Love this phone, especially more so now that it has been upgraded to Froyo 2.2! I find it to be much faster and responsive. Browsing and apps are a snap and quicker to run than with the preinstalled 2.1. Occasional lag, and Force Closes but this may be more of an app responsibility. I hope I can trade this in for the Galaxy SII when I am elegible to upgrade my phone!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is by far the best phone I have ever had. I have always had samsung phone's and they always are reliable.
This is a good product, with it's big screen and awesome camera. I like this phone very well. It is one of the best Samsung phones that I have ever had. I totally love this phone! -except for when it would not receive messages and I had to factory reset it!
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight, great camera
I would recommend this to a friend!

Use the Captivate for all my communications outside of my PC. Quick simple and effective. Touchscreen is better than that of the IPhone.
I love this phone. Fast, great display, can actually make phone calls, and SWYPE is fantastic. I moved from a WM phone with the same carrier so expected the crippling and bloatware. If it were not for a couple of issues, I would have given it 5 stars. GPS performance is disappointing to say the least and the phone occasionally shuts off by itself. If these get resolved, it will be a great phone
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: gps performance
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent device with a poor battery

This is probably the best android device i have seen so far with so light on weight and so powerful. Only thing it lacks is a good supportive battery. It dies quickly.
