help! stuck btwn HTC desire hd and SAMSUNG galaxy s!! which to choose?
new SGS all comes with android 2.1 or 2,2??
i've heard some lag issues with the SGS, but some says it can be fixed, any reviews?
desire HD's sound, izzit very very bad compared to the SGS?
gaming wise, which phone performs better?
thanks!
For new SGS, it usually comes with 2.2, but it depends on whether you bought old stock or new stock.
The lag issues are something to do with a poor file system used by Samsung, lagfixes are available and can be solved easily with a bit of knowledge.
About the sound, are you referring to the speaker or via the earphones? As for speaker, the DHD is not as loud as the SGS, but both of them aren't 5800XM loud anyways, so its not much of a big difference. As for earphones I can't judge, as I do not own a SGS to compare.
Gaming wise, both will do fine. The Desire HD's new Adreno 205 matches the SGS' PowerVR SGX 540 GPU evenly, if not better. Check the benchmarks to get an idea of what I mean.
The significant factor between both are their screens and build. Either you go for the heavy but solid aluminium unibody build and slightly bigger 4.3 inch screen on the DHD or go for the all plastic but light SGS and its beautiful 4.0 inch SuperAMOLED screen.
