For my small hands its not much of a problem,but sometimes might need to change hand position to reach some parts. as in pocketability, so far no prob

I got no problem using it with one hand, keeping in pocket... no feeling at all~ sometime I always thought that I forgot bring my s II along...

test the phone be4 getting if u think too big then don't buy....

perhaps this may seem easier to understand.







For the philosophy of the Apple iPhone is a terminal which must be able to use even with one hand , while the iPad is the one for which we require 2 hands.Apple conducts numerous studies on issues, such as the display, which may seem unnecessary to most. This is why Jobs has always said that the tablet smaller than 9 "are neither fish nor fowl, and so unpleasant to use.
This leads one to think that it is not said that we will never see an iPhone more than 3.5 ", unless they produce more than one, or the new CEO , with the disappearance of SJ, changing marketing strategies. Usually, however, are the others to follow Apple, and not the other way.

The screen is not too big for me cos I came from another 4.3 in device. I actually cannot use devices with smaller screen after almost 2 year using 4.3 in. My normal size hand have no problem using it by 1 hand.

Bulkiness is when the device is too thick or heavy NOT the screen size. SGS2 is the thinness and extremely light. You wont feel it at all. When i bought my HD2 i thought it will be bulky as well, but as it is very thin, it feel less bulky then all my previous devices even though it is bigger. So the SGS2 being lighter is even less bulky.

I find the quoted article very pointless. It's a matter of opinion. Some people find it too big, some think the trade-off for having a large screen is worth it, some find the screen to be just alright.

So, my advice is just try it out for yourself. When it comes to screensizes, it really is horses for courses. Someone finding it frustrating doesn't mean the same for everyone else.

+1

once u go BIG, never look back to small.

Similan, your hands is too TINY to hold an SGSII
go take your imaginary device... suits you.
IS imposible to do this on SGSII
Cause your hands is only the size of 13 year old kid...
I understand your frustration.





You will never know apple will come out a 4 inch device.
Others follow Apple, Apple nor follow people...
It's innovation we are talking about in this technology world...

I do hope you enjoy viewing your ant size website while others can enjoy viewing full net experience without eye strain

Oh yea i almost forgot, you sold off your SGSII... now imaginative with your "perfect" device


And stop copying from other articles, you just need put hyper link... thats all!

anyone know which seller that still have I9100?

Is Similan CELCOM.AXIATA? I'm getting the same troll vibe from him.

Yes, a recent troll... he keeps ranting about android weakness by placing iOS goodies... Just ignore that small fry, cause he failed in android section.

lol ??
how come malaysia s2 so special
got special version ???

like this sure go for old version

@Similan it just comes down to personal preference,some ppl hav small hands some have big hands. From wat u post here, i feel that u are slightly apple biased,always posting anti android stuff here n android forum

thanks all for the feedback on one hand operation. will definitely try it myself before buying.

maxis web site doesnt seems to show the sgs2 bundle anymore. any idea why?

i am not anti-android. understand that it is not something worthless bcos it sells quite a lot.
even myself has bought and used the sgs/sgs2/sensation before.
even not using iphone now but blackberry.

however, there are critical weaknesses in android that i happen to brought up.
unfortunately, instead of discussing like mature human beings, many here just seek to dismiss similan as 'troll' or somebody that doesn't know her stuff.
while i am sure that thr are many nice android users out there, many exist as extremist droidfags.

like it or not, apple is the leading smartphone brand and iphone is the world's most recognized phone that changed the world before.

i also hope one day, android/meego/windows phone can continue to survive and push for innovation.
too much dominant by one company is dangerous.

but before we change, we must analize what is the leader's strength and weakness. never ignore if we must improve.

yea those who think that article is useful(without testing the device them-self) can stay with 3.5"

but I believe most s2 users in this thread got no problem using it with 1 hand and I myself happy with big screen coz it makes browsing and gaming easier watching video better

and looking at the simple fact why android phone manufacturers(even nokia now look @ n9) keep making phones with bigger screen, because there are a demand... users wants it

so if you think you just want 3.5" phone... and you WORRY about can't control a 3.7" and above phone with one hand then just stick to 3.5" phone~

I can write out how I love my s2 4.3" screen or we will have tons of isheeps defending about 3.5" and how much they like it and how "easy" to use a iphone with 3.5" screen
but at the end is what u want? (and go test the damn phone will solve your 101 questions that u will get 1010 diff answers from 1010 diff ppl )

why do you talk in 3rd party at times. its highly annoying. its obvious you are apple biased.

get myself another 2 X Momax X-Level battery (1650mAh) Today at my Supplier..and of course with Momax Smart Battery Charger.

My SGS II Battery Usage is Less THAN A DAY !!!!! <(3G On all Days,received/Called more than 10+, sms ,Online 30-1 hours mins)

I don't need someone like you to bring it out the critical and weakness of android.
It's obviously you are not discussing you are taking advantage of it.
I'm android user doesn't mean I'm a droidfan of something... while you are showing your true colours of extremist ifags.
and iphone is not the only phone recognized the whole world...
phone manufactures don't need your blessing to improve themselves...

Anywhere can I download original android/s2 notification tones? I mean extracted to wav or mp3 ones. I am not using an android phone but I found out some notification tones are quite nice to be used with my BBM tone

Hope someone can link me even though i'm not in the community here... can't find online thanks in advance!

actually what the article said is true.
when i used sgs2 and sensation, many times it nearly slip and fell when i try to reach out to opposite corner with my thumb using one handed.

so to protect my investment, always have to use 2 hands, especially during web browsing or responding to notifications area. anyway, i was extemely frustrated and luckily managed to sell them at a good price to android lovers.

of course, others with longer fingers or fingernails may have different opinion,
it's perfectly OK with similan.
after all this is a discussion.
