Samsung Galaxy S2 user reviews

c-oops 19 May 2011

Good: Not really sure as had to send two back to Three

Bad: Absolutely will not connect to my home WIFI

Comment: Have sent it back for the above simple reason. It will not connect to my home WIFI. It recognises the Orange Livebox, says it has excellent signal strength but when connecting gioes through a weird sequence of searching, connecting then disconnecting. Have retyped the WIFI password in over 40 times. Even copy and pasted from my iphone so I know its correct but to no avail.
Anyone got any advice about this?

Good: Screen, android Market, design

Bad: Nothing as of yet

Comment: I bought this phone yesterday as the iPhone I did own was boring me... No flash, no widgets and the horrible old antenna issue. I am delighted with the S2, and in my opinion, the functionality of this phone is light years ahead of the iPhone 4.

Good: Good hd recording, huge ram, android 2.3

Bad: Poor flimsy housing, expensive, not qhd screen

Comment: This phone would ace it if it had a qhd screen like htc sensation.

Im no big fan of screens, but it helps to have qhd high-res screen esp. For media viewing.

Also the flimsy back cover is a turn off, like its something from a toy store, and not a high tech gadget. Also, the icons are Sesame Street-esque, and quite elementary in looks, literally. The shape is cute, but looks too iphone 4-ish. The LED must be too expensive, coz samsung put just one not 2 LEDs, even though this phone is huge.

Good: Love the Screen, Speed, Thinness and the Samsung's/Android pre-loaded Apps are actually quite good.

Bad: The back cover is insanely thin.

Comment: The back cover is really really thin, be careful and I'm scared of breaking it off. Not the most high-tech way of getting to your battery but one reason why it's so thin (you basically put your nail in a small slot and PULL). Taking pictures can be tricky because the phone is very thin, its like trying to hold a CD sideways and push the touch screen button.

I love the screen, not as sharp as the iPhone4 but oh so beautiful, and colour rich. Speed...it's super quick. The Samsung Apps are not bad and are designed for the OLED screen I guess (Everything is black and green basically- which I like). The Android Market has improved vastly from the last time I check and as long as you’re using common sense you shouldn't have problems with it.
The phone is well built, very solid and very light. I could say, "too thin" as taking pictures can be a bit tricky with the thin phone and trying to push the snap button on screen. Or my old phone and wallet use to sit secure in my pocket but with this new phone it's bouncing everywhere...I just need to gain weight or buy new jeans.

Kirs Air thing - impressive and quick. I so far love everything on this phone, even the voice command Vlingo pre-loaded by Samsung is really good and just really really cool.
This is my first Android phone- the learning curve is steep but its well worth it. I keep getting surprises from it and it's just pure awesomeness.

Comment: The phone is unbelievable thin and light weight. Apart from that the processor is super fast. With 8 mega pixel camera, reliable software and all the latest features this phone is one the best in the market at present. Full marks from me.

Good: the features in the phone are awesome..it is user friendly and looks great..a very thin touch phone

Bad: the battery is not as expected from samsung galaxy S II and the worst part is my phone's charger dropped out just after couple of weeks of purchase..the only negativity i observed in the smart phone

Comment: over all a good phone just make sure u check the charger before purchase (twist and turn the wire and then connect it for charging)...!!!
