I keep looking at my Galaxy screen with the animated fish tank I downloaded from Android Market. It's very smooth & stunning to look at & the processor seems to cope well & not slow it down at all. It really shows off the screen.

This is my first android device. Honestly I picked up this phone because android 2.1 and future proof hardware specifications and 2.2 update. I already used symbian, iOS, S40, SE-platform, linux, windows, Java etc on phones but now it looks to me that android is something different and well build OS. I enjoy it every single time on it.
If you guys have plan to use android on future then you should save your contacts and calendar entries on Gmail. Android synchronize them very easily. It just saves lots of time.
I’ve facing one problem, although I’m not sure, sometimes the phone can’t find the net while it connected to wifi, have to retry or turn off and turn again the wifi.

Not had any issues with wifi. Seems to work seamlessly for me.
Yes I'll be sticking with android, and already have my contacts on gmail for easy synching, works a treat.

Just got a slide in sideways leather case for mine today. I tried some top ones all universal in Carphone today non fitted only one I found. Its fine for now. Have you seen GSM Arena today its showing future Samsung AMOLED screens that are indestructible
Took some more photos on auto today & concluding that it is definately NOT the best 5 meg camera out there but it's also not that bad. There is some noise even in daylight but in comparison the HD video is fantastic. I took these photos of some more street dancers today in the city & done a 3 minute HD video. The video fills my whole widescreen on my pc & is very clear. The street dancers were dancing to a funky jazz band. I hate jazz though but I was just passing by         The last shot is very boring I know but look at the sky. It's blotchy. But I am not overly fussed it's a decent everyday snapper for fun phone snaps |& HD video too. There is a sharpness setting which makes things,well,sharper but can over do it a little but I think this camera is at it's worst in auto mode unfortunately. But that's the fun of digital you can play about with things alot. I think Samsung has concentrated more on the other features of this phone as it's not a imaging based phone

@ JohnM - well, when i first saw the Galaxy i wanted to see just how great this Super-AMOLED screen was, so held it close to my face. Thats when i noticed the large pixels, the screen looked slightly jaggy. But, its not that bad, in fact its not bad at all, just something i noticed.
@ Bonovox - yeah, i may be nit-picking, but it wasnt something that would put me off the phone or notice as a negative aspect against it.
Btw, those pictures look nice, better than the first few (unless they look different because im on a laptop rather than my desktop pc at home right now). The Galaxy does appear to be a good 5mp snapper. Like you said it clearly wasnt Samsungs first priority. Im still considering taking out a second contract for one !

The screen is stunning in it's contrast & colours & deep blacks plus outdoor visibility. But as far as noticing the pixels it's not that bad it's only cos the same screen res as say the Jet has been strecthed to 4 inches. If you download the animated fish tank from Android market it really does show off the screen. It's one of them live wallpapers

@Bonovox: Yeah I saw that too on gsmarena. that is amazing. I wonder after 5/10 years; how far technology will be developed.
I'll try the fish tank. I like the Blue sea and Ocean waves animated wallpapers which are come with the phone. Today I did a factory reset, there were some dos mode type codes show on the screen while it was restoring. Cool feature.

Yes there is the free aquarium & a donation one. Quickest is to just do a search for it under live wallpapers or aquarium. If you tap the screen the fish start feeding  In the paid version there is more settings

I think it was the animated wallpaper on the test phone i used in CPW last week which also made me love the Galaxy, it was a picture of the sea bed with waves running over it, if i remember correctly.
Does the Galaxy come with a revolving Galaxy wallpaper also ? i saw it did in a review on Youtube.

Is street dancing his occupation? I mean to ask if he gets money or does he just perform a free show to amuse people?

Yes it does come with the galaxy live wallpaper and lots of others too. There are 2 water based live wallpapers and when you tap the screen the water ripples. No I don't do street dancing I was passing by if that was what you mean. |

Just been in CPW and still tempted by the Galaxy

Ya know sometimes temptation is good for you sometimes its not. We can enjoy it while it lasts or enjoy it for a long time. In your case if you got the phone you would enjoy for long time. I hope. The more I pick this phone up in my hand and see its sexy design and gorgeous screen the more I realise i got the most expensive and best phone I ever had. And it just feels and looks amazing. Some people say its big its not it has a 4 inch screen but is not that tall or its slim and sexy. And not a single issue with it unlike Sony Ericsson x10 with plenty of issues and its fat profile.
