I have the Samsung 3 and have for 3yrs and it works great. I'm considering to upgrade to the 5 or 6. I love Samsung and one of the features it has over the iPhone is that it uses a card to store pics, etc on so you don't use up all of your storage so easily. I had the iPhone 4 and 4S and had nothing but trouble but others love it. I agree, check them all out. I know that with Sprint you can switch the phone for a different one within 30 days if you aren't happy with it. sometimes they charge a restocking fee of 30. good luck and I have no problem with reception on mine.
