QUOTE(faridaizuddin @ Sep 29 2010, 10:00 AM) No wonder it is cheaper than HTC Tattoo and Wildfire.. 2MP camera only, internal 170MB.. However, this phone can be categorized in the lower end phone of Android family proudly and newbie will be looking for this kind of phone as their tryout and for sure it'll make sense to them..  Agreed...it's a big yes for an entry level android phone for a big cut down price between the x10 mini(yaaa...they have a decent cam)..my only hope is that it can upgrade to 2.2...heard from the salesperson that our neighbour(spore) have it...

QUOTE(teamloks @ Sep 29 2010, 12:53 PM) but i really dont like Galaxy 5 Design... btw is it Galaxy 5 have good speaker? When you use it as audio source for external amplifiers (such as a car or home stereo) the Samsung I5500 Galaxy S is a loud device with good frequency response and decent noise level and dynamic range. Its distortion levels are slightly high and the stereo crosstalk isn't the best we have seen but that's hardly much to worry about. When headphones come into play the frequency response gets a bit worse but its deviations still remain undetectable in all but lab conditions. The total harmonic distortion improves in such conditions but the intermodulation distortion and stereo crosstalk suffer. Overall, as audio output is concerned, the Galaxy 5 is a solid performer (though short of spectacular).Credit to gsmarena.com. Sounds are wisely played..it have a 5.1 when u are using the headphone...

QUOTE(tutiger @ Sep 29 2010, 01:17 PM) So sad, my new toy is in Samsung Service Centre..... (really glad that I bought an ori set and haven't rooted my phone yet  ) description of the problem I face - suddenly the phone hangs frequently. Have to remove the battery to restart but will hang as soon as I put the back cover on. - when charging overnight, the battery won't charge but will instead overheat. - the techie told me that he will try to re-install android and see if it is a software problem, if not I will have to leave it there for 4 working days. I am not complaining, just sharing with all what happen to my new toy phone and I am pretty sure that it is indeed a great for value phone Sorry to hear bro...may the best upon bringing yr phone back...thanks for sharing these...at least we can be sure that our phone are well taken care for the warranty by Samsung...
