If you are looking for a smartphone with a giant 4" display, then look no further, this is what you should be looking at. The Galaxy S i9003 comes with a better battery (1650mAh instead of 1500mAh in the original Galaxy), Super Clear LCD display (the original Galaxy had the awesome Super AMOLED display, so compared to that i9003 display kind of sucks; if you really want AMOLED, then take a look at Samsung Focus, the Galaxy's WP7 avatar selling for around 14k with a US only warranty in ebay.in).
It runs on Android 2.2 (Froyo) and the Gingerbread upgrade is still on paper (it'll be out soon, but no sign of any cold 'ice cream', if can't wait for the ICS, get the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V for less than 17k, as SE has made some kind of promise that they'll push ICS update to all their 2011 Xperia phones). After going through some user forums the only problem the phone seem to have is the low battery (surprised ?? me too..), and is otherwise a great phone (users are a bit frustrated over the 2.3 update, about which Samsung is really not saying anything, hopefully they'll release it soon ).
