they said you could return it in 1 week, return it now and get sensation, then return sensation if you aren't satisfied and get the galaxy s ii again :D

I like Sense 3.0 animations.

Galaxy S/Galaxy S 2 design plus build quality is totally crap in front of HTC or Apple


Agreed.

Check the above quoted post.


Stock is Stock. There are always many bugs in the custom ones. I have used each and every launcher none come up to the level of stock. Each has it's own disadvantages.


Yeah that's what you get in Pakistan :D


No it can't :\


o.o

What he said @Muaaz

Don't install go launcher it's a battery drainer! Believe me! Although it's themes are great and it looks great keep it only if you can afford charging mobile every now and then.

HTC For Eternity. One more thing HTC's GPS and Wi-fi equipment is a lot better than Samsung. I get one signal of Wifi in my room on my Galaxy S while full on my Wildfire. HTC's lock on time in GPS is a lot less than Samsung and also what do you call it.. aaah Can't remember it's locks in about 5-6 m(Sensation) whereas Galaxy S 2 locks in 10-20m
This post is full of bullshit.

As much as I love HTC phones, Sensation doesn't attract me one bit. I honestly don't know why people are going crazy over it. Sense 3.0 is not an excuse.

its an epic fail phone. used it yesterday
i agree to that too...maybe the new 2.3.4 update of HTC fixes that lag issues... but somehow the low build of SGS2 is disappointing me...

lol.. u missed the post.. i already Returned and got the Refund..

if u hold it in ur hands... noone will believe its a 57k phone.. it looks like that 25k ones..lol..

@kkkk: I really don't care about the build quality, it's the specs that concern me and GS2 beats every other phone in pretty much every department.

lol.. yeh but trust me 5k loss wasnt a big issue. the prob was that i was not getting a set which I wished for.
You pay fuckin 60k and get a seal opened set which is Debranded and presented as factory unlocked..!! there is something fishy in the sets which HS are selling..

@kkkk: I really don't care about the build quality, it's the specs that concern me and GS2 beats every other phone in pretty much every department.
if u dont care about the build then u shud go for it. First check about thee battery issue with SGS2.. i saw almost everyone with SGS2 complaining that Anroid OS is consuming upto70-80% of battery. and ppl charge the phone at night and hwen wake up its 40-50% left. there is something wrong. I would wait till that bug is fixed.
I installed sense 3 on my Desire :p
how was it on Desire? I am planning to buy the desire temporary for 3 months, probably from ishopping.pk this time. I hope they are selling original ones. anyone had bad experience with them? I would hav bought from Birghtex but they are selling for 37k which is insanely high.
deciding to buy HTC sets is really confusing. Even now sometimes i think I should get the Incredible S and forget about the dual core stuff.
Iam surprised that HTC IS is the only set that has not fallen its price over hte past 3-4 months. it was selling for 47k and now its still for 46k. Unlike the SGS2 which dropped 40% price in less than a month ..lol

^ Ok finally you are ready to tell the world that homeshopping guys are assholes :D
yeah. With time I am thinking and points come in to my mind and initially i was thinking they did a good job of refunding whole of the amount but as the days passes I am learning new facts about them.

I didnt know the DeBranding stuff until a couple of days after the refund I discovered that O2 locked sets dont have any Logo on box and Phone. Searched all O2 sets and none had it, and then I saw a thread where it says how to remove O2 firmware and Install a sim free firmware to make it factory unlocked.

when I searched all this, it clicked in my mind the reason they were not selling a sealed pack set. Since they were opening the set and debranding it and then unlocking the sim and then selling as factory unlocked. Isnt that amazing?? thats the reason they are selling it so cheap.

All I fear if my post reaches them, they are gonna void my warranty which i have on 2 sets which i bought rom them previously ...:( and that is a prob with Unofficial companies that if u take panga with them then u are risking ur warranty with them. Its like we are then blackmailed to be sincere...

well I had the same great experience with them on my previous sets. They sent a sealed pack but with SGS2 set, HS went greedy and starting deceiving customers. I think thats a very negative step taken by them. Just for a few buckes they lost a customer and I think lost many now bcoz of an experience with me.

I was very impressed previosly in Pakistan we have such a good company that is offering such cheap deals at so good services. But now I realize, that all Pakistani online stores are blood suckers. Nones are trust worthy and no pakistani company can ever provide sincere services

Dont you think we should collectively talk to the owner "shayan" and guide him the way we want his company to be... Because i had great experience with them, and now they are loosing that credibility

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
