The Samsung Galaxy S is an Android smartphone that was announced by Samsung in March 2010. It features a 1 GHz ARM "Hummingbird" processor , 8–16 GB internal Flash memory, a 4-inch 480×800 pixel Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display, Wi-Fi connectivity, a 5-megapixel camera with a maximum resolution of 2560x1920 and, on select models, a front-facing 0.3MP VGA camera (640x480).[2][3] The base version of the phone, the GT-I9000, was quickly followed by variant models for the US carriers such as the Epic 4G, Vibrant, Captivate, Fascinate, and Mesmerize.

The Samsung Galaxy S features a PowerVR graphics processor, yielding 20 million triangles per second,[4] making it the fastest graphics processing unit in any smartphone at the time of release.[5] Also, upon release, the Galaxy S was both the first Android phone to be certified for DivX HD,[6] and at 9.9 mm was the thinnest smartphone available.[7]

As of January 2011, Samsung had sold 10 million Galaxy S phones globally.[8] The Galaxy S was named the European Smartphone of the Year at the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) Awards 2010–2011.[9]

Samsung Galaxy S was succeeded by Samsung Galaxy S II.

Launch

The phone was initially launched in Singapore on June 4, 2010.[10] Before the end of its first weekend on sale in Singapore, Samsung tweeted that Singtel, the exclusive carrier to sell the device in Singapore, were sold out of devices.[11] On Friday June 25, 2010, the phone was launched in Malaysia and South Korea.[12][13] Overall the launch schedule comprised launches on 110 carriers in 100 countries at the same time.[14] U.S. Variants named as Epic, Vibrant, Fascinate, Captivate, and Mesmerize were released from June through September 2010.

Reception

CNET Asia gave the Galaxy S a favorable review with a score of 8.4/10. The Galaxy S was compared to current high-end Android-based phones such as the HTC Desire, Xperia X10, Nexus S, and smartphones using different operating systems like the iPhone 4, which runs iOS, and HTC HD2, which runs Windows Mobile in CNET Asia.[15]

GSMArena.com described the Galaxy S as having "perfect audio quality," claiming the phone's superior all-round performance made it a "new leader of the Android pack."[16]

TIME listed the Galaxy S as #2 device in "Top 10 Gadgets" of 2010, praising its Super AMOLED display.[17]

The phone was criticized by some reviewers for sub-par GPS performance. Anandtech, reviewing the Epic 4G variant, said "the phone will take an inordinate amount of time to determine your actual location, and/or it won’t pinpoint your location very accurately."[18] Engadget described the GPS in the Vibrant and Captivate variants as "utterly broken and non-functional... this is a problem for which there's no reasonable explanation why it made it all the way to retail devices."[19] Samsung released an application for the Captivate and Vibrant variants only that resets the phone's GPS settings to factory defaults.[20] TechRadar acknowledged GPS faults in the Galaxy S, and stated that these have been fixed in the Google Nexus S.[21]

Hardware

Processor

The Samsung Galaxy S has the S5PC110 processor. This processor combines a 45 nm 1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 based CPU core with a PowerVR SGX 540 GPU made by Imagination Technologies which supports OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0[22] and is capable of up to 20 million triangles per second.[4] The CPU core, code-named "Hummingbird," was co-developed by Samsung and Intrinsity.[23]

Memory

The Samsung Galaxy S has 512 MB of dedicated LPDDR2 RAM (Mobile DDR) and 16-32 MB of OneDRAM, It is not certain whether Samsung will manufacture the 32 GB versions due to higher costs.[24] Some variants also come with either 8GB or 16GB of OneNAND memory combined in a package-on-package stack with the processor. An external microSD card slot supports up to 32GB of additional storage memory.[25]

Screen

The Samsung Galaxy S uses a 101.6-millimetre (4.00 in) Super AMOLED touch screen covered by Gorilla Glass, a special crack and scratch resistant material.[26] The screen is a WVGA PenTile display manufactured by Samsung.

Audio

The phone uses Wolfson's WM8994 DAC as its audio hub.[27]

Software

User interface

The phone employs the latest proprietary Samsung TouchWiz 3.0 user interface. Unlike TouchWiz 3.0 on the Samsung Wave, it allows up to seven homescreens. However, different from other Android user interfaces, TouchWiz 3.0 allows users to add, delete and rearrange homescreens. The program launcher is also different from other Android user interfaces in that it has an iOS-like program menu which allows customization of shortcuts. In addition, three of the four shortcuts at the bottom of the screen can also be customized.

The Epic 4G features a specialized version of TouchWiz based on TouchWiz 2.5. Because of the Epic 4G's QWERTY slide-out keyboard, the homescreen needed to be able to rotate into landscape mode, and accordingly several key features and applications are absent on the Epic. TouchWiz 3.0 devices do not support this feature, and because of that difference, the Epic 4G ships with a heavily modified TouchWiz 2.5 interface. The customization of homescreens, as well as several other features found on TouchWiz 3.0 devices like the Vibrant and Captivate, is not supported in the version of TouchWiz that ships on the Epic 4G.

The most important aspect of all three generations of TouchWiz is the widget interface. The most prominent widgets that come with the Galaxy S are the Daily Briefing, weather clock and the Buddies Now widget. In addition to Samsung widgets, standard Android widgets can be added and removed from the homescreens.

Bundled applications

Other provided software includes the Layar Reality Browser, a program that visualizes GPS direction, and Aldiko, an ebook reader. The phone also comes with various upgraded versions of software that came with Samsung's previous generation of smartphones (such as i8910HD and i8000 Omnia II).

Media support

The Galaxy S comes with support for many multimedia file formats, including audio codecs (FLAC, WAV, Vorbis, MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, MID, AC3, XMF), video codecs (mpeg4, H.264, H.263, Sorenson codec, DivX HD/ XviD, VC-1) and video formats (3GP (MPEG-4), WMV (Advanced Systems Format), AVI (divx), MKV, FLV).

Updates

The Android version is network operator dependent and will normally be upgraded over the air, but this will not occur when a handset is configured for one network operator but operated on another network.[citation needed] The latest official Android version for a handset configured for any carrier is available using the Samsung Kies application.[citation needed] There are also third party versions of Android available for the Galaxy S, for example Darky's Rom, but installing them may void the owner's warranty.[citation needed]

Android 2.2 upgrade

When launched, the Galaxy S had Android 2.1 ("Eclair") installed. An official upgrade to Android 2.2 ("Froyo") began rolling out worldwide in November 2010.[28]

Canada received the 2.2 upgrade for select carriers on December 10, 2010.[29]

According to Samsung the 2.2 upgrade should be coming to the USA in early 2011.[30] The 2.2 upgrade was released for T-Mobile on January 20, 2011.[31] It enabled stock Android features that had previously been disabled such as Wi-Fi Calling and Mobile AP.

Verizon's Fascinate was upgraded to Android 2.2 in April 2011. Verizon's Continuum variant, however, remains on Android 2.1.

Android 2.3 upgrade

An Android 2.3 ("Gingerbread") update became available for Nordic countries, The Netherlands and Germany on April 16, 2011. The update reached UK, India and HongKong by the end of May, 2011. Singapore received the update in June. Australia received the update in August. For other countries it is expected to be available later.[32]

Variants

In the United States

The T-Mobile Vibrant, AT&T Captivate, Sprint Epic, and Verizon Fascinate were officially announced at a New York City launch event on 30 June 2010.[33]

  • T-Mobile released a version of the phone called the Samsung Vibrant (SGH-T959) on July 15, 2010,[34] making it the third Android 2.x phone officially supported on the T-Mobile network (after the Nexus One and MyTouch 3G Slide). The Vibrant supports Quad-band GSM operations as well as the T-Mobile 3G network in the UMTS Band IV (AWS, 1700/2100) and also in the UMTS Band I (2100) / II (1900) where coverage and service is available (for example, the Vibrant will work with AT&T 3G where that carrier operates services on the 1900 band). This variant, however, does not operate in 3G in the UMTS Band V (850) because its hardware is not configured for that frequency. It also lacks a front-facing camera and LED flash. The price was $199 with a new, two-year contract, or less through some distributors. T-Mobile bundled the film Avatar, preloaded onto a microSD card, with the phone.[35] T-Mobile also released the Samsung Galaxy S 4G (SGH-T959V) for their 4G (HSPA+) network on 23 February 2011.[36] T-Mobile bundled the film Inception, preloaded onto a microSD card, with this version of the phone.[37]
  • AT&T released a variant of this phone for the United States on July 18, 2010 under the name Samsung Captivate (SGH-I897).[38] It includes 16 GB of internal flash memory, but does not have a front camera, FM radio or LED camera flash. It has various prices from $49.99 to $199.99.
Sprint version
  • Sprint announced the release of Samsung Epic 4G (SPH-D700) for August 31, 2010.[39] It features a 4G radio, a full QWERTY keyboard and reworked version of Android 2.1, as well as some downgrades from other Galaxy models, such as a reduced functionality version of TouchWiz, and a number of applications removed. This version is 14.2mm thick. This includes the front camera of the international version and also adds a camera flash and comes bundled with a 16 GB micro SD memory card. It is also the only Galaxy S variant with a hardware notification LED.[40] The Android 2.2.1 update brings the same TouchWiz featured on all Galaxy S devices.
  • Verizon released the Samsung Fascinate (SCH-I500), which removes the front camera found in the international version, has 384MB of RAM versus 512MB, and adds a camera flash.[41] The Fascinate was made available on September 9, 2010.[42] Its arrival was heralded by some controversy over Verizon's decision to replace the standard Google Search with Microsoft's Bing Search. Verizon later released the Samsung Continuum (SCH-I400) variant which has a smaller 3.4 inch display but adds a small 480×96 "ticker" screen underneath the main screen for showing alerts and messages, activated by a grip sensor.[43] The Continuum was made available November 18, 2010. The Fascinate received the Android 2.2 update on April 21, 2011.
  • US Cellular launched the Samsung Mesmerize on 27 October 2010.[44] Cellular South, also in the US, currently offers a Galaxy S models named Samsung Showcase. They are very similar, if not identical, to the hardware of Verizon's Samsung Fascinate (SCH-I500).[45][46]
  • MetroPCS began to offer the Samsung Galaxy Indulge, which is the first 4G LTE Android smartphone in the U.S., on February 21, 2011. the indulge shrinks the screen size from 4 inches to 3.5 inches, removes the front facing camera, reduces the camera to 3.2 megapixels, removes the flash,lowers the screen resolution from Super Amoled,800x400 pixels to HVGA 480 x 320 pixels and adds a keyboard. However it maintains the 512 mb of RAM, Touchwiz UI, and 1ghz Hummingbird Processor. MetroPCS also bundeled the film Iron Man 2 preloaded onto a 4gb micro sd card with the phone.
