Touch wood! But my folks are pretty awesome!
So as you all know, my birthday is just around the corner (to be precise Saturday, 24th March, and yes, I am accepting gifts in advance! :D ) Unlike boring parents of some of my very boring friends, my parents do not believe in gifting stupid deodorants, perfumes or clothes on my birthday! Yey! :P
We are a gadget loving family you see! :D
Last year, it was my beloved Kindle ! This year, it is Samsung Galaxy S II !! Woopieeeeeee!!!! To be honest with the numbers, each one of my mom, dad and sis holds 33.33% equity in this gift!:P
Now let me show-off the phone a bit, please! :P
In my humble opinion, this is the best Andoid phone I have used till date!! With 4.27 inch super AMOLED capacitative touchscreen, and 1.2 GHz dual core processor, you can not not play Angry Birds on it the whole day! :D Oh, and if that wasn't enough, this phone has an 8 MP back camera with LED flash, and a 2 MP front camera, just in-case you want to do a video chat through phone!!
As they say, vigyaan ne bahut tarakki kar li hai ! 5 minutes back, I downloaded an application, which utilizes the back camera and LED flash to measure my heart rate!! Just need to keep my finger on it for 10 seconds! Phew!
I was just looking at the spec sheet today morning, and was amazed by the fact that this tiny little phone (I am just kidding, it is huge!) has 1 GB of RAM in it !! When I bought my first computer in college in 2003, my PC had a RAM of 256 MB :P . No wonder, I could never play Angry Birds on it! :P
Its just the battery life of this phone (with the gigantic screen), that makes me miss my old Nokia at times! With heavy internet usage, both over wi-fi and 3G, the phone needs recharging at-least once a day!! Whereas, my Nokia used to remain alive for close to 3 days, with regular calls and Tweeting !
But then, there is no point buying such a feature rich phone and not exploit it fully ! Sigh!
Anyways, let me use it for a month more at-least, before I review this phone fully. Hopefully by then I will have the latest version of Android - Ice Cream Sandwich - on it, as it is currently running on Android 2.3.3 ! :(
Till then, go back to work! Jab dekho time pass karne chale aate hain! :D
PS: You can buy Samsung Galaxy S II from Flipkart.com as well !
