photon vs sgs2 vs prime?
really like the look of the sgs 2 but hate the sorry support from samsung , also a friend of mine has a motorola android and he has had a lot of lag/freeze/reboots on that phone so was wondering if that would be the case with the photon. the prime dont know much about it besides being android to the core but have no idea when its gonna be released.

i use the phone a lot for business, emails,sms,mms, web browsing, conference calls, downloading/uploading attachments, word, pdf xcel files. Gaming, hearing music, watching videos taking a lot pixs and a front facing camera is a must.

so what you guys think
The SGS2 is better then the photon...I won't compare it to the prime though because well we haven't seen it yet so I can't comment on something with so little info about it...

What I will tell you is this: SGS2 has a lot of business features integrated like hardware encryption of data and etc...

As far as office goes Motorola gives you free QuickOffice while Samsung includes Polaris Office I think..

To note the sprint SGS2 has a 4.5" screen and Motorola has a 4.3" so it depends on your preference in real-estate there...for movies though nothing can beat Super AMOLED Plus...

Now as for music..it depends on what chipset they ended up using..Yamaha on the original SGS2 and not the better Wolfson thats on the SGS..so don't expect any miracles in that department...but it should still be on par or better then the photon in that respect.

The camera on the SGS2 is top notch from what I hear and the front facing camera is 2mp and isn't too bad either..

As for the photon..most of lag comes from moto blur ui..the photon has motoblur lite which should be less intensive...

Overall though the sgs2 > photon 4g..as for the nexus prime...the prime is probably going to be better (I mean sgs2 came out in europe months ago...wheras nexus prime is new device) but again we don't have all the details yet..
