We recently saw Samsung launch their promo site for the Instinct, and it seems they are now looking for a rumble. Another newly launched site NowIsGood, is offering a closer look into a few of the key features on the Instinct, some of which are currently lacking in some of the competition the iPhone. NowIsGood gives a quick overview on GPS, video, the touchscreen, fast internet capability and the ability to watch live TV on the Instinct. That combined with a slogan of “finally an amazing touch-screen phone with a network to back it up” and “slow ends this june” its more than safe to say they are going directly after the iPhone and AT&T.

In the first of a five video series we get a look at the GPS capability of the Apple iPhone vs. Samsung Instinct. Can you guess who wins?

While we see a lot of mention about this iPhone killer and that iPhone killer, its very refreshing to see someone directly go after it. Don’t forget to keep checking back for the rest of the videos as they come available.
