SORRY ABOUT THE TITLE - Meant to say safe move, not safe mood.
Quick question: Is it an okay time to go buy a new Samsung Galaxy S2 (white)?

I've waited six months for the iPhone 5, and the iPhone 4S IMO is a waste of money, and for $200 (AUD) less i can buy a phone that competes pretty much equally with the 4S, the S2.

So, i'm being taken to the mall this afternoon; should i buy the S2 now? I understand that there's an upcoming android event, but i cannot wait any longer, or pay anymore then my S2 ($700 AUD) since i'm sure the nexus prime will be more money then that.

If i buy my S2 now, will i risk a future proof phone?

Thanks!
 
No phone is future proof. the S2 is still a good buy if that matters to you but every phone will be outperformed by a phone that is released 6 months later. If you wait for a phone that will remain top of the line for your entire 2 years or so with the phone you will wait forever.

Completely agree with you - very good point, kinda my life story >_>
