iPhone 4s or Samsung Galaxy S2 ???

[milomak]

a relative of mine has the stock gs2. have to say i was underwhelmed by it. i'd still choose it over an iphone. but having played with my wife's sensation, i think that on a stock basis; the sensation pulled me more.

that said i have been more a htc fella down the years so it may be that bias even though i bought a galaxy tab.

If two people with iPhones are sitting next to each other, they might easily pick up each other's phones, cos every iPhone's home screen looks exactly the same.

I've never seen one Android phone's home screen look the same as another one.

I get that a lot... http://i1177.photobucket.com/albums/x357/greg0205/IMG_0199.jpg

Saw a nice theme-changing app the other day. Had all the kewl SGS2 ones. Applied at the touch of a button. For all those who care about individuality and different artistic hip home screens.

Just don't fall for the "Galaxy has 1.2GHz dual core and iPhone only has 800MHz dual core" thing.
Just have a look then for yourself at the benchmarks before going for the "specs shootouts".

I fail to see why anyone would go for a SGS2 over the new RAZR?

One the same contract, the SGS2 is 250pm and the RAZR is 229.

The RAZR also doesn't feel so plasticy, don't get me wrong though, the SGS2 is still one of the best phones available, I just think the RAZR is better, sexier and more durable being dust and splash proof, not to mention the kevlar back. And then there's the plethora of accessories Motorola offers.

I said the same about the original RAZR. They've probably still got it in the Vodacom repair shop in Canal Walk if you want to have a look

True story.

Seriously, once bitten, twice shy. I'll never buy Motorola again.

The Moto should be cheaper, cos it uses a cheap Pen Tile display.

Get the best of Both worlds.

Buy a SGS2 and flash MIUI (Needs root)

Old Review but still relevant http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/the-complete-review-of-miui-rom-for-android-walkthrough-guide/
ROM MIUI : http://galnetmiui.co.uk/landing/stables/

What is even better is you can change the look thanks to millions of free themes.

Hell if you really want iOS GUI you can even load Espier on SGS (No root needed)
