Hey guys
Im new here. I am looking to buy SGS2 for about 26k. The problem however here(in India) is that the sellers say that they cannot distinguish between 9100 and 9100G, the model could be either of these..so its kind of a gamble, i could either get 9100 or 9100G.. :|
Now i researched quite a bit and have seen few negative reviews bout 9100G..that processor and gpu are inferior, processor doesnt reach its maximum limit(clocked at 1.008 ghz), and performance is slightly lower than original 9100..
So basically i just want to ask..whether the performance of 9100G is really that inferior, quite noticable in demanding apps? I mean i want to do loads of multitasking, heavy gaming etc.and will buying 9100G for 26k be worth?
Or i could buy some other mobile like htc evo 3d or motorola atrix 2 for lesser price and get similar performance to 9100g?
please do answer asap, im really eager to buy the mobile
thanks a lot
In retroperspective, I wouldn't buy the I9100G because of all the reasons you mentioned (inferior gpu, less developement).
You can however distinguish the G from the normal I9100 on boot (it says I9100G). It is also specified on the box.
One last thing - the cpu is limited to 1GHz but you can overclock it to the intended speed without worry.

Dude it is specified on the box...at the bottom width wise side... but if you want i9100 you can buy from flipcart.com... they wont **** with customers and wese bhi no G model on that site

you started a thread in development area to ask about S2??????common man there is a Q n A area, there is an FB page, there is GOOGLE yet of all the places you choose a development area????
For me G version is the best, all games are working perfectly on my G and i heard some games arent working for 9100. But its up to you to decide.
The 3d performance is better on the g and long battery life and less overheated ...

Only people who have G's say you should buy G's.
DON'T BUY IT !!
I have the regular i9100 but i create rom's etc for the i9100G (mainly for the Israeli community). There is little choice as far as Rom's, Mod's and Kernel's go.
The regular i9100/i9100T is a much better idea.
And as for performance at battery life, Okey the G has slightly mod battery life but its slower so no wonder.
I put a LPQ g VS an LPQ i9100 and the regular was definitely faster.
from what i know, i could tell you that, you have done the right research, and "yoelsd" have mentioned it correctly. I have both G and non-G version, G version specs is not really that good.
A. Its clocked at 1.2 ghz not 1 ghz
B.Yes less roms r there but CM9 got ported no big difference in performance cuz i m running gta3 on i9100g and mc3 the games look awesome and highly detailes so no big difference b/w the 2 models imo

Since the ICS update I have a higher score for the CPU in AnTuTu that I had in GB. It also always show 1.2 GHz now (it used to show 800 Mhz or 1008 Mhz).
What you can read about the CPU performance is no longer true.

it all depends on the user who is going to use it, what are the usage and how he is going to use it. the difference between a non-g version and a g version is the hardware, overall there isnt too much of the difference in it. So it all depends on u, cheers!!
For me there's another important difference:
Sound quality.
the Yamaha DAC used on I9100 it's not good as the one in OMAP processor.
I'm an audiophile.
in which age your now G never stops on 1.08 GHz its boosted to 1.2 GHz
If u want to get an 'S2', u should get the non-g. Take a look at the non-g forum u will see a big different, u will have a lot roms, kernels, ... and more support from devs.
If u can't buy the non-g then go buy anyphone u want EXCEPT the s2g.
U should choose the phone that got support from devs.

Dont be so negative on the 'g' . in fact its doing quiet well except lack of devs support. Its quiet fast and smooth ( i can say that its definitely faster than galaxy ace because i have one ). I like to play with phone so the ' ace ' is better because it have a lot of devs support.
BUT, if i have chance i will try to buy a non-g.

Or buy another S2 to make this topic relevant in this forum
I would say s3 just upgraded from s2 also used hox s3 would be better but again that's my choice go to a shop and try running both
bought s3 well not much of a difference apart from screen battery and some software changes. Close the thread please

The Galaxy S2 is as fast as the S3 at stock speeds and as fast or faster than the HTC One X if overclocked scoring around 5000 in quadrant, I think the S2 is a better phone than the other two.

if u like the taste of sense 4.0 then go for the ONE X
in my opinion the S3 is better because both have the same HW specs but samsung devices are more customizable than HTC ones

Im confused between I9100 and Motorola Atrix 4G
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3709&idPhone2=3621
I dont care about screen size or performance as both is dual-core or battery
All i care is the Solid Build cause i considered to be a bad user and its very likely to drop the phone and i want a phone can handle a bad Handler
I already have Motorola Defy but i want i a better performance and a phone equiped with 1GB ram and dual-core cpu

Well based on the link you gave, the s2 is a better device. But if I was you, I would go to the dev section of both devices and see which one is better.
But if I was choosing, I would get the s2

consider this...
With whatever phone you buy you need to remember it is a PHONE... it will break.. the i9100 is an EPIC phone and was my best phone purchase to date.... Motorola builds a damn strong phone... BUT I promise you will enjoy the i9100 more.. it is one of the most developed phones on xda and has an awesome following.. you will get better OS support and faster releases... get the i9100, invest in a nice case.., root it, and flash Resurrection Remix Rom... you will be a happy camper..

I highly appreciate your help and feel grateful
Im also feels good towards S2 but i wait for Atrix Opinions as you advised ,
Honestly Motorola Defy is the STRONGEST phone ever bought , simply life proof and if you want to break it ,you wont have success easily.

Thanks for all help attempts
I have both phones and the s2 is way way better than the atrix 4g if not only because of the screen. I also tested both devices running cm10 tho you still don't have a proper camera or hw accel on the atrix.
now about the build quality, I always loved Motorola for this and the s2 feels like it could break with anything but with a good case and some care, you would be safe.
All in all, I would go for the s2

Sorry if this has already been posted or is in the wrong section i am new to the forums.
Okay i recently got into rooting and putting custom roms on my phone right now i have an HTC evo 4g.
But i am eligable for an upgrade with sprint i have been waiting for a while because i knew there would be an amazing phone to be released soon enough and i am starting to think the SIII.
Is this phone worth it? I would only be paying 250$ for the 32gb and 199$ for the 16gb with my upgrade.
is there any other phones that are up there with the galaxy s3 on sprints network? Or should i just go and get this phone.
is it alot faster then the s2? also will i be able to put jellybean on it if i was to get it? is there a stable release out.
Yes. Go get this phone.
Is the best currently available.

Buy the phone if you want it. It's a great phone but it may not suit your needs. Check it the specs and compare it with other phones you can choose from .
Your s3 model won't be the international version, it will be the dial core version so check their forum to see their development.

The dual core GS3 has documented and developer-friendly Qualcomm = definitely worth buying.
S3 is easily the best phone I have ever owned (and I have owned a great many top-spec phones).
That said I preferred the S2 in terms of size and weight. But the S3 has a higher quality screen and considerably better battery life
Oooh i see now the I9300 is the quad core version which is not in the US
The US version is dual core.
Okay how big is the difference in speed between the two?

Should be similar on stock touchwiz. The dual core one is lightyears ahead of the Exynos one, though, when it comes to custom AOSP roms. Why? Well, just ask @codeworkz ^^

Thank you very much.
Just wanted to add my opinion to this one as I'm sick of all the exnos bashing.
Just because cm devs can't get it to work properly does not mean it's bad. It's the best version and I've never ever used a ti Omap or Qualcomm based phone that wasn't **** and dont get me started on cm roms on phones as from desire onwards I've never encountered a cm version worth installing as they aren't worth it. Stock android has always been and always will be lacking and ugly no matter how many cookie cutter mods you implement like volume button wake which is old old old.
Do yourself a favour and stick to Samsung based roms and save the headache and the laughs from people who see your stock android device and the pictures that come off the aosp camera among other things.
The SG III is way better value than the iphone 5.
If you want something "worth buying", you are the only one who can actually decide on this.. because it may/may not suit you. So i suggest you search and gather info for yourself so you get accurate infos
I do not mean to flame or anything, just a mini-suggestion. Hopefully this will help you in your decision
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I am surprised that no one said that you should wait for the Note 2 or the new Nexus or the next Galaxy S x, where x>3. There will always be better, but when you actually start using the phone you see that you don't need anything more, except less call log lag
It is that great that I don't even have the urge to root it right now and I rooted and reflashed everything android I had before.
As much as I love my Galaxy Nexus overall, I still can't get over how difficult one-handed operation is (mostly the fact that I can't touch all four corners of the screen without either shifting my grip or the phone in some major way). Having the newest version of Android is both a blessing and a curse too (susceptible to new bugs/issues and app incompatibilities).
Being able to get a brand-new dual-core phone for $200 is certainly tempting, too; the Sola and P don't appeal to me for a number of reasons, price included. Anyway, I'm aware of the limited storage (which is fine, especially with OTG support), and can't think of any other complaints I've read about in reviews (thickness is fine - I had a G2 before my Galaxy Nexus and never once thought it was too thick)...with that being said, anybody have any input on such a decision, or anything I should know about the U (maybe a replacement in the works already)? Doesn't necessarily have to be from a Galaxy Nexus specifically, anybody who's gone from a larger phone (comparable in specs) to the Xperia U too.
Don't move to a U from a GNexs.
Minimum you move to an Xperia P. Or get the Xperia Sola.
I believe for one handed operation a phone the size of the Xperia S is perfect!

I want a front-facing cam so Sola is out...and compared to the U, the P doesn't offer me much for that extra $100 (especially when I can just get a Nexus 4 for around that price and deal with the bigger screen) - don't need more storage, camera quality bump is nice but not required, small built-in battery sucks from what I've read, don't need HDMI out, and I've read the screen quality isn't as good.

Should have mentioned, I'm looking to replace my Galaxy Nexus, but not fully - I just bought the official extended battery and want to give it another shot, but even if, I'd still keep it for multimedia purposes and as a backup phone (my only other phone is a G2 that I don't want to end up damaged). Plus, I'd say a Galaxy Nexus with a few accessories is worth a bit more than $200 anyway =P

But I don't want a bigger screen or to be stuck to a charger like that (I have that problem enough with my Galaxy Nexus). The biggest improvement I'd be getting would be the camera, and its not worth $100 to me considering its drawbacks (and I have a decent point and shoot that's pretty compact too that I'd rather use than a smartphone for serious picture taking). Plus, I like the light bar on the U =P

Ya bud,your claims are true but partially abt dev and adam
I dont know what xperia u scores but I doubt if u can score better than this..and for dual core phone these are impressive scores
And dev for sgr has not been in downfall,it has been steadily slow...dev has been there for all along but has been slow
And adam(hes the lone dev for cm10) was angry and told he would leave dev team but he's back and after all that thing happened he went into limbo and in 3 4 days he was back with working cm10.1 and now he's totally back
And if m not wrong u doesnt even have cm10 or jb..
and yes in looks sgr cant beat u but sgr has better processor and ram and is a phone if customized properly can be like 90% equi. To sgs2
M not trying to debate,just dicussing facts and my frnd has sgs2 and he also thinks sgs2.and sgr are almost same..
hope u dont mind me saying all this,just trying to help

I dont know what xperia u scores but I doubt if u can score better than this..and for dual core phone these are impressive scores
And dev for sgr has not been in downfall,it has been steadily slow...dev has been there for all along but has been slow
And adam(hes the lone dev for cm10) was angry and told he would leave dev team but he's back and after all that thing happened he went into limbo and in 3 4 days he was back with working cm10.1 and now he's totally back
And if m not wrong u doesnt even have cm10 or jb..
and yes in looks sgr cant beat u but sgr has better processor and ram and is a phone if customized properly can be like 90% equi. To sgs2
M not trying to debate,just dicussing facts and my frnd has sgs2 and he also thinks sgs2.and sgr are almost same..
hope u dont mind me saying all this,just trying to help

Obviously buddy its jz a discussion
Thats right
Xu scores around 33 in nenamark2 and 3100 on quadrant (3300 wid v6 supercharger aggressive settings)
My bro has a galaxy r and only reason m nt exchanging it wid him
Bcoz of the display difference
Rest I do agree even 2nd hand galaxy r is costlier than a brand new xperia u
Thanks for correcting my facts
And was there any progress about getting official cm... ??
Btw xu has no jb yet bt we will get official though...

No cm is still in doubt as we flooded the cm moderator timeline on g+ and emails, so he's kinda pissed off... We'll wait till things get better

Does the samsung galaxy S have 2 cores or just one ?, what about ram, screen quality and gpu.Oh and hows the developing on S.
Don't trade! Galaxy S has ****ty old low screen, 1ghz single core old architecture processor, also bad music playback, same ram size as xperia u but still the ram of the xperia u is far better, old low gpu also, the development was huge for the Samsung galaxy s before but by now it isn't going to keep that status

If you're talking about Galaxy S Advance, then yes, it has a bigger AMOLED screen, MicroSD card support and Android 4.1.
If you're talking about Galaxy S, then no.
Well, you could either buy the Galaxy S Advance, Galaxy Ace 2 or the Galaxy S III Mini.
I personally would either pick the cheapest option (the Ace 2) or the S III Mini.
Its the advance S. But i dont know i have to know how much difference in cash do i have to put over my xperia u.Of course i cant just trade it off without giving the guy some extra money, will post here when i get to know.Thanks for your opinions.
I should say yes. from what i see here: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4437&idPhone2=4469:good:
S advance is better
Buy one
I have used one for a day and its faster on stock rom, better n bigger screen wid memory card support
There is less development for s advance.

Wait for one month, u will get at same price. More important thing is that u will not get much support /dev like galaxy R.

Galaxy r is now running ALMOST stable cm10.1
Its now adopted by team hacksung
Isn't a Sony's build quality much better than Samsung's?
Specs can always be better, but at the end of the day the build quality, screen and camera matter than the 'latest' OS.
Also Sony's stock rom is way better than Samsung. My sister has a galaxy s2 and she's not into rooting and stuff, she hates her phone...
That's my 2 cents

I can exchange my xu wid s2 anytime even today
Stock rom of sony LOOKS better no doubt
Build quality is more affected by price range rather than being company specific
You like ROMS? Galaxy is better for ROMS but my Xperia U
