Good With a 1GHz processor the Galaxy S offers speedy browsing through its menus and the beautiful 4-inch screen is a real gadget crowd-pleaser. Because it's AMOLED it's better, brighter and slimmer than many of its peers.To make good use of this screen, the Samsung Galaxy S has excellent video playback. Where most Androids can play H.264, H.263 and WMV files, the Samsung Galaxy S can play just about...
Bad The plasticy build lets the Galaxy S down slightly. It means that the Galaxy S is lighter than any of its main rivals, but it makes the phone feel less of a premium contender in the Android market. This phone isn’t cheap, in price or in the quality of its features so it'd be nice if the build reflected that.
