So what does every think about the Galaxy Pro S coming to Sprint?

[ghostyroasty]

I saw this [EXCLUSIVE] More Pictures of the Galaxy S Pro | Android Community article concerning the upcoming Galaxy Pro S to Sprint, and got to thinking... GEEZ My wife was right... I should have waited!! I REALLY wanted to have a keyboard.... and less than two weeks later this pops up.. GEESH!

I think it's ugly(looks like an Instinct) and their TouchWiz is the worst Android skin available with the possible exception of MotoBlur.

I do like that it has a keyboard though.

One word LEGACY!

I kid. I am excited about it. Truth be told had I known about it I may have waited on the EVO to check it out. Looks like it may be my daughter's first phone. But only if it comes with Froyo out of the box.

If you really wanted a physical keyboard why not get the Moment or wait for the Moment 2? I honestly don't care for physical kb's anymore and the EVO's kb is far better than what the HERO had. Though i'll admit it's not an iPhone kb.

I'll never own a phone with moving parts again after the Pre.

Also the Samsung UI is pretty terrible.

Aside from the ugly layout, it is quite tempting. The hardware blows away the Evo. It scored 55.7 FPS on Neocore(assuming it has the same hardware as regular Galaxy S). I will be awaiting more news before any final decisions.

I have until July 3rd to make my return... I might wait as long as possible

Edit: Well scratch that... Wife threw away the box.

There is a Samsung conference June 29th, should expect something interesting out of that.

Anything that brings more customers to Sprint and Android is a good thing for all of us.

it has a front facing cam! I welcome more people with front facing cams. Makes the world feel more connected

The Galaxy S is a very sexy phone and I'm excited for it. I'll probably be a little envious but HTC makes such a good Android device I think that in the end the Galaxy S & EVO will kind of even out as far what people want. I give a nod to Samsung though and if they go stock Android they might have a real winner there.

1. ugly
2. no HTC Sense or HTC build quality/design
3. i hate sliders
4. i hate side keyboards
5. thick?

 

[lnong]

Here's my opinion:
I hate phones that have a keyboard that slides out from the side, just this one, and the TouchPros. First, it makes the phone unnecessarily bulky. Second, it makes it really hard to do one-hand texting.

In general, i hate slideouts. One exception is the Palm Pre which I had owned previously before the EVO. The keyboard on the Pre slides down vertical and it's small enough for me to hold and text using one hand (while driving ). Second, the Pre's design is still much more thin than the other phones with slideout keyboard

If i were to want a phone with sideway keyboard that has all the bells and whistles, i miight as well just get a notebook computer. Prolly not much of a price difference when compared to the regular price of the phone.

Sense UI on Android > Stock Android OS > WebOS > iPhone > BlackBerry > MotoBlur

It's basic science people

So where is Samsung's UI in the equation?

lol it was ment to be after Moto Blur, but nobody cares that much. I just think a bunch of people will choose that ****ty version of Android over then the Sense UI cause of a keyboard. I wouldn't even touch the Android phones if it wasn't for Sense to make things much more effective. Half the widgets and icons is built in to the OS without going through the trail and error with alot of apps in the Market.

I would assume TouchWiz can be turned off. When Froyo lands it won't be needed anyway, although I'm not using Sense either q:

I'm not big on the keyboard but his is worth looking at. If the Galaxy S, even a 3G version comes to Sprint my wife may get that.
She wants and Evo herself after playing with mine but I know there's "better" phones coming before my next upgrade in Dec.

What size is that screen? Doesn't makes sense to drop a moment 2 and a Galaxy w/ keyboard.

 

[jamex]

All I can say is thank god I did not waste my upgrade on the Evo with it's color banding 16bit display. 4.3" screen with a terrible color depth. What were they thinking?

The Samsung has a super clear Active Matrix 16.7 million color display and best of all a keypad. I am so happy

The screen is 4" The sprint version is different but you get the idea. This phone is sweet.
