Samsung S5830 Galaxy Ace – Unlocked Phone – Black

I purchased this phone for a couple of months and to be honest is my first experience with smartphones, because it has taken me several days to get familiar with its operation, and I went from having a regular phone to this incredibly functional gadget and change has been a noticeable leap, its 800 mHz processor is quite fast and efficient. The touch screen is very good quality, sensible, scratch resistent (gorilla glass), decent amazing definition and brightness. It’s camera takes pictures of acceptable quality, and the video runs smoothly. The size of the phone without being small makes it suitable for carrying in your pocket without a problem, or the discomfort of smartphones largest and highest range and price.
Android as operattivo system is very friendly and intuitive, easy to use and I love power because all you can do with a phone and more!
Works great with the 3G network from my country (Costa Rica). Simply insert the SIM and voila, a few minutes I was conected and running properly, I did not think it would be so simple to be honest!
The only negative thing I could say so far is the short battery life when using multiple functions simultaneously (common problem with smartphones) as already mentioned in other grades here … But this is easily solved with an extra charger in the office and at home, and upload daily … jeje!
At last I can recommend this phone without fear for those who like me (not being a fan for the latest in technology) nedd the benefits of a smartphone that have a good average performance, but with several extra applications that allow you to grow and evolve according to your needs as a user … By the way I wrote this review from my phone, which I think is really amazing!

Adquirí este telefono desde hace un par de meses y para ser sincero es mi primer experiencia con smartphones, debido a esto me ha tomado varios dias para familiarizarme con su funcionamiento, ya que pasé de tener un telefono regular a este increiblemente funcional aparatito y el cambio ha sido un salto cualitativo notorio, su procesador de 800 mhz es bastante rapido y eficiente. La pantalla tactil es de muy buena calidad, sensible, resistente a rayones (gorilla glass), con decente definicion y brillos asombrosos. Su camara toma fotos de una calidad aceptable, y el video corre muy bien. El tamaño del telefono sin ser pequeño, lo hace adecuado para llevarlo en el bolsillo sin mayor problema, ni la incomodidad de smartphones mas grandes y de mayor rango y precio.
Android como sistema operattivo es muy amigable e intuitivo, facil de usar y me encanta ya que potencia todo lo que puedes hacer con un telefono y mas!
Funciona muy bien con la red 3G de mi pais (Costa Rica). Simplemente insertar el SIM y listo, a los pocos minutos ya estaba enlazado y funcionando adecudamente, no crei que seria tan sencillo para ser honestos!
La unica cosa negativa que podria decir hasta ahora es la corta duracion de la bateria al usar varias funciones simultaneamente (problema comun con los smartphones) como ya lo han mencionado en otras calificaciones aqui… Pero esto es facilmente solucionable con un cargador extra en la oficina y otro en casa, y cargarlo diariamente… jeje!
En fin puedo recomendar sin temores a este telefono para aquellos que como yo (sin ser un fanatico por lo ultimo en tecnolgia) ocupamos los beneficios de un buen smartphone de desempeño medio, pero con varias aplicaciones extra que te permitan crecer segun tus necesidades y evolucionar como usuario… Por cierto he escrito esta critica desde mi telefono; lo cual me parece asombroso!!!

I bought this months ago and the phone has been decent for what it was worth.

I had to write one now because I just dropped this phone today. On the ground. It didnt just drop, it flung from my Jacket as I was chasing the bus and smashed into the street pavement. And it still works! It landed face down. I went to pick it up thinking the worst[touchscreen completely obliterated] but the screen was fine! Not a scratch. The edge frame was scratched up badly as I expected but the phone is still working good. The camera, sound all was great. lol

It can take a beating.

I purchased this phone the past year, its yust perfect for me. Android Gingerbread its amazing, in can browse internet PC-like, play a lot of games (Pro-Evolution Soccer like Play Station (yiah!), angrybirds, cut the rope, etc etc.) The social networks looks great and the sensivity for text typing its yust perfect (like iphone).

The 5MP camera its reaaaaly great! im feeling that i have a digital camera and a PC in my hand together.
This is the best phone that i ever had. The size, the camera, GPS (WAZE), all google aplications its yust aaamazing.

If you are thinking about playing games full HD with full 3D graphics.. buy an GALAXY S II.. if not, buy this phone!!!!

Im from Venezuela and its works perfect with movilnet carrier 3G-2G and GSM.

This is a geat phone! It looks cool, feels really good in your hand and is easy to use. I believe this model description says it comes with fryo 2.2 but it actually comes with an upgrade to 2.3. The box also contained a black and white plastic cover for the phone. Both of these were a nice surprise. The picture is clear and really nice. Netflix works really well. Android system allows for an endless supply of apps. I wanted to get an otterbox cover for this phone but it dosnt appear they make one. Oh well. The phone has been great and I would highly recommend it.
