Everything is fine and awesome in fact. Some negative points I noticed are:-
1) MAx 20 SMS can be sent ata time
2) MAx characters in sms are limited to 3 sms only and after that it converts into MMS automatically and there is no setting to control it.
3) Display image in call is ultra small. My earlier phone N-8 was having full display image in call.
I expected these problems will be resolved in ICS update but no improvement. I don't understand what have they improved in ICS. Even one more negativity they have added i.e. one sound used to come when mobile was fully charges, now that also has been removed.
Hope all these will be resolved in Jelly Beam update.

Really bad experience with s2....really bad experience.....laggy UI...cartoonish icons...harsh color reproduction of display....poor sunlegibility....about a year ago when android 4.0 was announced and still i cant get that update....frequent restarts of mobile phone....apple iphone is simply the best and will always be....so smooth performance and quickest availability of updates...

Is there anyone who can explain me why before I was able to play Full HD movie without a problem and after a phone restore, there's only sound?! That pisses me off, I just bought a MHL cable to play movies from my S2 on my tv, any ideas?

hi guys.. i'm new with android, i've been an avid nokia fan for the last few years, until recently i suffered much trouble with my n97, i decided to buy sgs2. and so far, as my experience is concern, this phone is amazing, lightning quick, and has so many features. however i'm really really troubled with its LOCK SCREEN, it has very short time interval, it keeps on locking from time to time, and i don't find any tweaks to fix it. and that's very annoying.
CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME HOW I GET RID OF THIS? will be much appreciated.. thanks in advance
god bless us all

There's one thing in the review that I'd like to comment on about the display. The green tint present on the Galaxy S I9000 is still there on the Super Amoled Plus unit. While browsing the web, if I tilt the phone a bit, there's a definite greenish tint on the whites. I'm stating 'while browsing' because the screen is whiter at this time and any colour shift can be easily witnessed on the white.
Not that it's a problem, but still worth noting that GSMArena has put it up wrongly
