Hi, guys. need some opinion.

I'm totally new to Android, therefore i would like to try something at the entry level. I'm torn between 2 phones.
Which are:
Samsung Galaxy 5
HTC Wildfire

1. I dont care about the camera, 2mp or 5mp with flash doesn't matter with me.
2. Some hearsay says that Wildfire has a pixelated screen. due to the screen size and resolution.
3. I read a review saying that Wildfire doesnt permit using of Swype.
4. Samsung G5 is cheaper than Wildfire by 400 MYR.

I know it has been very one-sided comment till now. But there are things that i'm worried about the Samsung G5 as well.

Problems hindering from it:
Can it support most of the needed Apps?
It has a smaller screen at 2.8".
Not sure whether it can be upgraded to FROYO or not.

Apps i think that are necessary to me are APPS like GPS. or maybe install some games with PSXAndroid.

So what do you guys think? G5 or Wildfire?

Your comments are very much appreciated. Thank You!

Thanks to StupidGuyPlayComp & lost123 comment.

I have personally went to the shop to test the phone.
Conclusion:
1. I have difficulty texting on the G5.
2. I'm not sure bout ppl who criticizes on the resoultion of the Wildfire. I looks perfectly fine to me. (Or maybe i do not pay attention to the details)

Looks like i'm set to be a Wildfire user. Thanks.
