I definitely wont recommend. Annoying device, you may call it as "unsmart" phone. One can praise the Amoled display but its nothing but an over-saturated and over-contrasted screen. Unnatural.
But it wont be a big problem, your eyes can get used to the Lady Gaga video style eye punch looks.
The problems are technical. Look up the wifi issue thread, sooner or later it will happen. I have it and despite factory reset (advice from the forum) and by that losing all my data my wifi still does not work. Looking up IP address then die off.
In the morning I "wake up" the little f@cking baby and its frozen, half dead while no one touched her all night long. The bitch.
It keeps losing GPRS connection by the hour and you have to dig deep into the otherwise not really intuitive menu system to find the part where you can do settings - strictly on trial-and-error basis. Good that you can make phone calls at least.
Having said that, making a phone call is a pain in the ass. Its a bloody 3 step procedure, and when you expect the call to be executed, you will only get to another cluttered screen where you have to poke another button to finally let the call out. At least the buttons are harsh red and neon green, apparently they wanted to make sure you cant mess them up even if you are an idiot.
I can't count how many times I had to remove battery as nothing else worked. I have Froyo installed (maybe another mistake) and the thing worked fine for a few days, then without warning started to act weird. Its a new phone, not even 2 weeks old.
You want good for yourself? Don't measure LCD size and listen to raving about Amoled. Go and get an iPhone, now I know why I should have done that.
Sorry for the rant folks, this Galaxy S gets on my nerves. I used iPhone 3gs, its slow, it has no fancies like the 4 or this SGS - but reliable. And I am pretty sure the iPhone4 is much more reliable than this fancy plastic piece of cr@p.
