choice, and that is the Evo4 which I now own. Amazing phone (but thats a different review).



4 out of 5 stars Great phone - However Sprint will not update Moment to froyo - I would advise waiting until next round (Intercept or Epic)   July 1, 2010
Shelling out $40 again...
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Just a quick note that if you are thinking about purchasing the Moment: I would advise that you wait until July 12th when the Samsung Intercept is released (or later when the Samsung 4G Epic becomes available). The reason is that Sprint has announced that the Moment will not receive Froyo. This means that this phone will not have wifi teethering (without using apps or rooting the phone) or Flash (or any new features in froyo).

If these features are not important to you then the Moment is a great phone. I have been happy with my phone. I am not however happy about how my five month phone is already not being updated to the newest version of Android. (I guess the Droid phones will end up like early 90's computers; you have to jump in at some point - only to watch your purchase become obsolete within a year).



5 out of 5 stars Check out SDX Forums for the Latest and Greatest for Moment   May 30, 2010
David Seo (Seoul, Seoul, KR)
You guys need to check out sdx forums - it has alot of custom roms for the moment.

Including their own JIT compiler (announced for Android version of Froyo) which make the phone 2-5X as fast

I own this phone and i'm 100% satisfied with it.
