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

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.

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 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

See my nationality first, buddy!!

Samsung Galaxy S2 is good but screen's durability is the problem as a lot of users started reporting in Korea....
I really don't like Samsung's plastic body even light because of that and, design (Samsung has no design at all) compare to Sony and HTC.

If new ?
Product made in China also good.... Samsung is in alert because of China, not because of HTC or Sony...

Really want to know for hardware built quality ? Should see after 1~2 years like cars...

Design...
Well, Samsung has no design at all compare to Sony and HTC....
For me, HTC is the best, very solid, friendly to developers + well developed fast Sense UI (TW is sucks!)..

I bricked 8 phones until now during heavily flashing custom roms, 7 units were Samsung....
Even one day, flashing several different roms to test for each unit but only Samsung's phone cannot stand this stress until cannot power on !!as my continue re-booting test So now, I am scare to flash several roms per day to test and comparison for Samsung devices.

Even stock rom,
Lots of users claim for screen.... mostly some part of touch screen's sensor stops working..

No matter what, design of Apple, no one can beat.... integration and stability of iOS software, no need to mention...
In Android ? We have Sony who not only focus of hardware quality but for unique UI (Timescape), too.

Nowadays... handphone is almost same price with Notebook (for me, still cannot accept, that's why I never bought new one in my life, if need to buy Samsung 2ndhand, alway buy units which still under warantee remained...) so I need something more than only PERFORMANCE, like HTC and Sony...

Well, my personal opinion for FUN only ~~

have you seen this video, the S2 seems very sturdy:

But I do have to admit my X10 fell a lot of times and no damage to the screen(that was impressive)

Who uses TimeScape?! It's just bloatware.
And I'm not talking about putting different ROMS. I'm purely speaking from a stock point of view. Samsung has done a better job thinking about all the little things vs Sony.

Many people uses it mate, jusy some don't like, but it makes the difference. Samsung UI sucks, extremely ugly to almost users, of course I don't think you hate it lol
