By This week in Samsung Galaxy S launches, China’s the latest market to receive its own version – the GT i9008 – sometime soon, according to Samsung Hub‘s tipster. The phone will be released with China Mobile and China Telecom, but no pricing and availability information could be confirmed.
There’s nothing else to this because, well, we all know what the Galaxy S is, what it does, and what Samsung’s trying to do with it. Having said that, just a quick refresher on specs: 1GHz Hummingbird, 5-megapixel camera, HD video recording, a Super AMOLED 4-inch display, and Android 2.1 + TouchWiz 3.0.
I wonder if it will have the same dysfunctional GPS as the Captivate?
You mean the same dysfunctional GPS like EVERY other version of the Galaxy S worldwide?
yep.

cyberz, Google “Samsung Galaxy S GPS problems” and you will see that problems with accuracy/lock time/stability have been reported from around the globe. It is not carrier specific.
Hi,
Galaxy S GPS have BCM4751 chip, state of the art. However, before have used iphone 3Gs GPS which any time lost the signal and fix after a long time.
the Galaxy S never lost the signal and fix after litte seconds.
Obviously, the best choice is an external antenna or dedicated gps, like my “old” Globalsat external antenna. Galaxy is a phone!
Regards
Excuse. me for my bad English!
yeah, just hope the fix comes soon as they promised. I’m amazed by the support samsung invests into these phones. way to go!

The Galaxy S GPS DOES NOT WORK – Those who think it does do not understand how gps should work. SO STOP SAYING IT DOES!
If Samsung KIES would be working, if the GPS would be working, if the black screens would be fixed, if the network bugs would be fixed, if the battery would last longer and if you could use the phone anywhere in the world without need of different standards, it would be a nice device and the smartphone of your choice. For now… it is crap. Wait for buying, don’t go betatesting!
