Release Date/Price Speculation/Hopes

[BitHeroes]

What do you guys think this sucker will cost, and when?

I think ?599, first week in March.

Hopefully it costs less/comes sooner, but I doubt it

So what is going on here is a completely, unlocked, unbranded device that will work on the 850 band? If so, I'm on board

It appears that is the case. Atrix vs unlocked S2 is a tough one.

should be a no brainer the samsung blows the atrix away practically.

Does anyone thing it will be released in N. America in March? Or is the consensus that it will be available in Europe in March?

International version for March.

The US carriers have to squeeze their little apps on there and customize the physical look of the phone so their version is different. That takes some time lol.

Someone really hates US carriers.

Im hoping for a summer release for this on VZW but I expect it to mirror the release dates for the s1

 

[andrew53517]

I expect T-mobile or ATT to pick it up end of March early April..

US Release Date?

When will this thing come to the U.S. ??

 

[grayfox99]

No date yet but most seem to think end of March, but i'm hoping a bit sooner, especially since it's launching this month in Europe.

thanks

I wonder when will Sprint and other carriers get it?

 

[cesarb]

For real... Im willing to return my Nexus S for this phone. Hopefully its next month...

Sad in Canada

Well I am waiting for this for eagerly - but I am not getting my hopes up for anything soon here in Canada. With the first Galaxy S in the U.S. it was released late June early July... In Canada we got ours late Oct. due to the shortage of Amoled Screens. So instead of short listing North America Samsung instead said screw you Canada and left us dry. Hopefully not another repeat of that.

Definitely this. I was going for the whole Atrix bundle until it was priced at 500 with the dock and required a tethering plan; that killed it for me.

However im loving the Galaxy S 2 and will definitely upgrade to this phone.

 

[Itsperfecto]

Seems like a fantastic phone. Loved my galaxy s and nexus s. Now the screen the size of the evo, gingerbread, dual core and super amoeled plus! I'm excited. The only problem......

Touchwiz. #bummer
As long as there are custom roms, I'll get this phone

I read often that the sgs2 will be released in Europe first, good for me BUT is there any expectation when this will happen?
I mean, they are showing the kick ass android device for this year and there is no really release date announced.
Are they trying to torture us?

There's no way I could wait for July to come around. For T-Mo, it better be here by late March/ early April. Maybe we'll learn something at CTIA. When is that again?
