We’re just days away from the arrival of the first Samsung Galaxy S II to land in the US, and Sammy has put together a short ad to remind the world that the handset is coming and that it’s one doozy of a phone.
The ad is a well thought out, a bit comical, and somewhat inspiring. Little nuggets like, “No one ever stood in front of a mirror with a hairbrush pretending the tambourine player.” are sprinkled throughout, and you’ll see a few cameos from the likes of Bethany Hamilton, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and Paul Rudd playing air guitar. Overall, the ad should interest those who have never heard of the device and excite those who have been waiting so long for it to debut.
Even with the great hardware that’s available today, the only phone I’d consider having in my pocket for daily use is the Galaxy S II. Some will complain about the WVGA resolution, especially since HTC and Motorola have multiple handsets with qHD displays (and of the two, HTC takes the cake by a large margin) but we’d take a Super AMOLED Plus display with a WVGA resolution over a qHD display without Samsung’s stunning AMOLED tech. Really, it’s something you need in your hand to make your final opinion.
The original Galaxy S was one of the most successful Android phones to date, and the Galaxy S II is a serious upgrade from its predecessor. With over 5 million units already sold, Samsung stands to grab a few more million handsets sold when it finally debuts on AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile in the coming months. Sprint’s version, the Epic 4G Touch, is just days away from landing on shelves, so if you’re looking for a Galaxy S II in the GSM variety, you’ll have to wait a bit longer.
Samsung has seriously stepped up its game and made one of the most solid phone’s we’ve ever seen before, and in the ad the hand-set maker claims it’s just, “the way we’re wired.”
If the Galaxy S II isn’t what you’re looking for, then Samsung may have something up its sleeve that’s a little more suitable for you in the coming months.
