Seriously.... This phone? LEGIT!!! Kies Air is really sexy, as is the Super Amoled Screen, not to mention battery life! I bought the Epic 4G back in April, switched to 3VO in June and now I'm rockin the Epic Touch 4G! I'm telling you, this phone is probably going to stay in my pocket for quite some time!

This post makes me wish I could switch to Sprint. I know Verizon is getting some flavor of GS2, but it's still in rumor mode, so it's hard to get excited about.

I finally got around to playing with the camera today, and the amount of features you can access is mindboggling. The coolest feature is that you can have shortcuts to your 4 most used features to the dock area (I have Flash, Picture mode, Focus, and Scene). And it has a macro mode that works really well. The macro mode is really helpful for work -- if I need to take a picture of a serial number or MAC address from device, macro mode is perfect for the job.

And even though there is no shutter button, the ET has a double detent shutter -- touch and hold to fix focus and exposure, then let go to take the picture with practically zero lag. This is the touch equivalent of a two step shutter.

Me too. I love how well it is built. All my Motorola devices had light leaks! Even my Bionic. If I held my Bionic at an angle, the upper left screen let light through from the back lit panel, and as always, the bottom rim by the buttons would to (mind you these are extreme viewing angles, and under normal viewing, the Bionic had no light leaks, finally moto "almost.") The Sammy has ZERO light leaks, and that helps the screen look so brilliant no matter the light or angle.

Verizon wont let my family members in on unlimited data, so I said goodby! I am loving Sprint, and little things are showing that make me happy. I love being able to remove bloat without having to destroy my warranty. I am on Sprints hotspot and data is fast here, and reliable (more so that the 5 times I had to reboot the Bionic to restore data at school with no avail)

Even if a phone comes out with 2millimeters more screen and .300Mhz more processes or a few more pixels I could so care less you know? This phone makes me so happy. The GPU acceleration is out of this world smooth on the web with flash. I love how flash stays steady rolling, while I am scrolling ha ha lmao! Yup, this will keep me content for quite some time, and definitely through this holiday season!

This is such a great featured phone but Samsung had to fail us on the lone major feature that we use the "smartphone" for.....SIGNAL STRENGHT....The phone is only fast as its internet connection as almost 90% of applications use the internet. It is a widely known and accepted problem that this particular device is an EPIC FAIL when it comes to gaining a usuable signal that is strong. Sprint has acknowledged the problem and is supposedly coming up with a "fix" for this. My hopes are that it can be fixed through an update and this is not the fault of Samsung's decision to use the exact same antennas that the Nexus 4g had in order to save on cost. If the phone is fixed through software then I can declare it a great product, however, as it stands it is a major FAIL!!

G'day,
I am glad to join this worthy group of such knowledgeable users who are of such a keen and emphatic nature! :))
I have used the HTC Desire for the last year and just upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic (Sprint) and am wondering if other owners of the phone could answer some questions regarding the discovery of the IMEI. The usual approach is to input *#06# but I understand that only the MEID appears on this phone after the key input. Could someone confirm a key input on this particular model as my purpose would be to unlock the phone due to my travels.
Thanks to any help!!
Cheers!
