Amazing phone! I'm a convert from Android!

"The ATIV S is a breath of fresh air, especially with the force of Nokia and the Lumia family of Windows Phones. It’s a high-end smartphone with everything and the kitchen sink, but falls short in the marketing and OEM app department. The ATIV S could have been so much more, a real killer if Samsung was behind Windows Phone."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight

Best Windows Phone 8 device

"Having used other smartphones in the past I thought I would give the Ativ S a try as it had good reviews. I can confirm that the features and performance are spot-on. It is a pleasure to use, and has managed to do everything I have thrown at it - be it music, video, apps or internet access. The addition of the removable battery and Micro-SD slot make this a must buy. The large screen is also a pleasure to use, and is easy to read in all light conditions."
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color

Forget android, Windows phone 8 is the way to go
Posted27 March 2013

"I don't know where to begin with this phone. It is fantastic. It makes android look even more dated, laggy and fussy than ever. The phones itself is wonderful. Fantastic build quality and finish, the buttons have good feed back. The display is stunning, AMOLED technology is the way forward and it has the largest screen of any WP8 at the moment. The speaker for both music and phone calls is brilliant, very clear and crisp and goes to a decent volume. Signal strength is fantastic, have never had any black spots. Windows phone 8 is awesome. It never lags, its smooth, sophisticated, looks incredible, has better quality apps than android and is tied in with other Microsoft products like XBOX and windows 7 and 8 beautifully. Its a functional operating system. Its so quick and responsive, this phone is fast! Don't be worried by the lack of popular apps - Temple run, instagram and Pandora are all coming to WP8 very shortly. Its the fastest expanding app store ever. I don't know why people would have an android over this phone. I hope Samsung continues to make Windows phones at this standard which im sure and hope they do."
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast, responsive, realiable os

A great Phone, let down by lack of 1st party apps and accessories
Posted09 February 2013
I would recommend this to a friend!
"Before I start I absolutely love this phone, I use it for business and I cannot fault it as a phone. Performance and speed are second to none, the screen is vibrant and beautiful to look at. Microsoft office on Windows 8 is brilliant and perfect for what I need. The problems come with a lack of Samsung apps and 1st party accessories. I would love a official dock and case but cannot find them anywhere. Lack of turn by turn navigation is a let down as well, all other phones come with dedicated satellite navigation yet this one doesn't.
Once these are addressed it will be a 5 star product.."
