Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2 / Samsung Epic 4G Touch first look

One of my teammates got his Samsung Galaxy S demo and let me test drive it for the morning. All I have to say is WOW! I hopped right into the widgets and SAMOLED HD Plus. The device's 1.2 ghz dual core processor is so fast that everything loads in a snap. The Widgets are crystal clear and have an amazing layout now.
I apologize in advanced for the crummy pictures. I didn't have my Sony HD camera with me that I usually take my shots with so I was forced to use my 5mp BB Bold 9930 camera. I tried installing the Motorola Photon 4G's screenshot app but it didn't work (edit: I was advised  later in the afternoon the screenshot feature is available by holding HOME and POWER Buttons, respectively)


The lockscreen doesn't have any weird locks or sliders. It's a picture and you just swipe in any direction to unlock.






















Adding Widgets and folders is a crisp and easy experience. Samsung really went deeper into the UI to make it a fluid experience without adding too many windows to the User Interface.























Sprint TV looks beautiful and has a better loading speed, even over 3G speeds.



YouTube streams HQ faster while on 3G and didn't even buffer a 4 minute Street Dance HD video.





Browsing the Web on 3G was a breeze and the mobile websites loaded so quickly and clearly it's hard to imagine your'e on a mobile device.

Samsung stepped it up further by not only offering better widgets but better looking widgets! Dual clocks that look great on the SAMOLED Plus HD

Samsung designed a prettier Power Control Widget as well, with an extended power bar that gives you more battery saving abilities than it's predecessor.





















Thoughts?

I am excited about this device and the stats speak for themselves in volumes. The device is light, thin, and an absolute joy to use. It's fast, durable, built well, and has the ability to take on anything the competition is advertising right now on their lineups.
