Ughhhh really want to upgrade my phone ! skyrocket seems to have better spec? 1.5Ghz! or wait for Nexus which is taking F!@#$@ forever!. this new S2 seems better?
 
Just remember, there will always be a better phone coming. Thats the way technology works. Find whats best for you.
 
I believe the Skyrocket is running a Snapdragon processor so the one in the Galaxy Nexus is still better. The Skyrocket is out right now on AT&Ts lte network. I played with it at the store yesterday and it was very nice and really thin. I did not get to test the network because it was not working or the floor model had some issues.
 
If you don't live in an LTE area or feel like your current 4G speeds are more than fast enough, I would recommend getting the regular SII and not the Skyrocket. Even though the Skyrocket has a 1.5 Ghz processor, because it's a snapdragon and not an Exynos it does have a tiny bit of slow down. The original S2 is just a bit faster. Just throwing that out there for anyone who is deciding on these phones right now.

Also, if you are on ATT like I am. I just have a feeling that we won't be seeing the Galaxy Nexus on ATT for a while, if at all. If you don't mind importing the phone and paying about $700 then great! I would get the Nexus :)
 
even tho att LTE is in like 3 spots right now, their 3.5G is fairly fast. It blows verizon 3G out of the water.
