A Review of the Samsung Galaxy S

May 21st, 2011 posted by admin

A mobile phone packed with features, the Samsung Galaxy S is a direct competitor to the likes of Apple, BlackBerry, HTC and Nokia. It looks somewhat similar to the HTC Desire, and has an Android operating system with a large 4 inch AMOLED colour touchscreen. This touchscreen, according to Samsung, is the brightest available phone touchscreen in the market.

This lightweight phone also packs in a 5 megapixel camera (albeit with no flash) and the now expected features of video recording, music playback and internet browsing. There is social networking support and you can use Facebook, Twitter and Flickr on this phone. Apps can also be downloaded from the Samsung app store or the Android Market store on the internet. Samsung’s built in customised widgets on the phone are also a treat to use.

Samsung has also packed in a very fast 1 gigahertz processor to power the many applications found in the Galaxy S. Some cool stuff that comes bundled with the phone’s software is the proximity sensor, accelerometer sensor, and digital Compass. The touchscreen also has a great feature of running your thumb over the on-screen keyboard to quickly type out emails, text messages and internet addresses. At the same time it is quite sturdy, however, don’t try your luck by carelessly dropping it off a 10 storied building or into an utensil full of heating oil!

The phone also comes pre-loaded with Google Maps and a GPS, which allows you to navigate and get directions to places. Google Voice also comes pre-loaded and lets you search and type using your own voice. As Google makes the Android operating system, you can expect the phone to be in sync with all Google applications, synonymous with speed, innovation and efficiency.

As far as touchscreen smartphones go, the Samsung Galaxy S is a great phone. It has become quite popular in the UK, and there are some great schemes which offer the phone with talktime loaded at a competitive price.
