- AutoIt shows that it is Galaxy
When I say that you can tell that it's Galaxy, I'm referring to the quality of the materials, the feel it has in the hand and the brightness of the screen... small details in the others don't exist and a good daytime camera (less the night one). ...better than many more expensive ones. Drop resistant. For day-to-day use it runs smoothly and doesn't pause, with regular updates, I'm already on system 12... and the battery lasts well over a day, I'd say two and a half
