Review 121 for Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy Proclaim Prepaid Cell Phone

Samsung Galaxy Proclaim would overall be a decent phone if I could actually hear the calls! The voice quality of calls is very poor. Either callers can't hear me or I can't hear them. Even the ring isn't clear. I do love how there is no buffering with videos and the resolution is fine enough for me. Texting is simple although I'd like bigger buttons, but it isn't bad. I am having a hard time putting music on the phone. Even free downloads it wants me to put in my credit card numbers. I don't trust someone won't hack into my Google account so I don't like that. I wouldn't recommend this phone as you can't hear voices clearly. For the money I would expect better sound quality.

Great phone for $150 vs. $300 for the next Samsung model. Screen and keys for text messages could be bigger but overall it's a great phone. Also, it fits well into a front pocket for easy carrying.

The phone is an awesome deal And it is so much better than my old Samsung Replenish. the touch screen is a good size and works great with a good resolution. the battery is very long and the Google Play store works great. the phone is super fast and I like the web browser plus the internal memory is fabulous. I wanted the Motorola defy but now I'm glad I have this instead. the 3g is lightning fast and the service is great. I love this perfect phone and would recommend to anyone. the customer service is great and the man was nice even though he had a strong accent. setting up the phone was easy and overtime this plan will save money thank you straight talk!

I believe this phone is the best phone I've ever had! It is simply amazing! I have been a Straight talk customer since 2008. This is hands down the best model to start with if your like me, and new to the smart phones. This phone is very quick and can easily multi-task on almost every option. The memory and processor are perfect for my day to day life, and the apps I tend to use. The talk to text feature is exciting! Works for the best of us, smart phone rookies! The touch screen is easy to use, and believe it or not, fat finger friendly! All in all, if your looking for, or looking to get a new smart phone, here is the one for you!

I am very happy with my purchase of this phone. I have the phone activated and the process was simple. The phone also synced with my 2010 Ford Explorer (Microsoft Sync My Ride). It works with my home Wi-Fi too. Voice Mail was simple to set up. I really like the voice search feature and voice text messaging. Adding contacts is simple.
For setup and activation just follow the instructions that come with the phone.

Great first smartphone

I have been with ST for 1 year, had the Samsung 451C, with slider qwerty. I live in a very rural area and must run off Verizon towers, the Proclaim does. After watching my 10-year-old granddaughter use her smartphone, I wanted one too. I love this phone! I was skeptical about using a virtual keyboard, and had trouble with it in the beginning, then discovered Swype. Yay! Text very quickly now. The Proclaim has great signal, is fast on 3G, picks up my wireless with no problem, synced with all my email accounts. I'm still learning all its features. Call clarity is much better than the 451C. Ringer is loud. Is lighter than the 451C. Got a cover for it on eb*y. Takes good pictures. I downloaded my favorite games quickly from Google Play. GPS works great. Battery runs down much quicker than old phone, so I turn off 3G and wireless, GPS when not in use. I love this phone, and love saving money not being tied to a contract. TY ST!!

Excellent Straight Talk Service!

I previously had the straight talk precedent. I loved the phone, but the service was unbearable! I had more dropped calls than I did successful calls. I live in a rural area and was told that was the cause of all of the "bad service". The real reason for the bad calls was the towers that the Precedent worked off of. The proclaim runs off of Verizon towers, and is the only straight talk smart phone that does! This new phone has not given me any problems at all. In areas where my old phone was unusable, this phone has at least three signal bars. The battery on this phone also has lasted me all day, where as the old phone would have to be charged by around 5:00pm. Also another plus for this phone is the storage space. Not only does it come with a 2gb sd card, but also has much more internal memory for those pesky apps that can not be moved to your sd card! This phone was well worth the money I spent for it.

Excellent Phone For the Price

I bought one of these phones for my girlfriend about eight months ago and liked it so much that I bought one for myself later. At that time they were $180, and I was very happy with the quality for the price.
Its 1GB of internal memory means it doesn't suffer lag time like most cheap smart phones. Its battery life is better than most smart phones. I charge it every night and occasionally during my lunch break, and it rarely goes below 50%.
If you buy one I'd suggest looking for CDMA-V on the packaging, this means it runs of Verizon's prepaid network. I've had excellent service except in some very remote locations. For $45 a month its probably the best cell phone deal you can ask for.
If you buy this phone here are a few tips:
-Opera is a much better web browser than the one the phone comes with.
-The phones GPS will work better if you get the GPS Status App.
-If you have trouble receiving picture or multimedia text messages, turn off the Auto-Retreive option.
-Create a new google account for with your phone or it will try to add all the old email addresses you haven't used in years to your phone's address book.
-Buy a screen protector. If it gets scratched up, no big deal.

I was skeptical when I was looking for a new phone that was still a prepaid. I've been with StraightTalk for the past few years and did NOT want to enter into a contract. This is a great phone in my opinion. I've had no issues with it so far & I have been using it for a couple weeks. The biggest downfall it seems to have is the battery life is not exceptionally long. I've purchased an extra charger to keep at work so I can use my phone more often while working. Other than that, I love it and the service has been a lot better with the Droid than my previous phone had using AT&T towers.

Way better than i expected it to be, especially the service. i literally live in the middle of no where and i get 3g and 1-3 bars 97% of the time. People usually have to stand next to a window or go outside to make a call or send a text with their phones but with the proclaim i get service throughout my house. my sister already plans on buying one for herself and my mother is thinking about it also. I was apprehensive with the price but it turned out being a good deal. im very happy with my purchase and would recommend this phone to anyone. so far ive only had it freeze on me once so i had to power it down, it may have been bc it was the first it was used but since then ive had no problems.

I haven't had any dropped called, but as someone else stated, it is easy to hang up on someone while talking because of a side feature that your finger may touch accidently that causes you to end calls. Needs charging everyday. Battery life doesn't seem to last that long. Overall, it's a decent phone. The price value is about $50.00 to high, but I needed a phone desperately and wanted one on the Verizon network through Straighttalk.
