The phone is the first Samsung carrying the Android operating system (Android OS v1.5 without customizations) and has a nice3.2″ capacitive AMOLED touchscreen (but no multi-touch gestures), Wifi, 3.5mm headphone jack,  8GB of onboard storage, Accelerometer and lot’s of other fancy characteristics. All this on only 116g of weight.

Some photos:

Lot’s of stuff in the box, including a NDrive gps licence for Portugal.

It’s Android, baby. Very easy to use and with lot’s of apps available on the Android Marketplace. Speed is also a plus because it’s 3G enabled with HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and supports Wifi (b/g). Browsing the web is a sweet experience.

The screen is gorgeous.

Disliked

I can’t buy Android Apps in Portugal, so that leaves a part of the Android Market incomplete. Not nice.

Camera doesn’t have any options, just press the button and take a photo. Since it’s a 5MP camera, they could have improved it more.

2-3 seconds and the screen is locked. Annoying.

Could have been further customized by Samsung.

Overall

A great device, it’s no iPhone killer but worth the price considering the specs and the software.

I haven’t tried the GPS maps  and I can’t comment on the battery life  but I’ll probably do a follow up post on worthwhile apps to download so send me some suggestions if you know something worth trying.
