Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch Review

If you're wedded to Sprint and need a new phone, or are moving to Sprint, you have several excellent options. If you don't care about the operating system, then the HTC EVO 3D, the Motorola Photon 4G, the iPhone 4S, and the GSII are all incredibly capable devices.
Pros:
  • Gorgeous Super AMOLED Plus display
  • Incredibly light
  • Very good battery life
  • Screaming fast processor
Cons:
  • Resolution is low for such a large screen
  • TouchWiz is uninspiring

Samsung Galaxy S II
