The phone

The average battery life depends upon the number of apps that you have activated on your phone. However, with a few apps such as Facebook, Skype, Mail etc. it can offer the time of 24h (with 3G active ofc). As for the speed of the phone, depends upon with what you're comparing the speed of the phone to. If you're comparing it with that of a HTC One M8 or Z2 you'll be somewhat disappointed but if you're comparing it with that of the other phones in its price range, then yes its speed is quite good as it uses a Qualcomm 400 chipset, though again if you hvae a lot of apps active the 1GB RAM fills up quickly and might slow the phone down. Overall it's a pretty decent set in its price range

Bootlegger my current device is the Samsung Galaxy S2 epic 4g

I upgraded from the same phone. Easily double the battery life, and significantly faster. I've been running it with 4G and GPS always on. Haven't even had to worry about the battery making it through the day, usually only have to charge it every other day, and I spend a good amount of time in areas with flaky signal due to work.
