Samsung Galaxy S

It's Samsung's best smartphone to date, but is it the best in the market?

Vibrant AMOLED display, Fast processor, Customised interface works well

Less than perfect built quality, Mediocre battery life

Samsung Galaxy S Review

Now that the Google Nexus S is available, you may have some second thoughts about picking up the marginally older Samsung Galaxy S platform. Don’t be. The Captivate is a seriously solid phone with a beautiful display, plenty of horsepower, and all the...

Samsung Galaxy S (i9000) Review

Overall the Samsung i9000 Galaxy S is a splendid device and worthy of being a flagship one. In terms of its competitors I suppose its main rivals are currently the HTC Desire and Apples iPhone 4. So how does it compare?

Samsung Galaxy S review -

The Super AMOLED display is one of the most vibrant we?ve ever seen and enhances every aspect of the Samsung Galaxy S

Achieving a GPS fix took longer than we would have liked
