Good choice
By W. Oliveira
This is my first smartphone, and I admit I was having mixed feelings after my bad experience with my "old" Nokia N82. However I was positively surprised by some aspects of the device, specially the responsiveness and the usability. It is really easy to use, I gave it to my mom (she's 60 and always has problems to use tech stuff) and she just started to use it! Now after 2 weeks I think I have some contribution...What I liked:The touchscreen works very well, with some inaccuracy, only perceived in rare occasions when I need to click a link without zooming in the screenThe speed: usually it is very fast to switch from an app to another.Live Wallpaper: very impressive (although I suspect it eats the battery)."Modem" feature: in 30 seconds my laptop was connected to the Internet using the phone's 3G network, and without any cable!Camera: comes with all those candies the modern cameras have. I liked the Panorama.Display: amazing colors and cristal clear, can be used even at direct sunlight.Unlock Pattern: Sounds like a silly thing, but I liked it!Power profile: it shows how much of the battery is being consumed and by application, and then you may have a chance to improve battery life. In my case the display is by far the most battery eater, so there's not too much I can do, except do not use it.What workedWeb browser. It was able to render every page I've visited, it is fast and easy to use.Multi screen. It is nice to have more than one screen. I know it should be very useful, I just don't know for what.Swype: surprisingly easy to use, just needs some improvement on word prediction.Maps and traffic information.What could be improvedSoftware shop definitely needs to be improved, for example: I want the possibility to sort out search results, I want more filter options, and, of course, more software available. Also, some kind of security review/karma would be useful. Some form of accreditation of the suppliers also could help. I'm not saying I want the Apple dictatorial system, but I think some basic security indication/checking/verification would be good.Wifi: It works OK most of the time, but sometimes it does not connect automatically and then I have to go to the list of networks and click on the "Connect" button.3G: it took me some time to understand how to configure the network. I still not 100% sure I could do it again if I lost the configuration...Applications: too many applications, poorly organized. I'd like to have a way to group them in a logical way or inside a folder, specially those rarely used (may be there is a way and I just need to learn how to use it).Language: The default language is Korean or Chinese (I'm ignorant and I don't know the difference between the ideograms). It should come in English!Language Support: definitely need to have Portuguese support.Speech recognition (Vlingo): That's a bad joke. I say SECTOR, it understands SEX STORE. Hmmm, is it reading my mind? :)Battery Life: It lasts for one day, in a good day. Much less if you are a heavy user.Access device's storage: That's tricky! I spent a whole day trying to find a way to use the device's media on Linux... And then I found the problem: the SD card need to be unmounted first! (settings/SD card/Unmount SD card). Once I did that it worked.GPS: The initial lock takes much longer than Nokia N82.3G usage: I don't know how much data is being transmitted/received, let's see the next phone bill. That "background transfer" "feature" is my concern. Also, it could have some sort of carrier/network type selection, it is always using the network even when the only network available is Edge. OK, maybe it already has this control and I just don't know where it is.Lateral buttons: I'm always mistakenly pressing the buttons.Glitches: It hanged a couple of times. One of the times I had to remove the battery to get it back. Sad.

Not really unlocked
By Jairo_Sanchez
Product offered said "Unlocked", nonetheless it was not and I needed to pay an extra of USD60 to really unlock the phone.Will Amazon or the reseller, take any action on this?

powerful yet elegant
By R. Dimacali
this phone is simply one of the best looking phones out there and also one of the powerful ones.this phone truly shine in the graphics department. i myself don't expect a lot from mobile games but saying "amazing" when playing games like need for speed shift, nova, backbreaker, etc. is an understatement.it takes 720p video and high res images up to 2560x1920. the camera has plenty of functions which you can find similar to a digital camera, like smile shutter, panoramic, burst shot, cartoon effects, action shot and more. self portrait shots are taken with the front facing camera.using this phone in a 3G network (for me, it's AT&T), is really satisfying. accessing full websites with the browser is like using a tablet computer. pinch-to-zoom and scrolling through websites is really smooth. downloading files works well too.the UI of the phone is great. some people don't like the TouchWiz UI, but at the same time, i don't really like the stock android skin. apps such as launcher pro plus and adw launcher can add customization for the UI. so you're not limited on how the menus look.widgets are another features that i do like and this phone runs them smoothly. live wallpapers is also supported.this device support a great amount of video and image files. i tested it by putting a 720p .H264 DivX video and played smoothly with no lags. i did some scrolling through the video and yet there is still no lag considering it's an hd movie that's playing.messaging is in thread form. supports mms for sending images, audio, video. the I9000-GT also supports video calling built in using the front camera. AT&T doesn't support that but i tried it with an app called fring and it works over wifi or 3G.calendar sync for google calendar is also supported. it also includes ThinkFree Office which lets you edit/create/view Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Adobe PDF files.the Super AMOLED screen is really great! i love to be able to view what's on my phone when i'm outside or under the sun, if you're worried about that then worry no more!it annoys me sometimes how the screen is ridiculously bright in the dark even at the lowest settings. but that's a great thing! haha!watching movies on this 4 inch screen is great although the battery won't last very long if used that way.call quality is pretty good. no dropped calls nor signal lost so far.overall, i'm completely satisfied with this phone! i'm a phone addict and when i got this amazing device, i just stopped looking for other phones.all the features that i need and want are all in the Galaxy S and apps from the Android marketplace makes this phone worth more.

Buy Tusk D-Flex Handguards with Turn Signals Black
Poor quality and completely different look
Very cool, but too complex for 1 year old
