I don't care, I don't care, I don't care -- if it looks like an iPhone or not. I just wanted a smaller, lighter phone than the big monsters that Samsung is otherwise making these days. I want to keep with Samsung -- I prefer how they do things, plain and simple. I've tried others, and again I just prefer how Samsung does things by a mile. I do like the more "square" corners, rather than others that are a lot more rounded, and as far as "metal" and all that, the first thing I did was put it into a case, so who freaking cares what it's made out of? I'm just glad that Samsung made the thing available via AT&T a handful of days before my two year term expired with my old phone. ;-)
