I realize that some of my criticism is not really related to the Galaxy SII, but on the Android operating system, but after this is hardwired into the SII, applies to me: mitgehangen, not caught.
In the year, the supplied headphones are 2 times I broke down, both times due to an intermittent contact at much too thin cable.
Since then I have updated to Android Ice Cream Sandwich, the battery life on a little more than 6 (six!) Has fallen hours! Declaration according to battery information: None. I then made a reset to factory settings, as shown in the next flaw: you can just save between its contacts, all apps and all accounts are gone. But before you can reset the phone at all, you have to delete his Samsung account. Justification is not given.
Other disadvantages are:
* The radio works only with plugged headphones
* Unlocking with pattern does not work properly (there is disruption of the drawn lines, the pattern you often have to repeat several times)
* The App Store is slow, confusing, poorly categorized and uninformative
* If you activate GPS, it takes minutes, until one finally has its position
* You can not turn off that comes when the battery is fully charged the extremely annoying sound.
* The battery life was also without ICS ridiculously low (1-2 hours of internet surfing and the battery is almost empty); since ICS is the phone practically no longer be described as mobile phone, every few hours (without the mobile phone is used), the battery needs to be recharged.
I think it is not necessary to continue to address the benefits of the phone: When a car as standard switches into reverse at full speed, it is also irrelevant whether it has built a good conditioner.
The failure to purchase products from Samsung, I never do anyway: After my Samsung TV a comparable exhilarating performance delivers (see my review in this regard), my need for products of this company is sustainably met.
(Stark belated) Update August 2012: The already is known to almost everyone: the obviously by no QM process going Frickel-OS Android has found it appropriate to install an app called "Hotel Search HRS" and as a system app mark. It now needs to the mobile rooten (which means a loss of warranty) to uninstall this app.
