  1. Samsung galaxy S2 is configured as a most incredible smart phone but It has only one week point, I realized that is “An LED Flash”. Why dint samsung use Dual LED Flash which is highly required with super strong 8 megapixel camera ? I need a conformation about the flash on atul_sharma1166@yahoo.com

  2. The price is NOT official. Therefore, don’t assume the extremities of the cost YET!

  3. Satya is right, should it not be 1.2GHz? Is it only for European models or something? Could you please check and confirm?

  4. If samsung launches with 1 ghz instead of 1.2 ghz that will be really bad… Samsung dont treat India like some dumping ground …
    Apple dose it launching phones close to 1 year late and they should be boycotted … let that fate not happen to you

  5. Gaurav Shukla the specification of the Samsung Galaxy S2 is different from what u have written .
    The phone will have 1.2 Ghz Dual core processor and the price will be somewhat between 26k to 30k .
    The price cannot be more than 30k . . .

    1. @Rahul…. Both the details are coming from Samsung, and company will confirm the exact details later near to the availability in the market.

  6. IS it the Official declaration of Samsung about the relase…????
    anyway today or tommorow i am gonna have this toy..!! Im simply loving it mmuah !! :-*

  7. ABOUT THE PROCESSOR…
    On increasing the speed of processor (like 2 GHz or 3GHz) its computing power increases but also increases the heat and complexity.. this is overcame by dividing processor on cores.. like dual or quad…

    IN SIMPLE WORDS !!
    A dual core 1GHz is better than 1.2GHz

  8. @ananya
    No a Dual Core 1 Ghz is “NOT BETTER” than a Dual Core 1.2 Ghz.. and u know it.. 🙂

  9. Hey Gaurav any process in finding what would be specification of S2 Indian version ?
    And plz tell when will be HTC Sensation get launched in India also give us the benchmarks reviews of S2 , Sensation nd Optimus 2x asap . . . .

  10. Same was the case with the predicted cost of the Samsung Galaxy S .
    All sites predicted that the Galaxy S will be launched at a price tag of minimum 30k but the Galaxy was launched at 26,900 Rs .

  11. Its my first JOB and I have slogged my first three months
    and have saved almost every single penny to buy this phone.

    Should I wait or Should I go ahead with SGS II ??
