Pro:
- Very stylish and chic design (very slim and portable)
- All keys have a good Druckpukt
- The call quality is very good
- A really good camera
- The performance of Windows Phone 8 (WP8) is really awesome (it all boils liquid, which certainly is also due to the hardware that really sufficient perfectly, even for extremely graphically appealing games)
- WP8 has, I think, a great design, looks really nice and is very well arranged and therefore very easy to operate
Negatives:
- WP8 has not the wealth of apps such as Android, but it was in the 2 months in which I have the phone very much done
the classic game and also the important and well-known apps that you have on all other operating systems are available
- The notification settings are not very detailed
- Scratch-prone back (however removable and thus less expensive to replace it)
I have now only the things listed that are occurred to me so and I really seemed important.
I would like to address the point WhatsApp because me this, than I've read through reviews about the Ativ S, something missing, because at this day certainly the majority uses the Massaging service.
He is certainly not comparable to the Android, but it has done well here in the last two months a lot, there are not so many options available. Such as to set the own back-ground or a special ring tone.
However, I am convinced that all this will come in the next few months.
And with WP8.1 Blue it is supposed to give a Benachrichtgungscenter which will make it easier WhatsAppsicherlich to integrate the respective settings.
The basic functions are now but all there and in my opinion, WhatsApp also runs smoother than with Android or IOS.
My Conclusion:
I can really recommend the Samsung Ativ S. It's a really good smartphone for the price, what Windows Phone 8 is not altered.
There appears to be focusing too much on WP8 and I am convinced that it will improve soon.
I also think that the Ativ S the Windows Phone 8.1 update "Blue" gets and thus expect many new features and improvements.
