SGS because of the better hardware. You can always root if you dont like the interface

the comment saying about the batterylife is based on my dad's usage which he does not know anything at all.. lol.. he is a total zero and only use phone for office, surf, email n normal phone stuffs..

i consider u a mid to high end user, so rooting/custom is always an option for you and out of the box dosent mean much.. the SGS seems like always preferred to most new android users due to its top notch hardware.

Usually people take HTC android due to HTC Sense UI. If u prefer HTC sense and love its widgets, go for Desire. If u prefer to have better hardware between those two, the Galaxy S wins hands down. But still, the hardware on the desire is good also and not dissapointing, its not crap at all but since the question of which one is better, the Galaxy S wins

the new hboot has not been rooted... seems like a long wait since the new hboot affects asian desire OTA and the devs mostly is based on europe.. it would be such a wait i guess..

slcd wont be much of diff if not mistaken, the real question now, if you want to buy it through maxis, you wont be able to root, so can you live with that?

Actually I dont see what's wrong with SLCD, it doesn't differ much from AMOLED in term of quality. ( I actually prefer the color of SLCD lol, more natural laugh.gif )
And HTC claimed that SLCD spend lesser battery power.... so why hate it? hmm.gif

indeed, i was thinking that the desire has a battery life advantage or perhaps in another word it is improved now thanks to the SLCD. It is proven by tests that SLCD does uses lower power on daily usage such as web browsing which has more white compared to blacks.
