The Samsung galaxy s1 ís the best phone. It is called the Galaxy S, but I pronounce it as the S1. Sure it may have no flash, but for its looks, a good phone for anyone born in the 1990s

          i had this phone 5 years ago, it was an excellent phone back then. it was my first phone with a super amoled display, since then i was biased to amoleds vs lcd. i have a galaxy s6 edge+ now. looking back, the galaxy s series has come a long way in terms of specs.
          i really enjoyed using the original galaxy s, the overall performance and features were way beyond the other phones (including the iphone 4) during that time.

                    Ram, 25 Nov 2012I wish buy a samsung galaxy s , so have any problem that phone ? Yes there is a problem.GSM Arena obviously relies on synthetic tests for the audio quality and not their ears.This phone sounds like utter garbage.Several custom roms later it STILL sounds like UTTER garbage.Nothing will help it.My old Sony Ericsson k750 DEVOURS it in terms of audio quality..and camera too.Galaxy S really is a SHIT phone don't buy it.

                            My office colleague bought this mobile last week and has a problem saving the contacts. Is there a limited number of digits for a contact name? - as he wants to save the full name - eg. Abdulla Nasser Mohammed Al Busaidi - which he was able to do with his previous Nokia mobile.

                                      may be it uses the rest of the ram for internal process so that the phone should not hang if third party applications causes a memory issue

                                        I think as of now NO one noticed that the samsing I9000 is having issue with RAM. it will show you max of 329 MB with 2.3.3 updated. My phone is 1 month old and samsung did lot of work but there is no solution for the problem. Please dont buy this peace of Junk. believe me its not worth for the money what we pay
