Samsung Galaxy SII anyone?

Been with using iPhones since they first came out, and have been looking forward to the iPhone 5 in the summer.

The new Samsung Galaxy SII coming out in the next couple of months looks like the first handset the could tempt me away from Steve Jobbs, although I'm still not sure about using Android!

Anyone else thinking about getting it?

  • Oh yes - sad husband and I even watched the Samsung live stream from MWC in Barcelona on 13 Feb:rotfl:

    Both of us are after it but my contract not due until August so by that time it should have been out a few months - enough to iron out bugs/get a feel for reviews - hope they are good!

    Yes, I'm quite looking forward to this. However it looks like it's going to be expensive- Expansys is listing it pre-order at £650 sim free, whereas the LG Optimum 2x and 3D is around £500. I'm guessing the contract for this would be an expensive one - although I'm hoping to get it free on a £35pm deal.

    Can someone explain to me why people are unsure about using Android? I never had any problems with it: are there any?
  • According to moneysupermarlet.com, Android phones hold four of the top five sales positions in the UK. The top three were all HTCs - the Desire, Desire HD and the Wildfire, in that order. The only non-Android phone in the top five is the Blackberry Curve. The iPhone is currently sixth.

    Given those stats, I'd say that the UK is very much embracing Android.
