Samsung Fascinate

The Samsung Galaxy S, also known as the GT-I9000, is a fabulous phone nonetheless. It is one of the few mobile phones that can compete head to head with Apple’s iPhone and win. The series itself is developed even further based on the carrier’s needs and preferences. The Samsung Captivate, for example, is a GSM version of Galaxy S designed with HSUPA connectivity and tons of interesting features. If you want to enjoy the marvels of Samsung Galaxy S using a CDMA carrier, then the Samsung Fascinate is the right phone for you.

Samsung Fascinate has the same 4-inch AMOLED display used in other Galaxy S mobile phones. The display is stunning nonetheless, allowing you to view crisp and vivid details of the interface, the web you might be browsing, or even HD multimedia files. The viewing angle is also spectacular even when tested under extreme sunlight.

Samsung Fascinate comes with Android 2.1 Éclair and Samsung’s very own TouchWiz 3.0, but an update to Android 2.2 Froyo is just around the corner. The 1GHz processor is certainly more than capable of running Froyo as well as other resource-intensive apps, although Samsung Fascinate – just like any other Galaxy S phones – comes with only 384MB or RAM.

Another great thing you will love about the Samsung Fascinate is its front and back cameras. The back camera is capable of capturing still images at 5-megapixel. Although LED flash is not available, the autofocus mechanism works seamlessly with Fascinate’s large screen. 720p video recording is also a feature you will enjoy.
