My claim:
1) low, yes I will buy a 17 "notebook ...
2) large display for surfing
3) Performance eg videos in HD Play (.mov) / surf / APP-performance
4) use many apps
5) Connectivity (Bluetooth in the car, wirelesshome, Tethering, media management on the PC, HSDPA, etc.)
6) Battery life
My fears:
7) to find not a single test in www / only (though mostly positive) advice - this can not be a quality for the price ...?!
8) What is the Ice Cream Sandwich implemented?
9) crux RAM, 512MB may be sufficient at all?
10) If the thing has dual SIM support, as is the management of contacts / as is the use of the card controlled to work / private cleanly TRENEN?
My experience so far:
1) got it for 170 bought in white, unbeatable! - Similar devices cost minimum 100 more - but as a "single-SIM"
2) Display is logically no OLED, brightness / contrast / resolution is absolutely satisfactory for me, with decreasing angle takes the unfortunately somewhat from what possibly when watching movies on time can be a bit annoying, in everyday life but not distracting noticed yet in any way prejudicial, the touch screen works cleanly and precisely
3) Running Running, running! All liquid, not a daily reboot because any apps or settings depend or the system is paralyzed on maturity, am thrilled
4) have approximately 30 APPs installed, including Google Maps is pre-installed, for Navigaton etc. also runs everything as on other devices, such as Samsung
5) all there, everything works, have Wi-Fi & Bluetooth on 24 hours a day, no bugs in display or re-Connecten paired devices that constantly a module on and off, as I know from the ACE, there's also not. Respect. Car work for me (in KIA) all remote access to phonebook, call lists etc., unfortunately cell phone and car music streaming are not unanimous, I think but that is because the phone will not be supported by the radio as the else goes.
6) Have suspected that cheap power-hungry components are installed by the price and the mediocre battery nach'nem half a day to its knees - Nope! Hab after receiving first fully charged and then the piece set / installed / tried until the thing is empty everything - off about 4 1/2 hours of continuous operation without the display, mind you, a positive side effect, it is no more than lukewarm. In recent weeks, stopped me in the middle of the battery always about 2 days with wireless on / Bluetooth on / email views every 10 minutes, which I know viiiiel worse!
7) There was only "trial and error", just thought to myself, so many people can not be wrong ... the processing is (clear) plastic but well, is in my eyes Samsung also second to none. Two minor flaws I could find:
a) if you switched from above the edge of the display, you can see on two sides that this side light lit behind the supposedly marginal
b) the Micro-SD (have 16GB in it) has no side entry but is installed next to the SIM card, in order to remove this, the battery has to go - I find, unfortunately, poorly resolved. For the device, however, is an optional Mass Storage or MTP media device under Windows, that is the simplest data transfer announced via a USB cable, some computers had with Samsung to my problems
8) menu system is well-structured, all the key modules are at the top of the header, as it should be, the setting are easy to understand and clean structured, even a "small" entry's who calls himself developer mode, here you can trifles as Animationsskale , background process limit, CPU usage etc. See adapt kontinulierlich, nice feature
9) RAM: I watch regularly, as well as some apps, such as Mail, Whattsapp etc. running in the background, yet I notice nothing but the RAM is always so full around 400MB, if I still via APP "Android Assist" clean up so the 300MB, am curious how / whether the developed on Lifetime
10) The issue of dual SIM (normal / no micro SIMs!) I had not wanted, but truly solved, you can see the card in the menu on separately and in turn (card is in airplane mode), you can at any SIM name give and a color. When a call / SMS comes appears directly in each entry is the name of each SIM in the appropriate color, analogous with out previous calls / SMS. In the menu you can set which card default for voice calls, which for video calls, which will be used for SMS / MMS and what data connection (HSDPA) - set or that every time to be in demand when connecting telephony or SMS. Parallel's when you are in each menu (writes in the phonebook / SMS) in the header is a selection on the map, which is used to grade / be. The contacts can be associated with each map and the contact books can be changed in the phone book by touch - had already intervening 2x Dual-SIM Phones are there worlds over time. Is solved here really top!
Conclusion:
All issues not mentioned, such as voice quality, volume, MP3 player and so on are, as I know it from Samsung, if not partly. Something better.
Sure - I can only describe the function / quality "impression" after 3 weeks, but the device has all my needs met, allay the fears and significantly exceeded my expectations considering the price. If the device still holds now by 2 years, is price / performance of the upper Kracher and not really understand ...
Finally, a tip for those who are wondering, I need dual sim, I have only one card for private use: the phone also works with only a map but the offers from the suppliers between low mobile tariffs / Flats and dataset for surfing's are usually not in a collective good combination or one of them is too expensive, here you can take a cheap rate for pure's calls on a single card (except Flat) and another card with a pure data tariff order. Map 1 for's call, Card 2 for surfing's. Here's for about 10 / month now already tariffs with 3GB !!! HSDPA volume level when tethering is allowed, because here you would need to use a tablet / laptop go for surfing's no additional tariff / Stick etc. purchase, then the Phone, the mobile Wi-Fi hotspot is ...

Update after six months probationary period
Hello everybody,
after the term I would like to nachschießen a quick update since I grad still ordered a addition to my girlfriend, I could be persuaded to cut down their old bones in the garbage ...
Basically, I wanted another or the same course a better smartphone, but after I've been looking for some time at the www, I came to the following conclusion: the mobile phones in the same price range (I have about Warehouse Deals 132 paid) cut significantly worse ( I've included two Huawei viewed - if someone read considering the tests for performance of the processors, the cut despite some higher overclocking worse)
An incentive would be for me still a higher resolution display, the performance is sufficient perfectly me, but spend almost twice is not worth it in my view, but then ...
I must say that I am completely satisfied with a few minor limitations, which I would want to anticipate with the device:
- Sporadically, but then for some time (ca.'ne week) constantly the start button "carrier" responded with my device, ie, the feature was limited to a little more pressure given in principle, just annoying when the device is not the first keystroke responding or ends the call, the date had 2x
- The camera is for dailies OK, from dusk, dim lighting inside etc. far away from i-Phone Co. Better is un's in the dark by means of two LED lamps on the back, unfortunately, not that suck really only for flashlights App. But does not bother me, because even an i-Phone against the advertising in my opinion far from being a substitute for a good camera is.
- If the device is not in your hand, but on the table, the screen does not respond accurately to taps, also emphasize that is not recognized by the mobile phone as a line, but only as individual dots. At first I thought this is a defect, but a friend has found the same device and the same. That's a bit strange, really, I did not feel the detrimental but.
- Every now and then there are times half a pause for thought, if I'm doing a couple of things at once and jump to the home screen, but very rarely
Now for the positive things that have me subsequently have noticed:
+ Most importantly, the battery life has not deteriorated significantly. I (still getting wireless on / Bluetooth on / Telephony work + private Whatsapp, email traffic ...) have with my usage behavior in section 1.5 days battery life, got it but also already received empty until the evening, but rarely
+ Hardly crashes, I think over time (and I start almost never new) is the cell phone hanging 5 times stayed with subsequent restart)
+ Of RAM is sufficient for my needs in any case, I'm using in my view many apps and try a lot of, grad and have currently installed 69 downloaded apps.
+ Voice quality, voice volume, MP3 player volume are good, I often use the phone for several hours in the workshop when tinkering, though is not a 5.1 audio but as a workshop Radio a fine thing!
About all seen - especially at the price I stay with my 5-star rating
If there are any questions left, I'll try to be happy to answer to ;-)
-------------------------------------------------- -
Update after just over 1 year:
On my machine I can no major defects notice more little things about life.
The theme on / off switch has been done, the pressure point has eased degrees compared to the same device but my girlfriend works great.
I've now from time to time a "hanger", followed by automatic restart, strikes me as old wie'n been run in Windows, from time to time to get a new setup of the OS probably not drum, because I have no idea whether the Apps verusachen or incompatibility of software versions APP / (original OS), or whatever.
The reaction time of the Ruhepahse or after restart has increased slightly, but is still manageable.
I could live with all but I am slowly coming to the limits of the internal memory. The problem is that the 4GB internal memory is partitioned about half runs as a built-in memory, the other as an SD card. Programs such as App2SD then push the apps from one half to the other, but I do not bekomm on the real SD (runs as SD2). If someone has an approach, whether / how to do it, then leave like a comment since ;-)
Summary: The device is a good companion, but now "getting old" when rasenten hardware development somewhat. Currently I would regard price. / Performance rather resort to Wiko. More hardware for your money, great reviews, both here and in relevant magazines.
