Review of Samsung’s Captivate, a Galaxy S Android smartphone for AT&T


AT&T fans can finally rejoice with an Android smartphone that’s competitive with Android offerings on the other U.S. carriers. The Samsung Captivate is the best Android smartphone on AT&T today, and while there are other solid offerings, such as the HTC Aria, the Captivate offers much more power, a larger display, better battery life, and 16GB of on board storage.

The Captivate seems to offer it all, from a 5 megapixel camera to a 1GHz processor and a Super AMOLED display. It’s a beauty all around and was a pleasure to use during my testing experience. However, I did have a few problems with call quality, and its user interface hung from time to time while exiting applications – a bug I hope gets fixed through a firmware update in the future.

Let’s take a look at what makes the Samsung Captivate the best, and most compelling, Android smartphone on AT&T while addressing some of its flaws, too.
