The Feature Packed Samsung Galaxy
Apple’s iPhone family have dominated the smartphone charts for the last couple of years, with a few serious challenges, but nothing that could quite unseat the market leader. With the new iPhone launched recently, it looks like the challenge has become even more difficult. The Samsung Galaxy S didn’t receive quite the same level of publicity on its recent launch, but could the Korean company’s best ever smart phone give Apple a run for their money?
With it’s impressive 4 inch screen housed in a light plastic body with chrome trim, the Samsung smartphone certainly has the look of a high end smartphone. The Galaxy S appears to have been influenced more than a little by the design of the iPhone family, but this realization only reinforces the view that it is a very good looking phone.
It’s not just the size of the screen that makes the Galaxy S a worthy challenger to the iPhone. Thanks to the Super AMOLED high resolution display, whatever you are viewing on it looks amazing, with rich colors and clean, crisp contrast. The touchscreen function is equally impressive, and makes it simple and easy to navigate around the Galaxy S.
The Galaxy S has a 5 megapixel camera, and while this is about average for a high end smartphone, and the same as the iPhone 4, the Samsung software lets you adjust and tweak a whole range of settings, giving you much more control over your photos. There’s also full 720p hi definition video capture, which makes up for the fact the Galaxy S has no flash, relying on its ‘night mode’ instead.
Samsung wanted the Galaxy S to blow the competition away when it came to playing media, and most users will probably agree that they’ve achieved their aim. Whether your playing music or video from the smartphone’s incredible 48GB storage capacity, with features like virtual surround sound and that Super AMOLED screen, everything just looks and sounds great.
The latest Android operating system works well with Samsung’s own Touchwiz user interface, and the Galaxy S matches all the other smartphones on the connectivity front with data over 3G, WiFi capability, as well as Bluetooth and GPS. A powerful battery and nippy 1GHz processor make sure that, whatever the demands placed on it, the Galaxy S gives a smooth performance.
The Samsung Galaxy S integrates all your communication needs, across all the usual platforms, including e-mail, messages, and social networking – so you’re never out of reach. Apps and widgets from Android and Samsung mean you can customize Samsung’s top smartphone to be what you want it to be.
Is the Samsung Galaxy S an iPhone slayer? It’s hard to say. There are a lot of things it does very well, but we’ll have to see whether it does everything well enough to take on the smartphone king. One thing’s for sure, it’s certainly a genuine alternative to the Apple smartphone.
