Love it! Wonderful phone. Bought it when it was the flagship early in 2012. I've used it every day since then and it has worked like a dream - cell phone/ebooks/wifi/3G hotspot - everything! It still looks great and is just now, after 5 years of constant use, starting to give me connection/call problems. It's getting out-of-date and some of my favorite apps won't work on it anymore, but 5 years is a great run time for a phone. Soooo it's time to buy a new one. I'm comparing many Samsungs but I'm leaning towards the S7. My experience with the S2 has shown me that it's best to buy the flagship phone as it will last for years and look good doing it!

IceQueen, 09 Feb 2017Hey, I have gone back to my s2 and running minimal apps.. I... moreUse custom ROMs.
I have Samsung Core and the ROM that I have installed has about 50% better benchmark results. Some have reached even 80-90% improvements.
Also, you can backup data and delete the phone. It will improve the performance.

So the rear facing camera is something you'd expect from younger phones such as the iPhone 6s so good but secondary not so much and battery could be bigger but overall good. 4.5 Stars

Yep, had mine since it first came out and it's still going strong (pico GApps and minimal apps). It's had various roms but Cyanogen (RIP) has been its saving grace. So far I've only had two smartphones, the HTC Hero, then this S2. Not sure what I'll get when(if) the S2 dies...

One of the best phones I ever purchased. It swam twice, fell a couple of time and still works like a boss.

Indeed one of the best Samsung phones. Bought it in 2011, no cracks or anything even after some brutal crashes. Did change the OS multiple times as well as the battery once, but it just works like a work horse. Even today it's pretty snappy, though some apps do that a while to load, such as messanger, maps.me etc.

One of the best phones from Samsung. Great phone. Purchased this phone on Aug 2nd, 2011. Using till date, without any issues. Haven't changed the battery as well till now. Of course, the battery drains due to a low power(1650MAH) and also due to the high end games.

This is my first Android phone and I'm still using it to this day (since June 2011). Phone becomes a bit slow when using some apps as they are more resource hungry. Battery life is not as top notch as the phones of today. I'm using CM13 on this thing and I can confidently say I can still use it as my daily driver. Thank you Samsung for one heck of a phone xD

Hi. I've used this phone for the last 2 years. Good phone for pictures, calls and internet (when you're not in a hurry). When i turn on the data, the s2 freezes for about a min until it gets his updates, but my other s3 neo keeps rollling. When I plus in the charger, the s2 responds very slow and freezes, but the s3 neo works ok. The silver border gets wiped out really easy and looks ugly if you don't use a cover. The s2 is really thin for its age (was a great phone when was released, better than iphone 4 I think) but the display is a bit smalI. I would not recommend this phone in 2017 more than a backup phone for calls and short social media checks.
