Samsung Galaxy S II T989 - user opinions and reviews

HTC is like a well-styled, tasteful Audi. Sammie is like a functional plain Mercedes. iPhone is a smooth, uncustomizable Lexus. Can't here the engine or choose gears. Sammie is more a BMW. You can choose your own gears and hear the engine working.
