The Samsung i9000 Galaxy S is an Android smartphone which has been hailed by many as an iPhone beater since its recent release. A comparison of the spec sheets of the two indicates that this is not an unfair statement.
The Samsung Galaxy S features include a 4 inch super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, which is capable of displaying up to 16 million colours within its pixel resolution of 480x 800. This makes it an ideal multimedia device, given its ability to display photos and videos in superb clarity and detail. The screen also features proximity and accelerometer sensors, the innovative Swype text input feature, and the TouchWiz 3.0 UI.
Users are alerted to incoming calls and messages by way of vibration and ringing, with the added bonus of supporting MP3 and WAV music files as ringtones.
The Samsung Galaxy S features 8 GB of internal storage (although a 16 GB version is also available), which is great news for those who like to store a large number of music tracks on their phone. Also, 32 GB of additional storage can be achieved thanks to the integrated micro SD card slot, simply by installing an appropriate memory card.
In order to stay connected to cellular networks, the Samsung Galaxy S utilises class 12 versions of EDGE and GPRS. Internet access is provided initially via 3G coverage whereby an HSDPA connection provides download speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps. A faster connection can be attained however, thanks to Wi-Fi, whenever users have access to local wireless networks. Additional connectivity features include Bluetooth and micro USB which allow the handset to be connected to other compatible hardware devices.
The Samsung Galaxy S is equipped with a versatile, powerful and easy to use 5 megapixel digital camera. Thanks to its high pixel resolution, it takes great quality still images, as well as boasting the ability to shoot HD video footage in 720p quality. Built in features of the camera include autofocus, touch-focus and face & smile detection, which all aim to simplify the task of taking quality pictures.
Whatever you are looking for in a smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S deserves a spot on your shortlist. Thanks to the versatile Android OS which allows additional apps to be downloaded from Android Market, and powerful hardware such as the 4 inch screen and a 1GHz processor, the potential of the phone is endless.
