We tested the Samsung I9000 Galaxy S and it tested us in return. It bared its teeth at us and so did we. Ours was a grin. Easy boy, good beast. There goes the new leader of the Android pack. The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S has oomph to spare and even hardened geeks like us cannot help but acknowledge its compelling power.
If you are looking for the ultimate Android device, there are very few things really to make you consider another handset. read more →
- Quad-band GSM and tri-band 3G support
- 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA support
- 4" 16M-color Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen of WVGA (480 x 800 pixel) resolution
- Android OS v2.1 with TouchWiz 3.0 UI customization
- 1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird CPU; 512 MB of RAM
- No flash for the camera
- No dedicated camera key
- The all-plastic body is a real fingerprint magnet
- Feeble loudspeaker
Samsung obviously sees a future in the Galaxy S line, which is why it is continuing to push an 'old' handset when the new one is selling by the truckload.
There are a few faults, but on the whole it's a cracking bit of kit, and you really could do a lot worse. You can't do much better for the price, put it that way. read more →
- Superb screen
- Cheaper price
- Slim chassis
- Great audio quality
- HD video recording
- No unified inbox
- No more updates?
- Wi-Fi not too strong
- No camera flash
We'd be hard pressed not to acknowledge Samsung's recent efforts in the smartphone market. It even introduced its own mobile OS recently, but for this particular handset, Samsung is counting on Android, which certainly seems like the right thing to do. Samsung is also keeping the innovation going on hardware level, where the Samsung GALAXY S I9000 benefits from a giant Super AMOLED screen and a 1GHz Hummingbird CPU. All in all, we think the Samsung GALAXY S is a really cool phone, with just a few quirks, the biggest of which is the lack of camera flash. read more →
- 4” Super AMOLED screen
- High-definition video with 30fps
- Plays DivX/Xvid video in big resolutions
- Preinstalled documents editor
- Start time is on the slow side with some applications
- No flash leads to poor low light performance
- Plastic look and feel
The Samsung Galaxy S i9000 brings the power of Android in a sleek and speedy package. read more →
The Galaxy S should have been a cracking handset and in many ways it is. Its screen is very good, it's fast, it's packed with features, and looks pretty decent as well. Certainly if you're looking for a large and powerful Android smartphone, it's up there with the best. However, there's no escaping the fact that it feels like a blatant copy of a certain other phone and, moreover, it doesn't have the fit and finish to really make you want it. read more →
- Vibrant AMOLED display
- Fast processor
- Customised interface works well
- Less than perfect built quality
- Mediocre battery life
