The Samsung Galaxy S<\/strong> and HTC Desire<\/strong> are ones from the best Android based phones in the market. Many buyers always get confused on what to choose when its these 2 phones side-by-side. Both are powered with the AMOLED screen<\/strong> which stand a step ahead of any other mobile in terms of the display and touch interface. Though I’ve not used the HTC Desire, many comparisons and reviews have helped me know about it much. Here are the various aspects where both the mobiles are compared, and which mobile is better in major aspects.<\/p>\n

Design<\/h3>\n

The Samsung Galaxy S is lighter and bigger in every way, when compared to the HTC Desire. It is longer, wider and thinner and more plastic that gives it a very light feel and appearance. The Galaxy weighs less by 16 gms than the Desire. Both have the similar curvy body, but the keys in the bottom are press-to-work in Desire, while in the Galaxy, only the home key need to be pressed. The two on either sides of it are touch sensitive.<\/p>\n

Display<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There is no much difference in the screens of both the phones, which are made with the super AMOLED screen. But the screen size of Galaxy beats the Desire, by being 4-inch wide when compared to 3.7-inch Desire. The screen resolution of both is 800 x 600 pixels, and possess the same features like being scratch resistant, 16M color display, and multi-touch interface. HTC Desire has got a optical trackpad for navigation, which Galaxy doesn’t but Galaxy has a Swype text input feature which is more a geeky one than any good use. But the multitouch in Desire is not very appreciable, and its good at the dual touch features like pinch-and-zoom etc.<\/p>\n

Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In bright environment, both the phones produce the similar image quality being the same 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and face, smile detection. Producing images of resolution 2592 x 1944 pixels. But HTC Desire beats the Samsung Galaxy S here by possessing the LED light, but Galaxy is step ahead in terms of video recording by having a capability of recording video at 720p HD at 30 fps.
\nThere is no front facing camera in HTC Desire, so video calling is practically not possible unless you stand in front of a mirror to do that. Samsung Galaxy S has a front camera, making it easier for video calling, but that’s possible only on 3G networks.<\/p>\n

Memory<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Both the Galaxy and Desire can expand their memory to 32GB, but Desire comes with just 4GB of internal memory when compared to the 8GB\/16GB versions of Galaxy. The call and message memory is unlimited for both.<\/p>\n

Connectivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Galaxy beats the Desire in many ways of connectivity, i.e. Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and EDGE connections. The bluetooth technology in Galaxy is 3.0 vs. the 2.0 in Desire, faster speed in HSUPA and the EDGE technology being faster, which is at the best advantage as the smartphones always need to be at the highest level of connectivity to be connected on the go.<\/p>\n
