$1000? Unreasonable price I think, I can get 1 tablet and 1 hell of a android smartphone with that much money.

Andriodloser, 07 Sep 2011I find it funny that every time there is a new Android phon... moreOh dear, you clearly haven't touched an android phone before. Its as fluid as iOS in surfing and infact, smarter than iOS in many ways. Use it, see it and touch it before calling the other camp names.
Android phones are open source. With so many competition between them, its a no wonder the phone hardware is improving rapidly, thus the benchmark improvements. Of course you won't see that in iPhones, will you? I find that pure logical but if you don't, i suggest you to reflect and think. How can newer and stronger processors not fetch a better benchmark score?
You said to let you know when high quality games are found on android. On the other hand, you mentioned you won't be keeping up since you will be stuck in infinity blade. Isn't that simply blind fanboyism? You won't let yourself see what merits the other camp has. (OMG, i got bored of Infinity Blade in 7 hours. Its just repeating itself over and over again and you call that high quality? By now you should be on the 1000th bloodline?)

I find it funny that every time there is a new Android phone, it's benchmark is always ridiculously high.
And yet, till to date, there is not Android phone with a smooth and fluid UI like iOS.
I pity android actually, especially the morons who buy those phones.
Ok then, don't bother to reply as I will be playing Infinity Blade on my iPad 2 after this. Let me know once your android has a high quality game like that. AHAHAHAHA!

Anonymous, 07 Sep 2011What makes it better? if it's better, why they cannot sell ... moreI have had bothe the iphone 4 and SGS2. The SGS2 is better specs and OS and probably just behind on apps.
Just not being tied to iTunes makes the SGS2 better. Thats without mentioning the camera, the screen the processor, flash etc etc. As for the operating system. Using lauchers (i.e. golauncher) actually creates an interface that is better that iOS. Screen locker enables the lock screen to be anything you want.
One example, with tTorrent i can download a movie or music straight to to my phone without connecting to a CPU. Apple would never allow open software like this.

Just like the title of the article says, this phone's price is REALLY NOT IMPRESSIVE. In fact, it's just plain dumb. Stupendously not thought of. If they price is this high when it arrives elsewhere in the world, I will boycott samsung and tell my friends to boycott them as well.
Products should be price right at the start. Not too cheap and too expensive. The Galaxy S II off contract starting price in Asia was okay. That was 5 months ago. Specs have improved. I expect a quad core Galaxy S III 7 months from now at Galaxy S II price when it first launched.
But this phones. WOW. They better price it right because they will lose my friends and myself as customers. That's almost a hundred lost. Imagine if my friends tell their friends..
DOMINO EFFECT!

Yeah it is expensive no doubt but i think the portability of this size and form factor may compensate many. 1280x800 resolution cramped into 5.3 inch AMOLED screen, that's quite a screamer. Not to mentioned other capabilities. I already start saving for this phone! 32Gb version please?

MeeGo is DOA and even Nokia doesn't believe in that OS. WP is the right OS for Nokia. The N9 will be a BIG flop and it will go the way of WebOS.

AnonD-1906, 07 Sep 2011Gs2 even Gs1 is better than iphone4What makes it better? if it's better, why they cannot sell as much as iPhone do? they are not even half the sales of iPhones.
To be "better" is not just on specs, it has to be the whole system, the whole user experience. Too many reasons to be better. And for me, the real measure of better phone is if it sells well. " the proof of the pudding is in the eating".
Goodluck to the new Samsung Galaxy line-up, lets see how it compares with sales of iPhone.
I love some of the Android handsets, such as HTC and Sony E, but to the fact that this is Android full of crashes and bugs, i will hold my iPhone till Android OS becomes stable.

Been drooling over this gadget for two days now. This news breaks my heart for I only have a $700 ceiling budget. I just hope that by Q2 2012, that $1,100+ marker has depreciated significantly already.
