5 Samsung Infuse 4G Features That'll Drive You Mad

The Samsung Infuse 4G is known for its slim, sleek, and stylish design, powerful hardware, entertainment features and fast networking speeds, and although the Infuse 4G is an advanced smartphone, it has a few shoddy features as well.

Low Resolution for Screen Size

One of the best features of the Samsung Infuse 4G is it's huge and vibrant 4.5 inch display which [in theory] is best for watching movies, browsing the web, using apps, playing games, and even reading eBooks, but the resolution of the Samsung Infuse 4G is a bit too small for its screen size. This smartphone has a seemingly high screen resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, but on the Infuse 4G's large screen, it makes icons look bulky and just about ruins the 4.5 inch display.

Could Use Some Software Updates (TouchWiz 3.0 and Android 2.2)

As arguably one of the most advanced smartphones on the market, the Samsung Infuse 4G is sporting lots of inferior software. The Infuse 4G runs on Android 2.2 Froyo and TouchWiz 3.0 and has yet to upgrade to TouchWiz 4.0 and Android 2.3 Gingerbread '" although both have been released to other smartphones on the market. While lots of its competitors are giving their users the latest and greatest in software, the Samsung Infuse 4G has yet to take advantage of the new features available in Android 2.3 Gingerbread and TouchWiz 4.0.

Slow 4G

One of the biggest selling points of the Samsung Infuse 4G is it's 4G networking capabilities [heck, it's in the name], but lots of Infuse 4G owners are in uproar due to how slow AT&T's 4G network is. Many are claiming that the 4G speeds of the Infuse 4G aren't true 4G speeds and are more like 3G speeds '" making the networking speeds of this smartphone a bit disappointing.

Inferior Processing Speed

In this modern day and age of technology where smartphones are known to serve as secondary computers and it's not too uncommon to find a smartphone boasting dual-core processors, the processor of the Samsung Infuse 4G might leave a lot to be desired. The Infuse 4G features a 1.2 GHz Samsung Hummingbird Cortex A8 processor '" which is about half as slow as leading smartphones and is likely to be obsolete in the near future.

Battery Drainage

Although the advertised 8 hours of max talk time and 400 hours of max standby time of the 1750 mAh battery inside the Samsung Infuse 4G might seem great '" real world experience proves that this smartphone's battery isn't worth its weight in gold. The battery of the Infuse 4G drains regardless of if it's being used or not and will likely not last a full 24 hours.
