@TheXordinary That's because gingerbread OS doesn't fully utilise the 2 cores on the SGS2 unlike iOS5 which fully utilises the 2 cores on the iPhone 4S. Once ice cream sandwich OS is released for the SGS2 I'm pretty sure SGS2 will beat the 4S in benchmarks.
Free from war! The reason why your phone dont have Galaxy SII written on its back its because its the old version of the phone. The first one is just 1.0 ghz dual core processor and the one u got its a 1.2 ghz dual core processor. The first one was just a "Prototype".
Samsung Galaxy S II is better in features , but i prefer iPhone , because of its software . I find the Android laggy and not as snappy , as iPhone is .
@Scissorify Just ditched iphone after 3 years. Was crushed when apple announced it would keep the same screen size after waiting so long for the "iphone 5". :( But now I'm so happy with the galaxy s2. It's blown my expectations and can't complain about the snappiness unless I have many programs open. The next version of android will be hardware accelerated, like the iOS, so lag will soon no longer be a problem! Just hope it doesn't take at&t and samsung too long to update the galaxy s2...
@trustme789 LOL iphone 4s fail could not live up to the expectations of the galaxy s2..iphone 4s is slower, less customization no flash player so you are stuck with youtube on a 600$ phone..no fucking NFC..WTF....its ugly lack of customization so you are stuck with boxes on your screen...p.s I own the iphone 4 lmao.
lol everybody was expecting iphone 5 however an iphone 4s has came out i still think that samsung galaxy s2 is still the best phone out yet thumbs up if you agree
iPhone (ˈaɪˌfəʊn) [Click for IPA pronunciation guide]
— n trademark a type of mobile phone which includes a music player and internet browser (doesnt even hv a flash player 3.0 ... i regret buying my iphone 4 -_____-)
Can anybody talk properly anymore? 99 percent of posts are so fanboy spiced bullshit. When u grow up? I mean listen to urself. Ur only way is love or hate and same time u turn a dead eye to competitors good points which might cause u to loose good benefits. Logo/brand has slaved u. This holy war of the two camps is childish. Like boys with toys.
When iphone 5 will come out than soon will be Nexus 2 or Galaxy S3 who will again kick ass of iphone.... For me iphone will be always on the back becouse where iphone have proper bluetoof or Adobe Flash... ??? That why Android for me is more for proper users not for kids :)
The only reason people are on iphone or were on iphone is that it appeared companies favoured iphone for their apps. They do, but to a lesser and lesser extent, and the majority of users would rather have a great phone than apps they don't use.
@TheAli2500 Kids can't afford it, also what the hell? Iphone is aimed towards older people that ain't very handy with technology due to its easy approach.
Anyway, when the iphone 5 is released, the SGS 2 will still be much better.
The iphone 5 will be an ipad 2 phone... The A5 dual core is far behind the exynos in every way.
By the way, my SGS GT I9000 Gingerbread 2.3.3 is much faster than an iphone 4.
So just take a look at the comparisons on youtube between the SGS 2 and the Iphone 4 and you will see why the SGS 2 is by far the best phone available. Oh, and tegra 2... lol The motorola Xoom scoring 1300 while the SGS 2 scores ~3500...
@Gellande yah but they made 4 iphone models alrdy and r comin out wth 4s in a few days... and the display beats any android's. ppl hate on the iphone but rly its more simple, way better, more fun, more of a responsive touch screen. smaller, thinner...
Well, its only your opinion, size matter is dependable upon person. You may like iphone size, some like it bigger or some like even smaller(Xperia mini).
Retina display doesnt beat any Android screen, why? it has better resolution, but Samoled has for example better blacks.
@McNettee i've used both galaxy s2 and iphone 4 (not 4s yet obviously) and i can tell you that s2 beats ip4 hands down, no-one beats super amoled plus. the ios is simple, yes but it's too simple you can't even customize it. it's not way better for smartphone fanatics like me. i tend to tune my phone into something else other than a phone... i.e. remote controller for pc/laptop and other electronic devices, handy for ppt presentations. more responsive than dual-core? no. s2 is also much thinner.
@Gellande yea me too not in fact ,yep i agree with you got it yesterday loving everything about it so far i think i will get a s3 when it comes out too,no more apples for me!
@Gellande same. im planning either the s2 or waiting for s3. but i know the s3 will just rape everyother phone when it comes out. i just hope it has non plastic materials not that thats bad.
pardon?
