Samsung Galaxy S II Questions & Answers

Thoughts on the new Galaxy S II

Posted by monkeybone on Feb 14, 2011

Well, the rabbit is out of the hat and here is the new Galaxy S II. Is it me or this thing looks a lot like a certain phone made by Apple :), although it has better specs across the board.

Like the first Galaxy S, this one is with iPhone-like design, too. That's not bad, but somewhat it doesn't have its own identity.

I see nothing bad in the stolen iPhone design :D After all, if we have to be pedants, a lot of manufacturers stеаl, not only design from others, but this is the market game :)

If we have to be honest, a lot of models look like each other, so design is not a problem. The important think is, whether Samsung made SGS II more superior to SGS I...I mean not hardware but performance and removed problems...

Doesn't really look like iPhone, in my humble opinion. Which parts of the design remind you of an iPhone?

To me the front remind me a lot of the iPhone 3G/3GS, the only difference being the back button. Even the frame size and proximity sensor are the same.

If the Home button was circle, I can definitely mistake it with the iPhone 4

I'm not surprised about the design, which in general is pretty similar on most touch phones, as for the hardware this thing rocks ;)

A good update to an already great device. Nice!

I had the chance to check it out. Definitely an improvement over the previous model with better design (the cheap glossy plastic is replaced with one with great grip) and features - better display, dual-core processor and better interface. Considering the rivals, it is the best Android phone for me, with the Optimus 2X right after it. The Optimus 3D is huge for being 3D and the new HTC phones are so 2010.
