Hmmm looks like there may will be a second SGS2 based on the Tegra chipset. I read it somewhere before but this is the second mention of it plus the odd picture on another site of a HDMI output it may well be on the Tegra version.
Chances are the UK wont see it.

Having been with an iPhone since the release of the 3G. Is there a site where I can learn the in's and out's of Android. Rooting, customizing, etc?

_Jimlad_ · 18 Feb 2011 at 11:18

Try www.xda-developers.com

Everything you need to know about rooting, flashing and customizing Android and Windows phones is on there.

Going straight to XDA is too complicated for someone that has no idea about Android really

more hands on play time

its makes me laugh how they populate all the homescreens full of samsungs crappy widgets - the layout is shocking and the dock is fugly. They should have at least had a nice colourful vivid wallpaper to show off the super display.

Shame this isn't the google nexus s. It would then have the nice hardware and software support of google for updates meaning no waiting about.

I have to admit the hardware looks very nice. Touchwiz eurgh! Does it have an led this time round? Does this mean they have dumped support for the galaxy s and won't be updating it again leading to more examples of android fragmentation across devices?

Just looking at the specs between the Motorola Atrix and the SGS2. Looks like the Atrix will have better screen resolution and bigger battery.
I think that HDMI connection is not supported by the Samsung chipset as every tegra2 phone has the HDMI connection as does the Atrix.

Strange why Samsung didnt just use the Tegra 2 instead of their own chipset, this could be down to its better to use what you have then you can meet demand. I wont be happy when Samsung releases the Tegra 2 version in an other part of the world.

i agree, the moto looks sweet, but a locked bootloader

that's 2 out of the many reasons why the Atrix is top dog for me right now.

the others are the smaller foot print, 4 android buttons, HDMI out, fingerprint reader. I also prefer the overall look of the Moto.

The sammy's killer features are the screen and camera.
