Samsung Galaxy S II

Post by DropkickMurphy »

Do any of the members in the states have this phone and is it any good? Anything you specifically dislike about it....besides price? The T-Mobile version is coming out next week and my phone is up for an update.

If ur getting an android phone, then this is the one to get. This thing is pretty awesome. The only downside to it is battery life just like any other smartphone that runs one too many apps.

People always complain about battery life but I am happy to say I never had the problem on any phone. I am not a big user. Thanks for the input anyway. For me it is either get this one or wait for the Nexus Prime but that will not be out for sometime.

I have an android phone, the battery goes from 100 to 0 less than 1 day, but I rooted the phone and put CyanogenMod in it. Now it runs for 5 days or so before shutting down due to lack of power. I don't recommend this with newer and powerful phone as it can be very expensive when the hack goes wrong.

I played around with a blackberry I had about 2 years ago and almost ruined so I know better than to try that again. I don't care about battery all that much like I said above.

If your getting a smartphone like the galaxy 2 its best that you order the extended battery with it because the first battery pack that comes along with the phone is useless.
