SO i went to the gadget show in birmingham on saturday, my friends family own scancomputers so went with him to help out..
i managed to get a play on the galaxy s 2 atthe samsung stand, its un friggin believable, i have never known a phone to dfeel so non exiostant, its thin , like really thin and weighs nothing at all...
Feels cheap plasticy though which is where the weight is saved but the hardware is amazing, super smooth and the screen looks like nothign i have seen before, it is crystal clear and when i played some preinstalled 720p vids it had it is actually clearer than the most expensive tv you can currently buy... anyone waiting on an upgrade, wait and play with this first...
Also i got to play with the HTC sensation but it was a pre release model and some features werent working, again screen is really good, really clear but the samsung is still twice as good, it feels heavy and a little fat, it seems thicker than my old htc HD2 as its got a curved back... new htc sense is pretty nice though, lots of little additional features and bits to make it feel acomplished again a good phone but HTC guy said that it is out any time in the next 2 months, which he recons means late june...
Finally i played with the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 on the vodaphone area in expansys, really nice bit of kit, android 3.0 is really good seems to work well on the tablet size and the samsung is really smooth with the interface.. that said they also had an ipad 2 next to it... ipad is still better IMO was really hoping the android tabs would be good but apple i think have won this market already...
anyway just wanted to share my geeky weekend experience with you...
