The Pros:Slimmer and more compact than the other Galaxy S devices. Solid build quality. Responsive, multitouch Super AMOLED displays - large 3.4" one with a smaller 1.8" ticker underneath.
The Cons:Constructed of cheaper feeling materials. Loaded with tons of applications you can't remove. Ships with Android 2.1 with 2.3 coming out shortly (only promised an update to 2.2).

All features are the same except that the Continuum has a smaller 3.4" display and only 8GB (versus 16GB) of onboard storage. However, the Continuum adds along a secondary 1.8" screen. Unfortunately it lacks the Froyo OS and Dual LED camera found in the DROID line. It does however sport a 5MP LED flash camera with HD video capture; support for streaming video from V CAST, YouTube, and Blockbuster; and optional microSD expansion up to 32GB (8GB included).
Additional Information
Some of the more notable features include Samsung's Social Hub for organizing social
network contacts and email accounts; swipe left and right functionality; and full compatibility with the Bing search engine.
