          Wind, 16 Aug 2012I have a Galaxy S II too and a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S. ... moreYes, but in 2 months Google will launch 5 Nexus phones with better specs than the GS3 which I agree it's very expensive.

          I will like to have a HD screen and enough juice for the battery and this is where Motorola win with 3300mAh battery adding on it the build quality.

          I'm a big fan of Motorola's build quality but the GS2 was the best phone overall and updating it to Jelly Bean, give it a long life. So, I can wait even 5 months before I change the phone.

                no update for galaxy R
                despite being promised
                hell even the processor drivers haven't been released to get even a ICS custom ROM

                dreaming of jellybean is pointless

I don't want to upgrade to S III either. It's too expensive (it's 600 euros in my country and I'm not buying anything above 500 euros) and microSIM pulls me away from it. I'm looking for a dual-core or quad-core phone with microSD card slot, regular SIM and a big battery (at least 1800 mAh) that launches with ICS or Jellybean. For now, Sony Xperia Acro S is on the top of my list.

                          AnonD-46560, 16 Aug 2012Putting jelly bean to s2 is like putting iOS 6 to iphone 3G.Please , do some , SOME research before you start your verbal diarrhea . ICS and JB are equally demanding hardware vise .

                          P.S. on a 1.2 GHz ARM processor with 800 MB RAM you can run a full-blown Linux distro , not a strip-down and mobility optimized one (hint (Android) .

                          So , don't try to think too hard , you head will explode !

                              rcl4444, 16 Aug 2012In terms of intended features - yeah, ICS is pretty good. ... morehmph, ICS is good, you cant compare it to vistas fail 0,0 just bacuse the long update line, because google changing the android from a deep lv thats why it took google even cyanogenmod to rewrite many thing within the system.
