Hi
I recently heard about Samsung Galaxy Spica, and I really like the fact that it is pretty cheap and still offers the super awesome Android OS.
I am seriously considering buying this phone soon, but I have some questions to those of you who use Spica:
1- How good is the touch screen sensitivity? I have a Samsung Star, and it's touch screen is not very responsive. I just want to know whether Spica is good or not compared to iPhone or HTC products when comes to touch screen responsiveness and sensitivity.
2- Is there any lagging in the phone? On some videos on YouTube, I could notice that Spica scrolling lags many times, especially when scrolling in the app menu. This issue is of high importance to me: if Spica lags when scrolling in menu or in contacts or webpages, then I dont think I am gonna buy it. How is lagging in this phone compared to iPhone or HTC products [if you tried any]?
3- Is the accelerometer good? I once tried an android game called Labyrinth on HTC G1 and iPhone, and I noticed it worked better on the android system. I just wanna know if Spica's accelerometer is good enough to run such games smoothly and without errors.
4- How good is the camera on the 2.1 OS? I read that it doesn't have any options in the 1.5 android, is the same true for the new one? Also, how good is the auto focus? I like shooting close-up pictures and I really care for this issue. One more thing: is there an android app that can do auto-focus like iPhone does?[touching the part you want to focus on]
5- Is the lack of proximity sensor a very major issue?
6- Did any one of you try using Android Scripting Environment on Spica? How good is it?
7- Is it possible to use multitouch in the new 2.1 update?
8- is there any reason that made you regret buying the Spica? [plz mention it even if it is very slight] are there any limitations on software from the app market for example? is it slower than it should? is its camera not good as it should be? is its screen too easily scratched? etc,,,
I know I just asked so many questions, but I don't want to end up being an unhappy Android user because of the phone itself.
Thanks a lot!
