Speaker not as good as other phones, I Guess that's the only Drawback of the phone. it is manageable I would let that go for rest of the features, such as screen ,looks , weight and most of all the touch experience of the phone. It is as good as iphone.

Android is one of the best OS in the world. Samsung might suck(i dont like it either) but dont call Android a bad OS cuz its very similar to Apple's OS(probarbly even better)

Hi all
I'm from India, and I've been using Galaxy S for two days now. Features, looks, screen everything is FINE.
I have couple of issues...
>> Phone heats up like mad when using wi-fi, browsing for more than 10 mins, viewing video for more than 10 mins etc.
>> The battery lasts for jus about 13 hrs with moderate usage and background sync, gps all set to OFF
>> The phone lags at times, given 1Ghz processor and usage 326mb ram, this is not expected out of this. Also I have a task manager to kill applications frequently.
TO BE HONEST, THIS IS A VERY NICE PHONE WITH LOTS OF GOODS, BUT SPOILED BY THIS NEGATIVE THINGS.
Guys, pls let me know if any of you guys facing this problems. Atleast it'l guide other people who want to buy this phone, whether to buy it or not. Also, if samsung has some loyalty towards their customers, it'l be helpful for them to rectify these problems via firmware update if possible.
Thanks
Bala

Guys,
Does this phone have " Internet sharing " ?
I use this Option currently with my Omnia2, so I can use my 3G internet with my laptop via a USB cable.
Does anyone know if this phone has the same option to work as a modem or not ?
Thank you.

I work for the biggest independant mobile company in the uk, hands on the galaxy totally throws other equivilent android phones out of the window with divx player and screen quality. Super amoled is honestly much better and it shows when viewing movies.
Camera is very good but its problem is the lack of a flash, the sony x10 has the best camera by far.
Power wise ive got to about 18 apps and 6 internet pages before i noticed a slowing down of the system.
The htc desire keeps up and the x10 didnt when i ran the same test.
Everybody who whines about the os needing an update.
Its running real sweet already,
Those who complain about battery, You will have to charge your SMART phone EVERY DAY, BOO BLOODY WHO
If u want movies, great internet and keyboard input get a galaxy
If u want great music with direct links to your artists utube videos, camera, social networking, get an X10 when they upgrade the os from its poor 1.6.
The HTC desire is a really intuitive mix of the two and is the best all rounder. I WANA GALAXY.

can u plz tell wer did manage to get for this price
Does this phone have 6-axis accelerometer just like Samsung Epic 4G (galaxy S pro)?
To the people who are worried about the RAM,
Yes this device does have 512MB RAM. But that much memory will only be available in Android 2.2 or Froyo. So until you get the Froyo for this device you will not be able to use the full 512MB RAM. It's just like Windows XP and Vista, where only supports 3GB RAM.
But the BIG question is when will Samsung update the software? Frankly, I think this is the toughest thing to guess. Coz they are the masters of breaking promise. I am eagerly waiting to buy it, but no way before the Froyo update. I've had my lesson with i8910.

i think its absolutely amazing...i compared it to many other phones and its just so commendable.
well what else can i say im so lost for words.
it really has great potential ad lots more can be added. i think its way to good to be ignored though, it seems to be a quiet phone i hadn't heard of it until i read a magazine, i was going to buy the samsung wave ....which is way out the samsung galaxy s'league! the galaxy s is a great phone for teenagers as it has a social hub and it really brightens up for outdoor use...which is absolutely fabulously fierce!...xx
thanks for reading my random opinion....i just wanted to be heard...x this phones been hiding...but i found it atlast...im going to get it soon hopefully, i just got to ask dad :D

a few important things that i prefer over Nexus/Desire / X10 are:
- Daylight capable display
( http://androidandme.com/2010/06/phones/samsung/samsungs-super-amoled-display-takes-on-lcd-and-amoled-in-direct-sunlight/ )
- TV out via headset jack and Wifi (DLNA)
( http://androidandme.com/2010/07/news/samsung-galaxy-s-does-video-out-via-3-5-mm-headset-jack/ )
- Said to have a real multitouch sensor ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVlsRCMltDg / http://androidandme.com/2010/05/news/samsung-galaxy-s-to-also-feature-atmel-maxtouch-sensors/
(very important for future apps, i believe / again something Samsung doesn't state at their pages (see my previous post))
Thats the 3 most important features in my opinion. Fastest Graphicsprocessor for gaming, big internal memory and 4" amoled-display (X10 has only LCD) maybe important to some either.
(I don't own one yet, sadly, but am buying one, as soon as i see the GPS/Ram issues are fixed)

Anonymous, 05 Jul 2010i ran android system info (3rd party app) and it showed me on mine Galaxy S total RAM: 326MB Thanks alot! Do you have any Screenshot by chance?
@Eric: No need to be impolite. I've read the article, and i know about the Froyo "2.6.32 kernel upgrade HIGHMEM support for RAM >256MB"
(see http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2-highlights.html ). Because it can not show the real amount, doesn't mean its there.
I'm just wary because none of the big sources (Amazon.co.uk/.de, Heise, and Samsung itself, e.g.) won't state the Ram. What would be the problem of that?
At least Amazon.com's Preorder Page states 512MB.
Same with the SAR value: at least Heise claims 0,24 W/kg, which would be pretty good. Why don't they market / state things like that? Would impress me more then all the fancy Announcements...
Hello, I am also confused if i shud buy a Galaxy S or a X10 or Desire.I have read samsung has an awesome screen(am yet to see it though), but the lack of flash and very bad loudspeaker are keeping me confused from going ahead and picking it up.
To those who r already using galaxy:: Please tell me if the loudspeaker's voice is manageable or not. Is it enough not to miss any calls even in noisy environments?? Also is the construction really very weak??Somewhere i read in this section itself that it fell once and the screen broke.
and finally is the super amoled really a class above regular amoled or is it just a marketing gimmick of samsung???
having bought a samsung jet before, I know that samsung has this cheek to do over marketing of things which later turns off the buyer when his raised expectations r not met.
When will this mobile get FROYO update??
I dont think samsung will update in 2010.
