the galaxy s2 sold in europe looks completely different and has a more distinctive design. i still like how it looks to this day
The US carriers carrying s2 is vastly different design from the rest of the world 😅
I remember mine had a home button and it was from T mobile.
Thats the one i know like i was looking at that and i was like "tf is that?"
This one and the s3 were my favorite samsung phones back in the day.
I was only a child when this was released. But man, old android gets me nostalgic. I actually really love the old icons and just the old feel of android in general. I wish I was able to experience the simple age of Android outside of my galaxy tab 7.0
Asphalt 6 bring back old memories, the best game of the series imo
The thing I miss most from this early era of modern smartphones is the personality that each phone had. I get that with modern miniature-bezel designs and such there isn't much room for anything than a flat sterile black front, but I still think it's a shame. I'm not sure how good having all devices be so anonymous is for marketing purposes.
I don't agree with you about much room under the cover because of Sony Xperia phones. They placed a modern processor, much of RAM and ROM with amazing camera in a fairly small housing without microSD and minijack refusal!
My very first droid when I was a kid was the S3 Mini. I didn't even know it had an oled display back then 😂
This the Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch which was sorta a Sprint exclusive. And was released in September 2011 after the S2 in May 2011.
this is the SGH- T989 , a T Mobile exclusive. Not the epic though.
Despite the fact I had the S2 for less than a month & all these years later it's still in my top 3 favourite Android phones ever
Galaxy s3 started it all for me and been Team Samsung ever since. Only galaxy I never got. Were the s1,s2, and s4 but gotten every other Galaxy s series phone since. Rocking the beast s24 ultra right now 😊
That was an absolutely amazing and nostalgic video! Thankyou so much for uploading it! I fully enjoyed it! Kinda disappointed u didn't play Minecraft in it 😂
Still the only phone with a RGB matrix AMOLED screen
Rgb matrix?
What does that even mean?
I recently bought a Galaxy Captivate (AT&T S1) and the same thing happened, all the last owners photos were still there. Guys, take out your SD cards before you sell your phone!
Looks good though but I think other galaxy s2 models have lineage os upgrades does this have lineage os upgrade?
I’m still rocking a fully functional Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray in 2024 as a sidekick phone, mainly use it as an mp3 player with preloaded playlists 👍
God I love these old UI designs. Today everything feels so extremely corporate. Also its so nuts how little graphics on games for phones advanced. Like is anyone even trying today?
Watching this video using S24U, man made me think how far the evolution have gone. Engineering is such a piece of art
those T-mobile bloatware sounds and ringtones are still triggering my PTSD, especially when I had to turn on my phone in the morning and the damn thing was extremely loud. God I still hate T-mobile.
lol I hate the T Mobile chime. I’m with you. Also all the pink ikons. Similar to sprint back in the day
I love my phone but the T mobile shit on it is so frustrating everytime I power it on 😂
Samsung added the ability to get the old button noises back, just go into sound settings > system sounds and change it to retro. And enable touch sounds.
9:18 you've played Temple Run for exactly 3 minutes (judging by the clock) and YES, *Am not fun at parties* 😂
Dude get The Samsung Galaxy S1
The s2 sprint was my first phone and it was fantastic at the time compared to other phones
That was my first Android..except mine was the AT&T version. I traded my iPhone 4 for it. I was wanting to try something different. My dad said I was going to wind up regretting it because he knew how much I loved Apple. I didn't regret it. I loved the Galaxy S2...then once I was comfortable using Android, I upgraded to a Galaxy Note 2. I have gone back and forth between iPhone and Android for years.
Considering Asphalt 6 is Abandonware at this point. If you haven't performed a factory reset, kindly consider dumping it for preservation. Also, I think the Galaxy S2 have an exclusive version of Aspahlt 6 called "Asphalt 6: WCG Edition".
Even if it's a demo I'm sure people would play this thing for days. Well I would at least.
classic design always never gets bored... lots of shapes and variations, not like now
Can you insert sim card & make calls?
Nostalgia! I have a broken Galaxy S II HD LTE lying around in my drawer. I tried to get it repaired, but they told me it was ancient and parts are not manufactured for it anymore sadly.
Or if they have parts, are basically custom requests costing as mach as a low tier phone (yep, tried repairing my Galaxy Grand Prime aand the screen was double the price of a whole old stock device)
Depends on what's broken. You can always get a replacement from Aliexpress. Can't guarantee the quality, but it will most definitely work.
@myrmeko Well, the screen is broken, and that's pretty much it. Nothing else is broken apart from the screen. it's in pieces right now, and they dont have parts for it.
None of the S2 variants in the US used the big centered physical home button, instead opting for the capacitive set of Recent Apps/Home/Back/Search. Samsung didn't implement the physical home button for US models (with capacitive back & recent apps) until the S3 variants came along; I had the SPH-720T "Triband" variant of the S3 that was exclusive to both Virgin Mobile & Boost Mobile, but that one came out after the original S3 & S3 mini. Fun times until a freak accident saw the screen get destroyed *DESPITE* having it in a case & screen protector... Gaaaaaames?? Zenonia 1-4 (3 is the best), Chronicles of Inotia 3&4, Destinia, Angry Birds Star Wars 1&2, Angry Birds Transformers, Transformers: Earth Wars (this and Angry Birds Transformers were quickly updated over time to no longer support certain phones whether they had the required Android version or not), and so on.
I remember when the Samsung Galaxy I released, every carrier got its own different version. This one came out and they were all similar in design but with a small cahnge
It looks very good. loved it
i played asphalt 6!! Is my fav game!!! i had an S2 t-mobile! its good on asphalt 6. BTW im a big fan!!!!!!!!!
That ambitious feeling of playing new 3D games on smartphones with the accelerometer back then was unmatched. Mobile gamings potential was and is limitless and still companies continue to use these overpowered mobile powerhouses to put out gatcha games and bullshit.
The galaxy s2 that i remember is pretty different from that one idk why ! Is that a special model for the us market ??
Nice smartphone video!😊
I was surprised when I first discovered this model of Samsung and realised that it was a SII because when I had the SII it was the basic model with three navigation buttons with the home button in the middle like the Gamaxy S and SIII.
7:00 that's why i don't let people hold my phone when i show them an image 😂 they always tend to want to explore 👀
lol yea I look away when people start scrolling looking for a photo 😆 I’ve seen too much.

Chili hotdog = chili dog = Sonic reference?

It'd be interesting to see you update the phone with custom roms as far as it can go.
😭😭😭 The nostalgia, the nostalgia 😭😭😭😁
The galaxy nexus was my favourite samsung of the time a predecessor to the pixel line.
Netflix must have only recently shut off support for the S2, because when I had an S2 from eBay in about 2020, it did work.
loved this phone back in the day. LOVED it. The black was nicer. HOWEVER.. this must be another variant. I got mine in US but seeing online it may have been an international variant? It had a bump on the back bottom of the phone. And more boxy look like a note phone. This design is like an s3 and its ok, sort of gets job done but man oh man did i like the other one and in black. So sleek.
I can literally share images to notes with multiwindow, especially honor phones, i do have these..
Ender smells like a chilli hotdog. I typed this, watched, liked and subscribed from a Samsung Galaxy X Cover3, this thing wars realesed in 2014 and has android 4.4.4. ,the kit kat version
Can you do a Sony Ericsson video?
I manage to find a Huawei Mate 10 in perfect condition for 155 euros . I'm waiting for that 5.9 inch 2K IPS screen 16:9
I had a s4 but unfortunately are new dog got to it and chewed it up while I was out shopping
I had the exhaustingly-named Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch. Miss that old phone.
I remember mine looking a little different design wise. I could be wrong but maybe not
Possible to update the Google Play application
try review the first ever samsung galaxy s1!
Owned and played a lot of asphalt 6 😅
please do s4 mini... i seriously consider to buy one. i want something small and great
Ok ❤️
You should review the galaxy note 2
Amazing 😮😮😮
I have a galaxy s(forgot the number) it's look kinda like this, but it's had broken. When i charge, it's have some "animation" but the power button won't work, so nvm
Just a small tactic u could use smart youtube tv on old phones like this
Fr💀
How about a review on Samsung Galaxy S1
Old Samsung animations is amazing than the latest
This is why l love Samsung
the real og Galaxy S2 is GT-i9100 model not any t-mobile or verizon sh.t looks like S2,5 xD has the t-mobile version any custom roms ?
the GT-i9100 is a piece of trash. the T989 was a more powerful phone and was significantly better than the international version in literally every way. and yes, it had loads of custom roms available
This video was uploaded and privated Why tho?
conspiracy!! was scheduled to upload at 6am. KZhead screwed me. Not first time upload schedule on mobile studio has done this.

This phone was released during the time when it was cool to hate TouchWiz (Samsung UI) in the Android community back then. Nowadays, the current interface of Samsung phone (One UI) is just way better.
I still own my EU spec sII all these years later
In my memories galaxy s2 is one of the best phone can play fruit ninja smooth like iphone.
do a video about iphone 7
I owned the galaxy S2 and now I’m using a galaxy S2
Do the oldest samsung galaxy tab you can find.
I Love This Samsung Galaxy S II
Had the S4 and played Asphalt 6. Pity it is not working on any phone for almost a decade
gotta say i used an s2 plus as my daily for a bit in 2018 1:04 and t-mobile still used this sound till recently in other countries i have an Austrian Telekom galaxy a3 2017 and it boots up with the exact sound and yes that's how t-mobile is usually named in europe it's usually (county name) Telekom except Romania it's just Telekom and they suck
And even cones with 256GB!
I thought Owen Wilson was narrating lol

I got a Google Samsung from 2010 Android version 2.2
I have a new phone now but it has higher resolution LCD screen
get a european s2 and flash android 14 on it
i always favored the standard more squared S2 than this... this has S3 dna in it a little bit
5 hours = 7 views?
It was night in the USA
The phone that you have play store stil works on de s2 and s3. You just have to put in you google information and that’s it but it says that it has a problem with the severs you just have to click on it every time and than boom it works 😂😂😂😂😂😂
oh god. my dad’s old phone
The European Galaxy s2 looks so much better
The Sony Xperia Arc and SLT26ii is better than the S 2
Not sure if the pictures of those kids are yours but if they are not, just out of respect of privacy for them, you should've blurred their faces.
Nah this aint the og galaxy s2, get the one with the home button
