Currently I'm writing from samsung galaxy s+. It's from my sisters boyfriend/husband. The mobile kicks ass. I know that comparing to s2 or new s4 it's weak, but for the price range it's awesome!
I think I'll try to convince my parents to buy me one xD The only problem is that I'd have to go to Austria to buy it, there it's 250€ and here it's over 300€ and I don't want to sign any stupid 2 yr contract... I so need to start freelancing...

I'm planning on buying a smartphone too these days (never owned one), since my Nokia 6151 is so prehistoric. The Galaxy would be my #1 choice indeed, and iphone is definitely not an option

The S2 is still the best version right? (I don't know really anything about phones). All the people who own it are quite enthusiastic (Pumpy included) , but the prices here are ->

S2 is dropping in price pretty fast. 360 euro for a new one.
But honestly I bought S1 a month before S2 came out and I feel no need to replace it with S2. |
Yeah, I'll probably wait some more weeks if I don't find the super-convenient offer

Hehe there's the trick!: my father needs to make a contract because of his job (salesman), and that contract would include a medium-range smarthphone (don't know which models though).
It isn't tied to his number so I can easily take the new phone, since he already owns an old one which is more than enough for him
There's also the possibility to grab a more expensive phone such as the S2 with a major discount, and that would be the most interesting aspect

Yep the SGS2 costs around 400€ now and is a real bargain. I got it for 30€ though and yes it is on a 2 yr contract, but I just pay 10€ for the phone ... that makes a total of 270€ over two years And I pay 20€ for unlimited internet (speed cap after 500mb per month), unlimited messaging (international not included), unlimited free calls within my operator...

No.
I think this is the best smartphone for the money atm.
It has some tiny drawbacks like no flash on camera, but it still is a great phone.
Now I just need a plan to make my parents buy me one :hmmm:
S2 is great, but waaaay to expensive for me.
The deals you get in Cro with these T-Com bastards or other mobile providers are retarded imo. In the end you end up paying twice the cost of your mobile/smartphone in the course of two years... Not worth it imo...

Don't get the S+ btw, it has a better processor but a worse gpu. Plus community sucks ass. Get the Galaxy S instead. Its cheaper, and there is a better chance you will get ICS.

Galaxy S has S-LCD whereas S+ has SAMOLED... And I don't intend to play games on the phone...

Nope, they have a same screen.
If you intend to change the rom to a much better one I strongly advise the Galaxy S. If you don't intend doing that and you just want a plug and play phone then go with the S+. It will probably perform better, cpu wise.
But again, the dev support is huge for the S and you can make the phone perform even better than the S+. And there is already ICS alpha out.

But whatever, both are fantastic.

Does the S+ have the weird amoled setup from the galaxy S? Where you'd have twice the green sub pixels resulting in uneven vertical lines?
The Nokia N9 with meego has a similar weird amoled setup.
