Before we start ultibread we need to finish ultimatw v8.0 but i reccomend flashing this. Thank u samsung for not forgetting us! i am one happy user.

the new samsung galaxy s with super clear lcd & 478mb ram and 4gb storage rm1699... super amoled & 512 mb ram and 16gb  rm2099.. 

update it via samsung apps?

if i uninstall the task manager edi, where can i get the previous version that withou that bug ah?

the processor different? better or slower?

On the plus side, you get a brighter screen of somewhat better sharpness. What you are sacrificing however is the contrast, which is out of this world on the original Galaxy S and only average on the I9003. SuperAMOLED has the upper hand in sunlight legibility too (though the difference here is less prominent).

SuperAMOLED screens are known to have a greenish tint but they make up for it with punchy and saturated colors. And the Super Clear LCD on the I9003 has a touch of blue to its screen so its accuracy isn’t any better either. We got admit some of us preferred its less saturated output, so it might be a personal thing.

We wouldn’t say brightness itself matters all that much, unless you use your phone screen as a flashlight. It’s more a part of the sunlight legibility thing and as we said the Super AMOLED has a slight edge despite it’s a bit less bright.

All in all, the improved sharpness is too little to show for all those sacrifices so we can’t rate a Super Clear LCD screen as high as AMOLED. And that’s not even counting the lesser power-efficiency, which is why the Samsung I9003 has a larger battery in the first place.

The other element of interest under the I9003 Galaxy SL back panel is the 1650 mAh Li-Ion battery. Its large capacity however doesn’t give longer service than the 1500 mAh battery that powers the I9000, due to the more power-hungry display. You can still count on two to three days of heavy usage though.

An interesting detail – the new battery fits the old Galaxy S perfectly and doesn’t need a new back cover or anything.

Finally, we come to the performance. The Samsung I9003 Galaxy SL packs a new TI OMAP 3430 chipset, rather than the home-brewed Hummingbird on the I9000. Yet both of those have a 1 GHz Cortex A8 CPU on the inside so UI navigation is equally smooth. Froyo speeds up app performance too, though you probably won’t feel the update as a 2-5 times better as it says on the Froyo box.

However you should keep in mind that the Samsung I9003 Galaxy SL comes with the less powerful PowerVR SGX530 GPU, instead of the PowerVR SGX540. That should result in somewhat less stellar performance in apps that support hardware 3D acceleration.

The review was so insistent on Super Clear LCD consumes more energy than SuperAMOLED. But did the reviewer takes into consideration that the TI OMAP processor was the culprit of the battery drain here?

I read of an article that the nVidia Tegra's processor was a battery sucker too. I guess not all processors are made as equally efficient.
