First off I would like to say this phone is everything I have been wanting for a looong time. I was worried that I would be dissapointed after all the hyping up but so far 3 hours in and LOVING it!
* Aesthetics: Great! feels light and durable as well as the rubberized grip is a nice touch (makes me miss my thinkpad a little).
* Screen: BEAUTIFUL! My moments screen almost hurt my eyes after looking at my epic.
* Hardware: FAST but I havent realy put it through its paces yet.
* Phone - including bluetooth & speakerphone usage: Phone works well. Havent tested bluetooth yet, but the phone does its primary job of calling well.
* Overall User Interface & Samsung TouchWiz: I like it. Would I go out of my way for touchwiz? No. Its a nice change of pace after the moment (even though I only had it for a few days). Honestly I might toy around and see what I can change
UI wise and see how I feel then.
* Signal quality (Compared to other devices): On par with good devices. Again only 3 hours in, but I can say it has not had signal issues or anything effecting data.
* GPS:
* Social Networking
* Email/Calendar
* Battery Life
* Performance: Great! Fast and smooth. From my limited experience with an evo and this phone as well I can say the 1ghz CPU phones are VERY zippy! Def a huge difference between the epic 2.1 and the moment 2.1 speed.
* Media (music, movies,
DLNA)
* Samsung Widgets reviews I like the clock and weather widget havent messed with any settings yet. I also love the task and battery monitor widget that comes with the phone. No more task killer!
* Swype vs. Samsung onscreen vs. physical keyboards.
* Camera (both still & video)
* How the Epic compares to your previous smartphone (if applicable): Whats a pre? whats a moment? Thats about how I feel now. It does everything they did but faster and more elegantly. Sure I miss webos and certain features with it, but android and this hardware make me very happy.
* Disappointments (if any): At this time the only thing I can say is I told it to make me coffee and it just sat there.
More to come later.
