      I guess Samsung changed the Prevail later in production. Mine is a month old today. It came with Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread. It has WiFi as I use it on my router at home. The battery gets warm sometimes, but never hot. A full charge with heavy use last all day. The phone has never locked up and is very quick. Network performance is great here in Tulsa. I think I would be insisting that Sprint / Boost update my older Prevail.

        HATE this phone. I can start the day with a full battery and by lunch it's dead, even with limited use, such as texting on and off. The phone freezes almost every time I open an app or make a call. And it overheats whenever I'm doing anything but light texting. The phone is slow as heck and lags like crazy. I've had it for five months and intend on replacing it as soon as I can, as it's performance deteriorates a little more each day. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE.

          The battery power really does suck, I mean literally
          sucks. I plugged my phone into the charger and
          the battery percentage went down

                          AnonD-32756, 03 Dec 2011I have this phone and I use wifi all the time, what you mea... moreyes it does have wifi, and there are roms and other mods available for it already too. I currently own it and have cyanogen running on it. It's a decent phone, but it's lacking in the memory department. With your phone rooted and sdcard partitioned, you can bypass the memory limitation by using Link2SD in android market.

                                J, 27 Nov 2011Does it have a front camera to video chat?No, and you'd want something with a more powerful CPU for that.
