Diwali is just round the corner. Time for shopping and for men, what’s better than buying electronic gadgets. For some specific reasons I was looking for a smartphone which meets my requirements. I wanted a 3G phone with internet, camera, big screen, video player, facebook, youtube and mobile TV etc.


I zeroed in on two phones, One was Samsung Galaxy POP and the other was DELL XCD35. I compared the features and was in a fix as to which one to choose. Finally I decided to go for Samsung Galaxy POPafter checkingreviews onMouthshut ( 2 reviews of DELL that too negative reviews ) and friend’s opinion.


Features are almost same except Dell has some advantages: Bigger screen-3.5”, Better screen resolution, Better internal memory


Rest of features are almost same like Wi Fi, 3G, 3MP Camera and more.


Although I was tempted to buy Dell, I decided to check demos of both the phones. Galaxy pop was available of the shelf where in Dell you have to order and it comes after 3 –4 days.


Also the service network of dell is not good enough which means you will be running from pillar to post to get your phone repaired or replaced.


I am writing this review after using it for 3 weeks.


Details are given below:


Platform:


Galaxy POP has android 2.2 OS and 7.2 Mbps HSDPA


"BACKGROUND: white; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt">Display is good with 240 x 320 QVGA Display however this is lower as compared to other phones. It has TFT Touchscreen display. Colors are bright and resolution is good enough to watch movies. Screen size is 3.2 “ which is ok to explore websites and documents. This has multi touch that allows you to pinch and make the pictures or text bigger or smaller.


Camera:


It has a standard 3 Mega Pixel Camera with 3x Digital Zoom. It has many picture modes like Single/Smile/Continous/Panorama Shot Modes. Camera is just ok. Find it tough to scan barcodes. Video recording is possible. You can use zoom up to 3x while shooting video. Video messaging is possible. This also supports Video Streaming.


Radio:


FM Radio with 3.5 mm jack. You have to use headphone for it and put on speaker mode. Volume is comparatively low. Music player is good and no headphone required to play on speaker.


Connectivity:


Galaxy Pop is It is Wi Fi enabled. It is a 3G phone and supports high speed internet browsing. It has Bluetooth 2.1. USB Mass Storage is available. It has PC Sync (Kies) for data transfer from PC to phone and vis-a-versa.


Battery:


It has 1,200mAh Standard Battery Capacity. I am NOT satisfied with the battery life as if you use all the functions like Wi-Fi, GPS, Internet etc, the battery gets drained out in a day ( including making and receiving calls). It takes 4-5 hours to recharge the battery to 100%.


Memory:


It has the Internal Memory of 160 MB and External Memory- MicroSD up to32 GB.


Pre Loaded Applications:


•Android Market


•Document Viewer


•Document Editor


•E-mail


•Instant Messaging


•G-Talk


•Facebook


•Youtube


•Java


•Google maps


Conclusion:


Samsung Galaxy POP is the most affordable touchscreen, 3G enabled android phone as the price is just rs. 7,800/-. It’s a steal to get so many features and android technology. It’s a true value for money phone. You can download unlimited games and apps through Android market and Samsung apps. It will keep you entertained as there are thousands of interesting apps.


Most suited for following professions:


Just thought of adding this as different people use different phones for specific purpose's.


Designers, Advertising professionals, architects, interior decorators and engineers will find this phone apt. Being an advertising professional, I find it extremely convenient to view ad designs and layouts on the move, quickly give instructions on G Talk and send the design for printing etc.


Viewing designs, diagrams, layouts with an option to zoom it enables you to take a bigger and closer look at designs and take required decisions.


Real estate people will surely find this interesting as the Panorama mode allows you to take a 360 degree view of the property and interiors. Also this can be mailed through internet or MMS.


Good enough to watch movies and play games.


Just go for it.
