Both seem to be "whenever" devices, since seems VZW is more into their Apple luv ATM. Still sticking with August/September time frame and since the apparent BS info that GS2 was August, I say Bionic in August and GS2 in September.
I was in England last week and messed with the GS2 for a while. Seems the common issue there is weak wifi, but a popular device, none the less. The 16gb version has 11.5gb free as "sdcard" and 1.89gb free for locked app storage.
Display is of course super sweet and was better in the sun than my non-super amoled Inc. It also did not seem to get as hot as I expected, since the Snap 8655 and Tegra 2 both get toasty in current devices (DX2 seems hotter due to the metal build).
Speaking of the wifi, it did seem as weak or weaker than the A500, which is pretty bad, so wonder if same issue in US versions? I also wonder if VZW will skimp on internal storage like they have with all other Sammy devices, compared to other carriers. None the less, the thin build and display were nice and apps were as fast as expected with a dual core.
Was considering getting the DX2 again, but there is ZERO sign any of the current issues will be addressed and some folks state they have no issues. The net effect is the issues will probably not get fixed, so I guess I will wait for the Bionic or GS2 and not deal with low memory issues (to name one of the issues on the DX2).
Still doubt the Bionic will be a 4.5" pentile, since seems that and LTE would mean trips to a charger every few hours.
If the Bionic is 4.3", 16gb built in with same great radios of other Moto devices, I will probably get the Bionic.... or maybe not. I guess I am just as aimless as VZW Android premium device efforts.
May just stick with my muddy call quality Incredible- out of spite until next year
