The editors didn't like

Plastic shell (but this does make the phone very light for its size)
Design
The Samsung Galaxy S II is very thin
With a light plastic shell that weighs just 116g. It's lighter than the iPh
Expensive
Fragile back cover
Lacks premium feel
Audio can be bettered
No longer the latest Android OS
Filled with app bloatware
Menus are confused in places
Not as user-friendly as HTC and iPhone rivals
Not much unless you are really picky
Succeeds in spite of Samsung's software hubs
Not because of
Flimsy back cover
Poor keyboard layout
Samsung Apps portal
Keen photographers will miss a dedicated shutter key
Plasticky build
Flimsy backplate.
Screen not very bright and doesn't reproduce colours accurately
MHL convertor for HDMI ports not included
Still entirely plastic
Yet another iPhone clone
TouchWiz not for everybody
There's very little to dislike about the Samsung Galaxy S II. The huge screen and skinny casing can make it slightly awkward to hold
And the Android OS gets some slightly useless additions from Samsung
But both of these points are minor niggles.
Unnecessary software
Plastic chassis
Flimsy backplate
Screen may be too large for those with small hands
