What's thinner, lighter and twice as powerful as the Galaxy S? Well, it's the Galaxy S II (GT-i9100) of course and we've got one of them babies right here (though it's still an engineering unit and not the final release). Having owned the first Samsung Galaxy S, I was pretty excited how much improvements this second generation Galaxy S would look like and perform. Samsung definitely made good effort in upgrading their Galaxy smarpthone. I was already impressed with the camera from the old Galaxy and they've still improved on that more. The first Galaxy S was already thin at 9.9mm but this new one is even thinner at just 8.5mm. We're still not sure when Samsung will officially release the Galaxy S II in the Philippines and for what price. Full review coming up later next week (Samsung PR warned me though that the unit is still an engineering model so there might be bugs here and there).
