Ok it's finally stable, it was for me anyway, but the actual stable official binary is out. Go fourth download and be surprised at just HOW good your phone is, even though it was released over 15 months ago! Really wondering why i'm considering dropping some new bones on a Nexus Prime right now =/ Phone is flying...

Quick S2 question - is there a nack to getting the back off it? GF has just received hers and is having trouble but scared of damaging it by forcing it.

Toby · 11-10-2011, 13:00

Ta I'll forward that on

She should be able to get a nail in there

It is opposite the 8.0

What is it like when using with one hand? I struggle to reach the top left of the iPhone screen sometimes so image it must be a right pain sometimes

It's easy, you must have tiny girly hands

I have succumbed to the temptations of the S2

Whilst I can reach the far left edge of the screen, it is a bit of a stretch and those with smaller hands would find it even more of a problem.

TBH it's too big for me. Whilst the screen is awesome when watching videos or web-browsing, I rarely do either of these on my phone and thus prefer something smaller and more 'pocketable'. The S2 is a good phone but just too damn big tbh.

Note I'm not getting into an Android/iOS debate here, just commenting on the physical size
