Default Bye guys... Got me a galaxy S2, very impressed. Wow

My X10, Crapped out on me a few days ago. I've wanted the galaxy S2 for a long time, so I made a deal with my career. and I couldn't be happier.
The speed and screen resolution on this thing is amazing on this phone.

Even the little things that Samsung thought about: Task manager, file manager, the fact that you can add a pattern lock and don't have to slide to unlock, the music controls in the notifications, the voice call controls in the notifications, the timer/stopwatch included in the clock, the neat graphics when you cut-n-paste is cool and even the magnifier when selecting text. This really shows Samsung's attention to detail. Now I see why this phone is so popular.

And thank god no more timescape bloat ware.

Sorry but Sony has a lot to catch-up to. I don't think even their Sony S will be on par with the S2

Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - stock (ROGERS ROM)
Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE - Screen smashed started peeling off
SE Xperia X10 - stoped charing the battery and when I'd put a new one it would drain it and shut-off
HTC Diamond - (started to die on me and battery would barely hold a charge).
HTC Touch (Elfin) - Screen broke (went all white).

Sorry to say this bud, I still love my x10.. No matter which phone I m going to buy next I would always love my x10 cos I have learned so much stuff from my x10.

U comparing S2 to our old x10 tells me that x10 is and will be a great phone that you even thought abt comparing our x10 with ur awesome s2.:) lol

Think again bud with this old so called crap phone cab still run Xperia S widgets and still feels good.

Sorry to disappoint you peace.

There is no comparison between the X10 and the S2(it's a beast). But the X10 was my last Android phone....

Guys have either of you tried or played with a Galaxy S2? If not you have to try it just the speed and fludeness of the thing is impressive.

And I'm not just referring to the hardware, it's also all the things I listed above, that Samsung has thought about that Sony for some reason didn't.

well,
Samsung will be ahead everytime of sony giving great specs and hardware with lots of features.

Sony will always try to give you the feel of a phone with its innovative designs and features.
I mean my x10 has survived so much in rain, it falls off frequently(very hard) and still not a scratch on its screen. I can bet S2 cant survive those falls.
I know some users like phones slim and light but I personally like them strong,sturdy and good design(which Sony/SE offers).

For me surely whenever my next phone will be it will be sony

Sony puts out amazing phones, but they are always behind when it comes to the latest version of android. I cant lie though Sony phones are original and sexy.

Just one tip for u
Whenever water goes into phone take battery out ASAP
Its the battery which does damage to hardware
keep it in rice bag for 2 days and then turn phone on and hope much isn't damaged
