The Samsung Galaxy marks a shift in design from the standard line-up of Samsung Galaxy phones, which usually opt for a full frontal touchscreen design. The Galaxy is not the first Galaxy phone to come with a QWERTY keyboard, but these usually take the form of a slide-out side keyboard. The Pro has instead opted for a BlackBerry style design, with a compacted keyboard beneath its screen. This makes it an excellent messaging phone while at the same time providing the same excellent entertainment qualities that have made the Galaxy phones so popular.
Above the keyboard is a 2.8" capacitive touchscreen with a good colour depth of 256k colours and 320 x 240 resolution. The Galaxy Pro comes with an accelerometer as well, allowing you to auto-rotate the interface. The samsung Pro runs on Google Android 2.2 Froyo and is powered by a speedy 800MHz processor. The Galaxy samsung comes with 3G and Wi-Fi connections, allowing you to hook up to the net for all sorts of online activity.
The Galaxy Pro comes with threaded SMS, email support as well as support for instant messaging clients like Google Talk. The samsung Galaxy also supports MMS messages and RSS feeds too. The phone comes with excellent integration for social networks like Facebook and Twitter, and also comes with Picasa integration.
While the QWERTY keyboard is put to good use with all these messaging options there are also plenty of excellent features to keep professional phone users happy. The Galaxy comes with ThinkFree document editor, allowing you to brush up your report on the way to work, and also comes with its own organizer.
YouTube is supported, as is Adobe Flash 10.1 so that you can enjoy video content online. For playing videos and music the Galaxy Pro comes with an excellent media player and has 512MB internal storage space available. While this may seem small to some people it can be upgraded with 32GB microSD cards, and Samsung will be including a 2GB card with the phone.
The Galaxy Pro comes with a 3.15 megapixel camera that also comes with video recording capabilities. There is a picture and video editor present on the Galaxy Pro which can allow you to play around with any images or videos captured on the camera, and the Facebook and Picasa integration allows you to easily share them online. The Galaxy Pro also comes with a secondary front facing camera for video calls.
Like most phones that adopt this form factor, the Galaxy Pro is an excellent phone for all forms of messaging and is particularly suited to professional phone users. It comes with fantastic email support, while at the same time coming with excellent social networking integration.
