[deleted post]No time soon, i phoned up O2 to get my PAC code and was put through to retentions, guy asked me why i was moving and i told him for the Galaxy S. He asked what was wrong with the Galaxy (Portal) they stock and i told him the S was a totally different ball game entirely with among others 4"Super AMOLED display.
He then asked me had i looked at Dell Streak which they must be stocking instead of Galaxy S as alternative to iphone! I told him not a chance, think some buyer for O2 has boobed big time not predicting S's popularity!

        well yea I get how black is really classy and sleek, but if you cover the logo and go to the app screen, anyone would think that its an iphone lol. that's about the only thing I hate about it, everything else is just awesome.

            zec, 14 Jun 2010hay can you disable the touchwiz?You'll have to wait for the phone to be rooted, then changing to a stock android like 2.2 will be possible.

                yes I read on a few sites that it will be upgradable to froyo but it is not confirmed when it will be released but I doubt will be that soon cos its already running on 2.1. I ran through thee settings but don't see any touch wiz. what function is that? pardon me its only my 3rd day using the phone lol.

                    Is it possible to first buy one using Android Eclair and then upgrade the same phone to Android Froyo when it becomes available?

                        its fine with me, the phone have been great on performance so far, the most disappointing area is only that the app screen looks like an iphone and so does the phone when its locked and looks all black. -.-

                            could anyone count the "this expensive phone doesn't have a flash ?" posts in here ?

                            i'm sure we could get the counter to 1000 till release in europe and they wouldn't be longer that boring.

                              only its not android and not everyone lives on a flash camera lol. I don't get it seriously if you want a cam on your phone so bad then get a digicam? this is a powerful smartphone for god's sake. try considering the many other factors of the phone instead of just the camera.

                                      PravSg, 12 Jun 2010Hi Ares, How is the Battery life ?hi there, the battery life is average. but definitely waaaay better then the iphone 3gs or the hd2 or even the nexus one. heavy usage, (brightest settings and lots of wifi usage, and about 3 hours talking) still lasts at least through late night, (from 8 oclock in the morning til 12 oclock midnight). not bad for the functions of this phone.

                                        I think Samsung Wave has an edge on this phone as it has flash LED.
