The Samsung Galaxy S II features one of the best screens available on a smartphone. At 4.2 inches
It's large enough to consume media content with ease
And it's also pin-sharp. Samsung has used AMOLED technology to produce stunning colour reproduction
With vivid hues and deep blacks on offer. The Galaxy S II is also the fastest smartphone we've had the pleasure of using
With the Gingerbread ve

The editors didn't like
Slightly reduced battery life (improved with firmware updates)
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

Flimsy back cover, Poor keyboard layout, Samsung Apps portal
And so we come to the end of our epic Samsung Galaxy S2 review – and we know some of you might have jumped straight here to see what we think. However, if you're considering purchasing this phone, we recommend you take a look through our review, as there'...
Great performance. Solid battery life. Great 4G speeds, when in coverage. Good 8-megapixel camera
Slightly thicker and heavier than the Galaxy S II. Larger screen needs a higher resolution. Older version of Android
The Galaxy S II 4G represents the best of last year's technology. It's fast, in more ways than one, and battery life is good. But when you're paying full price, don't you want the latest and greatest?...
Limited 4G coverage, Screen resolution outdated, Thicker, heavier than 3G model

Abstract: Let me start by saying… what a relief!When I upgraded from my HTC Desire HD to the Samsung Galaxy S2, I had no idea how much of an upgrade I was really getting. Sure, I knew the specs for these bad boys, but it's only now I own one that I fully understand...
The Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket has a beautiful 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display along with a dual-core 1.5GHz processor, an NFC chip, and support for AT&T's LTE network. It ships with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, and has an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p
AT&T's LTE network is only available in a few cities at the time of the Skyrocket's launch, it has a somewhat cheap, plastic feel, and you can't remove bloatware
If you live in an area that gets AT&T's LTE network, we highly recommend the powerful and beautiful Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket....
