The build quality is 10x better! If im being picky, im gonna say its too light! haha. I bought a case though so its perfect now.

Watch this:

Will my phone contract have already started? or will it only start once i have registered my phone?

I'm going through this at the minute, was thinking galaxy nexus, but theres no mass storage mode, so no B&M thats a big no no after this crappy windows phone with no mass storage mode, sensation seems like a good choice but the screen on the S2 blows me away, still trying to deiced between the sensation and S2

Had my galaxy s2 for a few days now, it is really good
Its taking me ages to set up as this is my first remotely smart phone i have had

I cant say if it is better than the HTC or not though without experiancing both. Theyre pretty much identical spec so I think it comes down to the little things. Like I went for the samsung as its smaller and light than the HTC and I thought the build quality might be a bit better.

me too. its bloody awesome. ill never own an HTC again.
