The Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 is the much anticipated successor to the hugely successful Galaxy S I9000. The S2 runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS which brings in quite a few useful upgrades over the Froyo, including an improved copy/paste function, revamped App Manger and more spaced-out keyboard. Samsung has overlayed the stock Android interface with its TouchWiz 4.0 UI that brings in 3 new hubs and a few aesthetic enhancements.
The 4.3 inch Super AMOLED Plus display on the Galaxy S2 I9100packs 50% extra subpixels compared to the standard Super AMOLED display on the Galaxy I9000. This translates to brilliant color rendering, enhanced contrast ratios, improved sunlight legibility and smoother video playback.
The Galaxy S2 is powered by a 1.2 GHz Dual core processor that renders the phone extremely quick and one of the fastest in the smartphone realm. The faster core speeds allows the I9100 to deliver high-speed multitasking, faster web page loading, and a slicker UI experience. The enhanced encoding/decoding ability of the phone supports smoother full HD 1080p video playback and enhanced HD gaming .
The 8 megapixel camera on the Galaxy I9100 supports full HD video recording at 1080p resolution and is flanked by a Dual LED flash. There is also a front facing 2 megapixel camera for video calls. Samsung has thrown in plenty of manual controls like ISO adjust, choice of three metering and multiple white balance options. Other camera features include Smile Detect, Panorama, Face Detect and a Macro Mode.
Design
The Samsung Galaxy I9100 sports an ultra thin 8.49 mm chassis with smooth curved edges. The S2 features a unique Hyperskin mesh back panel which gives added grip and prevents the phone from heating up during extended calls. Measuring 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5 mm, the Galaxy S2 I9100 is a fairly big device but the weight factor of 116 g renders it easily portable.
The WVGA display on the Galaxy I9100 packs 480 x 800 pixels and supports 16 million colors. Apart from the usual triad of accelerometer, proximity and light sensors, the Galaxy S2 I9100 features magnetic and gyroscope sensors that detect dynamic hand and arm movement to deliver an enhanced gaming experience.
Battery and Storage
Despite its slim form factor, Samsung has managed to cram an impressive 1650 mAh battery into the Galaxy S2. The Lithium Ion battery can go unplugged for up to 18.6 hrs minutes on 2G and up to 8.6 hrs on 3G networks. The Galaxy S2 I9100 comes with 16 GB of internal memory and supports up to 32 GB microSD cards.

The Galaxy S2 features an intuitive Voice Command feature that allows hands-free execution of all major functions like calls, texting, launching apps and music control with the ease of a voice command.
The S2 is preloaded with the Readers Hub app which gains you access to over 2 million book titles and 2,500 magazines in 16 different languages. The Social Hub integrates various social networks like Facebook, Orkut and Twitter into a single feed. The Galaxy I9100 can organize and synchronise contacts from multiple networks into a single streamlined phone book.
