Lightning-fast performance. Super AMOLED Plus is fantastic. Camera is amongst the best we've seen. TouchWiz 4.0 has some neat shortcuts
Samsung's overlay to Android has some very interesting features this time around
Latest version of Android (Android 2.3 Gingerbread)
One of the thinnest and lightest phones we've ever felt
The editors didn't like

TouchWiz
Even though it does the job
Is too iPhone-ish
No notification LED! 1! *angry face*
No native micro-HDMI connection
Limited 4G coverage
Screen resolution outdated
Thicker
Heavier than 3G model
The smartphone is high-priced and on the larger side
And you can't remove bloatware
The Samsung Galaxy S II lacks a hardware camera button
And you need to remove to battery to access the microSD card slot. Call quality could be better
AT&T's LTE network is only available in a few cities at the time of the Skyrocket's launch
It has a somewhat cheap
Plastic feel
Call quality could be better. The device is large and has a plasticky build
U.S. Cellular's Samsung Galaxy S II has a slower network. It's significantly pricier than other handsets in the carrier's lineup
Too large for some

Poor call quality
Flimsy back cover
Poor keyboard layout
Samsung Apps portal
Some parts of the phone feel flimsy
Text hard to read when zoomed out in browser
Plastic battery cover and no camera button
Volume on earpiece could be louder
Slightly thicker and heavier than the Galaxy S II. Larger screen needs a higher resolution. Older version of Android
Battery life is disappointing
Videoout requires a separate adapter

Screen not very bright and doesn't reproduce colours accurately, MHL convertor for HDMI ports not included, Still entirely plastic, Yet another iPhone clone, TouchWiz not for everybody
The Galaxy S already had a lot going for it, but Samsung's second generation of the smartphone is very much a product of its time. The Galaxy S II is incredibly powerful but surprisingly thin and light at the same time. Our biggest disappointment was t...

Abstract: So you’ve read the reviews of the latest dual-core Android smartphones, but what about the raw power figures on the Motorola ATRIX, HTC Sensation, Samsung Galaxy S II and the LG Optimus 2X?We thought we’d put all the dual-core handsets in a line and test ...
The Android space was dominated by the Galaxy S last year and I expect that this year the entire mobile space will be dominated by it's successor. The hardware on the Galaxy S II won't be beaten for quite some time (perhaps until this time next year) o...
Incredibly fast, Dazzling 4.3in screen, Excellent video playback, Web browser supports Flash, Light for its size
Too large for some, Plastic build doesn't feel premium, Poor call quality
Other Samsung additions include the hubs, of which there are four: Music, Game, Readers, and Social. Music provides access to a music download service provided by 7Digital. The interface is simple but effective – so long as you know what artist you're sea...
It's genuinely hard to find fault with the Samsung Galaxy S II. Though Android and Samsung's own TouchWiz UI still aren't quite up to the sleek standards of iOS, the hardware on show here makes this not only the greatest Android device we've seen so far...
The Samsung Galaxy S II is a significant improvement on its predecessor and a terrific Android phone. While the battery life isn't the greatest, its slim profile, powerful processor, 8Mp camera and (almost) all the latest treats Android has to offer, ...
The Samsung Galaxy S II is the most exciting smartphone we've seen for a long time. Expensive, yes - but it sits right at the top of the specifications tree. If we had the cash to hand, we'd buy one in a jiffy. ...
I loved the little Samsung tweaks. They're not “in your face”. They're not annoying. They're brilliant. The Kies Air app is stunning. The Hubs, whilst mostly out-sourced, help to aggregate content that would normally just get dumped in the apps-list. The...
Although it would benefit from a build quality that befits its premium price, that’s the only real complaint we can level at the Samsung Galaxy S II. This is by far the best Android smartphone we’ve seen and anyone currently eyeing up an iPhone 4 shoul...

There’s plenty more in terms of software we could go into, from the excellent contact linking to the integrated task killer and the dead-easy DLNA sharing software, AllShare, but what you really want to read is our final verdict on the Samsung Galaxy S...
