Hi All,

I brought Samsung galaxy s on last Saturday. I am facing a problem is that when the battery becomes low the CPU usage is becoming 63%. I don’t know why this is happening. Usually what I do is I switch off my mobile and then switch it on. At this time the CPU usage becomes 0%. Can anyone help me to bring down my CPU usage when the battery is low?

      I'm starting to think people are bitching and moaning about the lack of camera flash just because it's not there, not because it would add to the overall user experience.
      I've had the Galaxy S for 11 days now, and my previous SE (flashless as well) - for over a year. Not once in this time did I ever regret the absence of a puny LED flash. Simple reason: it's no good anyway. How many of you have actually taken a photo at night that was useful for ANYTHING?

        Oh come on guys, why every time you have to compare a phone with an iPhone? That means in some sense you like the iPhone. Anyway, I tried this phone for 2 hours, the best thing is the screen, the 4" Super AMOLED is very good. But it's not a major improvement over normal AMOLED. And the bad parts are a lot, the build quality is plasticky, it feels like a 50$ Chinese phone. The speaker is so feeble and the lack of camera flash. And one more thing the software support, Samsung is the world's best brand for their pathetic software support, I am confident that this device won't have the Froyo update. Samsung lied with i8910, they will do the same with this one.
        So if anybody have 500$ to burn, then buy this, you will have a beautiful screen, but beside that not so much boss.
        And Samsung fanboys, I will love to watch what you guys will do when Froyo gets out and you guys have to die for it.
        Regards,
        Saurav.

          very light weight unit, great quality screen, OS not slow or unresponsive, No drop in GPS reception. Does not feel like great build quality due to the light weight design, but dont let that fool you, great unit.

                wow.. the iFone4 costs around US$1950 in Hong Kong, HK$ 15,000. where as the samsung G S US$714, HK$ 5500. Big difference for the same specs of a good phone. I believe and hope the public are not "brand-washed" into thinking that the more expensive it is, the better. but reality is.. the public are blinded..

                      iFone4 paid the money blinded reviewers in "SLASH BEAR" to

                      make such a long bias review between their phone and

                      Samsung Galaxy S i9000? totally suspicous and misleading reviews...

                              IPS retina Display or Super Amoled

                              A4 processor or Hummingbird

                              Both OS are good IOS4 and Android 2.1

                              But the important thing is these software should run smooth on the device

                              Have seen videos of both device

                              But it was the review from this website about galaxy s which has created confusion.

                                        hey m8, those 2 phones are totally different worlds, no way you could compare them, the best you can do is pick features that are highly important to you e.g. Battery life/Screen/apps/ and compare those sections
                                        I personally think that IPhones are for ppl who cant deal with techstuff, its the easy way out for stupdpeople ^^ (or old ppl)
