Samsung Cell Phones
I have owned a handful of cell phones in my lifetime and the majority of them were Samsung cell phones. I have both good and bad things to say about them but I will focus on the bad in order to warn potential customers of possible aggravations they may encounter if they choose to purchase one of these phones. It seems to me that Sprint and the retailers that sell these phones talk enough about the good anyway.
I am a Sprint PCS customer and the majority of cell phones available under my plan are Samsung cell phones. In the last five years, I have gone through at least four Samsung cell phones and each have, at one point or another, died on me. Many have had batteries that did not hold a charge very well or for very long. Others overheated and ceased to work. Some were so light that the structural soundness was compromised.
I have found that Samsung cell phones are smaller and lighter than many of the others offered by Sprint. Many Samsung cell phones have a lot of nifty gadgets like cameras and impressive music capabilities. It may be that Samsung sacrifices some of the quality of its phones in order to make them more playful and attractive to younger consumers. Any time you have a product that is enhanced with any form of technology without going up in price, you must assume that something else was taken away in order to make up the difference on the manufacturer's end.
One complaint I have about Samsung cell phones is that they have a tendency to burn up. I had one phone that overheated and then the led screen burned up. It looked as though the led display had melted on the inside. The screen went black and could not be repaired.

I think that most of the problems I have encountered with Samsung cell phones may stem from the fact that Sprint, like many cell phone manufacturers or retailers, refurbish as many phones as possible in order to save money. Sprint will take used and broken phones, scrap them for parts, and attempt to rebuild the phones in order to resell them.
I have no idea if any of the Samsung cell phones that I have purchased through Sprint were refurbished or not but I believe that some of them were. I know for a fact that when I took a defective one to a Sprint store to be replaced, they provided me with a "new" phone which was actually a refurbished one. This refurbished phone did not last very long before it too started to die on me.

One good thing that has come out of my aggravating experiences with Samsung cell phones is that I have found that there are now multiple websites that buy used cell phones. On the average, I have received twenty dollars per phone for the used Samsung cell phones that I hold sold. Sprint can recycle used cell phones in order to make a profit and then pass the refurbished goods back to the consumer. Now the consumer has the option to make that profit themselves by selling their unwanted phones.
