sometime is not about manufacture that nvr include front camera coz i read some article that android not really can fully support front camera..
and i believe if include front camera in htc desire, the design need to modified because of no space to put front camera?

i just dun like the samsung mobile because of bad feedback from my friends and also from my eyes..is quite normal for consumer..

i did went through the video, thus i said the UI/design is like the iphone UI...a bit plasticky for its price and the back is finger-print magnet...

yes, it smooth, so is hTC desire / legend (i tried both in KLCC (desire) and PC fair (legend))...in video reviews, both galaxy S and Desire is smooth and i believe both will perform well...

i even watched the videos from gsmarena blog on the various UI aspects of galaxy S, like contacts UI, but unfortunately i still cant bring myself liking the UI more...

believe me (thanks to desire's exclusive deal with maxis, and reading more into the PenTile Matrix OLED), i'm considering this phone even if i'm into the design / UI, as long as the price is not that high...

i'm loving the super AMOLED, and the spec:
- the screen claimed to use less power
- better visibility on outdoors
- 45nm processor
- better GPU
- 1500mAH battery
- internal memory

thus i'm willing to sacrifice the looks...

what happen to the good old days when samsung was designing some of the best handset designs? i remember i bought my 1st and only samsung mobile phone solely because of it's look....

You cant really design much with the full touchscreen handphones, and I guess underthe galaxy marketing branch, they thought to themselves - If the iPhone is working well, why not create something that is ALMOST similar , but greater build

this way, you'll have something thats WAY better than the iphone, monster of a specifications, and last but not least ,an Android .

I'll try it out if the moolah arrives.

super amoled kick htc desire's arse

super amoled kick the current gen display, but i would like to see what new iphone has to offer as now almost everyone is saying it will have a 960x620 screen...

desire have the same problems as nexus one (pink hue as well), both using the clearpad 2000, which is quite outdated by now...but for now it wont impact as much as there aint many applications that make full use of the unlimited multutouch...

unlimited is not necessary since u only have 10 fingers
but i can use 7 multitouch in tap tap revenge for iphone..also with bubblewrap app

Great phone! but camera side a bit disappointed

yeah, i'm not too worried bout the multitouch, and i'm not really into playing those FPS that require better multitouch to work better...

but my main problem is the pink hue on desire / nexus one, well at least to me...sure you may not notice it in everyday usage but since i will be facing the screen most of the time, i prefer to get better one, not to mention when you are surfing the net...and for now samsung galaxy S is top...

since hTC just launch desire with incredible and EVO 4G in the US, i doubt hTC will launching any high-end device for at least 6 months...is Galaxy S my only choice? i dont know

GBP400????
that's 400*4.8 = 1920?
is cheaper than SG, which is said to be selling at SGD1098...

but after tax,bla bla bla then it will be more than that..
but is worth for me to buy since im now at australia and there is no import tax..is around $100 more than htc desire price from UK(GBP600) including postage...is cheaper than htc desire that sold in australia

U always mentioning about pink hue and so on..
Does it really happened because when i'm facing my phone's screen for a long time, let say 1 hour.. Nothing happened like u said pink hue?
I hope I can experience this once soon..

you can check out this thread: Pinkish Hue Problem

you may not notice it in everyday use, but try it on the htc website, gmail apps and also set to the lowest brightness...i notice the pinkish hue on the desire i tested at KLCC when i go to htc website and set to the lowest brightness...some device are not that noticeable, some yes, so if you are in the latter category, congrats...

FYI, i do set to the lowest brightness on my HD when in brightly lit places..

so since it's not noticeable everytime, it not really a problem, right? to me it's still bearable for now, but will i get annoyed by it in the long run?
so if galaxy S is competitively priced and said to be available 1st week of July, with desire only available end of June for other retailers, i have plenty of time to think it over...

heard 1 of the forumer here manage to get it outright from maxis with RM2199..
anyway i tot the pink think only happen in htc desire?nvr hear anything from N1 user

how did he/she did it?

check this video, especially in the gmail apps, when put next to the droid...



it may / may not be as serious...

No wonder..
Only happened to AMOLED screen...
Yeah, right! I heard no complains form other users especially Nexus One about this problem..
Anyway, u'll get used to it one day..
But, if not.. Maybe replace the screen?? I don't know proper solution though..

yes, i think this problem more or less does happen to all AMOLED screens...

1st post on the xda thread did mention that samsung galaxy (not sure if it's galaxy S as it didnt say) and legend does have the pinkish hue but it's not as obvious as in the Desire...

Pity to Desire's users.. Anyway.. I hope that it'll be a normal thing for u soon because how to fix it anyway?
I really2 have no idea..

there

his name is ckjoe...

maybe get phones that still using TFT LCDs?
if it's like legend as shown in the picture, it's not that bad, but desire seems to be a bit over the top for me...since hTC knew about the problem, hTC could make it better in the next update...

@hihihehe,
if you bought from some place wont you be worry bout warranty? honestly with that super AMOLED is only available from samsung, i worried that it will cost a bomb to fix it should it have any problem (touchwood)...waiting for some users' review as well...

anyone know if the price SGD1098 is for the 8GB or 16GB model?

i think most possible was 16GB, me also bring back from s'pore .... , hmm.... yes u're right, worry bout warranty !! , heard that maybe galaxy s come with Maxis at malaysia but not comfirm ......

err..not really care about warranty..if really happen,just send back to the country i bought and i use other phone 1st...just suffer for 1 month(warranty might take longer than that)..
