I want internal / external subtitles to be support in built-in video player. This is so that I can enjoy 5.1 which is not supported by any 3rd-party players currently.

      Well done sammy , the best tablet and the best smartphone in the market for this year.But don't forget that customers remember your childish mistakes with omnia hd (no suport at all) and galaxy s (problematic update to froyo, not available in some countries yet).Excellent hardware but we as consumers don't want nice,expensive bricks like omnid hd.

        First of all, a very very stupid commercial, very naive and not worthy of an Samsung. Gramma is using phone with her gloves, and we all know that that is not possible. No HDMI, and it is, in my opinion most important, completely copy of an Iphone. And btw, its computing power is not better of DHD (my be better for 5%, but that is not worthy 600+ euros) Only thing I take my hat off is display. Just woow

                I was kind of waiting for this device, but the camera samples are kind of disappointing, noisy, overcompressed, and even blurry with the least of the movements. About the same goes for the video.

                  Obviously, it's the best smartphone right now!
                  Great job, Samsung!

                  And 2.3 android is also impressive

                    Thanks for treating all us fans with this live coverage of the MWC. I have been waiting for this mother of all devices for a long time now. Any idea when will the Galaxy S II get launched now? Can I hope it to be April end? Or am I being too optimistic here!!

                        Mind blowing hardware specs but user experience is unpleasant. I'm disappointed with samsung after watching this video. With all its high power specs, the latest and most advanced technology, they cannot compare to iphone 4's smooth transition & animation effects. By the way, I'm not an apple fanboy, in fact, I'm not getting an iphone bcoz it cant be mod unlike android phones (moding, rooting, flashing & etc... is FUN). To me, it's unacceptable that samsung-motorola-lg with all their high power specs, the latest - the most advanced technology, cannot beat the user experience of iphone. so, to quote agent smith in the movie matrix 1 "Tell me, Mr. Anderson... what good is a phone call... if you're unable to speak?"

                          Those Camera samples are awesome!!

                          The first two there is little noise when you fully enlarge. I cannot wait to see what this thing cna do!

                              I pray there is somewhere in Samsung's plans with their Galaxy S II.
                              To release a version with a sliding, four row Qwerty keypad.
                              Aimed specifically for those like myself who were aiming for the mystical N9. ;-P
                              But since the Microkia announcement, are ready to embrace Android.
                              And want in on the dual-core, SAMOLED Plus, 1GB RAM, goodness that is Galaxy S II.
                              Bring on the typically comprehensive GSM Arena review!!
