+Marcus Xe Yeah, it was. Funny thing is this phone still has a massive fan base that has lasted till today. As evidenced by the amount of custom ROMs released for this device. Recently there has been a android 6.0 marshmallow custom ROM released for it.
This was my first smartphone and i used it for 4years. Thought it was not such a perfect device but it performed alot of tasks which i never expected from this and moreover, it made my teenage amazing, brighter and superb. I miss those days and my galaxy sII . What a amazing days.....
This is incredible to look back on. I've since switched to iOS and currently using the XS but I remember getting home from school one day and my mom surprising me with the S2 after I walked in the door, it was my first top of the line smart phone. The nostalgia is real.
Watching in 2018 My *very first* smartphone! I got it in March 2012 after using a Sony Ericsson T707 that I bought in 2010 after my Sony Ericsson C510 died during a school field trip... (The C510 has been with me since 2008)
I was like 16 years old back when the S2 was announced and my god wasn't I hyped for this. This was my dream phone back in the day. Kept thinking about it day and night. And today I'm owning a Pixel 7 Pro. We have come a long way with technology. Good ol' days brining back all the nostalgia...
I think the S2 is the absolute best looking of the old school samsung phones. So sleek and attractive all around. It's just as classic as the iPhone 2G, 3G, and 4/4s
Came here for nostalgia.. and I succeeded... my elder brother had this phone and he never allowed me to touch .. and today m 20 now owning 11pro and doing same with my younger brother 😂

in my opinion the best one is j2
that's my only phone :(
S8

I think this is the phone that made Samsung a serious contender in the phone market, this was absolutely stunning back in the day.
But they were copying iphone design back then
iPhone 12: nah
Galaxy S2: *YESS!* (Jotaro’s voice)
Seeing this after The S7 release , feels like the S2 was released like ages ago.
thats true=p

+MeltingS99 too xD
+Rah-Gee Spence it's OK if I didn't have the s7 edge I would have been watching this on a s3
When this came out I remember it was considered a huge phone and now it's so cute and tiny

I absolutely love my Galaxy s2...i really dont see it becoming obsolete soon..the screen is insanely good, so are the Cameras.
Hello, I am from the future.
Such A NICEEEE phone.
Can't wait for the plus to come out
