The Samsung Galaxy S2 is the undisputed Juggernaut of smartphones, stuffed full of raw, unadulterated power and more cutting-edge tech than even the most dedicated evil genius can wish for. Its specifications are enough to cause lesser mobiles to flee in terror, and we’re going to tell you why it’s the must-have Android handset for 2011. Grab your boots to quake in, and read on.
Packs a punch
Like a highly-trained super agent, the Samsung Galaxy S 2 was built to be the very best. This is no entry-level proposition with middle-of-the-road specs and modest aspirations of stardom. It’s a phone which has its sights set on the top, and with the type of technological muscle it’s packing, we wouldn’t like to argue.
With a super-quick 1GHz dual-core processor aided by an amazing 1GB of RAM (that’s practically twice what rival phones can muster), the Samsung Galaxy S 2 means business and is taking no prisoners. Such terrifying power means it chews up applications for breakfast – no matter what kind of multi-tasking mayhem you throw in its path, this unstoppable powerhouse barely breaks a sweat. Gaming, surfing the web or just watching high quality videos on YouTube – it’s all blissfully achievable with this amazing piece of tech.
Check list of awesome
Of course, even the greatest superhero knows that you can’t afford to have any weaknesses. With such raw strength under the hood you might expect the Samsung Galaxy S 2 to have an Achilles heel somewhere, but that simply isn’t the case.
The 4.3-inch screen is the biggest Super AMOLED Plus display on any mobile phone. This screen technology has been concocted by Samsung’s own team of crack scientists and offers amazing colour definition, stunning brightness and arresting contrast – even when viewed in direct sunlight. Naturally, it uses capacitive tech to ensure the most responsive and accurate fingertip control available.
If you’re a budding Peter Parker and want to snap some photos worthy of publication in the Daily Bugle then the Samsung Galaxy S 2’s 8-megapixel camera is certainly going to get your spider senses tingling. It’s also capable of shooting 1080p full high definition video – it’s one of the only multimedia mobiles on the market right now capable of this pixel packed feat.
Everything but the kitchen sink
The list of positives doesn’t end there, though. You can use the phone’s Mobile High Definition Link port to both charge its battery and send video and images to a compatible television set, effectively transforming the Samsung Galaxy S 2 into a portable media centre. DLNA support means you can also do this wirelessly, streaming video over the air straight to a compatible flatscreen or set top box.
Of course all of this content is meaningless if you can’t store it, and the Samsung Galaxy S 2 fortunately comes in 16GB and 32GB variants. 16GB is enough space for a plentiful 4,000 songs, while the larger version ups that total to 8,000. That space can also be used to store the latest 3D games such as Fruit Ninja and Asphalt Adrenaline 6, turning the Galaxy S 2 into a mobile arcade to fill your leisure time in-between busting the skulls of super criminals.
There’s very little that the Samsung Galaxy S 2 isn’t capable of, and its impressive list of talents makes it the undisputed strongman of the Android universe. It’s faster than a speeding bullet, stronger than Superman and more intelligent than Lex Luther – a hero that makes other smartphones look decidedly ordinary.
