Should I get this phone?

[chocobosandwich]

Oh great, now rumors of an iPhone 4 with 4" screen. I gotta watch out for that one too.

This is getting on my nerves now....

I like the UI on the LG 2X...yea it looks like a combo of Touchwiz and Sense UI..I still like it.

I like the updated Touchwiz. I liked the old one too. All these new dual core phones are looking very nice, even with some of the reviews showing and mentioning negative things about general use. I'm sure any kinks in most of the phones can get worked out with an update or 2.

I like the updated Sense UI, but I'm not feeling any of their upcoming phones.

It might be so hard for me to decide what to get...I wont get anything til next year..lol

Regards changing the lockscreen - its not true that only custom ROMs can do this. Check out Widgetlocker in the Market.

Yes but the update that allows you to change the lockscreen hasn't arrived despite being promised a long time ago.

How do you know it won't require root access?

Bottom line is: regardless of all these specs of the SGS2 and the LG 2x or other dual core phones, the network the phone will be on is the most important. Will the phone drop calls? Will the carrier add unnecessary apps to eat up space on the phone? Will u get good tech support and quick updates from carrier? I will prefer answers/debates/testing about these questions than talking about benchmarks or apps. I will wait as few months after release of these phones to do more research about these phones and their carriers.

Samsung GT-I9103 a Tegra 2 Powerhouse | Android Phone Fans

That's interesting development indeed. I think they still need a bit more time to finish the drivers for Exynos and are using Tegra 2 as back up processor just in case.
Another thing is that I read Samsung is shipping massive number of processors to Apple (A4 and new A5 this year), so their processor line might not have capacity to produce enough number of Exynos for Galaxy S2 this year.

I'm glad I have to wait till May to decide on a new phone.

I have like 5 gameloft games so the games hub will come in handy. Anyone know how to go about transferring them to new phone?

 

[Tennis]

Oh and any thoughts about having to pay for tgr books and music that are in the hubs?

I'm assuming you'll have to pay.

Does anyone have a clue of what the live wallpaper is called??

I quite like it.

I just hope tegra 2 games work with exynos...

Why wouldn't they? May not be fully optimized, but should be fully compatible. It is all Android in the end.

Well the same way some powervr games didn't or don't work on hummingbird processors, or some games are qualcomm only..

Also the fact that they say "tegra optimised".

I'm sure they will, you just never know though!
