Samsung Intercept

Ya, it perfectly embodies everything that is wrong with getting cheap android phones. I just wish the Epic could get the same amazing battery life as the Intercept.

I will repost this somewhere else.

4 Reasons to get the Moment over the Intercept

1.) The Moment has Rev A, the intercept has Rev 0
2.) The Moment has the standard resolution of 320 x 480 which developers have been developing for since the G1 first came out. The Intercept has this wacky 240 x 400 resolution that is already showing problems for apps.
3.) The Moment comes with SEPARATE charger and Data Cable (this is HUGE for me as i leave the data cable for charging at home and keep the charger in my bag for charging on the road.)
4.) The moment comes with headphones.

2 reasons to get the Intercept over the Moment

1.) The intercept is smaller, rounder, and more pocket friendly.
2.) The intercept will get 2.2/Froyo officially. The Moment will not.

I think the moment wins this one.

I personally don't think the antenna issue applies to 90% of consumers. I've never maxed out my Rev.0 connection, so I'm not sure what the bonus in having that little extra would be for the majority of folks. I've actually tested it with a friend who has the Moment, his webpages will load maybe 5 seconds faster than they do on my phone.

In the 3 months I've had the phone, I've never experienced a problem with an app due to the screen resolution. The Intercept doesn't play nice with most 3D games, but I have no problems with puzzle games or any game that isn't graphically intensive. You can play the time-wasters on this phone, just not actual video games.

The charger & headphones can't be debated, they're nice perks to include. But if you've ever had a phone that uses micro USB then you already have an extra charger for this device & I'm guessing most people have a pair of headphones sitting around the house.

Well, I just bought three of them, one for each of us in the family, except we are Virgin Mobile and we all LOVE them! We haven't had a single problem with them and I paid $199.99 each for them
