A Review Of The Fantastic Samsung Galaxy S2

The Samsung Galaxy S2 has proven to be a phenomenally
popular follow up to the original Galaxy S. It offers an array of powerful
features whilst exuding style and impressive aesthetics.?/p>
In this article I will look at the styling of the device, as
well as some of its more prominent features.

The handset unit itself measures up at 125.3x 66.1x 8.5mm.
Its length and width are forgivable due to the fact that it packs a huge 4.3
inch Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen. The 8.5mm depth actually makes it the
slimmest smartphone in the world at the time of writing, seeing off rivals from
Apple (iPhone 4 at 9.3mm) and Sony Ericsson (Xperia Arc, 8.7). The advantages
of having a thin handset are numerous. Not only does it make the phone more
comfortable to hold and use, but it also fit much better into a pocket or
handbag. Additionally it also makes the phone look better; more modern and
sleek, not to mention it also contributes to the light weight of just 116
grams.

The styling if the device itself could be described as sleek
and minimalistic. It is rectangular in shape with slightly curved corners.
Obviously, the large screen dominates the front of the handset, which almost
reaches the side of the handset. Below the screen there is a home button,
similar to that found on an iPhone, along with two capacitive Android shortcut
keys. Above the screen we have the Samsung branding along with a speaker grill
and the front facing 2 megapixel camera.

The styling of the Samsung Galaxy S2 is likely to appeal to
many kinds of user, but as an added bonus for those who find the styling a very
important factor, there is now a white version of the handset available. This
is sure to prove ideal for those who also view their phone a fashion statement,
who are looking for a head-turning device which stands out from the crowd.
