Hi guys,

I'm planning to buy SGS2, but I've heard that it's quite lag. Is this true?

Lag? LAG?

I don't know where you heard THAT from, but no. No lag on the SGS2 UNLESS whoever's using it is not quite smart at making full use of Android.

using MIUI worh xD
go 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!  biggrin.gif

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. LOL

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

look... you get the phone is to please yourself and not others...

you come into android section, sure android fans will tell you android is the best.

you go to apple section, they'll tell you ios is the best.

you ask the sales fella... he'll tell you what gives him the best $$$ (be in incentives, etc).

just go to a shop and test it out la... i'm quite sure there are shops out there with a sample unit you can play with. i was at digi shop in ss2 and i recall seeing sgs2 and iphone4. play all you want... and decide... heck, i think they also got windows phone. who knows... maybe bill gates is still the best leh?!?

I just wanna know from s2 users that whether they have any complains on the phone so far. =.="

battery life depends on how u configured it, it can last from 12hrs - 3days.

Mollai, its entirely possible. I reconfigured my theme into a minimalistic one and it lasts me 1 and a half day even with heavy usage(I'm on stock firmware unrooted). With moderate usage and custom kernal and firmwares I don't think its impossible.

I bought Beautiful Widgets and the Widgetlocker lockscreen.

No matter what your question is, the first page usually answers most of them. laugh.gif

S2 on a girl is good. I don't like girls who buy iPhones due to them being mainstream and in trend now. wub.gif

If you don't intend to alter anything i.e: firmware/kernal/rooting; then its recommended you go for HTC phones. Their stock firmware is much better if compared to Samsung's. I for one can confirm this.

Buying it next month is not late but then the Q4 phones will start rolling out and you'll cry if there's a better deal for the same price. But the price of the S2 will definitely drop a little when they're launched so its worth the wait.

I bought it from SenQ. Took the last unit. Its still really hot. They still go out of stock two months after the initial launch sweat.gif

HTC? I dun like their design. I prefer s2 design. tongue.gif

i really have no idea what's firmware/kernal/rooting (rooting is like jailbreak right?)

well, I just need a phone that is worth the money.

You're under which celco? how much u bought your s2?

23xx including 5 years warranty and 3 years 1:1 exchange with an S2 or phone of the same price(can top up if you want) if it spoils and the replacement parts are more than 80% of the phone's initial price.

The S-AMOLED+ screen itself is around 8xx or so I've heard sweat.gif

Under DiGi.

Oh wow! That's actually quite a good deal.

I was just planning to get the phone from maxis. Sign the data plan.

But yours come with 3 yrs 1 to 1 exchange. WTF. So damn cool!!! But the screen 8xx it's only about 35-40% of 2300. =.=

aiyak..there was actually another question my mind but i forgot. lol...can I ask you later when I remember.

Thanks DK wink.gif

i successfully rooted and flashed custom kernel for my fren's incredible S biggrin.gif and i must admit that sense 3.0 reli stolen my heart  blink.gif
it worth the money, but i dun think u can restrain urself long from flashing custom rom (unless u reli dunno and dunwan learn like my noob sis, and nobody can/wan help u). other than social hub and touchwiz, others are bloatware to me doh.gif

and one more thing, my SGSII is still single, refuse to marry it with other blood sucking telco

to be honest, depending on ur usage n need then only choose to go for which telco. high usage on talktime n sms, go for celcom. if mainly for data purpose, take digi or even umobile prepaid. if both moderate usage, take maxis (beware of bill shock). jz my 2cents
