hahaha... coz u asked me get it wont regret mar... u not getting it also??

honestly, i tink the the galaxy S has a better chance to survive in the future, because mainly of its GPU and its proper multitouch(not the 2 points multitouch).. when and if better quality games come out, u will be able to play it without a problem.. coz the newer and upcoming HTC fones will mostly come with the newer versions of Qualcomm processors like the scorpion, and the scorpion will haf a much better GPU than the current sad GPU of the snapdragon..

so it only depends on whether u want to play 3D games on your fone, if you dont, then u can juz go for the desire. but if u do wanna play 3D games, then its a no brainer to get the Galaxy S.

If you wanna play with custom roms, most probably Desire is the better phone lol.

Waiting for the Galaxy Tab actually

ha...u hav the same problem like me...
anyway, i bought myseld desire instead of samsung galaxy s
...
i still prefer the layout n design of the desire, coz samsung is too big...

mind u,samsung phone no second value in the market...i used samsung hp prior changing to desire..

cheers

no second value??lol
is because ur samsung not high end so its not popular...
and if u wan more second value then get iphone...

i already have a galaxy S at home which belongs to my dad. If i want to play games anytime i can play it.. haha.. Thats y im not getting SGS. But i prefer HTC i guess. HTC Desire was a good daily driver to me, the best i guess. Having super duper graphics like too much on a phone like the galaxy S is not maxed out since there arent so many games which is only dedicated for a super duper power graphic processing phone. Even the desire can play what Galaxy S games can if its snapdragon/adreno optimized or capable.


Indeed. at first i thought that the SGS would have a low 2nd value like all other samsung products, but i guess for SGS it would be different unless the buyer and the seller is a no brainer =="

if u buy thru maxis, u still can root the phone, only that u void the warranty nia...
let say u sign up the package for 1 year under maxis, u can root the phone, but if anything happen to your phone (touch wood), then u hav to bear the cost.

Anyway, y u guys need to root? coz the 2.2 version is out d...u can update it when u buy ur phone.
i upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 a few days after i bought my htc =p

just sharing only!

P/S: i personally like the samsung galaxy s widget coz of the 3d a like effect..when i compare samsung galaxy s, htc desire n iphone...
i still think desire n samsung won over iphone...
i hav no regret buying desire though...^^

hope u can buy ur choice of phone

i can assure you the antenna issue is not a issue anymore,at least for me..
i tested 2 iphone with full signal bar and try to grip as hard as i can but still nvr drop any...

hihihehe--> let's just stop analysing iphohe here...
i dun wan add in trouble to xproc, later from 2 options, bcum 3 options creating more headache to him/her...

xproc--> Good luck!

nah,not really analyse iphone...

anyway, TS can get SGS if prefer the spec or desire for UI...
stop comparing the battery life...both also quite the same and all depends on ur usage
but u can't run away with super amoled screen compare with slcd

i brought HTC Desire

Congrats and have fun tinkering with it

we still dunno why he has made his decision..

waiting charging so that i can update to 2.2

play with it first lah .... so u can tell what is good and what going wrong when u update new firmware

u can ask at recommendation phone topics..dun need to create new topics..

when compare at maxis centre side by side... i like desire more than SGS, SGS is just too big and plastic...

waiting my casemate come tmr....

still learning to use the phone... i really like desire interface with sense UI

just upgraded to 2.2 Froyo... so far so good...



maybe SGS can survive longer time... but at that time... probably more phone which more geng than SGS

no matter SGs or desire... i think the main isssue is the battery... right?

why battery?
if i own desire,i believe i can make it survive in 2 days(same as my SGS)
the main issue is which 1 suits u well..

obviously you have not been reading through this thread.. but i guess the case is now settled then, TS should continue talking at corresponding thread and close this one.

yes, weak battery life is always de reason my customers complain to me abt desire.
got screwed many times over this issue,
"how to enjoy smartphone when u must always lower down brightness, disable this n that, etc?"
"why must i always carry spare batteries/chargers arnd? fone itslf ady takes up so much space in my pocket!"

so in de end, to help preserve reputation of my shops, and even de sales guys agreed with me to discontinue selling desire.

but i hv no experience with desire firmware 2.2 or samsung androids. hopefully can be better.
