    Bought this phone 8 days ago. Returned it yesterday because the battery wouldn’t its charge more than 2 hrs, even though I was not using it. Today, the new battery lasted 3 hours (on standby only).

    Do I need to rate this phone? Thumb down.

    I bought the SCH-R920 Galaxy Attain a few months ago. I dont kno if it is just my phone, but every now and then it blacks out. Not to mention that the music player app leaves much to be desired, for it does not play the songs to their full length.
