Samsung Galaxy Prevail (Boost Mobile)

A worthy competitor to the LG Optimus line, the Samsung Galaxy Prevail gives Boost Mobile users a lot of Android-powered goodness for their buck.

Front

The Samsung Galaxy Prevail measures 4.4 by 2.3 by .5 inches (HWD) and weighs 3.8 ounces. 

Back

The Prevail's 2-megapixel auto-focus camera has no flash. Photos were surprisingly decent, with a nice pop of color and fair detail, though indoor shots, while usable, weren’t quite as good. 

Angle

The Prevail's 3.2-inch glass capacitive touch screen LCD has 320-by-480-pixel resolution, which is common on midrange Android phones. 

Right

The back of the Prevail is made of a soft-touch black plastic, which gives it a comfortable, luxurious feel in the hand. 

Left

The Prevail looks a bit like T-Mobile's Samsung Galaxy S 4G, with curved edges and a silver border that runs along the outside of the phone’s face.

Angle

Typing on the Prevail's on-screen keyboard felt predictably cramped, but still entirely doable.
