Apparently both are the same phones
Has anyone got their hands on them yet?
The Skyrocket is i believe the same Galaxy S II that rogers is selling so you can always look at that one
Edit: They seem pretty similar except with different frequencies
seem typical waiting for hands one.
I got the Samsung Galaxy s2 lte Korean model..... Can i use the rom of AT&T on mine?
Hi!
Are Skyrocket i727 and LTE i9210 the same phones?
as they may look the same, it is a korean phone. it definetly has a completely different radio,kernal im pretty sure is different too. i think the only actual similarity is the android software
quick question...I have both the sprint and Tmo variants of the galaxy s2 and have a chance to pick up a skyrocket at a decent price. Which galaxy s2 do I all prefer? I originally picked up the t989 but it appears to be the sidekick 4g's bastard cousin and gets the least support due to the one off processor. Who wins the s2 fight? Btw any suggestions on new apps/roms/kernels whatever to try out?

Stay away from the skyrocket unless you neeeeeeeeeed lte that badly. It uses a snapdragon chip, which blows. The normal galaxy s2 uses an exynos chipset which is very good. Get the sprint model, make sure its not the skyrocket and youre set
my d710 of galaxy s2 is very good.!
In terms of device performance, definitely Sprint's Epic 4G Touch. It has all the same hardware as the international S2, plus an LED notification light, 4.5 inch screen and WiMax 4G, and a bigger battery. The Skyrocket has the same processor as the 989 because Exynos doesn't do LTE just like it doesn't do T-Mobile's funky AWS 3G frequency.
The Epic 4G Touch and i777 (AT&T original S2) are the best. Out of those two the AT&T model is the best in terms of ROM support, but the Epic 4G Touch is better because of the bigger screen, LED notification and bigger battery. The AT&T version can run all of the i9100 ROMs with some tweaking and it has NFC, which the Epic 4G Touch doesn't.
I currently have a epic touch 4g from sprint and dont get me wrong its a "good" phone but coming from a htc evo 4g it seems that my evo was way faster then my gs2. It could just be sprint slacking on my service but its a noticable lag. Now the evo lte seems appealing to me but was thinking is it worth it?
Hi all,
Was interested in picking up the new Bell Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE and was wondering if it was the same as the Skyrocket?
Would be interested in flashing the radio so it could be used with WInd Mobile's networks etc.
Thoughts?
