It creates a perfect environment to record, edit and play HD video, to browse the Internet, and to read your favorite e-books. A variety of applications from Android Market allows users to even more extend the benefits and excitement of smart phone experience. Plus, users have access to Google mobile services, such as Google Search, Gmail, and Google Maps.

          Living a "Smart Life" requires intelligence, and the Galaxy S delivers just that by utilizing personal preferences to gather information online that each user needs and wants. With a user-defined daily briefing, lightning-fast processing speeds and location-based search options like Layar Reality Browser – the Galaxy S gives users the information they need wherever and whenever needed. The Galaxy S represents the next level of intelligence in smart phones.

          The Galaxy S integrates every aspect of life in a smart and sophisticated way. In addition to wireless integration with a variety of other devices, such as notebooks, TVs and cameras, the highly advanced Social Hub plugs users quickly and conveniently into their complete world of social networking and email.
          "The Android-powered Galaxy S will set a new standard for smart phones," said JK Shin, president and head of Mobile Communications Business. "The Galaxy S is the perfect device for people in all corners of the world who want that extra edge; to be more effective, productive, better connected, and in tune with their smart life – both personal and professional – all in a very easy and simple way."

                Imagine that, if this device was built with symbian OS in it, samsung would have made greatest profit with it!

                  Overall good design and spec. However, the 4 inch screen is not desirable for everybody as it makes the size too big. You want something you could comfortably carry in your trouser pocket with 3.5 inch they could achieve both.

                                    Galaxy seems to be packed with lot of features, but why the Radio option is sacrificed?! It will look like a Galaxy without our Solar system !!

                                        cool swype text entry. i think thats a 1st. txtin on this cud be v fast if the swype manages to guess the words correctly. if not, its a useless feature.

                                        also if this can record at 720p at 30fps, its fairly disappointing that se x10 cant.
