Phone feels great. Very impressed.
Some people kept saying it felt cheap but it does NOT feel cheap it feels well made but it doesn't feel as good as a Nexus One.
Some people said and showed on video that it was laggy but it was NOT when I tested it.
I like how thin it is and the XL Super AMOLED Screen
I also just demoed one. And sad to say it kills my nexus. The screen is absolutely gorgeous .... avatar was like blue ray quality and the 3d gpu really is nice.
I ran neocore and it was just amazing... the phone is light but does not feel cheap at all, actulmy very surprised after some reviews said its like a toy..
I'm selling my n1 now and getting g one as soon as I can

I sold my N1 Monday and been without a phone for a few days
I think some people say it feels cheap because of the weight and they think heavy phones are made with better materials, That's like saying the $750,000 Zonda F (witch is made of Carbon fiber) is cheap because it's lighter than most super cars .

$650 with the car dock and 300 apps on the SD
I targeted people over seas, that's were you will get the most money because most of those guys can't get it and the android phones they have don't have protected apps or paid apps in the market.

Boy the nexus looks like a pale terd compared to the evo. Sucks for you guys. You know, owning a pale, outdated terd.
............the ****?
mod close/lock/delete?
Troll much? Evo isn't too special yet. Rooted my friends last night and honestly out the box it runs slower than a rooted myTouch running senseUI.
You love it son

You ain't beating ****. You want to get violent over a phone,come get some.
funny cause i just came from the sprint store 15 minutes ago, playing with the evo, and it was a shame the evo was so slow and laggy. i felt actually bad. the nexus was so buttery smooth in comparison. i'm sure removing sense UI would fix it right up though. get vanilla android on that sucka!
All I have to say is, you're on Sprint.
Nexus wins.
i hope this thread stays open just for entertainment purposes
Don't be too hard on the poor guy! After all, not everyone can afford a Nexus One. The Evo is a very nice phone, but feels too big in the hand compared to the N1. The color saturation of the N1's screen and noise canceling mic is enough to keep me a happy camper!
BTW, the rodriguezstyle Froyo ROMs absolutley scream - they are so fast and smooth!

LOL so you got another (crappier) front facing camera for a video service that costs extra, an 8 MP camera in the rear, a s**tier screen which is bigger but dull and glossy as hell, and...oh yeah...otherwise identical hardware.
HAVE FUN WAITING FOR YOUR PRECIOUS SENSE UI FIRMWARE UPDATES...FOREVER. You'll be on 2.1 firmware till the end of time, while I run froyo and laugh at you...because I wont have to buy a new phone to get a software update. Enjoy. noob.
Your smoke is a thick cloud of cr#p!
Mod: close this.

He spelled turd wrong.
I don't think he's the sharpest tool in the shed.
Good luck fitting that thing in ur pocket. I wouldn't use an evo if u paid me. Not to mention by the time the evo gets froyo we will already be on Lollypop
Can I just say that this phone is great. Samsung really made me happy. I have some of the issues on these forums but consider them quite minor given the benefits the phone allows me.
It's by far and away the best phone i've used. And i'd like to think I have played with/owned most of them, except the latest nokias.
For all the troubles people are reporting there aren't enough of us saying how great it is.
Lets not forget though that the people on this forum also need thanks as they're the ones helping to fix most of the SGS2 troubles some are reporting. Bravo.
I feel that the troubles people are experiencing are minor. Which is great as it means Samsung really put on a good show from day one if all people are complaining about are what I would consider minor usability issues.
At this rate i'll be moving from recommending HTC's latest handsets as the top tier to Samsung.
Agree
By far the best phone I've ever used. Before I got this I had Nexus S for 2 months which I sold for a LG Optimus 2X which lasted just 5days. Lots of positves & the few negatives are pretty minor. A bargain too as I got it on the O2 contract with the cashback deal.
Seems to be quite future proof as well, looks like I might be keeping this one for the full 2yr contract.
this thing blows away everything else to an exponential degree and also agree i can use this for 2 years and am very happy keeping it insured
this phone is great
agree the potential is mind boggling cant wait for roms and themes etc to start
Nice try. .
Best phone that i've ever owned
GPS works great
wifi works great
screen looks great
form factor is awesome
solid construction
best performing portable devices i've ever owned

I am afraid the vibration feature is too weak due to the miniature form factor.
Also please be careful not to get stuck in the Micro SD card slot, I have heard enough of these stories from my surgeon friend.
yeap agree with everything the op said.this phone dominates.i was going to keep my sgs as a toy but after my sgs2 arrived i didnt touch it again haha.i remember reading all the tech sites, everyone worrying about dual cores chewing battery etc.all i have to say is that my batt life is the same doing the same things it just does it faster.cheers sammy.4th product in a row i bought from them.(wave.sgs.tv.sgs2)
Has anyone read on this new 5 in screen phone thats about to drop. Specs sound pretty good. I might make the jump if it comes to the states. Here's the engadget link.

Let's see if Dell will surprise us all with similar spec on the new streak .. LOL
Two words: Battery Life
The deal-maker for me will be battery life. Some guy on the ATT forums says he's getting about 5-6 hours of battery life from his Samsung Infuse and that's a deal-breaker for me. Hopefully the Pantech engineers will surprise us with something that can last the day w/o plugging it in....
Hopefully it'll be available outside of Korea, as well, otherwise a lot of us are gonna have to get down there somehow. And with unsubsidized pricing it'll probably cost a pretty little penny.
Yea man sweet looking phone be good to have that on the north american side of the pond, be better if dell beat those specs though a qhd screen quad core 1.2ghz 16g internal with 32g expansion betterusic player with a bloody good equalizer an 5.1 dolby etc, then again asus has a thing going on, no specs or good pics of it just snap shoots of ramdom parts of the device with a slogan breaking the rules pad or phone be anonnced at the end of the month if it beats the streak im moving on to the dark side

periods are for girls (pun!), any true man doesnt use them.
On Topic, I'm really hoping the asus thing is a 5" phone and not an atrix-like device like some are speculating. I really like asus' products and a 5" phone from them would be perfection.
will this have US compatible bands? or we will have to wait for US version.

Watching this video has put my mind at ease
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErXqnQKs-tA&feature=player_detailpage
I guess you need to check you link format
link edited, how do I post it directly here.
Wow!
Wow! That is amazing...
Now I can relax when i open the back cover and see it creaking and bending!
Thanks for the video, I changed phone providers (with many problems ) so feel much better since I change SIMS twice a day until my provider port over my old number.
Well, I'll show no mercy while removing the back cover from now on. That would not refrain me to buy a gel case though.
Edit: thanks for the vid
That's unbelievable
... and some people call this cheap plastic . Sure, everybody will want the back covered with some magical glass
This looks unreal!!
Just WOW! Really nice
What logo(carrier) is that @ the top? My back case only has the Samsung logo on it.
is old video and all battery cover are flexible lol
Didn't surprise me at all. It's flimsy because it's thin, but that doesn't mean it's weak or will break easily. I've always loved the thin back-cover

I've never really quite thought the accusation of bad build quality was ever warranted on the Galaxy S phones. Who the hell wants to carry a brick anyway!
I personally think the build quality on the S2 is noticeably better than its predecessor too. I can't quite understand some comments I've seen from some folks ruling out the SGS2 as they'll say stuff like "it wouldn't last 24 months etc". Load of balls if you ask me...

please show me
ive owned over 10 phones and if i ever did that it would break
I also feel the build quality is excellent.I never have any problem turning heads whenever I take the phone out of my pocket in public. Its a sure shot attention grabber if thats the kind to thing you need to get a ego boost.
Today I went back to using my old mobile Nokia N86 (while S2 was charging), and I was surprised by how ancient that phone feels now, just after using S2 for 7 days.
The best phone I have had till date, now that I have seen this video, I know its durable too...........

Not sure if the K or L model have the same back cover, or if it's a carrier-specific thing though.
EDIT: Looks like the SHW-M250L (for LG U+) has a different logo. A different camera layout too.
Woot plastic ftw! Though for the price we paid it shoulda been titanium, just sayin

Not sure if it's real obviously.....
I believe that there were complaints about pocketability of the v2 but after seeing this photo I can't say I agree with their concern.
wow... is that the new Super AMOLED HD+++ ?
Looks like they they made the Note a bit smaller. Cost saving measures, no doubt.
pre-order right away!
That's actually a prototype of the "bloatware" model coming to AT&T...

Is the new Super Ultra Amoled 4K HD Plus. A friend of friend that has a friends who's friends with another friend who's cousin has a friend that is friends with someone which his friends father works at Samsung by taking out the trash.
You won't believe what you can find these days in Samsung's trash.
Also it has an octo-core SOC clocked at 4Ghz with the graphics performance of 3 580s in SLI and a new advance unannounced nuclear based battery that never runs out. Well that's what came to my end from all the above.
Is it confirmed to get ICS?

Typical.. As soon as I buy one a better one comes out, though I think Nokia may sue based on the radical new design...

Damn... 4Ghz? That's a deal killer for me... I won't settle for less than 4.5129Ghz....
Oh and I hear its camera is only 20MP.... :sigh:

That looks exactly like the i*hone 5, Apple released a statement that they're gonna sue.
