I somehow managed to slam my HTC desire in my car door shattering it in the process...After fun and games with my insurance company, they have to replace it but don't have the Desire in stock and don't know when they will. They've offered me the 8GB Galaxy S as a compromise...

Would you accept this? I've been reading a number of reviews which basically say each have their faults but neither comes out on top! I loved my Desire when I had it but I don't want to be stuck with the Galaxy S if I hate it!

Your opinions on this would be great as I really cannot decide! Thanks!

Well it's personal prefrence.

Personally I prefer the Desire, but there isn't a lot in it. I would take a SGS, but not over the Desire, if you understand.

If that's all they have to offer then fair enough. But shouldn't your insurance have a like for like policy?

They do and they will, if I don't accept this offer, get me a Desire. It's just they don't know how long that will take! I've been without the phone now for over a month and I'm getting Android withdrawl symptoms!

In a heartbeat. And I have both.

What do you find better about the Galaxy over the Desire then? Is it the better quality screen or is there more to it?

Well personally I'd wait for a couple weeks.
If you are desperate though, I doubt you will be disapointed in the SGS :)

This is what I'm tempted to do..If I get the SGS and I like it less than the Desire, I'll know what I'm missing out on! If I hadn't owned either before and got the Galaxy, I'm sure I'd love it!
 
Thanks for the advice everyone! I think I might try and get my hands on one this weekend to make the final decision then! I disabled sense on the Desire anyway for LauncherPro so I'd do that anyway I suspect on the Galaxy!
