this thing is still usable in late 2018/early 2019! Not bad at all if you really need a phone and this is all you got!

            kyla1800, 17 Nov 2014This phone sucks. 1. Slow. 2. Horrible Battery Life. 3.... moreyou have to turn the wifi on or be in a hotspot area :D jsut kidding! mine works great and i live in the middle of no-where, literally. Everyone above here sounds like they live in a disposable world. If you treat this phone well it works great and the battery lasts me about 8 hours straight of talk time which is better than any i phone or galaxy s5. You cant be picky for $60. bucks! Without calls the battery lasts for days on the correct settings!

              I love this phone, it has the slide out keyboard which makes typing 4x the speed of thumbing each key that you usually miss! It has everything any other new smartphone has. The camera works great for only 3.0MP. The display is a good size at 3.2", i wish it was better but still able to keep it in my pocket unlike a huge i-phone or galaxy S5. For $60. you can't get a better Android phone! Best part is its pretty durable. I do have slide complications using keyboard but that is due to me constantly testing its durability!This is the phone you want for a first smart phone. Thanks Galaxy Appeal!

                This is the worst piece of junk I ever owned. It was been in for repairs four times in one year. The PBA was replaced twice. Samsung returned the phone to me with two different IMEI numbers. The battery life is totally unacceptable.
                Samsung customer service and quality control sinks. My friend owned a Samsung refrigerator, she eventually sold it as scrap. I will never buy a Samsung product again.

                  Anonymous, 27 Sep 2012What are the flaws associated with the phone?Have had this phone for a year. Pretty basic if that's all you need, but you really can't ask for more for the price you' re paying. ( Its now down to $60 on some sites.)
                  I have not had any serious issues, but I think it could be a little bit more user friendly.

                                I have been using my unit for over a year now, but last week, suddenly its operation stopped; brought unit to the nearest shop where they handed the verdict that the unit has to be re-programmed. Since my unit came from San Diego, CA, and nothing of its model came to the Philippines, no program for it is locally available. How do I solve this problem please? Could somebody come up with a good and viable suggestion, please? Thanks so much and God bless!

                                  my cord has spoilt for about a year now due to that the screen is off,where can i get some to buy so that it will be fixed for me because most of my document are on it too. or if possible they should send some to Ghana because most people are complaining about it.

                                    I bought this phone over a year ago from Target as an AT&T PAYGO. I originally had a Nokia unlocked from the UK (been thru tons of sims from different countries & carriers). Only reason for switching is the charger port broke and I got tired of switching out batteries. Figured why not try a smartphone.
                                    From my experience, PAYGO plans don't play well with smartphones. That said, I'll say that this being my first-time with any type of smartphone, the Appeal I827 is amazing. Took my old full-size SIM, upgraded to 32-gb, turned-off the various apps I don't use and don't want accessing the Net (drain on money). I've had a couple days of 7-hr battery drain, otherwise, I can go a few days w/o a charge. My usual is 2-charges per week. Then again, I have a lot of apps & Net access turned off.
                                    Even though I work as a geek, my fumble fingers don't do well with the touch-screen keyboard. I've found the slide-out to be much better and not as sensitive, thus, I can "slide" my fingers across w/o having the wrong letters entered.
                                    At first, I had an issue using Kies but it was my PC. Having a new one, Kies is great for doing the things I do and need, i.e., contact updates, photo downloading/uploading, any other updates.
                                    My wife finally replaced her old Motorola Razr V3 (yes, UK-bought and 7-yrs old) since the bands between the US & UK are phasing out, well, at least, not working as well. She bought a Lumia 521 as a PAYGO. She's learning, but in comparison, I'll stick with the i827. The Lumia, being a newer Windows phone, is more icon-driven. I like the i827 (and OS) since it has both icon & text.
                                    Overall, I'll stick with this phone for a long time. May be only 3G but it does everything I need, and, has been a great introduction to the smartphone world.
