5 out of 5 stars Best Phone I have ever owned   August 13, 2010
Philip Clausner (Pittsburgh, PA USA)
Touchscreen is very responsive. The phone is a bit bulky but it keeps it safe. The apps are all very nice and it is an all around type of phone.


1 out of 5 stars Frustration and waste of money   July 30, 2010

I have had this phone for 5 months the first one did not work right so they gave me a new one. It would go into airplane mode and I would have to take the battery out to get it to work again the same with it freezing up all the time. I can't call or receive calls inside of buildings and a lot of times from my car. There is no speed dial it takes several steps to get to the phone number you want. If you ever have an emergency or need to call 911 may God be with you because you will be at his mercy! That is how bad this phone works. You DO NOT want this as your only phone you need a land line. With the old software I could receive internet service most of the time with the new update very seldom. The gps doesn't work right sends you way out of the way or wrong directions. That is if you can get it to come up.It makes phone calls on its own I guess that's why it's called a smart phone! When I am able to talk on the phone my cheek touches the mute button so we think we've lost connection. If and when you can get a connection to the internet it take minimum of 1 min. The speaker phone is very low and the speaker is in the back of the phone when I use the speaker other people can't make out what I'm saying.
With the touch screen key board you get the wrong key and have to delete, (very time consuming). The battery life sometimes I can talk 15 min. up to 1 hr. on a fully charged battery, makes no sense. Battery life with internet who knows since it very seldom works with the upgrade. When the battery is to go dead no warning just shuts down. The camera is very slow to load so if you want a picture of anything other than still life forget it, it will be long gone by the time the camera gets loaded. I would rate this phone 0 stars if I could. I have had sprint service for over 10 years and have lived at the same house before I bought this samsung moment M900 I used to have a 8 year old analog phone with limited internet it had good service most of the time. I upgraded because sprint told me everything was digital so if I wanted better service to go digital well it sucks. I am hoping that they will give me a new phone that works here at their expense or an antenna for the house so it will work. I am paying for services that I am not able to get. They told me the phone was not working because it needed to be updated with the software, it still does not work it's worse.
Before the phone was updated when it did work it did have a lot of useful and neat things on it. This phone takes way to much time to get anything to work on it and is very frustrating.
Save your money, time and frustration and get something else.




5 out of 5 stars Not Just a Phone, It's a Lifeline from Amazon and Sprint   July 28, 2010

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

1 out of 1 found this review helpful

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 3 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).
