The new Samsung Galaxy S
If you want to spend your money on a mobile phone this Christmas, or you have decided to buy one of your loved ones a new phone as a present, there are many things that can confuse matters a great deal. The sheer amount of mobile phones out there is not the least of these matters and with every mobile manufacturer assuring you that their offering of the latest handsets is the best, it can get overwhelming.
Several impressive phones have come out this year, including Apple’s latest offering, the iPhone 4, and the Blackberry Torch from Research in Motion, but one phone that has got many people talking, and is seen by some as a potential rival to the Blackberry and Apple handset, is the Samsung Galaxy S.
In terms of specifications the Samsung Galaxy S is impressive and in most aspects it does keep up with its major rivals at the very least. The phone contains a 1GHz “Hummingbird” processor with a choice between an 8 or 16 GB internal Flash memory, a 4-inch 480×800 pixel (PenTile)Super AMOLED capacitive touch screen display, which is probably the best on the market barring the iPhone. If you thought that was it as well you were wrong, for you fans of photography out there it has a 5-megapixel camera and a VGA front-facing camera too.
In terms of aesthetics, the phone looks great (although does look quite similar to the iPhone) and follows the recent trends of phones being super stream lined. The Galaxy S avoids falling into the trap of feeling cheap because of this and although the screen is four inches, it is not too large as to feel or look cumbersome.
With the quickly improving Android software at its heart and Samsung’s own hardware expertise holding it together, this experienced Korean manufacturer has produced a real gem of a phone and is one of the only handsets out there that seems to have the ability to challenge Apple’s dominance in the smart phone market.
