TheDon Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 The Galaxy S II has been delayed by a month, so Samsung can upgrade it to a 1.2ghz processor. Guessing they saw the benchmarks from the qualcomm 1.2ghz chip and are making sure they're competitive. Some interesting moves from samsung lately, the galaxy tab changes, and now this, they definitely want to be leading the pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 They might know something we dont about iPhone 5 I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Well it's not just the iphone 5, the Evo 3D clocks in at 1.2ghz. They need to compete not just with the iphone 5 but all the other android handsets. This generation is going to be a pretty decent fight by the looks of it.

CVByrne Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Release Date has been May for awhile, no idea why they think it's been pushed back for a month. May 6th is the date I've seen banded about since March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Ah ok, was reported that that was just India in articles I read. It'll come when it comes, my SGS is perfectly good in the mean time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDon Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Yeah from delayed to sooner than we thought. Nice to know Samsungs communication is as good as ever! It's really going to be interesting to see how they split up the handsets though, I hope to god we don't get the tegra version. But then, my upgrade isn't for a while, so I doubt I'll be getting it anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Nexus dual core is the one to wait for if you are still happy with your current handset I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Probably the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 You'd assume that europe and america would be getting the samsung processor and the tegra would just fill the shortages in other territories. Given the media in europe and america would be the ones you'd want to impress most, especially when competing with the iphone., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Does anybody here use or an Instapaper like app? I have been using readitlater for a couple of days now and I really like it. Worth the 50p or whatever the app costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 A question on behalf of my dad (because I know he is going to ask me when he sees me, and I have no idea) How easy is it to edit excel files on an Android phone? I assume Google Docs is probably the way to go, but he works out in the sticks and his time sheets are sent to him by email as .xls files so he is kinda stuck with excel. Any tips? Any apps?

TheDon Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'd rather have the Evo 3D. Sure 3D might be a gimmick, but it's one I'd rather have than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
