Nah...I just have a good friend at Samsung.

Sadly all he has right now is the 8.1 tab to play with...

And even.more sadly....you will be waiting a while for the nexus if you plan on att....there is no date yet and may very well be Jan Feb. ;(

He also claims they have no intentions on releasing the note in the US EDIT...Confirmed 11-3-11 that we will get the Note

I am excited to see what we can do with the skyrocket. If all else fails I will trade it in on the sgs2.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Maschil:
evidence please....................cant find any
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Search for Samsung Skyrocket.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Maschil:
found it......i dont know if this would qualify as the samsung infuse 4g 2..... even though it has 4.5 inch screen the galaxy s 2 had one originally so i think its rightly named samdung galaxy s 2 sky rocket.... and they changed the corners alittle (which i hate)......good to go for me... im sticking with the infuse!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
So today i walked into the store and saw the 4.5" galaxy s II. Now that the screen is as big as the infuse here on rogers, i would comsider getting it lol. But yeah speed was nice too but whatever phones do pretty much the same lol.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ALBGunner04:
Ever since I rooted my Infuse and put in CM7 (and removed ADWLauncher and flashed the stock GB launcher), I've noticed no lag at all. If this performance sticks when (or if) we get ICS, then I honestly wouldn't feel a need to upgrade at all. I don't right now. Really happy with my device as it's not limiting me. I wasn't happy with it before the root though, but now after the root, it's a whole new beast.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
Stock to stock same thing same speed on browsing and games like asphalt 6.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
Don't look at the reviews. I watched all the reviews that's why I got it. But in day to day use there is no difference. If you don't beleve me just go buy it. Thrill was more faster.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ap3604:
ignore this.

Galaxy S II X :O woaah
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
You are also comparing the UK version to the infuse. . Not the att US phone

And yeah. ...I did in hand comparisons to both the UK version and US version.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
Pretty sure that is the celox. US is slated to get it in Q4
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bluetoothless:
The SG2 albeit very tempting, thanks to developers like you Mikey, and GTG the only performance gain that would make me leave the INFUSE would be LTE with similar battery life. The HTC Holiday matches size and is LTE, but battery likely going to suck like HUNGERBOLT, CHARGEME, and BI more ION IC. We'll see. Hard to give up SUPER AMOLED PLUS THO!

P.S. Are you messing with 2.35 from SamsungFirmware?

Sent from recovery bed on PS3 browser
[Samsung Infuse 4G] netnerd:
yes! really!

i posted a pic comparing Infuse and galaxy S2 on the "big infuse comparison" thread, my eyes noticed the huge 4.5 screen different!

there is nothing wrong with galaxy S2, but i just not interested in att GS2 with small 4.27" !

i waiting for canada rogers GS2 lte with huge 4.5 just like infuse!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jpapa1086:
Doesn't the second processor get activated with ICS? I thought I read somewhere that was the case
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dxtra:
ATT US version 4.3" not 4.27" like the original SGS 2
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
I'm using it right now and it feels like a 4 inches like the Captivate and the Vibrant in hand, the Thrill 4G I had for a week has the same size screen as the GS 2 but it felt bigger.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] teiglin:
well, this is getting a bit silly since it's about personal preferences, but I guess we all have nothing better to do than argue about such things, particularly while some of us wait to pay contract-subsidized prices for SGSII. :)

For myself, I'm looking forward to "downgrading" the screen. While the infuse feels okay in my hand, it feels awkward when I'm talking on it--just too big for my face. The SGSII feels fine as well, but has a nicer size for its nominal primary use--that of a phone--in my opinion.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
Personal I'm holding out till next month for the Samsung note
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ap3604:
Same here, gotta find a way to import it while still having warranty in the U.S.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
Man I'm not convincing anyone just my point of view. If someone put a post like this before it might've helped some people not to get something that we already have. From Infuse to Galaxy s2 there is no update that is (WOW) none. I know it has Dual core which I don't see any difference while using the phone with all the app's in the market, that's all it has compairing to Infuse, but the infuse has bigger screen better sound and it even has a better Camera, and it's been out for a long time, I'm not even talking about that Samsung or At&t doesn't update the software so we want the GS2. Same thing going to happen in next 6 months when they come out with GS3. Look at the last Gen Galaxy S's they still don't have Gingerbread. Thanx to XDA that is all possible.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
You guys want me to bash the Infuse ? I can! Infuse is a garbage phone compairing to Galaxy S2. GS2 is awesome phone 10 times better with dual core it kills the Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
And if some people think I regret getting GS2 becouse of money? They are wrong I can put it to craigslist and sell it for $500 , what I loose $100 that's not even a tank of Gas these days.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
The 4.3" screen is an improvement considering they have the same resolution.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
My favorite thing about the Galaxy S II is the smoothness of scrolling in the browser, even when Flash content is loaded. If you don't notice the much improved scrolling smoothness in the browser, you probably need your eyes checked. Kind of like the people who didn't notice the 15 fps video recording we had for a while on Gingerbread roms.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
Yes maybe 3.5 is better.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] keitht:
I got the Infuse over the SGS II because I wanted the 4.5" screen and better sound from headset (Voodoo Sound) since I use my phone for music in my car. The dual core is not a big deal right now since most apps are not even taking advantage of it.

I will look at the SGS III or anything else that comes with Ice Cream Sandwich at the beginning of the year with better screen resolution in a 4.5" size.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
And the infuse 4g is not smooth? Try a different browser.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Nope. Tried pretty much every browser out there. Opera Mobile is the only browser that is mostly smooth on the Infuse, but it still gets choppy if you leave Flash enabled. I still prefer the stock browser on the GS2 to Opera Mobile on the Infuse. And browsing is very important to me. One of the main things I do on my phones.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] shiftylock:
Honestly I was wondering how well the SGSII performed. I remember when the atrix came out and people were saying it was just as slow as other high end android phones out there. Thank you for the mini review!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dxtra:
Dude I'm looking at your posts and you created a thread that goes like this.

""

""

People no need to argue with this guy. An please show me proof you own SGS2
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dxtra:
Also you reply to the very same thread you created goes like this

"

"

You definitely contradicting your self. And we all know the infuse 4g it's a great phone but no match to the SGS2. it's smoother all around with no type of lag no matter what you do to it. Plus the front facing camera it's 2mp over 1.3mp on the infuse. Let's not forget the much improve Touchwiz 4
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
Put a 2.3.4 and new touchwiz 4 and see yourself. If Samsung updated the Infuse to gingerbread with the new touchwiz in the reviews you will see its same they are compairing TouchWiz3 to ToucWiz 4 that's the launcher that is fast ant it makes it fell its faster then Infuse. Put a Adw or Launcher Pro on both and there is no difference man.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] samomamo:
People no need to argue with this guy. An please show me proof you own SGS2
[Samsung Infuse 4G] netnerd:
so you want to trade your big screen 1080p hdtv for my 32" 1080p HDTV? my 32" is a improvemont considering they have the same resolution.

---------- Post added at 09:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ----------

and if you can't see the huge 4.5 screen difference from 4.3 phone, you need to get your eyes checked!

I rather have a single core 4.5 phone than a dual core with small 4.3.

but if both phones have the same screen size, I will pick the dual core.

this is why I waiting Canada telus or rogers gs2 with huge 4.5!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
That's funny. Actually my eyes are just fine, thus I don't need a big ass 4.5 inch screen. I would much rather have better performance than a .2 inch larger screen. To each his own.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] docodine:
I would rather have better performance and a 5.3" screen!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
Lol

.......
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
I'd rather have better performance and pixels smaller than a nickel.

Actually, yes. the 32" is an improvement. Assuming you're sitting at the same distance, of course. The larger screen sizes are for viewing further away. Ever go up close to a big screen? Looks like ****. No one sits that close, so it's okay.

The 4.5" and 4.3" screen will be used in the same manner and at the same distance. So higher resolution and ease of use wins.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
LOL is this turning into an argue thread ???
[Samsung Infuse 4G] deathpulse:
Same here. SG 2 = not worth the upgrade if it even IS an "upgrade". Note will clearly be better than both.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nascasho:
Different strokes for different folks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nicoled985:
Love these threads because they have raw opinions and debates and i can weigh my options
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
Ditto

.....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ap3604:
At first I didn't believe the OP when he said the Infuse was just as fast. I was thinking "Cmon man dual cores!!!" but then I found the following two videos by smartphoneenvy that give a great, really thorough walkthrough comparison of the two phones side by side:

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwb02Pwgxgw&feature=channel_video_title

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5zGa5jMf5o&feature=relmfu

You can see the Infuse more than holds it own against the SGS II and in fact does some things, such as loading youtube videos, faster :eek:

That sealed the decision for me... I'm getting an Infuse tomorrow :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Lol yes, it loaded two out of three YouTube videos a fraction of a second faster. Everything else was worse on the Infuse. The GS2 blew it away in Quadrant, loaded every app quicker, and got a GPS lock quicker. The reviewer said the screen looks better on the GS2 because of the higher pixel density. The GS2 has Gingerbread and the much improved TouchWiz 4.0 out of the box. The GS2 has a better front facing camera. The GS2 does 1080p recording. The GS2 doesn't need a lagfix to run decently because it already uses ext4 stock. The Infuse gets slower and slower over time if you leave it stock because of its crappy rfs file system. Flash content doesn't bog down the GS2 like it does the Infuse.

Seriously, I'm trying to help you here. If you already have an Infuse, maybe this didn't seem like a worthy upgrade to you, but do not choose the Infuse over the GS2 if you are buying a new phone now.

Another point... The GS2 will have massively better developer support than the Infuse has. I will be selling my Infuse soon, but I do want to make one last ROM based on Att official Gingerbread first. LinuxBozo and MikeyMike may well be leaving too.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] netnerd:
i chose infuse over GS2 with 4.27" (that looks like 4 inches!).

to me, 4.5 first, then dual core.

or dual core 4.5 then single core 4.5
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Focustom:
Noooooo! You guys are leaving us? I know you must move on to bigger and better things but I love your work. I'm running Infused with froyo right now and its an amazing rom. I have been excitedly waiting for the official gingerbread rom. I love my infuse, I had an inspire and HATED it, and really want to hang onto it for a while. You had mentioned about over time the file system sucks. Can you maybe pm me with info on that or post here so others know too? I am more than happy to make a donation or two for your continued work. I really love that you and the devs do this for us. Electronics and customization are my life, engineering student, and your work helps keep my sanity lol.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
That's weird.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Focustom:
Lol sarcasm?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
No lol, that really is weird. I've kept the Inspire longer than any other device I've had.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Focustom:
Haha I couldn't handle the horrible battery life. I was getting lag and crap. I could have reflashed another rom but I just couldn't handle battery crap haha. I just got annoyed more and more
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ap3604:
Thanks gtg. Great to get good information from an experienced developer :)

Edit: Tried out the Infuse and I like it but not enough to justify a two year contract. With tax the Infuse came out to $65 ($20 + $45 tax) from Bestbuy so I think I'll just wait a few months for the Att SGS II to come down to $99 tax free on Amazon Wireless. An extra $35 would be more than worth it for the SGS II vs the Infuse at $65.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] J101:
If the SGS2 had better sound quality reviews (it will never have voodoo sound, different chip) I'd be looking to switch as well.

I've held the ATT SGS2 with a dev build 2.3.5 running - incredibly smooth experience and fits perfectly in the hand.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bluetoothless:
I am glad to hear you're committed to producing a solid at&t GB rom before leaving.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] trdsnow:
To be honest, I am probably going to trade my infuse in for galaxy sII as well. The development and support for this phone is lacking big time. Especially now that we hear the few good developers we have are going to leave.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
It's so odd for me. When I was using captivate I definitley needed a Tom because of the many flaws with that. But man I'm loving infuse large screen and fast. I haven't even bothered to put a Rom on this.

However above poster is right, development is trés slow.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] spiritcrusher33:
I agree even stock the infuse has been a pleasure to use.. I switch between my stock infuse and my rooted atrix. And for audio and video the infuse rocks. Everything else i use the atrix. Mainly worried bout roms when running htc with sense.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rob1216:
Lately I've been contemplating selling my infuse on Ebay to buy sgs 2 when att releases it, but its a tough choice cause infuse is running so smooth on infused gb using adw ex don't know if I would notice a big enough difference in day to day use. Only bad thing with infuse is Dev support is horrible compared to sgs2, I came from a captivate which had twice as many roms. Well I guess I'll wait and see, if gtg leaves the infuse then we're screwed lol. If I had to choose between the 2 I would get an sgs 2 but if you already own a infuse don't know if its worth it IMO
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
Same.

But at some point you have to just say the hell with it and move one.

The Captivate's "October Froyo" came out the last week of February.

Not at the "hell with it" point yet.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] eclypse3demons:
My wife has the infuse and I have the Atrix and I like it alot, its not quite as nice but the screen alone is worth it, the SG II you have to take stock in what it is, the current Android os does not make very good use of the dual core technology at the present time, however it is coming and when it does you will see a decent amount of difference in performance between the SG II and the Infuse due to the dual core cpu. (I believe Android 3.4 is supposed to actually make use of dual cores).

There is nothing wrong with buying something that is future proof even if you do not see the benefits right away. This is not a case of HD DVD vs Blueray DVD where HD is obsolete, just wait it out.

As far as screen and system quality those are based on your own taste =)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
I've been really on the fence... I really like the power efficiency of the Infuse and the large screen. I also don't like buying non-subsidized phones.

I wasn't worrying too much about gtg going to the Thrill after seeing all of the battery drain problems they're having. Battery drain is a ***** to debug and at least we didn't have any horrible battery drain problems when stock.

But if both gtg and LB leave - I'll probably jump ship for the GS2. I just don't have the skills to keep things going on my own - I can do kernelspace but I can't do userland like gtg and LB can.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
I dont know what he did with his thriller rom bit i get 20 hours on my Thrill now.

Mine developed a weird sd card issue though so it is going back tomorrow.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] digthemlows:
I love this phone, but if I really can get $300+ for the infuse I'll follow the developers too. We'll see.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] netnerd:
go check samsung site, it listed att galaxy s2 as 4.27" (that looks like 4 inches!) just like the europe/uk version!

i just cant go back to phone with screen less than 4.5 !

if it' not 4.5, i'm not interested!

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I777ZKAATT
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
How much difference is there really in .03 inches.....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
I'm a curmudgeon who resists change. I'll probably not go anywhere.. unless someone happens to donate an SGS2 of course.. then maybe we'll talk.. ;-)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
it's my birthday saterday and the att gs2 releases Sunday. I get my overtime pay Friday. but ill see if I can resist. I have no issues with the infuse cept the screen is a little to wide. it might be best to wait till Samsung has something with qhd resolution or better in 3.8-4.3 inches.

I don't think id buy a different brand. I'm becoming a Samsung fanboy. I like the thinness of Samsung devices and the extreme contrast of the screen. the lack of firmware signing or nand locking make it easy for beginners in Rom editing and the fit and Finnish is way better than LG.

I looked at the thrill and its kinda lame. it is quick enough till you open the camera. the resolution in the 3d view is too low so you see lines. 3d gaming is over rated. I tried nova and It looks cool but is more distracting than impressive it is a drain on your eyes more. the evo 3d pulled it off better due to better resolution and preforms great but the 3d is definately not my thing.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Fit and finish of my Thrill is better than my Infuse. No question.

And 3D on the EVO 3D hurts my eyes, but 3D on the Thrill doesn't.

To each his own I guess.

If the Thrill had better battery life, more than 512MB of ram, and a better UI theme I think it would give the GS II a real run for its money. I like it. Still probably going S II though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dxtra:
I going to have to deal with the smaller screen. AT&T never do nothing right, first was the last carrier to get a good android phone and now they never go all out like the other carriers do. Just seen the SGS2 for t-mobile, 1.5 dual core with a 4.52 to screen. wow. Also the new HTC Amaze looks nice. Tempting. Anyways no more Infuse 4g for me, sold. Comes sunday I'll be the first one in line. Moving on to better things.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] ticobiker:
I know the following comment could not has relation to this topic!

But I went from Dell Streak 5 to motorola photon 4.3" and dudes I'm really missing the screen!

The dell was a great phone, of course noticed the performance with the photon loading games and browsing but not that much!

I have to replace the photon cause of that crappy thing of restarting by it self thats why I am here in this topic since I am considering the infuse as a replacement option!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
The only half decent phone Motorola makes IMO is the Droid Bionic. Every other dual core Motorola phone I've used, including the Photon, feels choppy as hell due to poor software optimization mostly and possibly the mediocrity of Tegra 2. The Bionic has an OMAP4 and a newer, more optimized version of Blur than their other phones, so it actually feels pretty smooth.

Anyways, that's why you didn't notice much of a performance difference coming from your Streak.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nv83:
Has anyone done an actual real world sound comparison between infuse and gs2? For example using the earbuds that come with the infuse and listening to various songs and vids...Tried searching to no avail.

I use my infuse to watch a lot of movies/tv shows and listen to music a lot so the screen difference and sound chip are important to me..but are they important as I think they are? That's what I'd like to find out.

These SGS2 variants with the 4.5"+ screens have definitely got my attention though!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lieutenantsword:
The GS2 that you're using vs. the Infuse:

Is the GS2 rooted/custom ROM, or stock?

Same question for the Infuse.

I've been looking forward to the GS2, but I'm very happy with the Infuse, so now (thank you very much), I'm conflicted. I'd be very interested in seeing side-by-side comparisons on stock and rooted/rom models so I could at least make an informed decision.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Here's a comparison chart I made a long time ago. Ignore the Captivate.

*.5 points for yellow (not the worst, but not the best)

*1 point for green (the best)

I may drop by a Sprint store with my headphones and do a bit of music listening.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
The GSII has a SiRF StarIV???

DAMN.

That makes it FAR more tempting.

Although some research indicates that the GSD4t variant for mobile phones might be crippled in the same manner as so many other "AGPS" solutions - unable to run well standalone. So newer version of the Star is apparently not necessarily better. Smartphone "optimizations" probably mean "cost-reduced crippling so the damn thing can't lock without network crutches" like it means for Qualcomm gpsOne and prior Samsung GPS implementations.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
Am I the only person that isn't blown away the the Infuse/SGS sound quality? Even with Voodoo Sound. It sounds muddy. I turned the bass down a bit and it's better, but still, nothing I'd cry myself to sleep over losing.

What am I, chopped liver? :(

Of course it will. Every Nexus gets good dev support.
