Owner's Review

Phone owned for less than a year

I compared lots of smartphones when i bought it just not to be sorry and I am not.
I had an Apple iPhone 4S for more than a year, than i had this phone for 10 months and now i have an Samsung Galaxy S3. So I am not a fanboy for Android, Apple or Windows phones.

Not really a smart phone

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Probably the worst phone I've ever had. In it's time of course. But certainly and by far the worst of the three smart phones I've had. Or I can't really call it a smart phone because it wasn't exactly smart. I mean the look was fine. But that was about it. Before the S2 I had a SONY Experia Mini Pro which I found rather nice. But after it had died - as a Mac user I thought of iPhone and considered it unjustifiably expensive. Over the top. So I looked around, read all the reviews and bought the S2. That's where the drag started. And it went on for another three months! It never broke down it never froze but it never really worked or delivered results either. There always seemed to be some inexplicable BUT. As someone used to the indulgent efficiency of Apple products I couldn't bear it any longer. Some three day ago a good man replied to my advertisement - with a deep relief I gave him the S2 and 120€ and he gave me a worn-out iPhone 4s. All the problems I'd have with the tiam-tun somehow miraculously evaporated the first night and I woke up into new days without a device that never really works, presumably speaks some outlandish language you just can't understand and which keeps being a nuisance.

SII Plus

Phone owned for less than a month

The Samsung Galaxy S II is a touchscreen-enabled, slate-format Android smartphone designed, developed, and marketed by Samsung Electronics. It has additional software features, expanded hardware, and a redesigned physique compared to its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S; it was succeeded by the Samsung Galaxy S III in May 2012.[6] The S II was launched with Android 2.3 "Gingerbread", with updates to Android 4.0.4 "Ice Cream Sandwich",[7] and it currently can be updated to Android 4.1 "Jelly Bean".
Samsung unveiled the S II on 13 February 2011 at the Mobile World Congress.[8] It was one of the slimmest smartphones of the time, mostly 8.49 mm thick, except for two small bulges which take the maximum thickness of the phone to 9.91 mm.[9] The Galaxy S II has a 1.2 GHz dual-core "Exynos" system on a chip (SoC) processor,[10] 1 GB of RAM, a 10.8 cm (4.3 in) WVGA Super AMOLED Plus screen display and an 8-megapixel camera with flash and 1080p full high definition video recording. It is one of the first devices to offer a Mobile High-definition Link (MHL),[11] which allows up to 1080p uncompressed video output to an MHL enabled TV or to an MHL to HDMI adapter, while charging the device at the same time. USB On-The-Go (USB OTG) is supported.[12][13]
The user-replaceable battery gives up to ten hours of heavy usage, or two days of lighter usage.[14] According to Samsung, the Galaxy S II is capable of providing 9 hours of talk time on 3G and 18.3 hours on 2G.[14][15]

S II Revival

Phone owned for less than a month

this phone is less expensive than original S2 AND there is reason for that, and that is its cheap processor and GPU. although this doesn't make any bigger difference. call quality is good but you can hear the call sound from the phones back just under the camera and this is a problem with this model. screen colours are bit off the charts and give you a hint of a bluish tint as most of the AMOLED screen owners complain. overall this phone is good for you if you want to experience the innovations brought in by samsung's efficient use of android in an affordable price.
