Samsung GALAXY S I9000 Review
0. phoneArena posted on 24 Jun 2010, 10:41
The Samsung GALAXY S I9000 comes with a huge 4” Super AMOLED display, significantly larger than the only other such screen on the market – the 3.3” one of the Samsung Wave. This gorgeous window to the phone's soul is hinged to another novelty from Samsung – the 1GHz Hummingbird heart of the device...

I am from portugal and iphone 4 is very expensive and to buy by a plan is worthless here, the prices are ridiculous for the poor service they offer. I am relutent to choose between iphone 4 16Gb (699 euros, vodafone) towards the Sgs for 215 euros ( blocked to another operator that i dont use but i can get for 215 euros and i saw in a forum that i can unlock and then lock again for warranty purposes). I have a iphone 3g ( jailbroken) and i must say the apps are the best and i think iphone in terms of apps is the best but only if u have it jailbroken. I need an opinion ... what to choose , it looks obvious by the price difference , do u think its worth to pay the 699 euros (i can get the sgs for 215)?? what bothers me a bit on the sgs is the lack of flash. Some advice would be nice :)

Hi everyone, upgraded myself to this sleek Samsung Galaxy S i9000, after lots of research, it was a tough decision as all the similar latest models had almost similar features, the fast speed 1GB hummingbird processor, good battery life, excellent GPS features & really amazingly clear screen made me decide to select this model over others. Since almost over five weeks of usage no call drops, no phone hangs or freezes, no sync problems, has given me true satisfaction of my wise decision to pick this phone. Wi-Fi & blue tooth usage has much less battery drain compared to its competitors (no names please). Video calling is charm on this phone 'cos of 1GB processor. Radio usage reception is excellent almost always. With 32GB memory, watched "AVATAR" in HD on my i9000 and at end of it I used 50% battery - not bad eh! Amazing masterpiece created by Samsung Galaxy S team. Overall performance is excellent for my usage. My advice buy the model which suits your usage habits, this model for sure is way ahead of others per my personal research, usage & satisfaction.

Galaxy S is crap, buy one on June 20, 2011 and July 12, 2011 half of the screen is turned black. I have NEVER been dropped and has not wet. The worst thing is that the course provider company and its "technical" check the phone and says he has a shock and the warranty does not cover it, now want to buy the phone for more than $ 600 and I paid $ 250 initially with a two-year contract. Actually writing to advise you not to pay much money for this phone that does not work, in my case the screen went black, plus frieze screen constantly and having problems with volume. It's garbage..

I bought a “Samsung Galaxy S" cost of rs.19900/- on 23rd of Aug 2011. On 25th Aug 2011 while typing SMS/Email I noticed some keys (H, Y, B) were not working at all. Also its touch not working like it was on first day. On the same day (25th Aug) I immediately meet with dealer (Spice Hot-Spot, Malviya Nagar, Main Mkt, New Delhi-17) for replacement so he told me to go to service center for this issue. In Samsung’s Service Center (Nehru Place) I asked them to replace it but they will not taking any action and said that they will only repair the phone instead of replacement. But I don’t want to use a repair phone as I purchase it on 23rd Aug and spend my 19900/- Rs. Please do some measurable action.

I have been using a samsung galaxy s for a while now and I have to say that apart from the good looks there is nothing great about the phone. It has major software issues and keeps crashing ever so often! And when that happens there is nothing one can do apart from watching helplessly as the various screens keep toggling.....even restarting the phone doesn't help sometimes. Trust me, its not what you expect when you buy a phone that costly. I think Samsung should quit making phones and stick to refrigerators instead!

The PROBLEM is the battery, it is easily to discharge, you will not enjoy to use your GALAXY S, you needed to recharge it for more than three hours then you can use it for less than a day ha ha ha ha ha also if you need extra battery and obviously extra charger for battery it will cost too much expensive.
So if you want for a longer life of your battery don't use your Galaxy phone, Okay !
HA HA HA HA HA HA.....
