Speed Redefined for Faster Browsing and Access
You might want to grab hold of something, because the Samsung Galaxy S II is a whole new definition of fast. Engineered for 4G networks, the Galaxy S II does it all at mach speed—uploads, downloads, surfing, streaming. The immensely powerful C210 Dual Core processor gives you the velocity of two processors acting as one, and delivers an icy-smooth multimedia experience that makes everything you do, from web browsing to intense 3D gaming to accessing your favorite apps, as seamless as it is effortless.
A Dazzling Display Brings Content to Life
Get ready for the brightest, most colorful screen you've ever seen on a phone.* Thanks to Super AMOLED™ Plus technology, the Galaxy S II produces images that break all boundaries—luscious colors, impenetrable blacks and razor-sharp clarity from just about any viewing angle. It's no wonder we gave the Galaxy S II a supersized screen so that you wouldn't miss a thing.
Movies and games blaze to life, e-book text is ultra-sharp, photos and videos are rendered in stunning HD-like quality. The technology is so advanced that this ground-breaking display even cuts down on power usage, extending your battery charge so that you can do more, longer.
Personalized Customization Makes Navigation Easy
The Galaxy S II portfolio features an improved Samsung TouchWiz® user interface, providing superior multi-tasking, application management and customization. It also includes Live Panel, which provides a magazine-like widget view for immediate access to weather, social updates, email, news, photo gallery and more, all of which can be customized on the home screen. All of the Live Panel widgets can be positioned and re-sized to create rich, visual home screens and provide one-touch access to the information you use most.
Touchwiz UI also includes Quick Panel, which allows instant access to commonly used device settings like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and other key device features. The TouchWiz UI notification service on the lock screen notifies you to the number of unread or new text messages and missed calls.
Each Galaxy S II device features six-axis motion sensing using an accelerometer and gyroscope that support advanced touch screen gestures, including motion to zoom in on images, silence a ringing phone, and even move widgets on the menu screens.
Quick Tip: Navigate email and messaging with the enhanced, split view UI. Watch the demo.
