Simply because besides games (and even that is arguable), the 1.2ghz clockspeed is wasted on Gingerbread. The OS doesn't really know how to even utilize the dual core. And it definitely doesn't NEED anything above 1ghz. Not yet anyway.

GTA3 might push the limits though, but as it's playable on Tegra2, I'm guessing 1ghz would be enough for it too. Similarly ICS might make better use of 1.2ghz, OR it might even be even more multi-core friendly so we can actually UNDERCLOCK even more lol.

Right now, clockspeed is as much a gimmick as megapixels are, IMHO.

upgrade it thru kies

Hi,
I am new here. My s2 is non-g version. Wish to upgrade it os from 2.3.3 version to 2.3.5 version. any way to not void the warranty but able to proceed to 2.3.5? thanks for the help / advice

Actually they got improve. 2 years age cpu are 500mhz with 2.8" screen. Now we have 4.3" screen and 1.2ghz dual core. Battery life still the same. My HD2 1250 battery is about the same size as the SGS2 1650.

Battery tech is DEAD. That's why. To compensate, like antt00 said, proc/SOC tech evolves for better power consumption.

To summarise, from my experience:


5800/N97 mini - nHD screen, 300mhz proc, no GPU, 128MB RAM, 265MB storage (8GB on the N97M), 3MP cam (5 on the N97M), 3G/BT/WIFI/GPS, li-poly = 1-2 days of use (7-8 hours surfing 3G)

And Sammy has ALREADY produced an ICS phone what? It's called the Galaxy Nexus lol.

Now, for something iOS can do, and Android can do just as well:



We just need more publishers who care. The games will come.

But, there's still a shitload of stuff I couldn't do with the iP4 that the SGS2 makes short work of (deep system modding, file transfer/sharing, more wholesome browsing experience, blacks that are actually black).

Conversely, there ARE things that the iP4/4S does better (low light photography, music playback quality, that razor sharp - albeit tinny tiny - screen, easier GUI customizibility).

So rather then bash here and there, WHOEVER'S asking that magic "which one are" question should first ask themselves, what do THEY want from their phone?

Pure specs wise, the iP4 is nowhere near the SGS2 though. And the iP4S is barely there.

paid app?

How to update frpm 2.3.3 yo 2..3.5?
only by flash custom rom?
Which rom is the most appropriate for battery?

i think we should have something like a thanks system here, like in xda.

Mobo Player still cannot work..
It still cannot fast forward..
Can somebody help me...
