I have had a poor experience with the phone regarding its battery and heating. Other than that it is a good phone. I just traded it in for an HTC which I am apprehensive to get. If I do not like it, I will go back and try one more time the S2

Best Phone I Have Ever Owned

Posted: May 14, 2012, 8:24 PM

Phone owned for less than a year

I absolutely love my Epic 4g Touch. It was the best phone I have ever owned, period. It has an amazingly swift Dual Core Exynos Processor, which keeps the phone going without slowing down. The battery life on the phone keeps up with every day use of the phone, from texts to phone calls to gaming to Netflix, I can do it all and not worry about the drain.

The call quality is great, with crystal clear incoming and outgoing signal. Can't go wrong with this.
