Now, after intensive use of the Samsung Ativ S, I can report almost only positive things about the Windows Phone from Samsung. While it is my first smartphone, which is why I do not have a longer-term options with Android devices, but I still have a feeling that the Windows operating system running smoothly. There are no crashes, the system works fast, fluid, intuitive and MMN also clearer than Android. The design is a matter of taste, but I got used to it and after some initial doubts'm very happy with it now. The design options that offer one, are numerous and have enough space to play around. It would, however, may be more and more beautiful design colors. What bothers me is the somewhat long road to a contact, I would like to call on him but that's actions at a high level. The hardware of the phone convinced. The camera takes good photos, the display is crisp, games with high graphics requirements to function optimally, without any lag or similar and the reception and sound quality is good. Only the battery is able to convince me not quite. The major shortcoming of smartphones also here could not be bbeseitigt. With intensive use of Whatsapp and the Internet, I will not be on the day. But I am also a frequent users. On calm days where I would leave are times the phone, the battery lasts through also. Particularly as it is also the possibility of battery exchange. Now for the criticism of the lack of apps. In my eyes the Appangebot is perfectly adequate. The most important apps are available, or it can be found good alternatives. In my view, although most of apps are always just pointless gimmick that walk past the end of a phone. Too bad it is to quiz duel, but anyway, you can indeed meet in real life instead of just hanging before such a device. It can therefore be said in summary that it / Performance-wise, the time probably is price no better device on the market. I can wholeheartedly recommend it and can only advise not to be intimidated by the scare tactics to the operating system and the lack of apps.
