Default Who else here left their G2x for this phone?

I did, just wondering what screen looks better to you?

I think the G2x is a little more vivid with the colors it seems like, this phone does not seem very bright in comparison and outdoor viewing is not totally bad but better on the LG. screen size tho is a great trade off lol.

what do you think?

I think you may have gotten a bad galaxy s 2 if you think the colors on a LCD are more vivid than a s-amoled + screen

Just my 2¢.

I agree, when outside if I crank my brightness to max this display is beautiful.

it doesn't even need to be in the max

60% is enough to make it very crispy and easily readable under direct sunlight

main reason why i would never buy another cell phone without SAMOLED+ display

I got rid of my G2x for this and I think the SGS2 has a faaaarr better screen. Haven't had a chance to use it outside much, but when I have, the brightness was fine.

ill be a hair more specific here, say looking at facebook, a white background, seems grayish dulled out, and on the G2x its like bright white, otherwise its pretty bright, it just seems as if the whites are grayish a tad, like 10-15% gray if that makes anysense?

Turn the auto brightness off and set the brightness to 35-50%.

Been out to play with it - going to get mine from amazon on the 19th if sammy's press conference doesnt pan out to a "nexus galaxy"
Miss my 3g Vibrant SOOOO much, loved the hell out of that screen - till an errant drop cracked the heck out of it, and i was left with this rebooting, GPS loosing, freezing POS.
(vibrant had plenty o' problems, but the grass is always greener isnt it.)
