- 1Ghz ARM Cortex-A8(slightly faster than Snapdragon)
- PowerVR SGX540 GPU(3x faster than Snapdragon)
This phone will have much better graphic responsiveness for the UI and most important for 3D games.
This Chip is the top of the top in the smartphone market for now.

Snapdragon is also a SoC, so when we say snapdragon or hummingbird we don't mean the CPU only. But people get it like that.

Anonymous, 22 May 2010All you guys complaining at the low RAM, have you seen the speed of this device in the videos?... moreyeah you are right ... RAM should not be a problem
speed is already quite good and in the future when Froyo arrived (stable) it is going to be better than this time as Froyo is already 2-5X faster than Eclair
I love reading how all you iphone clones bag samsung. You are using a samsung phone. Processor, memory, music chip, screen, all samsung components. you should be thanking samsung for giving you such a nice device!!
Its not on there front page yet but here is there review O_o http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9000_galaxy_s-review-478.php
All you guys complaining at the low RAM, have you seen the speed of this device in the videos? Clearly RAM isn't a problem, when it can run widgets and still be this speedy. We will have to see how it can handle a lot of applications at once, but I don't think RAM is a limitation on android phones like it is on computers or winmo phones.
Also, the fact that this looks like an iphone is a GOOD thing. The iphone is a very pretty device, with a nice user interface. It is just useless at all the other things. If Samsung have made an iphone running android that works well, and has more features than any other phone out there, then that is FANTASTIC. I would never buy an iphone, but I would absolutely buy a galaxy s.
The lack of flash is (to me) not important. I can understand some people being annoyed, but I don't think I have ever used my flash when taking pictures with my phone, as they never come out as good as they would with good lighting. That is just my opinion, though.
If it truly has 256MB of RAM, instead of 512, then it's a guaranteed FAIL as a top-end Android phone.
There's something fishy about the fact that Samsung refuses to release the full specifications for this phone (including RAM amount).
Anonymous, 21 May 2010lol
256 MB RAM ?
lol u samsungAgreed, 256MB for this device is really low, in fact 256MB is the only weakness this device had apart from not having a camera flash.
If it only had a 512MB and a flash, it would've been PERFECT!
spam, 21 May 2010funny people complaining about the apparaent low speed of this handset and the beam have any o... moreI dont like both iphone and your Samsung crap. You said me isheep because I had said that Galaxy S is photo copy of Iphone with cool features. Lol. So where I was wrong.? Since you dont have any word to say. And mind it Beam also is a product by Samsung. And Samsung dont have flash on Galaxy S because they dont want to make it competitor of beam. They make Galaxy S as a competitor of Iphone. And You say Beam is faster than iphone ha ha ha, what a joke. You should know iphone with 600 mhz is much faster than many phones with 1ghz processor. Like it or not all of my words are true.
And yeah, I'm more interested on X10 and N8 rather than this phone or iphone. This phone has only one advantage in my opinion that is Super Amoled. Super Amoled is good in day but what about night. The over sharpness can also affect your eyes. And Touchwiz, Its look so childish, see the ui of X10, even it is on 1.6 but still it is far better than Galaxy S. I well know you Samsung fanboys are not going to digest my words but they are true, you like it or not..
lol
256 MB RAM ?
lol u samsung

Anonymous, 21 May 2010Some people are even dumber, when you talk about a camera flash, and people think you mean ado... moreso true so true.... ^^ also i have to add that every company has copied the iphone in one way or another, i do agree that the design couldve been a little sicker but its dimensions and supersexygetmeafucknerectionSCREEN makes up for the design....
conclusion: ADD Titanium/sick case for it, you can actually add alot to it since its as thin as a cookie ;)
god i'm such a fanboy^^

Well well guys, I'm not a fan of Samsung. This phone is total photo copy of iphone but they add some more cool features. So this should not be called flagship device.
