    Phone dimensions?

    Even after the may 5th NY event there still are no official specs? I can't find the dimensions. The only thing they give is the 8.9 to 9.24 millimeter thickness. What about width and height?

    99.9898% certain. Mmmm the Infuse looks sexier than the SGS2. Too bad it is slower. YouTube - Samsung Infuse 4G Unboxing

    Help How good is audio in the video captures?

    Anyone already with an SGS2 can comment on the recorded audio on 1080p/720p video captures? Decent enough for concerts? Does it sound lo-fi and synthetic?

    Help Different back cover on retail unit

    This might not be a big deal to most, but for me at least it makes the phone more desirable. I didn't like the deep criss-cross pattern on the SGS2, but it seems they have made it much more subtle and more dimpled looking in the retail unit. We got our hands on a retail Samsung Galaxy S II...

    Mobile-review.com review for Samsung Galaxy S II

    Help Camera quality and video recording

    A lot of the pictures and vids I've seen of the camera don't look so hot. This is coming from a Samsung Vibrant. The vids I've seen are jerky with jumpy exposure and really bad audio capture quality. I am mainly on the fence right now with the camera/vid capture holding me back. What is your...

    Battery covers for Samsung Galaxy S and Vibrant

    Are there third party battery covers for the Samsung Galaxy S? And will they work for the Vibrant since they look so similar? What I mean by battery cover is the piece of plastic you remove to get to the battery and sim card, maybe also called the backplate. Because all the accessories I see on...

    How to avoid stolen phones on eBay?

    I've only had experience buying unlocked GSM phones from large eBay stores. I was thinking of getting a Garminfone for $300ish on T-mobile but most of the sellers don't have their own eBay stores and are just small time sellers with less than 100 feedback and such. How do I make sure I'm not...
