The press releases came out just as the Samsung event was starting, so we knew some details before Samsung even announced it, but now we know most of the details. The Galaxy S II is officially coming to the US, and will launch on three of the four major carriers. Let's break it down. First, we'll take a look at the official specs that should be the same across carriers, then get into the carrier specific variations.
The Samsung Galaxy S II will feature:
Sprint Epic 4G Touch
Samsung Exynos™ 1.2GHz dual-core processor
8MP, rear camera w/auto-focus and flash, capable of recording video in 1080p HD
2MP, front camera
Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread
Voice Talk by Vlingo™ for voice commands including: voice dial, text message, navigation, music, web browsing and search
Task Manager to view and close the applications and to check on memory usage via the Task Manager widget
Screenshot feature by pressing the power button and the home key simultaneously (something Apple will surely consider suing over)
Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface provides "superior multitasking and customization for an enhanced visual and intuitive smartphone experience"
HDMI out, Smart Adapter connects to any HDTV with video through the Media Hub at 480i (DVD quality)
