Overall Review
Samsung Galaxy S is a mid-range mobile phone by Samsung that has Android v.2.3 Gingerbread as its operating system. It is launched as Samsung flagship smartphone which was originally shipped with Android v.2.1 Eclair, then upgraded to Android v.2.2 Froyo and now given a new lease of life, rocking Android v.2.3 Gingerbread that brings in access to lots more new applications and features, thus providing a relief to the users of Samsung Galaxy S. Samsung Galaxy S is a cracking handset in terms of screen, processing speed, packed in features and the decent looks. The user can reach speeds up to 40 words per minute with Swype application. Rather than requiring the user to hit each letter accurately, Swype has a built-in intelligence that follows the path your finger traces on the keyboard, just trace the word you want to write, and Swype will do the rest and with the Write & Go application, one can swype a message and send it directly from the notepad by SNS, SMS, Email, Calendar, or Memo. With dimensions of 122.4mm x 64.2 x 9.9 mm it is a good 5 mm taller than many rivals and about the same amount wider carrying a weight of 119 grams and at the thickness of 9.9 mm, it will have minimal impact on the line of your trousers or jacket. This sleekness also comes across in the phone's design. Aside from its Samsung logo, the front of the phone is very clean and simple, and the pattern of little dots on the back of the phone does retain this sleekness. The front is surrounded with a metallic bezel that helps in providing more toughness to the device. The front has a single piece of glass made up of Corning Gorilla Glass that provides sturdiness to the display and makes it scratch and finger prints resistant. However, the back is finished in glossy plastic that scratches easily and flexes slightly, just taking the edge off any feeling of quality. Also adding to this general impression is the lightness of the device.

Samsung Galaxy S is a sweet and lovable phone and is the first sibling in the Samsung Galaxy S series which after getting a huge cut in price is still liked by the people above its elder siblings.

The internal storage space of this droid is also very good and you can also extend the external memory up to 32GB using a microSD card in the provided memory card slot. There are many other smartphones available in the market that are ready to give a neck in neck competition to Samsung Galaxy S and they are HTC One V, Samsung Galaxy S Plus, HTC Desire S, Sony Xperia Ray, Samsung Galaxy W, HTC Desire HD, Apple iPhone 4S, Apple iPhone 4, Apple iPhone 5, Nokia Lumia 710, HTC Radar, Nokia Lumia 800, Samsung Omnia W, Samsung Galaxy S Advance, Samsung Galaxy S Duos, HTC Wildfire S, HTC Sensation XE, HTC Sensation 4G, Samsung Galaxy S II, Samsung Galaxy Ace, Motorola DEFY, HTC Desire S, HTC Desire X, Nokia Lumia 920, Nokia Lumia 820, Nokia 808 PureView, and many more.
