My dad has this phone, he says it's a brilliant phone and I can see why! My current phone Nokia C6 is like totally INSANE! It's touch ain't working, they keyboard has gone wrong and everything. So, I was actually thinking of buying the Galaxy Nexus that's coming out next month.... but considering the fact that my Phone is not working anymore, I thought of buying this one this month, cause it's tough to live without the phone for me. So, I wanted some expert advice, what would you suggest I do?:D

@Darkorbitagi Hi. Well both phones are excellent. I have had my Nexus for 4 months now and it hasn't let me down. That said, my S2 never let me down. Remember the Nexus is very much about the raw Android experience. There are no skins like on the S2. And whilst the Nexus has a better screen, the S2 has a better camera. Its swings and roundabouts as to which is best. You won't be disappointed with either. In the UK, the S2 is cheaper so sometimes seems like a more viable option. Tnx

@robbiewhone Great, you will love this phone! Personally I would never flash a device because of the warranty issues etc. Obviously your call but you will really like how the phone already looks and feels. Merry christmas.

The 4s running iOS 5 will b a better phone in every way unless your some one who is after a bigger screen, but it has a lower resolution that the iPhone 4/4s

@IrishAssassin83 Perhaps you are right. I will look forward to getting my hands on one.

@alexrocks03 Hi thanks a lot for your comment. the S2 in my opinion has a slight edge to the 4s. Mainly due to more powerful processor and better GPU. Samsung do provide the Kies software for data transfer. I however found this awful and a nightmare to use. I just used windows media player which is fine. You should have a look at the HTC Sensation XE. I have it at the moment and I really like it! Much better for music with the built in beats audio. Cheers

@IrishAssassin83 actually, the sgs2 won in almost every tests, like browser, camera, speed and gaming. look some videos on youtube. sgs2 vs iphone 4s. im not saying the iphone 4s is bad, just saying its a bit faster. but i agree sgs2 has a lower resolution but the screen is amazing when you have it in your hands!

Great review, enjoyed watching it and I must say an informative unbiased opinion.

The one thing everyone states re the S2 is the display and having seen and used one up close I must say I am impressed.

Just waiting to see what ICS and Android 4.0 has to offer in the Google Nexus phone. But I still believe as you stated that the S2 will be future proofed for sometime still.
