Samsung has always been a company known for its innovations. This is because they have always been dedicated in staying ahead of the pack. Now, they are focused in developing and expanding the technology they use on their smartphones.
Last March 2010, J.K. Shin, president of Samsung Electronics uncovered during the international Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA) conference their latest mobile phone - the Android powered Galaxy S. This latest addition to Samsung's mobile phones is expected to bring smartphones to the next level.
Stylish Design
The Samsung Galaxy S is enclosed in a casing that comes in the classic black and gray. It has rounded contours on the sides, giving it a classy and sophisticated look. It has dimensions of 122.4 by 64.2 by 9.9 millimeters. With this dimensions, the Galaxy S is probably one of the slimmest mobile phones designed by Samsung. It's also very light since it only weighs 118 grams. This makes the mobile phone easier to grip.
Outstanding Features
The Galaxy S was appreciated during the CTIA conference for its 4.0 inch Super AMOLED touch screen. In the Super AMOLED screen, Samsung placed touch sensors directly on the display. Most touch screens create separate layers for the touch sensors making the phone thicker. With the Super AMOLED screen, colors and images seem to burst out of the screen making them appear lively and smooth. The Super AMOLED touch screen allows the Galaxy S to provide users with exceptional graphics, images and videos.
It's also reported that Samsung has teamed up with Paramount Pictures to bring full-length movies to Galaxy S users. They also partnered with Skiff, an e-book reader provider to allow users to upload e-books and other magazines into the phone. Also, Galaxy S is said to support HD video playbacks and other video formats.
The Galaxy S also runs on Android operating system. This allows the user to access certain applications such as Google Search, Gmail and Google Maps. It also comes with 1GHz processor making running of applications for the Galaxy S faster.
The Galaxy S also comes with WiFi and 3G HSDPA that can go as quick as 7.2Mbps. This allows users to stay connected to the internet through the WLAN connections and other hotspots.
Samsung also boasts of the "Smart Life" application. With this feature, Galaxy S users can personalize the information they get online such as news and weather reports and other location based information.
Like other smartphones in the market, Samsung also developed an application for social networking sites - the Social Hub. They incorporated this feature for people who want to be constantly updated with the latest on Facebook, Twitter, Bebo and other social networking sites.
Aside from the features included in Galaxy S for internet connectivity, it can also be used to take still images and videos with its 5-megapixel camera. What's also amazing with its camera is that it has autofocus as well as face and smile detection features. It's perfect for those who love to take pictures and videos.
