Awesome Phone
on June 1, 2012
Posted by: indianyeti
This phone is amazing there is virtually nothing it cant do. Personally I think it kills the iphone in terms of features, interface, and value. I love the the multiple home screens in addition to the app menu, a feature the iphone doesn't offer. The screen is beautiful and vivid and is still easy to see in sunlight if you leave the brightness on auto. The speed and smoothness provided by the dual core processor is impressive. The only flaw is that occasionally the phone freezes when you're using multiple applications or high RAM/CPU applications.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, amazing features
Cons: occasionally freezes
I would recommend this to a friend!

I initially skeptical to go for this phone due to size. But was looking for phone which can more comfortable while internet browsing. This phone really good feature rich smartphone and bridging gap between phone and tablets. I'm giving 4 star just because I show some issue when I tried using pause in phone numbers like when you dial extension automatically.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: expensive

Had this phone for a month. Durable and Easy to use. Phone quality is excellent. Apps are easy to find and download. Easily customizable. Sometimes processing can lag, but not sure if that's the phone or network. Battery life will never last more than a day with minimal usage, especially if I've made calls.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

Way better than the Iphone except for the battery life. It does everything way better except keep a charge. Larger easier to see screen, faster CPU, more memory. Cheaper than the iphone, but this device and other androids need more compatible devices. IE ..speakers, stereo systems, car stereos, surround systems.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: bad battery life, case needs to be tougher
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had my SGS2 for just over 2 months (a replacement for my Captivate). So far I love it! It's so quick and with Gorilla Glass again I don't have to use a case or screen protector and get to enjoy it in all of it's sleek beauty :)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, fast, powerful

Hardware Problems
on May 24, 2012
Posted by: SpRi7e

This is my first and only review of this product, just to share out to be aware of the mass amounts of hardware problems I've received. Currently, I am saved that I have recently bought another extra battery with a wall charger that actually charges the battery with no USB connection to the phone needed. The reason why I'm glad is because this is my SECOND Samsung phone that within a year, the USB connection has failed on me rendering in a nearly useless phone. My phone CONSTANTLY had problems with the connection from day 1 along with other minor problems. I had another period of time where it said was ALWAYS charging when I didn't have it connected which at least my phone worked. Then I had a two day period where it went crazy saying every 2 seconds that the phone was charging, then not charging when it was never plugged in resulting in the phone locking up completely. For 2 months, I couldn't even start my phone up unless it was connected to a charger as it would always say it was dead even if it had full battery once started. Besides those HUGE factors that although were 'standable', the problem with the USB port finally stopped working on me completely pretty much destroying my expensive half year old phone. To make this unbiased, I will say the features of the phone, and performance of it is OUTSTANDING. The speed is top notch, amazing camera/video recorder, it is a perfect size (although a better screen resolution would have been cool), and it was extremely customizable. I just wish I didn't get sold a defective phone destined for failure and am extremely displeased with Samsung's quality of the phone hardware itself.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, high res. camera/video
Cons: Poor quality, Not high def, Did not meet expectations, phone constantly had problems, usb connection died within a year, screen very detrimental, tons of hardware problems, software was glitchy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
