I had just switched from the i phone to the Motorola Photon and loved android but the phone itself had issues and i could not believe the difference there was when i exchanged the photon for this it is like night and day!!!!!! faster lighter better i love it and once again am sold on Samsung products they always give us a win
Upgraded from a Blackberry 8900 and I feel as though I have instantly stepped into the future! It is bigger than I anticipated but that actually helps my transition from keyboard to touch and the super amoled screen is simply amazing! The fact that the back is plastic is a plus for me, the scratching on a metal back would drive me up the wall.
This is the greatest phone I have ever used! I use to be the biggest fan of the HTC Evo, however, the Epic II has just won me over. It has the most amazing display that I have ever seen! Watching X-men origins on it was no different then watching it on my tv at home! The 8 megapixel camera takes photos that are breathtaking! Displaying in 1080p on your phone as well as when you hook it up to your tv. The biggest thing of all is the speed! Listening to pandora radio through bluetooth speakers while playing Nova 2 or Gun Bros. The phone can actually do ALL the things that I want to with my phone. Finally! Highly recommend this to everyone!
This phone is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The phone looks amazing and although it is large, it doesn't feel weird to hold in your hand. This phone has the highest contrast ratio I've ever seen in a phone. The blacks are very deep and the whites are very bright. The colors are extremely dynamic and beautiful, they really pop. This phone is lightning fast with it's 1.2GHz Dual Core processor. Video and pictures are amazing with the 8MP camera on the back. Recording in full 1080p is unbelievable, as is recording in 720p. I personally prefer recording in 720p because it allows you to zoom in while recording (1080p doesn't allow you to do this). The LED on the back is very bright and quite useful if shooting video in dark places.
The only thing I've found that I don't like is after I installed my 32GB microSD card and installed "Advanced Task Killer." After doing those two things, start up from 'sleep' is noticeably delayed. When you hit the power button to turn on the screen, there's about a 1+ second delay. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it used to be instant with no delay at all. I'm not sure what did it, but it's not that big of a deal anyway.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, 8mp camera w/ led
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am in love with this phone. I was absolutely tempted by the lure of Apple products, but the specifications and functionality of the SII was just too good to give up. It has a large, immaculate screen, with amazing touch capabilities. I can't help but love it's large frame, but feather weight! Samsung really outdid themselves with this product! It does everything I need and more. I'm not embarrassed to show it off! It has great integration with all social networks, emails and web capabilities. Notifications are fun, and Android is extremely easy to use. I would recommend this phone to anyone, without delay. Get. This. Phone.
Just got this phone and I can say I am blown away! Have used many smartphones including the Iphone but love the features and presentation of this device. Screen is beautiful, better looking than Photon or EVO 3D IMO. Super slim but "plasticky". Speed is instantaneous. Samsung UI much improved. Easy to remove pre-installed bloatware. Cord for charger could be longer, but that is just nitpicky. Love it!!!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: plastic
I would recommend this to a friend!
