Who loves their GALAXY S2?

Just wanted to make a thread to see how many people with accually answer.
The Galaxy S2 is by FAR the best android phone i have ever had,and i've had quite a few!!
AM WANT TO MAKE LITTLE SGS2 BABIES WITH THIS PHONE!!

pointless thread but agreed, this phone is the nuts!
VR + some ninpo magic makes it fly

It's my very first Android device, and at first I thought "OMG, amazing device *like*"
Now I got it for about ~2 1/2 months, and with every day I love it more
IMO this thing is as close to a complete PC as laptops are to desktops, i.e. there is just *SO* much one can do with it (esp. talking things that go way beyond just using apps )

Ita an amazing phone. Really I fall in love with my SGS2.

Its no more pointless than a moaning thread! the forum is full if moaning so all the users who are happy with the device have as much right to express it as those that have problems. I love my GS2
:-D

Unsurprisingly, Another Very Positive Review of the Note

I make no apology for posting another very positive review of the Note, because it is well written and it shows everyone, especially prospective buyers, how fantastic the Note really is.

Is the note really that bad to keep posting positive reviews about it ?

The Note is not bad at all, which is why there are so many positive reviews that should be posted to the forum to help newcomers decide whether to buy the Note or not.

I actually used some reviews from bigger sites to consider getting the note and also referred to 1 user review, none of them really covered the negatives or even atleast tried to go into that part (but I dont blame them) I dont fault samsung for this but only my self for not having enough information before purchasing, well actually the information was already presented to me before purchasing and I still took the plunge, good thing though Im getting my money back. Maybe the Galaxy S3 or Note2 can give me what I need.

@EarlZ: In your opinion yes - refund 9.02.12
So what ist the reason for such a destructive post?

Yes I'm expecting the refund cheque to arrive at Feb 9 as advised by Samsung, anything wrong ?
How is my post destructive, can you elaborate?

Ok maybe not destructive - only sarcastic

Sarcastic or destructive, care to elaborate what makes you say that? The above statement the very gist of what I got the Galaxy Note.. based on good reviews from major sites that I trust and they failed to cover some points but it was already covered here in XDA but I still took the plunge, I found it unacceptable and asked for my money back.. isnt that what everyone does if they find the product unacceptable for their needs/expectation ?
But anyway thats your personal translation of my post, just saying what those reviews got me.

if you have a problem with samsung don't troll in here almost every good post in here you are trolling...get a life...

As much as I respect your decision, I'm glad to see you go. Hopefully your next device will be perfect. I can't blame you 1 bit but you have had a negative vibe for the last couple of months. But please leave in peace.

I agree completely. Finding it weird that someone who's returned his note and hates the phone keep posting to a forum for those who use it.

Yup, the only thing he's done here for the last two month is whining in every single thread, and if he doesn't even have the Note now, i really don't know why he's wasting his energy here.
Please move to the Galaxy Nexus section (where you'll experience the same problems).

No, it's not that bad. There are a few people who returned them, but I haven't counted too many.

extremely satisfied
if the size is not an issue go for the note
The screen is the most amazing i have ever used
The screen size is a pleasure to surf or watch videos or photos
Gaming is a pleasure
I also own the hd2 with a 4.3 inch screen and the
latest ics rom ported to it
But the moment i saw the note i was deeply in love again.
I dont feel like using the hd2 anymore its screen looks so dull and outdated.
The note is the god of all phones.
Not a single reboot. Amazing speed.great 3g surfing
I just cant imagine any reason not to go fo it

I have an S2 and a Note. I thought my S2 was the best phone I've ever used until the Note. I have read all the problems people have had but for me personally I have not experienced ANY of these issues.
The S2 was originally snappier than my Note but once I upgraded to LA4 its as fast as my S2. The S2 is a great phone but as someone else stated, if size isn't an issue I would recommend the Note. I love everything about it and still marvel at it each day.

+1 with a skyrocket. I hope to sell my skyrocket to get the ATT GNote so I will have one for LTE! My wife is going to kill me... Do you think I can pass them off as the same phone? lol!

Hey guys, will you stop quoting the Fickle Filipino Troll? Messes with my ability to ignore him.

don't be racist man, I'm Filipino and I hate EarlZ's trolling too. I agree that he doesn't have to spread his dismay on every freakin' thread.

I have att S2 and waiting for the Note. Been reading tons of great reviews, no one mentions to the cons. Should i keep believing they all great?

More BS from BGR

http://www.bgr.com/2012/02/13/samsungs-galaxy-note-is-the-most-useless-phone-ive-seen/
In case you don't want to reward BGR with page views, here's the summation:
The phone is too big. You will look stupid talking on it, people will laugh at you, and you’ll be unhappy if you buy it. I really can’t get around this, unfortunately, because Samsung pushed things way too far this time.

Wow, he has a serious stick up his bum regarding the Note. I wonder if one of the smaller phones in orbit around it fell out of orbit and hit him in the head.
Everybody's entitled to their own opinion, but that was ridiculous.

Well.. Its allways a matter of taste and nothing to care about if you dont like it...
I know alot people wanting to get the note, so there is a market and a big demand for beasty phones like the note.

That site sucks so bad!! I can't believe anyone even goes there anymore..

Who could even care about such an opinion, being the fact that so many people wants that Note, including me, but off course I'm holding back because of the price that here in country rounds US$900.oo so is a little off my league right now! lol

As above, everyone is entitled to an opinion. All i can say is that the two people in my office that made fun of the note before i got it now want one, and my wife is asking for one instead of iphone 4S (she has iphone, ipad, and macbook air). Maybe BGR has small apendages...

hahahaha, he's just afraid his GF will prefer holding the 'big' Note instead of his 'tiny' manhood
Sorry mate but you are a real no-go compared to OUR stylus

An article about the Note that affirms that you'll look stupid and people will laugh at you when you hold it is just stupid. The writer's lack of arguments led him to write such a nonsense in a news site. Come on.

This is a review, and as such belongs in the review sticky. I have copied the first post to that thread.​

Living with the Galaxy Note: Thoughts After 5 Days

Friends,
I thought I should share this review video I came across. I have gone through so many galaxy note reviews, but this has been straight up the best. Really feel connected, and I think a lot of the galaxy note current users who love the phone would connect with the review a lot.. and those who are still thinking of buying a Note, definitely check it out.

Excellent review but you should have posted it in the review thread, I can smell the Ganja...

Interesting. I've come to the stage with the SGS2 where I need to gift it to my partner & get a new phone, it being a bit small now it seems to me. I've wondered about the SGS3 but that may not be a lot bigger, 4.65 rumor? So bottom line, the Note is really OK for everyday use?

the Note is supreme, the one to rule them all...The only thing I can see missing is IR port, so it could be used as a TV remote, then it would have been the complete phone..the ultimate..
Ericsson P800 had everything, it was supreme...crappy screen and touch function, but not far from the best.

That's amazing! I congratulate you on your great luck!

Same opinion, this Note is great.
So great that my Archos Tablet is lying on my table and I nearly don't use it anymore

A great review, and he's very entertaining! I agree with him about the size and power of the note making it more than a phone. Any future upgrade will have to be to something very similar to my note.

Great video. I think alot of people thought the same way when they first take a look at it.
Its funny how normal the note is once you get use to it. You only really notice how big it is when you use another device.

Great review couldn't have said it better myself!

Yeah i'm subbed to that guy....great vids! And yes....the Note is the BEST!

It is an awesome phone. I've had mine for about a month mine. Switched from an iPhone 4S. Took me a while to get accustomed but after trying multiple roms and kernels, I now don't think I'd go back to the 4S.

mine arrived yesterday, and its a great device, other than I am still wiping drool from it..

Love his quote: "iPhone, BE GONE!"

Seems to me as though the OP was merely conveying his appreciation to people who had helped him in the play forums.
You on the other hand are flaming. How about being a bit more respectful.

I have the Samsung Galaxy SIII, but as much as I like that phone I am still keeping my play for the fact it`s still my favorite as a gaming device.
Not sure why other users don`t choose to have the best of both worlds too?

this was to show my appreciation from the users in the play forums and used the sgs3 for few days fast smooth and everything else but the play had the x factor because of the hardware buttons and everything else Keeping the play but wont be used as much as it has no sim now
