sorry folks,no SGS2 for u in this month or maybe next month too

QUOTE
Due to delay in the global launch of SGS2 the device won't be launched before June. And, its not just India but its delayed all over.

Samsung Galaxy SII is not launching on the 13th April. We have not published any advertisement in newspaper for the same. Avoid the rumor.

its not gonna spoil.

but one thing is for sure.

Samsung has clear intentions to take on the big apple.

think why they keep delaying it. sure stock problems might be an issue.

but look on another side. they want to see how well it competes with the iphone5.

and let me tell you one thing. Samsung is foolish.

all the people i know, they care about one thing and only one thing. substance. this alone samsung has none in its phone. it looks cheap, feels cheap.

sure, it is foreseeable that samsung and apple might sell just as many as one another but the point is, we dont even know what ip5 is up to, but we do know, their ipad2 has the most powerful graphics in the whole tablet industry against our soon to be outdated tegra 2, so we do have a point that ip5 mightbe a gaming powerhouse.

i meant like, just give ip5 a 4 inch screen, with dual core and the same graphics, and i tell you, samsung is ready to pack their bags. because the ifags would be jizzing all over the place.

and seriously, I would actually consider one.

but even so, we shall see which is best.
*
without those bold-ed specs, or even just a tiny upgrade from retina display to retina display 2 in iphone 5, many ifags still put a big "WOW" on it and queue up all over the apple store again... tongue.gif

btw,another "news"

Disappointed with the news of Galaxy S II getting delayed till June? Well, here’s some good news coming directly from Samsung Electronics’ official twitter account. They’ve confirmed that Galaxy S II will be released in April as planned indicating there is no delay whatsoever. Samsung also said the phone will be rolled out gradually depending on the “local launch timetable” of different countries.

So there you have it. You can expect Samsung’s powerful flagship device from later this month.

i think that's Apple's marketing gimmick.

pretend like there's no iPhone launch then do a surprise launch during WWDC for better marketing

don worry..the rumor is earlier than official announcement

based on the review, the tegra 2 seems better in gaming but in browsing or launching apps, sgs2 seems better..

there are something we need to take into account(lg optimus 2x run in froyo and lesser ram while sgs 2 running latest GB and more ram but pre-release unit with 1 ghz dual core cpu)

looks like sgs 2 will replace my SGS and gonna sell my SGS for tegra 2 powered honeycomb tablet... tongue.gif

The advantage of getting the SGS2 later than other countries in Malaysia is we can get to read reviews from people who have already bought the SGS.
Perhaps the accessories will be out along with the release, so can get the device protected from day 1.

We'll need a back cover that will absorb shock for good, or else with the thinnest back cover the SGS won't survive a fall.

amazingly, i dont get any crack or problem with my back cover with over 10 times of drop to the concrete floor..just a bit scratch thats it...

oh..then rm2170 + xx delievery charge sure way cheaper than maxis those network. but is there any disadvantages? cuz if there isn't any disadvantages, i'm sure everyone would buy it through clove.
*
thats what the fellas from australia here doing...they love to buy it from UK(clove and handtec) coz they cant wait any longer for the carrier to release it..they dont need to pay VAT and any tax/custom to import it

the only disadvantage is the warranty where they need to send it over if something happen..
im one of them that bought SGS and luckily there is no problem with my phone until now...

True true...too bad Samsung can only copy look-a-like Apple design but cannot copy Apple product punctuality. Good thing HTC don't give a fuc*k about Apple and just focus on making good phones.

so u mean samsung not making good phones too?

Don't take me too subjectively ok, please? I put more of the stress on the Apple like design from Samsung, generally they are OK but nothing exceptional and...yeah compared with HTC they are lagging pretty bad right there. Like with HTC people talk about their Sense, SE is about the camera, Samsung??? Browsing??? NFC???? TouchWiz??? Puhhhleaseeeeeee  icon_rolleyes.gif
*
seriously,if u dare to say it out then u must have a point to backup right?

not that i dont agree with u but samsung lagging pretty bad? at least Samsung has Super Amoled Plus for people to talk about..samsung has nice spec to talk about..although i dun like TW 3 from SGS but TW 4 in SGS 2 looks promising...

p/s i only comparing SGS and SGS2.not lower end phone from samsung

Apple has no case-lah...just a publicity stunt to run down on Samsung fans
and gives bullets to those Apple fans.
1) Majority of the smart phone now is candy bar-shaped. (but must read patent details!)
2) User-interface is Android...go complain to Google! TouchWiz is no where same as iOS.

No case lah...  icon_idea.gif
