Is there really no new phone coming out soon that will replace the G2? I'm not under contract, and if nothing is going to come out, I might as well buy a myTouch or Nexus S for a good price under contract and resell it.
CES is coming up. We should see some HTC phones sporting the QSD8672
There always something new around the corner. You can play the waiting game forever. Buy what meets your needs right now.
You might want to wait about 2 to 3 months. Im sure that there will be something

technology will always advance my friend one thing comes out another will replace with something better
i dont really see anything that will be coming out any time soon. I judge based on developer support as well. This phone will take over.
Already looking for a replacement huh? Good things come to those that wait. It took about 10 months for something to come along and replace my nexus one. Its one of the premier phones for a reason and it will be a while before something "replaces" the G2.

I like your idea of flipping an upgrade for some quick cash. Also, you can get a Nexus S under contract?

For the "Samsung Galaxy S 2 Attain(at&t), Function(Verizon), and Within(Sprint)", but nothing about T-Mobile.
I suppose 1this could be 1 of many things, either T-mobile just hasn't come up with a name yet, that case is for some reason not allowed to mention the T-mobile version, the t-mobile version will be physically different, T-mobile isn't actually getting one, etc...
I wouldn't personally assume the last one, but it still makes it seem like anyone with T-mobile will be waiting the longest. It also goes to show we will probably not be getting one phone to rule them all and have to deal with different versions, then again maybe they will just each be individually branded but development can still span each one but I am not holding my breath.
I dunno, just didn't see this posted and was yelling "Noooooo!" at my laptop so I figured I would risk being an ass hat by posting this.
It's okay, I was thinking the same thing when I didn't see a post. Anyway, I think this and the postponement of the May 24th event in NYC was the last straw for me. It probably means that it'll be at least a month before any carrier gets the SGSII and I just can't wait that long. I'm probably going to get the Sensation and just find alternative apps to cover the crappy codec support if it actually has decent audio hardware.
it could just mean 3 to 6 more month before we get the Tmobile version
just like the Nexus S
Sprint took like 6 month after, before they got theirs, which was just released by the way
I'm on T-Mobile too, and I sure hope they release within the next month or so... I've been waiting since the MWC show and thought it would be sooner, but since this will be my first smart phone, so I guess patience is the word of the day.
Or maybe in anticipation of the merger, t-mobile just decided to let at&t release it

No chance. That thing isn't happening for at least another year or so and hopefully, it might not even happen at all.
Maybe no S2 for now but TMO is releasing the Samsung "Hawk" on June 8.

I dont know if I want to wait that long.... Its an amazing phone but they are less amazing 4 months after original launch as better phones start coming out...
I might have to lend toward the nexus 3 if its around then

I'm waiting until the Sensation launches and if there's no solid launch date by then, that's it. My contract was over in February, I don't know why I still haven't jumped at getting a new phone yet and we're already in May.

by that time samsung will announce a new version of the phone. And then this same process starts again...!
If T-Mobile is delaying the release of the SGS2, they might as well skip it and be the first to release the SGS3.
Hopefully it just means the tmo version is slightly different and would require a different gel case. Samsung sold a **** tons of Vibrants so I hardly think tmo would skip out on this one. Does anyone know which carrier sold more sgs's? I tried searching for numbers but just keep coming up with overall sgs sales.

Hercules anyone? 4.5 screen is sick, I'm kinda jealous.
maybe thats the alternative to the SGS2 for T-Mob.
Yeah but its coming out in September, much later than when the other SGSII variants are supposed to arrive on other carriers. I wish they just left it alone like what they did in the design of the Vibrant and released it during the summer.
They are gonna get it I read somewhere were this Guy was told by a Samsung Rep that they are getting it he also said that vibrant had best sales so there is no question that there getting it cuz there trying to make money duhh

I hope you're right. All these recent stories about the SGSII not showing hints of a T-Mobile variant are really starting to make me wonder if all the waiting I did was for nothing.
I have 2 upgrades at discounts with V right now. I am pretty temped at this point to retire my X after 2 hard years of use and go to the GNex. What are you guys thoughts?
Go ahead! I would if I were you. I switched to Sprint, and I am aortic regretting that, although sprint isn't bad.

I have an upgrade coming and cant wait to finally own a nexus on Verizon. I'm just interested to see how Verizon will decide to cripple another awesome piece of hardware this time around.
Thanks for the feed back!
The X has been great no question and made me fall in love with android even more. But today it is just getting slower and slower.
Thinks I will go for it.
Do you guys know if you order offline does the phone come activated or do you have to take it in to the store still?
You can activate right from the new phone. No need to go to a store

Can't wait to end my contract in order to use the renew deal + the upgrade. When that happens I expect to see a better phone than the nexus. Meanwhile I have to stick with my droid x and its brooken camera botton. Well, it is worth waiting for something better.

If the GS3 has a ceramic casing, it is not gonna have a removable battery.
I doubt it wouldn't have a removable battery
well ima hit target up sunday and see what this is all about
Any phone without a removable battery is an instant no in my book. I like my semi-hot swappable batteries.

But i hate how Samsung phones spec differ in America compared to abroad, this means less dev support. Every one s ( considering it or S3 ) will be the same all over the world, just like the sensation and other HTC phones. Also, we might end up getting the S3 around Christmas with the way US carriers lag.
It will drop around the same time as the iPhone 5

Buying an international version solves that problem. I know you have to pay full prize but you can use your upgrade and sell it here so that you can make up some of the total cost. Also there is no AT&T branding on international version which is awesome. I hate that AT&T logo on nice looking phones

Agreed we don't know how it will look and I'm guessing it will not have a removable battery as well if rumors of ceramic casing are true.
I read somewhere that the Next Galaxy will have a simultaneous world release date (US carriers included); it has something to do with the way the GS2 sold.
That would prolly keep them from making the same mistake like they did making the US G-Nex a Verizon exclusive. Back to the main topic, I will be preordering the One X and if I dont like it I could always sell it and wait for GS3.
Thought we should see how the pre-order is stacking up for the USA! I know it is early but I wanted to get it out there. Poll is open until the 18th (since the phone comes out in stores the 19th)

Wirefly sucks with preorders. I learned to stay away from them from the Evo LTE fiasco last year. Hopefully you have better luck.
I'm planning to be on T-Mobile, but not ordering yet because I want to be able to access all their towers.

Evo LTE fiasco...
Basically the launch delay due to shipments being held by US Customs (due to Apple infringement claim). As they were gradually let out, Sprint had first pick at them while third-parties (like Wirefly) were way down on the list. Don't know when their customers finally got them (I ended up cancelling). Learned my lesson! Not saying that you'll have the same experience, but since this is limited quantities, know that Wirefly will get the left-overs.

You should put a spot that says "Going to preorder for T-Mobile", since it's really not available yet.

That is why I put "preordered FOR" and not "preordered FROM". Some people may get it from an AT&T store, some Best Buy, Some from HTC but that part isn't all that relevant.(for this poll).
The poll is also open until the 18th. If Tmobile doesn't offer it before that from them than it is not a pre-order .
Keep the votes coming guys! I know more people preordered than this .

I would be more concerned that you ordered the Black one for Sprint. The black version is not in the SKU system for Best Buy and it is not available directly from Sprint for preorder and they do not have the slightest clue when the black one will be released. (Expect end of May or June)
I preordered silver from sprint on Friday
