Alternative to a Galaxy SII

SPG · 13 Jun 2013 at 13:01

Had my S2 for a couple of years now, but whats the alternatives, for something just as powerfull and good camera, but want a smaller package. The S2 is if anything still a little too big, so it cancels out the S3/4 etc.

The S3 feels the same size, if not smaller than the S2 due to it's shape. I wouldn't rule it out completely..

I have to disagree with the above. I had S2 guy in office had s3 mines felt smaller and was.

Galaxy S4 mini or iPhone 5, the rest are too big or too compromised.

Hmm galaxy s4 mini i think. I had a iphone 3 and got rid of it sharpish due to Itunes being how can we say it "horrible"

oppo find 5 mini IF the rumours are true.

What about the forthcoming Galaxy Ace3 perhaps? or as mentioned an s3 or s4 mini?

Worth checking the one s out as well.

Superb camera, overall better than the GS 2 and despite having similar dimensions, it actually feels smaller and more comfortable in the hand due to the design.

Could pick it up for pretty damn cheap these days via ebay and gumtree, just make sure you get the S4 1.5GHz version!

I had an S2 and I've got an S3 now, can't say there was much difference

You've all got baby hands if an S3 is too big.

s3 is ok.. but no way does it feel the same

i actually cant stand the way it feels in hand compared to my s2

I've got an s2 and an s4 and the s4 feels as much bigger as it is physically. I'm not saying its too big as for me it isnt, but in no way do they feel the same size lol

Fair enough, but I did say the S3, not the S4. Unless the S4 is the same size as the S3?

I haven't even seen an S4 in the wild yet

grudas · 14 Jun 2013 at 11:27

its smaller than s3 so.

benjo · 14 Jun 2013 at 11:37

Meh, maybe I just remember my S2 feeling clunky.
