Samsung I9000 Galaxy S

Samsung Galaxy S has been always the rival to iPhone since i was released. The Samsung Galaxy S is an Android smartphone that was announced by Samsung in March 2010. It certainly has it own specification that everyone would like to have in their phone. Here goes the list:

1. Screen

The Samsung Galaxy S uses a 4.0-inch (100 mm) Super AMOLED touch screen of WVGA resolution. The screen is covered by Gorilla Glass, a special crack and scratch resistant material. 

2. Processor

The slim fit case has a room for 1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird CPU and  512 MB of RAM. .At 1 GHz the processor speed may seem similar to other phones sporting a Snapdragon but the Intrinsity-Hummingbird (S5PC110) is capable of processing 3 times more triangles per second than these other chipsets. 

3.   User Interface 

The customizations start on the homescreen where you have up to seven panes to populate with widgets. The task switcher has been untouched by the TouchWiz changes, but the notification area has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and sound toggles on top. These are quite handy when you need to turn any of these features on or off – no more digging in the Settings.

4. Excellent phonebook

Samsung I9000 Galaxy S has a phonebook with massive functionality and practically unlimited capacity.

The handset displays the phone memory, SIM-stored and all Google contacts in the phonebook. 

5. Swype predictive text input

This is one of the feature that I like the most. It literally means that you just have to sweep the words at the keypad.The high precision means that even fast sweeps will be recognized correctly, so you can enter text very quickly and keep the error rate reasonably low. It has broke the New Guinness record by texting words in the fastest way.

Here is a video to get an idea about swype feature.

6. Other features include 

• Quad-band GSM and tri-band 3G support
• 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA support

There is no perfect phone and it's the case for Samsung Galaxy S too. The Galaxy S is all made of plastic and this makes the gadget looks cheap sometimes.
