However, it is likely you will not want to stop using your Samsung Captivate. This is particularly true when you consider its multi touch 4 inch super AMOLED screen that can dazzle your eyes with 16 million colors spread over 480 x 800 pixels. The screen is anti reflective, which means you can use your Samsung Captivate to watch videos, play games, or read, whether you're inside or outside. You have no need for a physical keyboard with the Captivate's screen, as it comes with a virtual QWERTY keyboard to enable you to type and text to your heart's content. Additionally, you can buy numerous Samsung Captivate screen protectors to keep the screen in great condition from the date of purchase. And when you aren't idling at the screen, you can take videos and pictures with the included camera, which offers 5 megapixels of resolution in photo mode, and 1280 x 720 video shooting capabilities. That's 720p, or High Definition, which means your videos will look amazing no matter where you play them, including on high definition TVs. The camera also includes numerous effects and features such as auto focus, a self timer, and a smile detection function.

Finally, when you aren't playing games or shooting video on the go, you can enjoy video on the Samsung Captivate due to its expandable memory and MPEG4 playback capabilities. While the built in memory is a healthy 16,384 megabytes, sometimes you just want more space. For that, you can use the memory slots to insert your own micro SD or micro SDHC cards, which means your capacity to record, watch, and store your best videos is essentially limitless.
