    CAN'T believe it can't be...first of all:
    -No SD card
    -Only for T-mobile for now
    -No gorilla glass (anti-scratch)

    and now:

    -D1 video (2 years old technology)

              Did they set out to copy iphone weaknesses, no expandable memory and no radio.

              Looks like these got sacraficed to try and keep the price down and yet it still costs more than the iphone sim free.

              I suppose when you consider both google and samsung will want a cut of the profits its not suprising you end up with an over priced phone. I bet HTC took a much small % of the nexus one because of the opportunity it gave them to build there brand name being associated with such a high profile phone.

                [deleted post]Wow, i see someone is not happy with their iJunk and trying to justify owning one. If you think iOS is better than Android that you and your brainwashed iSteve buddies are pretty much alone on this. Android is outselling iOS 10 to 1 as we speak. Also 62% of all the people that got iPhone 4 returned within 2 weeks and got a Android phone. Look it up on business Weekly. Now go play with your iTap, launch the iVibrate app, open the vaseline and take the evening of.

                      Galaxy S is a much better choice than Nexus S.
                      I have used Galaxy S and IPhone4 and N8 and HTC Desire and X10 (I now/still have a Galaxy S and a HTC Desire) and Galaxy S is by far the best and most usable of these phones. IPhone4 and N8 and HTC Desire and X10 all have their individual strengths, camera on N8..., but Galaxy S is the most complete of them all.

                        its not really to blame sammy...

                        Google has chosen all the hardwares and softwares that they will put in this phone. Sammy just provided all the hardwares that Google has asked them to supply. But D1 videos? Seriously google?

                          Guys look at win phone 7, I be used Sammy android phones from 1.6 to 2.1 but in the end hot fed up with laggy interface even on galaxy s, now shifted to win phone 7, I love the fluidity of the interface. In mu opinion if Microsoft continue dev as committed it can surpass every current mobile os.

                                      [deleted post]How about you stop coming on this site altogether? Honestly if you are so happy with your iPhone why do you bother coming on this site and viewing other phones. Are you trying to justify your purchase? There are plenty of iPhone fan sites
                                      available so we would all appreciate if you just went there and stop commenting on Gsmarena. The goes for troller as well
