Second day, and I'm still getting used to the device and the environment. I'm comfortable so far. I like the feel of the device in my hand.. Loving the screen size and resolution. Call quality is good even when I'm in the office which is in a high rise building.
I'll try and come back finish the review after about a week and then again in a month.
I am a geek and I still can't get over how impressed I am with the speed and breathtaking display.
I've converted all of my Apple friends, esp. since showing them the voice functionality. Android has finally won the battle and I hope this will win them the war.
Absolutely amazing all-in-one portable computer that happens to be an excellent phone as well! Only concern is the wifi receiver shows a weak signal even when signal strength is strong for all my other wireless devices.
I have had Blackberry phones, Motorola Droid, and played with a friend's HTC phone a lot. Samsung has set the bar high with the GS2. The iPhone 4s was just announced... 1 year after the GS2 came out, and it is still behind Samsung on every level in my opinion, especially on processing speeds and with the Android Marketplace accumulating so many apps. Great phone. Love it. If Samsung has a GS3, I'll buy it too. Keep up the good work Samsung!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, super fast, innovative features like new motion sensing zoom
Screen size is nice, I have a captivate as well and I love it but this is the bigger brother I have been waiting for. The dual core processors, super AMOLED Plus screen, the newer gingerbread build of Android, dual cameras, 4g, a lot of nuance nice features, e.g. samsung vlingo. Lots of nice things to say about the phone.
Great looking phone!!! Works great as well, and super fast!!

I've had the phone for about a week and it does almost everything that my iPhone 4 does. The only thing that it's missing is visual voice mail. It is super fast and looks great. The screen size is the key feature that I was looking for and after Apple announced that the new iPhone was going to be the same screen size this phone was a no brainer!!!
If you're tired of using a smart phone, like the iPhone, that restricts you to the capabilities and functions approved by the company that makes it then the Galaxy S II is the phone for you. Not only is it feature rich and much more usable than the iPhone 4, it already has all the features of the iPhone 4S and is expandable beyond the scope of anything that Apple currently provides. Features like hands-free voice activation, output of 1080p video directly to HDMI ports on your HD enabled TV, Flash Player, expandable memory, a replaceable battery and a screen that is almost a full inch larger are deal breakers! Move over iPhone, the Galaxy S II is everything you want to be and more.
I've been a big fan of the competiion however the Galaxy IIs attracted me with its dual core and battery life. Once powered on, I was hooked. Its sleek, fast, and beautiful.
Pros: Lightweight, battery life, application & os speed, screen
