Samsung galaxy s i9003 review

I recently lost my samsung galaxy s 9000 . One of the best in class phones i ever owned.

I thought of buying a lower end android phone from samsung but felt that most of them will not give me experience close enough and increase dependance on laptop again. I then saw galaxy s i9003 at 19k costing nearly 8k less then i9000.and with almost similar specs except the lcd is little lowerend.

I bought it found it  ery close to i9000 experience. But i have been observing many issues lately that make the 8k discount questionable..

- lcd is surely quite a downgrade compared to super amoled. I cannot see anything  under sunlight creating issues in taking snaps outdoor.

- touch response is also a downgraded.
- the biggest issue being observed is that performance of gprs edge connectivity is quite poor leading to failures often. Even gsm signal detection is poor . It looses the tower signal often.
- it only allow 4 browser windows to open at a time though i9000 allowed 8
- no improvement in gps is observed. Though wifi look faster. Camera software has particularly become very fast and i can take several shots one after other quickly.
