I can't keep my Epic because I get no reception in my apartment, but that's not what I'm here to talk about. I'm here to say how the combination of all of the little things Samsung got wrong equals a bigger problem than any single issue could've caused.
- The hardware keyboard misses key presses. What good is a thicker phone with a hardware keyboard if it makes as many typos as a software one?
- The phone becomes unresponsive for several seconds at a time for no real reason
- MMS don't download on Wifi
- It only has one Alarm-Clock sound effect
- The front-facing-camera is stretched
- The speed of Gmail notifications is not instant/not consistent
- The bottom dock isn't customizable
- THE CAMERA WON'T TURN ON WHEN THE BATTERY IS LOW! Wtf is that, honestly? When the party is winding down and is almost over, and everybody's at their drunkest, that's when the best pictures happen AND THAT'S WHEN YOU'RE BATTERY IS GONNA BE DEAD. Apparently this phone thinks it knows better than me, but screw that noise. If I wanna take a picture, let me take a damn picture.
I can't think of everything that annoys me about this phone, but the little things get on my nerves far more than anything else. I mean, the GPS issues would piss me off more if I didn't have my G1 I guess...
