I picked the GS2. I would highly suggest it. Battery lasts all day and I honestly don't notice the resolution...videos and games look great unless the games are old, then they'll look pixely.
@AllenKevorkov >_> How? did you put a rom on it? I didn't know you could do that. Isn't it only an artificial change? Does it make apps and stuff look better?
@Degu1 Well, it kinda has to be artificial change since native is 800x480, but at 1200x720 it looks as good an original setup. There's an app called LCD resolution that allows you to change it. The only downside is that touchwiz doesn't like it, so you'd need to download replacement for some stock apps. Dialer looks smaller at that resolution, music player doesn't launch, and calendar looks weird, so if you can replace these apps with free alternatives from the market, you'll be in good shape.
@AllenKevorkov I would love to see a video! And ok thanks for the tips. I had heard of this being an option in some roms but had no idea there was an app for it! I'll try it out but probably not stick with it because I kinda like touchwiz and after switching phones/roms so much I'm glad to finally have a phone I can just leave the way it is and not have to lose my app data and redownload apps constantly
Which will it be now??? Neither lol..... I'm waiting out for a Super AMOLED 1280x720 phone with 16gb internal and must have an external memory card slot. Preferably with an Exynos processor please... The SkOrPn JIG!
