HTC desire? or samsung galaxy S II? or Blackberry?
Q. Im 13 years old, and i have a crappy £50 asda phone, i don't like it, and would like a smart phone.
the HTC desire looks pretty good, but so does the galaxy S2, and also blackberry, I don't know which phone to get.
Which phone should i get, pros and cons, and also, where can i buy them, like a link online or something.
I don't want an iphone btw, no questions asked.
A. Get Samsung Galaxy S 2 :)
The Samsung Galaxy S II is the phone the Korean firm deems the successor to its best smartphone so far. And with a 1.2GHz processor, super-slim chassis and feather-light innards, it's easy to see why.
The dual-core race is set to heat up massively over the next few months, with the LG Optimus 2X already released, and the Motorola Atrix, HTC Sensation and iPhone 5 all set to bring the tech to market too.
Coming in at £35 a month and £519.99 SIM-free, the Galaxy S 2 isn't the cheapest phone out there by a long chalk â so let's see if it can match up to that larger price tag.
Our colleagues at T3.com grabbed some Samsung Galaxy S2 footage that you can watch below:
The Samsung Galaxy S2 is almost impossibly thin when you pick it up â dimensions of 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5mm mean it's one of the thinnest smartphones on the market at the moment, rivalling the likes of the iPhone 4 and Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc for the title.
It's crazy-light too â when we show you what tech is rammed under the hood, you'll be amazed that it all goes in a device that weighs only a shade over 100g (116g, to be precise).
Samsung clearly traded the premium feel an all-metal chassis might have brought to keep the grams off the Galaxy S2 â pop the battery cover off and you'll find you're holding a piece of pretty flimsy plastic.
However, most of the time you won't be removing this and it fits nicely into the contoured chassis â the mesh feel on the rear also helps keep your hand from getting warm during extended holding.
The other thing you'll notice when you first pick up the Galaxy S2 is the screen â at 4.3 inches it's hard to miss, and when you turn it on the Super AMOLED plus technology hits you square in the eyeballs (once it's got through the toughened Gorilla Glass).
We called the Samsung Galaxy S "the best phone on the market for media" when we reviewed it, thanks to its first-gen Super AMOLED screen. Now the Galaxy S2 has definitely improved on that, with a superbly crisp and vibrant screen.
The only problem is a slightly schizophrenic auto-brightness - if you try and save battery by having the sensor monitor ambient light levels, then the screen decides to bounce about with light levels even in same conditions.
UPDATE: Samsung has released a fix to solve this problem already, so forget about it. Un-read what you just read. We could delete it, but that would be lying to you.
In the hand, the Galaxy S2 sits much better than we'd have expected, given the whopping screen on offer, and that's mostly down to its slim depth.
The front of the phone is pretty sparse, with the home key the only piece of furniture on offer. This rectangular button flanks two touch-sensitive buttons â Menu and Back â so there's no room for contextual search here.
The volume keys are located on the left-hand side, and the power/lock key is on the opposite flank; both are easy enough to hit without error, and crucially the travel on the power key is softer so that it's much easier to hit when you're juggling it in the palm â compare that to its predecessor, where you could accidentally drop it trying to shut off the screen.
The 3.5mm headphone jack lives on the top of the phone, bucking the lower placement on other 4.3-inch screen phones, and the microUSB slot (which also doubles as an HDMI out port) lives on the bottom.
The only other element of note is the 8.1MP camera with single LED flash on the rear â it's slightly raised, but not so much that it disrupts the Galaxy S2 when you're placing it on a table, thanks to a rear lip to help you hold the phone.
Samsung Galaxy S3 keeps tuning itself off ! Help ?
Q. So I've had this S3 for exactly 1 year. A few weeks ago it started to turn off by itself unexpectedly. Randomly, sometimes when speakimg on the phone, sometimes when on Facebook, sometimes while listening to music. I observed that it used to download apps by itself, but after I got an anti-virus, it stopped. It annoys me so much. When it turns off, the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo appears, dissqpears, then appears again, repating this for 100000000 times. Only by pressing all the possible buttons it gets out of this appearing and reappearing or whatever. It just makes me want to go for Apple, even though I don't like it so much, any help ? I tried wiping chache, booting in safe mode, virus scan, and even software update, nothing
A. Your phone crashing. The programming in your phone is most likely corrupt. It possible need to reinstall the whole OS. You need to take your phone to your carrier and tell them to fix it for you.
By the way with apple they take care of anti-virus and all that stuff in its operating system, especially with the software updates.
For the record Samsung is an evil corporation they've done things like create fake fundraisers to fund ex politicians. They got caught for it. But they only got away with a slap on the wrist. That's just one thing on their long lists of being evil.
At least with Apple. Steve Jobs is a dick but he poured his heart and soul into every project he ever worked on because he was passionate about the product. He wanted it to be intuitive and an extension of the user. With every product I've ever used of his I've been able to connect to from the operating system to the physical design its simple, cohesive and it was made for anyone and everyone to be able to use easily. Its everything my design professors strived at teaching me to make. Every single concept I've learned in design school I see it in apple products.
With Samsung. The people behind the product work really hard and it shows. Its great work. But Their work isn't cohesive or simple. They keep throwing these great features but that's all they are. They're thrown in. When I look at a Samsung phone I see a dickless man driving a giant penis mobile who gets all these toys to compensate for the fact that they dont have the thing that makes them authentic or original. Samsung takes alot of other corporations and ideas from other people they say that its theirs. I would respect them more if they said they were inspired by these other companies but just try and destroy them. At least when Steve jobs attacks other companies its because they actually stole his OS, ideas, or screwed him over. Maybe he deserved being screwed over for a dick but at least he was executing his vision not taking credit for someone else's. I hate their CEO and the fact that they try to do things like market apple look like its for old people and samsung its for young people. If the product is strong enough they don't need to do this type of marketing. This is the exact part of korean culture I hate. If they feel threatened they try to ruin someone else's image. They do this in business and family politics. (i'm korean)
Sorry for the rant. There's just alot of people who just choose samsung because they just don't want to follow the apple crowd. They say all these things and make these decisions without even doing the research. I use everything apple, nexus, google, hp, toshiba and do my research. But I can't stand people talking out of their ass. My rant has nothing to do with you. Its directed to the people who rant about hating on apple. They keep saying they have proof why they can be such a dick and make other people feel bad for liking apple when really they are talking out of their ass and deserve to have their god dam samsung phones explode in their face.
