6* out of 5* If I could... Where to start about this phone..... wow, for people who are concerned regarding battery life but want a top end phone then look no further than this handset. I understand peoples concerns in the other reviews about the battery life but you have to remember this phone 10 years ago would have been the size of a room, and now it fits in your pocket! Phones now aren't like the nokias of old that would last months between charges.. Using the "Program Monitor" widget will help keep battery life up as it will allow you to terminate applications running in the background.. Now, onto the phone! The handset is stunning, it's really lightweight, fantastic screen, camera that will take beautiful pictures and record in 1080p! It's also got a front facing 2mp camera if video calling is your thing ( Or you can use it as a mirror if you like.. ) It can be used as a torch with the led flash and with the amount of applications android offers (mostly free too!) it's like the swiss army knife of the phone world. If you're looking for a new handset this is definately the one I would recommend both personally and professionally. 27 February 2012
was recommended to me and fantastic, I love it!!!!! This phone is fantastic, its like a mini computer, still finding my way around it, Ideal for me. My teenage daughters have just both had iphones but I am extremly satisfied with my samsung, I would definatly recommend this as it was to me. 09 December 2012
Great Android phone The screen is astonishing. The speed is fantastic compared to my HTC Wildfire Android 4 is great. Battery life could be better and there are some issues with notifications etc I.e. turning them off completely still seems to leave vibration on .... Even though nominally off in settings. Overall, would go out and ut the same again. Size is also fine despite being an initial worry, size being the easy not to bother with the Siii - that and he fact I wasn't convinced that the specs were better enough than this to merit the cost. 05 December 2012
Great product i wander how S3 like after S2 I was thinking of getting a notepad when i travel i usually take my laptop but those day's are gone.Just take S2 or S3 and u are sorted to Skype mail etc. 02 December 2012
Great phone Had this for two weeks now and love it great apps and android is really good aswell, very fast and classy smartphone. Lllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllllll 30 November 2012
Good purchase Not a huge phone user but so far the battery lasts well, it's easy to use and takes great photos - really pleased with it. Less pleased with writing a review which must have a minimum number of characters!!!! 24 November 2012
very nice n well equipped Very posh and:-X easy to use grt model. no where less than new models. easy to use nice touch screen good navigator .very good camera .nice features. Value for money 23 November 2012
superb phone This is a great phone, the best phone I've ever owned. It has amazing features a great camera superb Web Brower.i thought it would have been hard to move from ios but is not.this is a much quicker phone than the iPhone 4s. 23 November 2012
I love this phone This is the phone I've been waiting for! Every phone that I've had before has lacked something which has left me feeling a little disappointed after the anticipation of having a new phone. It is quick, slick and feature-filled. I thought about not giving it five stars for reliability because apps do sometimes just stop but I figure that's not really the phone's fault. 21 November 2012
The product is very easier to use and has a great variety of features to use It is very easy to navigate through the phone and use the features. Downloading apps is quick and easy and keeping track of your data usage is very straightforward. 12 November 2012

I can confirm that any deal showing with texts included, can only be used in the UK and to any other UK mobile phone number.

However, there are some deals that do offer additional services that are only available to numbers on the same network.

I hope this helps.

Answers

Answer: 
The 500MB of data is only for use on mobile internet, sometimes called 3g. That's when your phone is using the mobile network signal to connect to the internet.

All compatible handsets have unlimited access to your home WiFi network as standard. this is not part of your bundle, but rather a feature of your handset.

Using WiFi will never use your mobile data allowance

Hello Grammy

It is a simple 12 month contract, all the prices on our website is exactly what you pay each month. at the end of the 12 month period you can either cancel the contract, upgrade the contract with the same network or even change networks. Hope this helps.

I know that when the Galaxy S II was released in the UK there was no NFC chip installed but they would be included in later releases. Did this happen and will this phone have one fitted.

Samsung have confirmed that the UK version of the Galaxy S2 will not receive NFC compatibility. So all UK handsets will ship without an NFC chip inside them.

Hello Adam

The data allowances shown on the deals are per month, every month. So if your deal states 500MB of data, then you get that data every month for the whole contract.

I am expected to leave the contract in 10 months time. Can i still purchase this contract and clear the payment before I leave to end the contract earlier? which means i will pay 36pounds X 12 month before I leave. Can I do that?

Hello Myfiona

You can indeed end a contract at any time by paying off the remaining line rental. all you need to do is contact your chosen network and they can take an early termination payment from you.

Answer: 
Great question Elisha

When you come to the end of a contract package there are a few options open to you. please note that with all options, the handset you have chosen as part of your package is your property and will not have to be returned to us or the network.

Upgrade

Upgrades allow you to keep the same number on the same network and will offer you a new handset and price plan.

Payg

You can contact your network directly and change your contract back to pay as you go.

Cancel

After your contract period has ended you can give your 30 days notice to the network and cancel the package entirely

New deal

Or you can cancel your old contract and start a new package on a different network.

I hope this helps

Answer: 
Hello Galaxydil

The o2 data 200 tariffs have recently changed, so for the £21.50 per month you would get

200 any time, any network mins,
unlimited texts
and 250mb of mobile data per month.

The Galaxy s2 also has unlimited home WiFi access as standard, this is a feature of the handset, not the package.

Phones4u will also offer 24 months free "cloud" WiFi services, available in over 7,000 locations nationwide.

I hope this helps
