Best phones around at the minute?

I'd go Desire - the interface is better in my opinion, but particularly key is that the camera has a flash. Samsung doesn't.0

I'm in the same position as you at the moment. But this is what I think:
Both have brilliant screens but the Galaxy S has a s4" screen (0.3" bigger than the desire)
The Galaxy has bluetooth 3.0(However it is not used in many devices atm)
It also has wireless n but the desire can be easily hacked to also have wireless n
The Galaxy S has no camera flash
The touch wiz software on top of andriod on the Galaxy S isn't as good as on the desire.
The Desire also feels/ looks better in the hand. It is made of glass/rubber/metal while the Galaxy S is made of just plastic.
That's my opinion anyway!0 -

I love my phones and advised my GF to get the Desire... i'm now insanely jealous because its a brilliant, brilliant phone.
The Galaxy S is supposed to be even better but not tried it so couldn't say but I would have one like a shot if its true.0 -

Another 1 with a desire, it is pretty good and can only get better, the galaxy s does look pretty good as well0

Friend has the Galaxy S. It's BIG, but it's lighter than the Desire. It also feels ... I dunno ... 'cheap' ? It's really plastic, and doesn't weigh much. The desire is non-slip.Starting Debt: ~£20,000 01/01/2009. DFD: 20/11/2009 :j
