Samsung OS sucks so I'll never understand why people buy them. Unless like recent phones they use someone elses OS.
really never saw what was wrong with their GUI, I found it efficient and easy to use, but I've never had an issue with gui's other than moto. Maybe the only thing that bugged me on samsung was no calling profiles, but that was long ago | |

Most of the average people, particularly girls love the Samsung phone designs. I have only ever liked  designs myself, I have had a few Nokias and a Samsung C100, which was a sweet candy bar phone, but overall for me have the most attractive phones based on looks, right now T700 is my favorite candybar, G705 is my favorite slide, and Z770 is my favorite flip phone, but I always prefer candybars which excel in.

Its been obvious to onlookers for months now that Samsung is on the heels of Nokia. Toppling Nokia (globally) still looks like a dream, but I very well expect them to take a significant bite out of Nokia's share.
Like I said on another thread not too long ago, Samsung is playing Nokia at their game - releasing lots of phones, especially in the budget segment (where the market really is). The UI is better than ever too, and the features are good.
While we may compare the 5800 and the Omnia, these belong in another segment; not the critical budget segment. Unfortunately, us geeks don't often pay enough attention to budget phones  but that's where the real battle of numbers is fought and won (or lost).

SE played that game too but it didn't work because they left a vacuum in their high-end segment. The high-end segment is needed as a branding anchor and Samsung has drawn out their biggest guns on this segment. Kudos to them, they've always been a second choice of mine (not in a demeaning way, I'm just a fool hooked on SE)

True, and well said.
