I wouldn't take it that far dude... I'm still getting it. It's a shame Samsung didn't have the balls to lose the front logo like apple do.

So what are you getting instead of the SGS2 then snapdragon

Apple don't need their logo on it, their devices are instantly recognisable. Samsung don't enjoy such a luxury; it'd be in danger of looking like a cheap, generic device without a logo on.

Oh well ive taken the plunge and pre ordered it.... let the waiting commence!

Randell Floyd · 10 Apr 2011 at 17:14

Who are people pre-odering this with? It's been a while since I pre-orderd a phone so who's a good retailer that will have it on my door as soon as it's out? Play, ******?

AlexTrickle · 10 Apr 2011 at 18:11

Are the prices I've heard (around £550) accurate?

Really want this as I love my current SGS and would hate the feeling of knowing their is a better model but I am a student and my contract lasts a year longer so couldn't afford this

Or alternatively how much would I likely make from selling my SGS?

Robbo · 10 Apr 2011 at 18:43

Its going to be roughly £500 SIM free.

Your SGS will sell for £200-250 (at most).

Really liking the look of this, and my contract is up for renewal soon too so it could be good timing. Just hope it's not mega expensive.

Hasn't the logo been there like for ever?

Jabbs · 10 Apr 2011 at 20:25

Was the same on the Galaxy S, can't see a problem with it tbh.

Robbo · 11 Apr 2011 at 00:38

Next 3 weeks.

Sickboy · 11 Apr 2011 at 00:47

Pre ordered sim free - Hate waiting.

Robbo · 11 Apr 2011 at 00:50

Nobody hates waiting as much as me.

I can't decide whether to stay with Orange and get this as an upgrade or move to Vodafone, Orange seem to have very unreliable net and call signal recently.

Less than that, I only got £220 for brand new boxed one

i'm the same. i think i'll go with voda or o2 if they offer a a good enough deal for the handset i want. i guess this'll be the one if it's due soon as turns out my contract ended in feb

sunny007 · 11 Apr 2011 at 14:48

where can you pre order this from?

Randell Floyd · 11 Apr 2011 at 15:17

Not a big shock as it had been stated before, but it's now been confirmed by Samsung UK that 1st of May is the release day. It being a Sunday and then Monday being a bank holiday I would expect places to ship on the 3rd.

Nice!

It wasn't April, I was right after all

ZG002 · 11 Apr 2011 at 17:25

Quick question, Would you take this phone over the iphone 4? Vodafone just called me and offered me a good deal on a 16gb iphone 4.

600 mins
250 texts
Unlimited landline calls
Unlimited Voda 2 Voda calls
1GB iPhone data
1GB wifi
iPhone 4 16GB free of charge

for £30 a month. Ain't tried to push them for extra yet either.

(I never go over 200 text a month as I have a works phone)
