16GB internal storage is meaningless once developers update their apps to Froyo apps2sd compatibility.
The Galaxy S has two things over the N1: bigger super AMOLED screen and better GPU. But, on the other hand, the better GPU does nothing if you aren't running demanding 3D games. Plus, everyone who's handled it noted that the build quality seems rather shitty, plastic chassis/back and all. Then there's the issue on whether Samsung will actually bring 2.2 (yes, it's promised, but Samsung's promises are worth much less than the bandwidth they take up) to the phone, or Gingerbread afterward.
It's too soon. I would wait a few months for even more powerful phones that have it all--1 GB memory, dual-core 1.5 GHz, HDMI out, bluetooth keyboard/mouse compatibility, etc. Upgrade for nothing less, IMO.
I disagree.
GPU is good for a lot of things, including web browsing, (flash is coming, remember?) Scrolling screens/apps/maps, and it takes some load off the cpu, making it faster.
The internal storage is welcome, more than welcome. Even though I love expandable memory, you have to admit there's some sd card lag. Imagine lagless photo gallery(with lots of pictures!), faster loading meda, faster write speeds etc etc. Plus sheer capacity, 16GB internal + 32GB external = 48GB of total storage. You can literally have it all on your phone.
Uodates - agreed. They are slow or not at all, however, since this is the first ever samsung android flagship with this much exposure, it may be better. Wait and see I guess.
Build quality - perception can be very misleading. I have to say, samsung phones/devices I've encountered can sure take a beating. My moments been dropped many times and no so much as a scratch. My fiances instinct? Well that thing has been dropped in the toilet, (eww) dropped on concrete/hardwood, thrown across the room, and more. And its still ticking. Albiet it's a crap phone with a crap os, but it still works.
And about the "iphone look", well technically it would be an LG Prada look, as they iare the first to use this style.
Tapatalk. Samsung Moment. Yep.
