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...........

That's the Korean model (to be specific, the SHW-M250S for SK Telecom).

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

ive never seen plastic shatter like that. lol. not as dramatic.
Hopefully you had insurance.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
Yeah it sucks. I have insurance, but i'm guessing because the phone is so new, I made a claim but I have to fax them information and do all this extra stuff. I never had to do this when I made a claim with the TP2.
Ouch, I'm known to do that sometimes leave me phone on my lap and get up out the car. Luckily I normally have some full body protection and a screen guard on my phone.
Looks like it still works though.
yeah I have a screen protector coming, will get here today (a bit too late lol). I am looking for a case, im picky when it comes to those. Not much out right now other than a limited ebay picking and the one from verizon. Which I just now found out they make in a clear color, looks like I will have one for my replacement...
I have the body glove and zagg screen, and as sad as this is to say I have actually drooped mine twice and you can't even tell. It still looks fresh outta the box. Good luck with the replacement to from what I've heard VZW is still sold out.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
sorry to say, but i dont think ur the first casualty.
also insurance ftw.
I bought the silicone cover from Verizon, I have not dropped my phone yet hopefully it protects the phone if I drop it.
Hopefully Otterbox will make one for this phone like the one for the iphone.
dropped my x10 and nothing happened. wouldn't wanna try it with my incredible now

Well i completed the claims and it already gave me a tracking number and guaranteed my replacement will be here on the 7th.
Apologies in advance if this doesn't belong here...I just received my Android figures in the mail and had to share this.

Hi, I could not ignored your cover. I just got my Desire Z yesterday and it already got a tiny scrach on it... i bought a cover before i got the device but when i installed it the screen didn't "locked" and when i tried to remove it its almost broke the phone... BTW i like how the rubberized plastic feels. (it started to twist the metal frame..) I will be happy if you could tell me what are u using.
and other general tips (maybe its not the place i don't know...) (BTW i use a chip screen protector i hope its not a problem).
thanking you in advance,
Oded
Lol, nice one dude
I am not the brightest of the lot and I must admit I only got it after visiting the thread like 4 times over a 2 day period.

I'm using a vinyl sticker from Skinit.com and your general run-of-the-mill snap-on clear case from eBay, although I'm on my second one right now. If the thing doesn't fit on perfectly, stress cracks start developing around the tabs that fit on the phone.
I'm contemplating switching over to a translucent silicone case, but the checkerboard pattern is kinda ugly.
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.

Hey!!
I had a free day from school, so I planned to make it productive. So I made this really nice phone dock for the galaxy 3. I wouldn't call it a "dock" cause that does more stuff like charging, increasing the loudness etc. Just a stand to keep the phone in an upright position.
I made it out of a pizza carton. I could have also made a charging cable input (or sth like) but due to the phone's design it was not possible. But still does the work!
Here are some pics -

Very creative . I agree to spray paint it a colour, black or white would be nice

Yeah I know, its something not to flaunt over, but i posted it so cause their wasn't one for our phone. I made two before this and both of them fail cause of the weight of the phone
I have to admire your commitment to G3! lol. this is very... special
great work mate! looks really DOable.....
Gr8 man.....guess u really love that g3 of yours....
If i had a day off from school i would have probably wasted it by sleeping the whole day..
LOLZ! Cool, and btw, I made one before
Now that you have your model ready go for a stainless steel version, Or plexi glass would rock.
Did this a while ago. You can tell I trained in networking when you see what I made it out of...
Also works for my Galaxy S2... however I need to put it upside down if I want to plug it in...

for anyone that has the flip top type case for their phone you can make that into a stand for the phone too.
just bend the lid the opposite way and use the magnetic closing flap to lock it into place, as shown in pic.

Looking on the pics from link - ordinary plastic ruins all effect, compared to... other models on photo above.
It looks like someone got an ancient-style made golden necklace with the can opened in the centre of it
My honest opinion is that it does look pretty cool.
Even though i wouldnt have it myself.
But i dunno. Just feels like its more the kinda thing you see for iphone for than s3 lol.
But any way thats only my opinion mate
