[BankHeistMusik]

@booredatwork do you know if the Galaxy S2 faster than the G2x?

[Marcoshary]

Hi. Nice review! This is a 4G phone right, so I´d like to ask you: I don´t have 4g in my region yet. We can use it 2G and 3g, no problem right? And will be able to use 4g when it´ll be available? Thanks.

[sinistar908]

[TheSupaDusty]

this phone seems really great. i don't mind the battery since i don't use 4G. but the little things makes me uncomfortable. there's no LED notification and you can't uninstall the bloatware. no wifi calling YET. really tmobile?

[TheSupaDusty]

[fromrazorstorosaries]

I can't WAIT to get this phone........ Also, nice Ichigo wallpaper dude. ^_^

[ericmunoz321]

This phone has dissapointed me... I picked up one from tmobile snd when i started to use it, it was crap.... It takes forever to just load the internet browser, takes forever to download a single app, and on top of that, it wont even load a single youtube video!!!

[booredatwork]

@ericmunoz321 it shouldn't do that, ask tmobile for a replacement

[Yongmoneyz1]

What if we don't have 4G here ... ? How fast is it then..

[h0opman]

how do you transfer music and pics from pc to the phone and vice versa?

[soleil3gs]

I'm on 23 hours with 25% left of battery life with medium to heavy usage.

[larrycom]

Very good review. I wonder if there will be an upgrade in future OS updates to include notifications?

[bobbyj2384]

@YOBLACKHOMIE1 would go with the galaxy S2. I had the sensation and I ended up switching back to my G2. I wasn't impressed at all. I'm not saying its a bad phone, but I was expecting more. But go with the one that suits you best...

[panzaratti]

yo, i coulda sworn this guy was meek mill for a minute

[YOBLACKHOMIE1]

i like this phone but i really want the sensation or htc amaze because i like the feel of htc but i want the galaxy for the battery life help me out here!

[zoeysboy]

I just got the same phone in Canada (the company is called Telus). T-mo and Telus just released the exact same phones. However my phone has only 5 home screens. Same version of gingerbread. Any idea how to get the 7 that you have?

[zoeysboy]

@zoeysboy nvm, got it



[inuyasha561]

@zoeysboy you should be able to add or take away screen...

[Djjshbs]

This or sensation ahhh

[booredatwork]

@Djjshbs SG2

[onyxjr17]

can i still be able to update its firmware if i unlocked it?

[zamrock20]

lol the internet on your phone is like 30x the speed on my computer atm.. fml

[freshboy2324]

do u pay extra for wifi sharing?

[madzkan1]

can i sim unlock this phone and use in the philippines?

[mahbul27]

The phone actually tell you in clear when someone calls or texts,but missing that led sucks this phone definitely is the best phone I had in my hands love it,the battery life for me is outstanding better then anything else on Tmobile.

[wijeratne]

Yes it works with wind!

[TehSillehBilleh]

Does this phone work on wind mobile?

[ibrarhanif]

Simple mobile works fine with tmobile locked ph

[ballpython187]

[XxAnubis360xX]

Dude nice bleach wallpaper respect! That's sick

[LAXTIMES]

[XxRebeLLyeLLxX]

@Mz5SweetThang if u call t mobile they have to give it you as long as you bought it from them and you have ur current line running on it

[paimansli]

Where id you get the wallpaper for the phone ? thanks

[xxFFernandoxx]

Got this phone, I get boners every day i use it!

[Nobodji]

[booredatwork]

@Nobodji if you root it sure

[FailsOnCam]

Great video! Do you know where I can get a 4.52 inch unlocked version? I haven't found one anywhere. I'm with Simple Moblie at the moment, meaning that I have a SIM card. I don't want to pay $80 a month and chnage my number just to switch to T-Mobile.

Thanks :)

[Darkcloud1983]

[Keundre23]

Speed test...I dont even get that with my wifi....WTF LMAO

[elquesevino]

[ciscokid602]

[ThE99KiDmAn]

[kravon2315]

708, if u talk to customer loyalty dept they'll give u a good deal

[444hulkman]

Ichigoo

[hippls100]

dude is that hallow ichigo in the background?? awsome!!!!!

[KizzMeDeadly]

@booredatwork Great review. I'm debating whether to get the Amaze 4G or the Galaxy SII, an hr ago I was leaning more towards the Amaze, but after watching this I'm liking the Galaxy more. So confused. But I was wondering, is there anyway to change the look of the keyboard on the Galaxy? That's one of my pet peeves about the phone. I don't like the style and color of the virtual keyboard.

[sphogat]

@KizzMeDeadly the phone comes with 2-3 keyboards, and you can always download other keyboards =)

[RedLobster]

Good video thank you!

[kravon2315]

11 yr tmo customer, got mine for 72.26 this morning.

[708booboy]

@kravon2315 you can do that? they jus offered it to you like that?

[kravon2315]

Cj, exynos didn't support tmo 42 mbps , only 21. Qualcomm supports 42

[BboyDcyple]

Bleach!!!!!!!!!!!!

<3

[cjdavis0130]

Why did samsung decide to go with the qualcomm processor for the tmobile version instead of the exynos processor?

[dudeimgeorge]

random question, does rooting phones on Tmobile AND Verizon assist in free tethering and hotspotting? I need to know because im looking to jump ship to another provider based on unlimited plan. thanks in advance!!!

[MOTH477]

Great review. On the t-mobile version can you adjust brightness by swiping across th top of the screen? Also can you move the cursor by tapping the side of the phone?

[EdMFace]

Can I change the lock screen wallpaper!!??

[teptepswag]

Good Review Sir! Keep it up!

Wait so how long is battery Life? Good bAd? What if you connect 3G/4G all day long ?

[booredatwork]

@teptepswag battery life is about 10hrs, if you use power control and turn down brightness you an get up to 12

[lucd45]

Do you think this is an overall better phone than the tmoble g2

[dudeimgeorge]

hotspot/tethering, I am a nexus user, always had free hotspot/tethering? is this free??

[shinzantetsu]

@dudeimgeorge

not sure,but if its not...id root it.

[Awesome7234]

how many hours of battery life does it typically get?

[ieeshababy]

NO WIFI CALLING!!!! THAT SUCKS MAJOR ASS!!!

[joeln0671]

can't use Google talk for video?????  that's lame!!

[aqualadb03]

@booredatwork are you a bleach fan? What about naruto?

[kravon2315]

I wanna see if its as smooth as the exynos

[kravon2315]

Hey boored, can u make a quick video of embedded 720 or 1080p flash video in the browser? That's a deal breaker for me

[soleil3gs]

@booredatwork ok thanks

[FennecPhillies]

I heard that the SII doesn't support WIFI is it true ?

[booredatwork]

@FennecPhillies it has wifi

[HRodMusic]

@FennecPhillies i think they are just rumors, i really hope they are.

[theshiznut]

I see you like bleach. :)

[soleil3gs]

No browser test? BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[booredatwork]

@soleil3gs its coming in the versus tomorrow

[booredatwork]

@soleil3gs video is up for versus, browser test in there

[soleil3gs]

Wow, the data speeds are very impressive.

[Xerxes02]

Very Impressed by those data speeds

[snoyl8]

at 8:29 how come it only says you have 784 MB of RAM but they say it comes with 1 GB?

[booredatwork]

@snoyl8 I beleieve some is dedicated to the OS

[mh646]

Could you do some web browsing for us please.?

[booredatwork]

@mh646 ok will do it in my comparison

[lanceealy]

horrible review

[Slaggyb]

most of your time was spent scrolling through the home screen no web browser test....

[booredatwork]

@Slaggyb the browsewr is the same

[11m0]

Whats the battery life like in comparison to the others are we talking a 30min to 2 hour difference

[booredatwork]

10hr battery life, about a 2hr difference from the others

[centfla]

@booredatwork What type of use is that? Lots of browsing, texting, and running apps?

[11m0]

Where can I get that sick bleach wallpaper?

[Colin12011]

You should consider redoing the benchmark test with no apps running in the background, and that power saving feature might also be hindering the performance

[booredatwork]

@Colin12011 does help 3127 is the new quadrant score with apps cleared and power savings off

[ygswagg111]

Agree witn @yellowgroove

[pranckstyr]

The battery should last at least 12hrs. The review shows gps and other applications running all at once.

[booredatwork]

Offical word from T-Mobile on Wi-Fi calling "

The feature will not be available at launch, but will be provided at a later time via software update."

[ygswagg111]

Lmaoooo @ tmo.galaxy s II.is a fail.no.gtalk.with video and.no exynos chip makor fail its 2.3.5 so wat galaxy s II.epic touch

[BIGGSiPhone]

@booredatwork would u recomnend this phone over the HTC sensation?

[booredatwork]

@BIGGSiPhone this

[lrobles787]

We live in the same town.

[lrobles787]

Gtalk video chat properly they later going to send an update for that.

[lilfreshboy100]

that doesnt sound to bad tho im waiting for it to come out i really like this phone how would you rate it against the other galaxy s2's?

[lilfreshboy100]

About how long does the battery last with moderate use ? And is the phone glitchy or slow down at all to where its noticeable ?

[booredatwork]

@lilfreshboy100 got about 8-10hrs on moderate use, and the slow downs are not that noticeable more or a blip than slow down, and won't be a bother. that was more of a comparison to the other SgII us variant.

[yellowgroove]

What i hate is you buy the latest and greatest phone, spend a small fortune and 3 weeks later, out comes a new phone that makes yours obsolete... makes me mad and it makes me wonder if its all done on purpose to get all our money.

[proteanview]

@yellowgroove Yep. Samsung & HTC will announce a flagship device and, just before it's released, they release info of a better device coming in a month... and repeat. You can never have a flagship device. Sensation, Sensation XE, Sensation XL, Amaze... Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note, Nexus Prime. Folks love iPhone because they know they'll have the best of Apple for a year. Samsung & HTC will never realize the full sales potential of any device. They just create buyer's remorse.

[deltaboy2011]

@yellowgroove This is where you need to decide if the phone you get is enough for your needs and wants. Or otherwise you just showing off having the newest phone than everybody else. 

[MarkC538]

@yellowgroove That's the way the world is today and they keep doing it b/c they know people will keep buying.

I you want a phone that future proof then buy an iphone and this is coming from an android user.

[swervfusion]

@yellowgroove my current phone (I use it as a phone book now) is a motorola razr. Tell me, is now a good time to buy because I've been waiting a really long time for a touchscreen phone :-)

[yellowgroove]

@swervfusion my dad uses the moto Razr still, it depends on what you want, the touch screens and new smart phones use a ton of battey power you will be charging a lot, if you just want a basic phone with touch, i suggest you do google searches as i don't know if you are brand loyal...

[kyley808]

Does it have wifi calling

[booredatwork]

@kyley808 thanks for the question. I always take that for granted now on T-Mobile devices but I can't find it. Just sent T-Mobile a message to confirm if it is on the system or not
