Samsung Galaxy S2

Samsung Galaxy S2 ($899)


It's been a week since Ric bought the latest Samsung Galaxy SII in replacement of my bulky Samsung Galaxy Tab; i was sad to part with Tab big screen convenience but welcome my new freedom without having to lug a little notebook everywhere i go, even to the supermarket!

Galaxy S2 battery life was only half of what i used to enjoy on Tab though; S2 needs charging up every alternate days even after installing the Automatic Task Killer Apps, Tab survives me over span of 3-4 days!

As i was used to the Tab Android interface, switching to the smartphone was a breeze. In fact, it was smarter with its phone options and settings compared to the tablet. Option of making the switch from Android to Apple IPhone OS was aborted after much consideration.

I love this phone. But was so afraid i might drop it as my small palm couldn't stretch and hold its broad 66.10mm width securely. The weight of 116g was so light that i sometimes jolted, forgetting the phone was in my pocket all this time :P

Though it could have been a white cased Galaxy SII, we were advised against the purchase as the white color coating stains after a period of usage.
