Content:The general features remain the same, but the filling has been modified, which has become more powerful and more modern. If at the time of its launch in 2011, the smartphone was definitely best model in its own way, now it occupies a much more modest position. Now you will no longer be surprised by a 4.3-inch screen with a WVGA screen, 4.3-inch resolution, and an 8-megapixel camera. These specs have become the norm for the mid-range models that the current Galaxy S II Plus is targeting. Internal competition with other models cannot be avoided, but this is the company's policy: to offer the widest possible range of smartphones so that everyone can easily choose the option that suits them.

Appearance
The appearance of the smartphone has remained unchanged, in fact, we are facing the same i9100, which for some reason has lost its pleasant rough matte "back", instead of a glossy finish. On the one hand, this makes it look like modern models, but at the same time, the absence of a slippery surface pleasantly distinguished at one time.
The black color of the body was changed to another, now it is a gray-blue hue. The model looks different, it is not difficult to recognize Samsung products. At that time, emphasis was not yet placed on ergonomic contours, instead of the smooth forms of the body, almost rectangular shapes were proposed, which can be seen in the successor of the famous model.
The assembly is excellent, tight and high-quality fit of the body parts. The dimensions are the same: 125.3x66.1x8.5 mm, the weight is 121 g. The weight has slightly increased, but this difference will be very difficult to feel.
If in 2011 the model seemed large and large, now they are accustomed to such sizes, it has become a common occurrence.
At the top of the front panel is the earpiece, front camera, light and proximity sensor.
At the bottom there will be a large and convenient mechanical Home button, next to which there are a couple of touch zones on the sides, these buttons have backlighting and vibration feedback.
Upstairs is a second noise canceling microphone and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
At the bottom there is another microphone and a microUSB port for connecting a cable or charger.
On the left is a convenient volume control button.
On the right is the screen lock key.
On the back surface at the bottom you can see a characteristic protrusion with two speaker holes made in it. At the top is the 8-megapixel camera lens and LED flash, inscribed in a small insert on the body.
There is a battery inside, it covers the memory card slot, and the SIM card is freely available.
Screen
The diagonal of the screen is 4.27 inches, it is used Super AMOLED Plus-matrix. Resolution 480x800 pixels. Once it was a normal phenomenon for flagships, now the requirements have changed, but the positioning of the smartphone has changed, this is no longer the top class.
The capacitive surface responds perfectly to pressing, there is a multitouch that understands up to 10 simultaneous touches, the surface is protected by glass.
As usual in screens of this type, the colors are very bright, they are not so natural and natural. And if in the new or there is a function that allows you to adjust the color rendition, then there is no such thing, so you have to live with thermonuclear colors. Outside, the data on the screen fades on sunny days.
Performance
The smartphone has a Broadcom BC28155 processor with a frequency of 1.2 GHz and two cores, Broadcom VideoCore IV graphics and 1 GB random access memory... There is 8 GB of its own memory, there is a compartment for a memory card, the phone normally works with large drives: 32 and 64 GB were recognized correctly. The smartphone runs Android 4.0.4, but you can update it to the newer 4.1.2. The device then scores 20-30% more points in benchmarks, the interface works smoother and a little faster. There were no negative aspects, although if we take special cases, for example, the speed of the gallery, then it is clear that the animation does not work very smoothly. But this is solved by third-party software. With built-in support for DivX and XviD, the smartphone looks promising for those who like to watch videos on the go. Quite a lot of file types can be played here without third-party players, which distinguishes the phone from its counterparts.
Interface
The lock screen displays not only such standard information as time and date. If you drag down the status bar, you can quickly access those notifications that fall into it, without having to unlock the device. There is also a line with shortcuts for quickly disabling various functions.
You can unlock your smartphone in different ways. Swipe your finger across the screen; use the tilt of the phone by tapping the screen; face recognition; points; PIN or password. As you can see, standard means can be used to protect the device reliably enough to exclude unauthorized interference.
Below there are 3 shortcuts that will help you quickly launch one of the applications. You can choose any program from among those installed on your smartphone and install it here. Like other new Samsung smartphones, the lock screen displays news, weather, stock prices, and supports gesture control.
The user gets 7 desktops, which are used to place widgets, shortcuts on them, create folders for icons. Excess desktops can be removed if desired, organizing the workspace as conveniently as possible. The icons at the bottom of the screen are configured, out of 5 shortcuts, the first 4 can be changed, and the latter is invariably responsible for accessing the menu. It is allowed to change the size of widgets by stretching them on the screen.
The smartphone menu consists of 20 icons, which are arranged in a matrix of 4x5 characters on several virtual areas. The picture on the main screen acts as a background. You can set your own wallpaper on the lock screen on your smartphone, but it may differ from the image on the display with desktops. A "simplified" version of the menu with simple widgets is also created.
Contacts and calls
The general list includes contacts from both the phone memory and the SIM card, as well as data from account Google or other accounts (Facebook, Google+, ChatON, Skype). An unlimited number of fields can be assigned to a contact. They include different types of phone numbers, e-mail, dates (they are automatically included in the calendar), groups, a ringtone, and additional data.
From the phone book, you can quickly call or write an SMS to a person - you just need to swipe left (call) or right (message) on the line with the name of the subscriber. Contacts can be assigned to different groups, which are assigned an individual signal. There is a Favorites tab - those contacts that are used most often are added to it.
Call history is sorted by date. By selecting a subscriber, you can see what calls and how many times were made. The number is dialed using the virtual keyboard. When you enter a number, the phone automatically displays the contacts stored in the device memory on the screen.
Messages and mail
When sending a message, the phone is able to display the last used numbers, thereby greatly simplifying the search for the recipient. A message can be sent simultaneously to both multiple subscribers and a group created in the smartphone's memory. The device combines correspondence with subscribers into dialogues. The smartphone can automatically delete old SMS if there is no desire to store thousands of archives in the device. When typing, you can cut, copy and paste it.
For typing, the standard Samsung keyboard, which introduced continuous input, a kind of Swype counterpart. There is no Swype itself in the smartphone, but you can install it separately if you like this layout. There are quite a lot of text settings that make it easier to type, vibration feedback, sound, automatic dot placement, if you double-click on the "space", turn on. The language can be switched either with a separate button or with a space bar gesture. There are voice input text that works very well, you can simply dictate phrases without having to use the onscreen keyboard.
The mail client works with various services, everything is quick and easy to configure. You can work with attachments, you can upload pictures or documents, view them on your smartphone. It will also work out and send some data from the phone.
Calendar
The planner is called S Planner. By default, the current month opens, where all important events are highlighted. It is easy to see them, there will be a small mark in each cell on the screen. If you select the one you want, a to-do list will be shown in the lower area of the screen. The current date is highlighted with a blue square. All days of the week are in black except for Sunday, these days are colored red.
A tab with categories opens on the side: year, month, week, day, agenda, task. It helps you quickly move around the calendar. The smartphone helps add additional data using Google, Facebook, Exchange to sync events. New record assigned a name, interval, repeat (once, daily, every weekday, weekly, monthly, yearly). A reminder is set that will work in advance. Additional attached picture or note.
Gallery
The image is broadcast via DLNA, sent via MMS, e-mail, Bluetooth to social services or file storage. Sets the music and animation for the slideshow, as well as the speed of displaying data. Having opened the picture, it will be displayed in full screen. The image is set as the background wallpaper of the main screen or lockscreen, can be assigned to a contact. The speed of the application is not the highest, it is noticeable in the animation effects.
Music player
The smartphone plays various formats, these include MP3, AAC / AAC + / eAAC +, AMR, OGG, AC-3, apt-X, FLAC. So it can play almost anything, including very high quality recordings without losing quality. The player has several categories: everything, lists, albums, artists, mood, folders, external devices. Additional groups are added: genres, authors, years, or remove unnecessary ones. The speed of music playback is adjusted and the timer is turned on.
This will start repeat mode for one song or an entire album, as well as mixed music playback. The volume can be changed with the side key or with a separate icon in the menu. There are both ready-made and a custom equalizer profile.
In terms of sound, the smartphone is on par with the company's models such as Galaxy ace 2 or Galaxy S Advance.
Radio
The receiver supports RDS, works in the background, and, if necessary, turns off after a set time (30 minutes, 1 or 2 hours). The stations are in both automatic and manual mode. Favorite stations are placed in the lower field, which can be flipped to the sides, moving between them. The radio works only with the connected headphones, you can record the transmission to the phone and save it.
Video
The smartphone supports DivX, MPEG4, H.264, H.263, VC-1, VP8, WMV7 / 8, can play almost any video without third-party players. In any case, out of several dozen files tested in AVI and MKV, none of them caused problems with playback. While watching a movie, a scroll bar is displayed on the screen showing the length of the video. The film can be broadcast on external device, the image adjusts to fit the display.
Camera
For shooting, an 8-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash is used. As usual, there is no separate button, so the application is launched from the lock screen or from the menu itself. There is a front-facing 2-megapixel camera.

The South Korean company in January presented an updated version of the ex-flagship smartphone - Galaxy S II Plus. The novelty has received a new chipset with Broadcomm GPU, as well as some other features and improvements. So let's try to focus on what's great about the device and what kind of performance the Galaxy S II Plus can deliver.
Samsung Smartphone Galaxy S II Plus retains the same dimensions as the original, including a slim profile of 125.3x66.1x8.5mm. The version is slightly thicker, but it is also only 8.9 mm. But the weight has slightly increased and now it is 121 grams instead of 116 grams in the classic Samsung I9100.
You'll get interesting smartphone combining the Galaxy S II design and the Galaxy S III finish. The result of this mix is surprisingly good.
The front surface of the device is almost entirely occupied by a display, above which there are a speaker, proximity and light sensors, a front camera and a company logo, under it are control buttons. On one side there is a power / lock button, and on the other - a volume rocker and an eyelet for the cord. At the top there is a 3.5 mm headphone output, and at the bottom there is a microUSB port.
On the back, you can see the camera with LED flash, speaker slots and the company logo.
Note that the assembly of the smartphone is done quite well: there are no squeaks and backlash during operation.
Performance and software
Samsung Galaxy S II Plus is based on a 2-core ARM processor Cortex-A9 with clock frequency 1.2 GHz with Broadcomm Videocore IV GPU (original smartphone used Mali-400MP), 1 GB RAM. The novelty comes with an operating room Android system 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out of the box.
Benchmark Pi performed well, beating old version gadget.
Oddly enough, in the test multi-core processors The Linpack showed a very poor result, much worse than the original Galaxy S II smartphone. But this seems to be due to the fact that this benchmark has problems with devices running Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
In the Quadrant test, the tested gadget easily bypasses its predecessor, yielding only to 4-core devices.
GLBenchmark revealed that the Broadcomm VideoCore IV HW GPU was unable to outperform the Mali-400MP graphics, but came very close to it.
Finally, the SunSpider and Browsermark 2 tests showed different results. And we expect the Galaxy S II to upgrade to Android 4.1 Jell Bean, and it will be able to catch up with the Galaxy S II Plus on these metrics.
Note that the device has 8 GB of internal memory, which can be increased using microSD cards(max. 64 GB).
The smartphone supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, NFC (optional), 3G networks, GPS / A-GPS and FM radio.
The device has a pre-installed software: browser, mail client. Programs for integration with social media, audio and video players and other applications and games.
Screen
The matrix has a resolution of 800x480 pixels, which gives a density of 217 ppi, which is by no means so bad and there is something to see. Of course, the resolution of 1080x720 pixels on the screens of modern flagships shows the picture much better and more clearly. But overall, the display is good, albeit nowhere near as impressive as it was when the Galaxy S II first hit store shelves. The Samsung Galaxy S II Plus uses a 4.3-inch capacitive display made by Super technology AMOLED Plus and protected by a special Gorilla Glass, the same as in the original smartphone. This means you can count on excellent viewing angles, great contrast and excellent brightness levels.
Camera
The Samsung Galaxy S II Plus is equipped with an 8-megapixel camera with LED flash and autofocus function. It allows you to take photos with a maximum resolution of 3264x2448 pixels and record video with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels at 30 frames per second.
The camera software has many functions: touch focus, smiles, continuous shooting, panoramic shooting, can take a photo while shooting a video. Only missing.
The image is obtained good quality... Despite the unfavorable weather conditions, the Galaxy S II Plus managed to take a photo with little noise, the colors are reproduced in natural.
Also, the smartphone is equipped with a 2-megapixel front camera for video communication.
Battery
The gadget received a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1650 mAh, which, as it seems to us, is quite small for a device with a 4.3-inch display. So, one battery charge is enough for 5.5 hours of Internet use or 4 hours of video watching.
Price
The price of Samsung Galaxy S II Plus in the Russian market is 19,990 rubles.
Note that we expected more significant updates, so the screen did not improve at all.

General characteristics
Type of
Determining the type of device (phone or smartphone?) Is quite simple. If you need a simple and inexpensive device for calls and SMS, it is recommended to opt for a telephone. A smartphone is more expensive, but it offers a wide variety of options: games, video, Internet, thousands of programs for all occasions. However, its battery life is significantly shorter than that of a simple phone.
