If I had a penny every time a friend asked me this question I would be a rich man now. Not all of us are geeks, so I decided to answer this question (exact phrase – “What is the Galaxy S“) once and for all. So here comes:
Galaxy S is Samsung’s super-popular smartphone that runs Android. Announced in March 2010, it is also known by other names in the U.S. such as Epic 4G (Sprint’s version with side-sliding QWERTY keyboard), Vibrant (T-Mobile), Captivate (AT&T), Fascinate (Verizon Wireless) and Mesmerize (US Cellular).
The Galaxy S was superseded by the Galaxy S II (GT-I9100), which was unveiled on February 13, 2011 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Much more powerful, the second generation Galaxy S phone is still considered one of the best Android smartphones. It comes with a bigger 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus touchscreen (the original Galaxy S has a 4-inch display), faster 1.2GHz dual-core processor (vs single-core 1GHz CPU), 8-megapixel camera on the back (vs 5-megapixel one), 2-megapixel front-facing camera, GPS, Bluetooth 3.0 and 16GB of built-in storage…
So there you have it – hopefully, I won’t have to answer this question anymore; rather I’ll just give anyone asking the URL of this article.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
