Hi FOlks,
I bought this phone thinking it'll be better than my Samsung Spica. Its not what they claim it to be...
Battery : On 3G the back up was 11 hours of standby time with 45 minutes of talk time. Nowhere near
Stand-by Up to 620 h (2G) / Up to 510 h (3G)
Talk time Up to 15 h 30 min (2G) / Up to 7 h 15 min (3G).
The OS / processor is so slow. I opened a website on the Samsung 3 along with my Spica. Samsung 3 took 90 second more than it took on the Spica. This phone has more RAM and ROM but is pathetically slow.
This is not only on GPRS but even on WIFI.
The calls get cut off very fast - I mean most times in 3 seconds flat.
The screen resolution is BAAAD. Its like reading an OLD BADLY PHOTOCOPIED PAPER.
I bought this because of the newer OS (2.1) and thought it would be faster than the Older Samsung Spica which has Android OS Ver 1.5. The apps from Android Market is good but because the speed is so slow it doesnt seem good.
The camera is marginally better than the spica.
I was also disappointed that it didn't have Laptop tethering like Samsung Wave. Wave's tethering was very good and since this was released much after the WAVE I thought it would be standard feature on all future models.
The GPS is very slow too.
Overall, I feel that Samsung had made and released a mobile phone which is going to bring down Galaxy S because of it performance.
Hope Samsung will do something to rectify these mistakes and give an update soon.

Is it true that with Android you cannot download the applications using your PC but you must use the phone ????
With Kies you can use the PC...

In short, the battery backup is better than most other highly dangerous (read HTC wildfire, SE Xperia) and moderately dangerous(read Nokia 5800) so called smartphones.

A 1500 MAh battery would at the minimum give you 7 hours of talktime. With average usage(i.e., 2 hrs of calls+ 4 hours of music + 2 hours of web browsing per day), it will easily go on for 3 days.

I also request the forum members to communicate the information about SAR to as many people as you know and prevent people from falling prey to mobile phone radiation.
I used to hate Samsung but started liking it after knowing the SAR value and its significance. HTC and Sony ericsson phones have the highest SAR(most dangerous..!!). SAR values of each model are available on GsmArena. they are also available on their respective company websites.

This is the best smartphone at this range and one can get it with eyes closed. It has the following advantages when compared to HTC wildfire or Nokia 5800 which are in the same range:
1.Better display.
2.Better audio quality.
3.SAR level is only 0.58 (where as Nokia 5800 has 1.0 and HTC wildfire has around 1.3).
Buying a phone with lower SAR is important as Mobile phone radiation is known to cause Loss of fertility, sleeplessness, irritation, memory loss DNA damage and dangerous health hazards. Govt rules prevent selling of phones with SAR value more than 1.6.
