Seen by many as the main rival to the Apple iPhone 4, the Samsung Galaxy S boasts an impressive spec list which includes a 5 megapixel camera, heaps of internal storage, and one of the most impressive touchscreens on the market.
The dimensions of the handset are 122.4x 64.2 in order to accommodate the 4 inch screen. It is surprisingly slimline, however, at just 9.9mm and light weight at 119 grams. This makes it comfortable to hold and use, and highly portable, easily fitting into a handbag or pocket.
The 4 inch super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen offers stunning display quality. Up to 16 million individual colours are displayed, within the screen which measures 480x 800 in terms of pixels. This makes the Samsung Galaxy S an ideal multimedia phone, displaying photos and videos in the utmost quality. The screen is also generously proportioned at 4 inches, making it great for viewing full screen media or playing games.
Both vibration and ringing are used to keep users aware of alerts such as messages, phonecalls and emails, with the added option to assign MP3 and WAV music files as ringtones, offering an aspect of customisation.
Either 8 GB or 16 GB of onboard storage (depending on what model is purchased), allowing users to store their entire digital music collection or any other files they wish on the phone. The Samsung Galaxy S also comes with an integrated microSD card slot. This can accommodate a memory card of up to 32 GB, allowing the storage to double or even quadruple.
To browse the internet, both 3G coverage and Wi-Fi are called upon to provide the optimum browsing experience. In areas with 3G coverage, an HSDPA connection provides speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps, however a faster and more reliable connection can be achieved with Wi-Fi connectivity. This depends on access to local wireless networks, in commercial and domestic lactations, but there is an increasing number of public Wi-Fi hotspots appearing all over the country. GPRS and EDGE keep the Samsung Galaxy S connected to the appropriate cellular networks, whilst Bluetooth and micro USB connections allow users to connect the handset to compatible hardware devices.
A 5 megapixel camera caters for both photography enthusiasts and those who like to take spontaneous snapshots when out and about with friends and family. Still images are of good quality, and enhanced further by autofocus, touch focus, face & smile detection as well as geo-tagging. The latter utilises GPS to keep track of where users took their photos. As an alternative to still images, the camera can also shoot video footage, and this is in no less than 720p (HD) quality.
The Samsung Galaxy S ships with Android 2.1 installed, but this can be upgraded to 2.2 and later versions. This versatile and highly powerful software works wonders in conjunction with a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. Users can access the Android Market to download apps from many different categories, all of which are handles with ease thanks to the processor under the hood.
If you are looking for a smartphone which has it all, but want something different from the norm, the Samsung Galaxy S is a great choice.
