well........im sory if i had offended you guys about my reviews on the sgsII, but wat im trying to say is jz dat i had actualy expected much more from sgs2....im nt trying to critisize sgs2 but i expected it to b at least on par wif the a5 chip...............sgs2 was previously dubbed as the 'most powerful phone in the world' when it was released and definitely i would had expected much more from sgs2, but it was released wif a tegra2 instead of other more powerful chips(mind you that tegra2 was released ages ago), and we had seen tegra2 getting pwned by other competing chips so badly.......

n mind u, the a5 was released months ago in the form of ipad2 and i5 wil use exactly the same thing as that, n dis gives samsung a few months of head start to catch up on a5........n u shuld nt compare sgs2 wif i4 since they r both diffrent generations, instead the previous sgs1 was much more powerful than i4.....

i am a huge fan of galaxy s n the reason why i skipped buying lg optimus 2x which is the first dual core phone is becos i wanted to wait for sgs2 n i expected much more frm sgs2 .......but instead the oni diffrence nw between sgs2 n optimus 2x is the SAMOLED screen n 1gb of ram........

n theres oni curently few types of chips..... ..powervr(ipad2 n, i5) > adreno(htc phones) > tegra2(optimus2x, sgs2)> mali(sgs2 exynos version)........cn u imagine the disapointment of seeing the much hyped and awaited "most powerful phone" sgs2 comes wif the lousiest chip........after waiting for so long.......

long gone the days of galaxy s phones being the "most powerful phone"............

i am nt trying to condemn sgs2 or create trouble here......nor am i a fan of iphones .......i am just very disapointed that sgs2 didnt live up to its expectations,  i dun mind spending a few hundred bucks more for a much powerful sgs2 using other chips instead of tegra2.......

haha we dont go buy smartphone by advertisement of most powerful SP in the world but overall user experience is most important just like previously, iphone sell so many cuz of the unmatchable user experience. nowadays, other rivals just pick up so fast so really give iphone a run for its money. like many users here already testify that the over user exp of the GS2 is magnificent just u just need to go by that. hving the best processor dun mean much if don hv the streamline OS to go with, smoothness of applications that work harmoniously together and ontop of if u dun like the design, the weight, the limitations such as drop signal, low battery, soft ringtones, weak voice call, high inflexibility of transfering, too high a price, and myb exclusivity for some...proc alone dont go far, and its no coincidence that GS2 excel in all that. for me, a dual core is more than tempting than dessert! lol no one imagine a samrtphone can hv dual cores today haha

besides, having the highest end proc not necessarily mean that SP can fuly utilise the raw horsepower. the tech chase is faster than the actual need so what u really need in dual core is already more than enuf ur daily use n more. about sgs2 didnt live up to ur expectation? did u read reviews? most real owner experience? if GS2 doesnt meet ur 'expectation' i seriously dono what else could because GS2 is not the most powerful SP but indeed the best SP out there in the market n quite likely be for a long time cuz ter using ter is newer than uptodate hardware (beside the proc ofcourse)

cheers

For those who are going to buy SGS2 from Maxis but actually prefer Digi Plan, I suggest you hold your horses.
First of all, this is merely my assumption, so don't take it too seriously or blame me if it is not happening  tongue.gif

In Facebook:
Last few weeks when people ask Digi whether will they launch SGS2, Digi just reply something like 'Sorry currently we do not have plan for it etc'
But now (I mean these 2-3days) when people ask, Digi reply 'Stay tune, we are working for it'
So it MIGHT be Digi is bringing SGS2 as well, but maybe due to Maxis exclusivity, they cannot announce anything during the exclusivity period, it's like they have to agree on certain agreement so it will not affect Maxis' business in their exclusivity period (although we still do not know how long is this period).
Digi Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/myDiGi?sk=wall&filter=1

So, for those who can wait for 2-3 weeks, I suggest you to wait and see whether Digi will announce anything or not before you purchase it from Maxis reluctantly. biggrin.gif Hope Digi don't drag until 2-3 months  doh.gif  But judging from Iphone 4 White Digi is slower than Maxis about 1 month + 1 week.
However, please remember this is purely my assumption and do not have source for this information, just a wild guess from Digi's Facebook comments.  blush.gif
