It’s Official: Samsung Galaxy S2 at Php29,990

So it looks like we got the suggested retail price of the much-anticipated . We got word from Samsung Philippines that the SRP of the handset will be pegged at Php29,990USD 511INR 43,324EUR 487CNY 3,722.

However, this retail price might be the SRP for a pre-paid kit with Globe which will have exclusive rights to sell the handset for a limited time (probably a month or two just like the first SGS).

No word as to the official release date but I guess Globe and Samsung are still coordinating the date. Samsung PH says it’s definitely this June.

A tip from one of our readers tells us that the Samsung Store in SM North EDSA already has stocks but is selling it silently since the launch date is not yet official (of course we can’t confirm this).

  1. Wow! I just read your previous post saying others sell it for 38k.
    This is bad news for those who already bought them LOL. Good news for me who decided to wait instead of buying the LG 2X.
    Totally worth the wait i should say. Justifiable price too

  2. woot woot!!!

  3. I’m definitely getting this phone. BTW, most of the stores in Cyberzone (Megamall) have the teaser about the Samsung Galaxy S II Coming Soon. Does this mean that those stores will be able to sell them even if Globe is the exclusive distributor? Will those units be locked to Globe or not?

  4. nice.. Yugatech does it again.. :) thanks for the info…

  5. wow!! so how can i buy “silently” in sm north?

    thanks sir for the info!

  6. Yes! how do you buy it silently? i just called my mom and asked her to check if it’s available in sm north, it’s not yet available daw.

  7. hintay na lang ako ng one year, baka magiging 19K na lang yan.

  8. daymmnnn… bought my SGS for 32k! urghhhh!! 0.o

  9. @Dean Where?

    Someone from MobyShop in SG emailed that the expected price there is SGD900-1000. Might as well buy here. Ano kaya to, middle of June?

  10. Hey bought mine last May 30th for 37k. Huhuhu… At least openline and i’m ahead of everybody else by a few weeks. Haha.

  11. This is so much better! it’s the same company that created the Samsung NEXUS S but dont like the design. i don’t understand why Nexus S is not as beautiful as the S II in physical aspect :(

  12. The price is good news for those looking to purchase this phone and to those waiting for HTC sensation. Almost sure na ganyan din siguro price ng sensation to be able to compete. Win win for the consumers.

  13. Magiging openline kaya to sa Globe(ung prepaid kit)?

  14. Wow best buy for this phone, hopefully this week available na.

  15. Is this the variant of SGS II where you get dual 1.2ghz exynos proc and super amoled +?

  16. @Yuga

    Is it possible to acquire a new phone in globe if you have existing postpaid plan?

  17. waw ang mura!!!!!!!!!

  18. Yey! Any details on the price of SGSI?

  19. Yup my friend does have the screen problem too. Saw the thread at xda at whoa 28 pages already of people having same screen issues. Tsk tsk tsk this is bad, i was planning to get one. I thought my friend’s problem was just an isolated case. Oh well, i guess i have to wait a little longer. Id hate to get one and then Samsung orders a recall LOL.

  20. Taena, paps! Kaggagaling ko lang sa Samsung store sa ShoeMart North EDSA at natawa lang yung manedyer mismo nang ipakita ko itong site sa kanya!!! Stir naman yang “secret sale” kuno na yan! Pambihira naman oh!!!

  21. Damn Globe! meron na silang Iphone pati SGS 2 sa kanila pa din

  22. all this time i thought only N8 suffers the screen problem. ano ng bibilhin ko ngaun? basic phone na nga lang. Pinag-ipunan ko pa naman itong SGS 2

  23. Wow this is very tempting! But i still have the patience to wait for the next nexus with ice cream sandwich. I’ll keep myself isolated for a while, though i’m still drooling he he.

  24. i wish it has the look of the Samsung Wave S8500 but on a 4.3inch screen. i just don’t like plastic.

  25. http://fiddle.jshell.net/qFxsC/1/show/

    for GSXII users you can go to that site to check your screens and find out if you have the screen defects. Its a natural grey background so you can check if you have those yellow streaks

    No wonder why the SLCD variant of the GSXII has been leaked lol.

  26. sure bang meron ding yellow screen problem yung mga units na dadating dito satin? or baka sa unang production line lang yun?

  27. nothing to be excited about yet, since the article does not mention how big the phone is, 16 or 32gb.

    if it’s 32gb then, great! :D

  28. ther is an issue with the screen of the sgs 2. Ewn ko lng kung pati mga new units ngayun eh affected. Ther is a yellow spot sa left side ng screen nya. Mapapansin lang xa under low light settings ang dim surroundings..

  29. First the yellow screen issues, then the camera’s pink dot issues plus those system sounds that can’t be silenced. I was really looking forward for this phone but the issues that are coming out makes me want to hold on for the next iPhone.

  30. Hello everyone, i just want to ask anyone of you if it is really worth switching from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S2? Kasi medyo naghehesitate ako kasi nasanay na ko sa iPhone, pero gustong gusto ko talaga tong fone na to.. For sure maninibago ako, ayaw ko lang kasi na magsisi ako sa huli. Pero sobrang gusto ko ng specs ng phone na to. Thanks!

  31. may balita na ba kung kelan siya magiging available sa GLOBE POSTPAID? approved na kasi ang application ko, pero sabi ko aantayin ko yung SGS2?

  32. for sure ung 29990 is the 16gb SGS2. ung 32gb maybe about 33990+. can’t wait for this phone!!!

  33. Samsung MOA said that it’s definitely going to be available by 3rd quarter of June kc nga ni-launch na daw yesterday dto sa pinas yung SGS2 pti 10.1 na tab. Around June 23-25 and they said that the SRP would be around 35K daw. They didn’t mention din that it’d be tied up to Globe, actually they have posters or kung ano man tawag dun showing S2 coming soon.. So I think once it hits the market it’ll be available on any outlets.

  34. Which one is better, iPhone4 or SGSII?

  35. I have the SGS1 and the battery drains before a day end, and i have to shut the 3g off to keep it last longer. U’ll need a wall socket everyday for that. I also get billed extra when the apps im using connects to the net even if im not using it. It’s so sluggish opening kindle and other apps. But it’s camera is perfect for taking still and moving videos with lots of memory available to fill. I just hope those issues are resolved with this new SGS2 phone. or just get an iPhone.

  36. I have an iPhone4 just wondering which phone is better mine or the SGS2. Any thoughts on this is greatly appreciated before I switch to SGS2. Thanks.

  37. @Supes

    Cool lang dre. Ikaw pala galit eh. Magbasa ka ngang maigi, i said i didn’t regret my purchase kahit mas mahal ng 7K. And also, the way you write, you contradict yourself many times so you have to defend what you say. Hehehe. Kakatawa.

    Yup, masaya ko talaga kase one week ko ng napaglalaruan tong phone. And i discover a lot each day. Samantalang ikaw and the others are busy looking for faults even without the phones in your hands. You know what i’m saying? Labo di ba?

    Maybe you’ll realize everything when you actually own the phone and find out that you were wrong about it.

    Your name should start with a K. Hehehe.

  38. heard that samsung ang globe are planning to release it on the 3rd week of june pa.

    heard from someone connected to samsung. i’m kind of going with this one, i really think third week of june pa toh lalabas. :p

  39. Wow! finally the Samsung Galaxy S2 is going to be released and the price is not that bad too! I’m definitely going to get one as soon as possible. :)

  40. Aw just bought mine for 36k in GH. hehe.. but that’s ok. I really couldn’t wait.

  41. kailan ba talaga ito ibebenta?

    bakit kasi exclusive pa ito sa GLOBE? eh ang bagal naman nila!Pinagsawaan na ang S2 sa Europe at US nung April at May, wala pa rin ito sa Pinas! JUNE NA! lalabas na lang ang S3 di pa nila nire-release ito? LOL

    1 month na exclusive sa kanila, para saan? para sa pinaglumaang phone? lol

  42. Thats right Pag labas ng gs2 may mga bago na wahaaha badtrip tlga Pero wall tayo magagawa business is business

  43. Ano ba yan may 1month exclusivity pa nalalaman ang globe tagal ko na inaantay to hehe Tapos baka may issue pa na yellowish thingy sa screen mga units dadating satin tsk tsk Meron na kaya sa SG? Andun kasi parents ko nagpabili ako sana meron =)

  47. OT: How about the galaxy tab 10.1 and 8.9 when kaya release date dito sa atin mga magkano kaya yung Wifi only model? And another question 8megapixel ba talaga ang rear cam? Sa iba kasi 3megapixel lang eh.. Im kinda confused..
