QUOTE(benzourry @ Sep 2 2011, 11:37 AM) Wanna share something..while we are quite bz with our shiny sgs2 and bz comparing it with htc, lg. No HDMI/tv-out, no OTG, no front facing camera. Meh.another droid monster is here, not a rip-off but a new innovation from China.. with the price of... $310 The Spec of XIAOMI MI ONE Hardware: - Unlocked bootloader! - Android 2.3.5 pre-loaded (MIUI ROM) - Sharp capacitive 4 inch screen at 480 x 854 res 16:9 - Dual-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S3 (MSM8260) - 4GB ROM - 1GB RAM - Up to 32GB Micro-SD card support - 8MP Rear Camera - Noise-cancelling microphone - 1930mAH battery! +30% on standard 1500mAH - GPS (U.S. GPS and Russian GLONASS;) - Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) and Bluetooth connectivity - 266MHz Adreno220 GPU - 125 * 63 * 11.9 (mm) - GSM / WCDMA bands Other specs: - x3 Capacitive touch buttons (Menu, Desktop, Back key) - Side USB (micro) port - Volume button (side) - Powerbutton (side) - MI-Button (Customisable button for application of your choice) - 149g weight Accessories: - Interchangable back covers in variety of different colours. (currently 7 with more to follow) - Other “MI” Accessories to be launched such as phone stand. Price set at ￥1999 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY_Pjdi9jA0  GalNote? Huge and slim? I can barely type with one hand with the SGS2 and you want me to do it on a 5 incher? No. Ditto the SGS2LTE. Would rather wait for the Nexus Prime and see if they improve SQ (on the HW side, like a better DAC). Super AMOLED+ HD is also something awesome to wait for, as is the proported PowerVR graphics. As long as it has a LOGICAL screen size. Anything above 4.5 is stretching it for me. This post has been edited by Eiraku: Sep 2 2011, 01:27 PM |

Hi beloved SGS II users, i bet all of us love our phone here yeah?
i hav a question btw, i feel tat my home button is abit faulty, because at times when i only want to exit my app pressing the home button, it will lead me to VOICE TALK NAVIGATION, which is also means by it recognizes of single home click as double home click, it does not act like tat all the time but u know IT does at times, which is very annoying, i feel tat the spring inside isnt very solid like my dads or frens SII, anyone know wad i can do about it? bring it for repair or something? if yes, where can i go? : ( |

QUOTE(destEX @ Sep 2 2011, 01:31 PM) using MIUI worh xD That's exactly how I reacted to those peeps. I've heard not only from one person, but a few. Saying that, when you flip (I don't know what you called that movement when you use your fingers to flip through different pages), it'll hang there, and then few seconds later it'll only run smooth. So I assume that should be called - lag. LOLgo find samsung, hardware prob Who the fark told u that? They must really hate samsung or android? is it those brainwashed zombies ifags? Dear, this phone is as smooth as tetek! So S2 is really a good phone? Any problems so far? Cons? Cuz I really need to consider all these before buying. thinking of Iphone 4 or S2. |

Oh great. Then I feel more relieved.
Btw, there must be some cons right for the phone. Another thing that I heard, the camera won't be that clear at night. Compare to ip4. And the battery life issue, can someone tell me more bout this? Thanks guys <3 |

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Sep 2 2011, 01:41 PM) paedophile... Camera for me is fine. Many other camera apps to use if you like. Vast choices. Battery. Medium usage 12 hours. Also depending on your usage lo. Some can last for 1day plus because of their preference. So really hard to say. If compare, iPhone 4 better than ag2 in battery. The rest, sg2.
