Thanks for the link, nice review. Waiting for my device to be shipped in a week's time

Yep. Nice Review. I just hope Samsung starts to ramp up production of these babies to send to the US already.

Awesome Review!! Cant wait for this phone!

it's 1am in Sydney and I've stayed up and read the review, now I can't sleep because I keep thinking about the gs2, just a week or two that's all I have to wait, anyone want to buy a second hand ip4 lol

its funny that one of the comments claims that the iphone 5 will be much better than the sgs 2...
sgs 1 even beats iphone 4 hands down and the diffrences between ip5 and ip4 is most likely just another camera

read up on some rumors - iP5 will be thinner, slightly bigger edge-to-edge screen, dual core CPU, and I am sure a bunch of other cutting edge features. Apple is a respected power, can't deny that.

Nice review, thanks for the link!
Still, nothing more than a dedicated blogger could do - Where are the measurements?

• Wifi: maximum range and throughput over range
• Cell radio: quality of GSM / UMTS reception in known good and known bad spots
• GPS: TtFF cold and hot, accuracy over time, both stationary and moving; comparison to a reference standalone GPS, ...
• Audio: freq response, noise floor, harmonic and non-harmonic distortion, stereo crosstalk etc.
• Screen: brightness (min and max), contrast, color accuracy
• Camera: see any decent digicam review (but they did have full-res shots, yay!)

I'm not saying build a testing lab, but once upon a time the difference between an amateur review and a professional one used to be the testing equipment and methodology employed.

Thinner, I don't know, it's gotten a bit ridiculous by now. The phones are getting hard to hold as it is. Same for edge-to-edge - where am I supposed to hold the thing? Even with current gen phones I manage to obscure the screen or even trigger something with my hand.
So I think we're golden!

Great review, cant wait!! Its also funny how the mention they havnt been this excited since the HTC Desire, which is the phone I'm about to replace with the GS II haha. I guess I have a good knowledge of smartphone's since its a big hobby of mine

Don't get me wrong - I love my desire but I think its a bit overrated by the techradar guys=)
