www.pcworld.com PCWorld Video: Samsung releases two great Android smartphones that are almost identical: The Vibrant on T-Mobile and the Captivate on AT&T. They’re easily the best Android phones that either mobile provider offers. Ginny Mies takes a look.

I have the iPhone 4 and I’m tired of the less than .5 percent of people who have an iPhone and have the antenna problem complaining about it cause its not even as bad as they make it sound like
u freakin liar they both have antenna issues on the right side i have them
dis phone is amazing !! i got it for 2 weeks now…
Hi Jonny, I’m Antonio and I’m in my vacation but unfortunately my phone’s locked,do you have any idea about unlocking this phone.
review continued…there’s alot more pros but my i have a word limit =)
CONS: GPS out the box has issues…there a few code fixes that really help the phone lock alot faster.
- Crashes like mad if you use Advance task killer
-No front facing camera like Galaxy S i9000
- No LED Flash, and also Camera takes so-so quality pictures only 5MP, not 8MP like Evo or Droid X, but 720p Video capture is amazing!
- BATTERY LIFE….pro tip…turn off 3g radio when not in use, drains battery life in stand by
I’ve had the vibrant for a 2 weeks now….in short its amazing…quick review
PRO: T-mobile network is really fast in New York …i get pretty much 3Mbs down anywhere in the city and with a bad signal it goes down to like 700kbs-1.5Mbs
+ Screen is amazing, videos, pictures, everything looks fantastic
+ Speed, this phone is fast, its at least on par with a nexus one with froyo if not faster
+ the damn thing comes with 16GB of internal storage i don’t need to buy an expensive sd card now =)
@starfish2344 The non-US version has flash… I wonder why they took it out >_>
i have the vibrant…steve jobs is the reason why i got rid of my iphone4 that phone was a piece of shit…i went back to tmobile because of the vibrant and i love the vibrant i had no issues at all dont got to worrie about the death grip hahahah sucks to have that iphone oh your holding it wrong hahahahaha samsung vibrant rules go android go…2.2 froyo can wait
looks like a knock off iphone
I just ordered the Vibrant and can’t wait to get rid of this CLIQ XT. I’ve had the thing since Feb and now one of the phones internal speakers is off and Tmobile has not protocol for troubleshoting it. I look forward to the Vibrant!
@hellowsaw i agree. i have no problems at all. im not going to hate on no other phone. because i am a tech dude. but this phone does really rock. for me at least. i hold the Vibrant with both hands. and it makes crystal clear calls. real snappy processor. and its only running 2.1 eclair. Cant wait for 2.2 Froyo. bluetooth 3.0 rocks. i transferred all of my old music from my 9700 to it really fast. im sorry people i dont work for t mobile or anything like that. but owned alot of phones. thumbs up
no flash again!!!
if its a PDA type of phone how do you not have flash.
@YoyoFlamingo well,, their phones are good, the only thing i dont like are their names,, cuz for me,, it sounds like fruity
@xplayerps2x Nah, Samsung doesn’t use “i” in every single products they make, their naming scheme is much more creative.
@BreakingOrangeCounty It’s a software issue or so I’m told. The bars show 0 but you still have a connection.
@hellowsaw i don’t know about the european galaxy s but the usa versions of it have antenna issues if you hold it in your right hand.
@BreakingOrangeCounty i have the galaxy s and i can’t find fault with the antenna.
@brilliantmojo galaxy s u mean?
How do you pay for the appstore, and upload music?
now you can get them for $99.00
Right now I have the LG Xenon and I’m thinking about switching to either the LG eXpo or the Samsung Captivate. What one would be better for texting and getting apps? I’m really worried? that if I switch to the Samsung Captivate my texting speed will drop by a lot because I can text insanely fast on my phone that I have now.
that should be called, the samsung iclone
its almost identical to the iphone
get samsung galaxy X
LIES! THEY BOTH HAVE ANTENNA ISSUES!
