Took them long enough to get a Galaxy S phone at $500.
I'm guessing you probably could it get sooner if you go through AT&T. Actually, I hoping you could because waiting for the GS2 is painful & I need a phone since I returned my Inspire 4G.
I hope it is true. I have been trying to find a release date for quite some time.
I hope it's true also. I'm getting my captivate back from being repaired tomorrow so I will be returning my atrix tomorrow also.
I've tried to like both the inspire and the atrix but for some reason just can't. In my opinion although they may be faster they just don't match up to my captivate. I find myself using my wifes captivate more than my atrix even though she has a pink case on it.

How do you like the Captivate? I have always been an 'HTC Man' and the Infuse will be my first Samsung. Can you compare the Samsung UI to HTC Sense? Anything else that I should be aware of? Thanks.

I think those that are use to sense on the htc phones will need some time to adjust to samsungs ui. I'm mainly basing my judgement on the screen itself which on the captivate is only bettered by the iphone 4 in my experience.
The infuse has an updated version of the screen. They are calling it super amoled plus, it's supposed to look better than the iphone from what I've read.
I tried getting use to sense on the htc inspire 4g but after using my captivate and launcher pro and adw launchers I just couldn't get use to it. Being that your an htc guy you may want to look at the incredible s which is also at the site I listed, from what I've read it will work on att. Not 100% on that but it's worth looking in to.

I've also read today that the sgs2 will be coming in late may and from what ive read the price is going to be pretty hefty. They were talking in the $700.00 range off contract. I don't remember the exact site I saw that on but it seems it won't be cheap.

I was waiting for the gs2, but the dates keep changing on the release date, and who knows what the price will be. Im hoping we can get an infuse section on xda? and DG gets one so we can have some good stuff to flash.
IS it going to release on March 31st

Yea that's how I feel; I always knew the phone was slated to be released here eventually but it got slid under the rug by all of the new phones coming out now. I have an upgrade so it is going to he really hard holding on to it when this releases.

The Captivate is a pretty good phone; fast, has alright battery life, and a great screen, but INO it needs to be rooted and nodded to make it good.
You should definitely get a custom rom on the phone; without putting one on, you're going tovhave to deal without the lag that comes froohone'phone's file system.
The GPS isnt that great either.
All in all, it was a great phone when it came out but it isn't really worth buying now; there are.better phones out there.

Well I have to disagree with FLAC Vest. I happen to think the Captivate is a GREAT phone overall. Yes, you definitely need to put a custom ROM, but doing so makes the performance extremely good and the GPS is just fine if outside or on your dashboard.
The Super AMOLED screen is great, contrast is amazing. I prefer it to the iPhone retina display. Super AMOLED Plus should be even better. I'm really looking forward to the 4.5" screen of the infuse but may wait for a aftermarket battery.
My only gripe with the Captivate is BATTERY, BATTERY, BATTERY. I bought a 3200mah Mugen and it makes a world of difference, I can finally go a whole day without charging instead of 3pm recharges. Only problem is cases don't fit.
I looked at the Atrix because of the bigger battery but it appears that Motorola are almost impossible to put a custom ROM on and the Motoblur interface is consistently bashed on the internet. Just flipping through home screens was DRAMATICALLY slower than my Captivate using ADW Launcher.
@Phytrax
You make some good points, thanks for making that comment. I think we will both agree that the battery life with stock batteries sucks though.
After having the phone for about a month, I bought 2 spare batteries and a ccharger off of eBay; that definitely remedied the problems.

ive had my craptivate since june. My wife has the inspire 4g. As of right now, the inspire is WAY better than the captivate. I have a custom rom, oc/uv etc... and her stock phone is just as fast, gets better battery with a bigger screen and smaller battery? The screen is good. The gps works on hers etc. The captivate is pretty good after you root, rom, tweak the hell out of it, the htc is good out of the box. Thats the difference. At this point, im getting the infuse when it comes out, with the hope that it is good out of the box. If it sucks, im just going return it and get the htc. Samsung gets one more chance from me. The sgs2 is great, but its going to be too pricey, and it probably wont be THAT great, ala MOTOROLA ATRIX. LOL

My wife and I really liked the Inspire 4g but the 1250mah battery scares the hell out of me. Even the talk time numbers show it not lasting as long as the Captivate. I suspect your wife doesn't use her phone as much as you but I'd love to see some real numbers. Maybe you can fully charge both of them and then see how long you can play a certain movie?? With my Mugen battery I can watch a 2 hr movie and have 70% battery left.
I was very impressed with the performance of the Inspire in the store though, much smoother than the Atrix, and the screen was better than I expected.
I personally get better battery life out of my Inspire, but my Cappy needs a new battery. The only thing I miss is the screen--but it's worth the extra speed in my opinion.

The more research I do, the less I am believing the Marh 31st date. (No matter how much I wish it was true) Does anybody else have any info?
I'm also interested in this. I was hoping to use my upgrade on an Atrix, but after hearing about all the issues it has, I think I'll hold out for the Infuse. I have friends that have Galaxy S variants and they seem really happy with their phones.
Maybe I'll just get an iPhone and use it until the Infuse comes out, then jailbreak and unlock it, sell it on eBay and buy the Infuse at full price.

When I had my inspire I got pretty good battery life out of it but just couldn't get use to that screen on it.
Just my opinion but the screen was horrible compared to the captivate screen.
Now I have an atrix sitting in its box waiting and hoping that the infuse does come out on the 31st. If not I might just return the atrix and buy a tablet instead.
I had high hopes for both the inspire and atrix but neither matched up to my captivate. Guess with warm weather coming its time to stop playing with the phones and get the boat ready for bass fishing.
I keep checking the cells4you.com site and they still have the infuse listed as coming on the 31st.
I am hoping to hear something at ctia but its not looking very good on the phone front. Tablets are stealing the show.

Hey, I know that there at already lots of threads that have been created with various people asking whether the infuse is worth getting. But in my situation my decision is a one-time deal then I'm locked in for 18 months again (until im eligible for another upgrade).
So I want to ask whether I should get the Infuse when my upgrade comes in June or should I wait for when the GS2 hopefully hits AT&T in Q3? The GS2 is obviously better than any phone out there currently however I am currently stuck with a Nokia F160 (FML) so I'm anxious to get my hands on a new phone.
What do you guys think I should do?
The question is can u wait? Honestly this phone can be better once the roms drop... the captivate was a great phone that became a much better phone once it had custom roms. If u can get infuse now and some how save say 700 in 3 mths it would be a wise choice. Remember once roms drop the phone will be much better and if u was able to deal with that Nokia for as long as u did I think u can deal with the Infuse for longer.
Just my 2ยข
sent from Infuse but miss my captivate on cont. 5.5.... One day this can be as good...
You will be thrilled with the quality of the screen. It's really mind blowing how great this thing looks. I am having some weird restart issues, but only when I have my SD card installed, so I'm guessing there is some weirdness that they should be able to fix fairly easily. It runs very, very fast and the battery is great. If nothing else, sell your Infuse in 3-4 months for ~400 here, and pay the extra 150-200 to buy the branded SGS2 from att.

I agree. The Infuse has all that I want in a phone, minus some restarting/freezing hiccups that I am certain will be cured with the many roms that are forthcoming.
I may buy the SGS2 in a few months, but actually, at that point in time, I might get an unlocked Hercules - that phone has the bigger screen of the Infuse with the hardware of the SGS2 if not slightly better. Other phones will be coming out in that time too, like the HTC Holiday which seems pretty bad ass. So my two cents is to get the Infuse now, and re-evaluate/sell in a few months when similar dual core versions are made available.
Hope that helps.

SGS2 dualcore battery drain way faster, I read forums sgs2 is a joke on mobile phone. Having a dual core phone make it IMMOBILE phone, they even say yes it is darn fast especially when browsing that's the only plus they see now compare to the infuse, but I was rofl when they mention fast but useless having to look for an outlet every time is a pain in a behind on a mobile phone, that's why I decided to bought the infuse, one even mention buying a sgs2 is similar to buying a lambo that can run 200mph but can only do 65-90mph on the freeway, and sucks more gas and way more expensive than a civic whicj can also do 90mph with less gas, I saw their point, do you?

Hey guys, so I need a little help.
I was wondering if you guys could help decide between the Inspire or the G2x. Which is better in terms of performance, ROMs, hardware, and overall feel etc.
g2x
Haha any reasons why I should get the G2x instead?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I think you should ask that question on the inspire 4g forum also because you are going to get biased reviews from both. Ive played with the inspire 4g yesterday and it was good, didnt get to test any roms because it was s-on but the sense bothered me a bit. Both great phones
To be honest, buying a new phone right now is kind of a dumb idea. Here in like a month and a half the Nexus Prime is coming out, as is the Hercules (probably a rebranded Prime) and a bunch of phones from other manufacturers are coming right behind it.
Only reason not to wait a bit is if you prefer cheap to top-of-the-line, in which case G2Xs are cheap as hell thanks to their infamy.
I would say the G2x, but new phones are coming out soon, as the user above me stated. Better yet, wait a month after the Prime comes out, and even better phone will be out there.
g2x is very good for its price $200 on craigslist for me comes with everything like new and one little screen bleed that is barely noticeable at night on black screen.

I'd wait and either catch the G2x when everyone is trying to sell it for the SGS2 or get something else thats coming out.
I can't believe I'm not in a hurry to jump ship to the Galaxy S2. The Cappy has been such a good experience as a phone and it's still able to do whatever I need it to do. When the Fuze came out I couldn't help but be there the first day to pick one up. I was compelled to have the latest and greatest, and the abilities a new smartphone would allow. The same happened the release day of the Captivate.
Sure, it's had its issues (GPS and capped data speeds come to mind) but between the performance of hardware and the constant ROM updates from the dev community, I just don't feel that compulsion to move on from the Captivate. For me it's been a great phone and it's made me a big fan of Samsung's products. Oh I'll get a Galaxy S2 here in a month or two when the price comes down a bit. But I'm still happy with my Captivate and I'll keep it around as a backup.
ditto
i will likely wait until december unless the deal is too good to pass up.
Want to see what develops with the nexus prime.
Some info claims it will be a Verizon Exclusive but i am skeptical. I think that it is more likely we will see it launch exclusively on verizon with a 30-60 window before other carriers get it....so i am not giving up on the prime....the solid metal body construction alone will be worth the wait...just hope ATT gets it.

I don't feel the need to upgrade from my Captivate either. Its a weird feeling, I use to be such a phone whore, now I look at new phones and feel they can't do a whole lot for me (personally, I know the phones are actually huge upgrades) that my Captivate can't do.
I HATE how ALL of the new phones being announced are so huge! 4.3" isn't TOO bad, but I do prefer my 4" screen. They're just getting bigger too, I want the Nexus Prime so badly, but there's no way I'm getting it with a 4.65" screen. My upgrade isn't until May 2012 and I'm questioning if there will even be a phone out there I like by then.

I'm with you guys. Once the GS II finally came out, I am not as excited. The last ROM I put on is great and until that note comes out, paying 200 for the GS2 isn't so alluring.
Especially with LTE on horizon and the Note, which will be awesome.
It's like an old friend, even knowing something is better out there, I'm not ready to trade in my old worn in shoes

The article says 4.6". It may not be so bad since that probably includes the buttons at the bottom, I'll just have to see it in person, but I still think it will be a very large device.
I'm a captivate owner and I really love it. I will not change it in a while..
The only two things that I don't really like in Captivate are very bad sensitive buttons (well, I replaced screen after it was broken, and than buttons were like that) and very bad battery life, especially with MIUI
But speed and functionality are just grear. And still love the screen with maximum brightness. I think I will buy Galaxy Note or Nexus Prime, will see...
I'm with you guys, but not by choice. I have a contract to fulfil.

I'll also be waiting for the Note.
I just looked up the Galaxy Note. Wow...! That thing looks amazing. It might be just a bit too big but I'm really considering jumping on that.
I'm with you guys. There is no real reason to upgrade just yet. With a good custom ROM (Cog5), it does everything I ask of it, and does it quickly. The screen is just amazing, and only the SAMOLED Plus beats it, if you ask me. Since I'm not on contract, I can switch when I want, but I see nothing out there I just gotta have. The Prime may change that, but if it is CDMA, then I'm out. Big Red is too expensive for my blood.

What is your take on the LG G2X? Is it good? I looked at the specs on LG's website and im liking them. But how does it feel being used every day? Is it better or worse than the SGSII?

Well the sgs2 is average 350+ and they claim it's "like new" or "used for only one week" which I find hard to believe. and the lg g2x average 200+ and I have a pre paid plan from t mobile and love it so I wouldn't be able to get the sgs3 sadly (that phone looks so sexy ) and yes the HTC one s I could most likely get but the people I've talked to about their sgs2 say the the sgs2 is better (I don't see how ) and they use that as their means for being firm about their price.

If I could go back in time, I would wait a week for the SII. It came out a week right after I got the G2x. Stock, I found the G2x to be nearly unbearable. Rooted with custom ROMs, it's good. Not sure how the development community is for the SII, but I'd still probably pick it over the G2x

I just ordered a gently used G2x on ebay (they go around $200, depending on condition). This is a good value for the specs. The Galaxy S2 is $350+, which gets into a new Galaxy Nexus territory. From what I've researched, custom ROMs like CM7 should be pretty stable and fully functional, most of the problems with the G2x are software anyway. Only hardware issue is the camera dust under cover, which I plan to remedy by putting a clear tape over the LED flash, which I normally don't use anyway.
Also LG already announced ICS for Optimus 2X (international version), it's just delayed again to 3rd quarter, once that is out, one of the major problems with current CM9 ROMs should be resolved (no video acceleration or recording).
Speaking from experience, I have both phones.
GS2 wins for stability, just works, and has a better camera than the LG G2X. But..... personally I'm not thrilled with the GS2 device for the sheer size.
I've used G2X for almost a year. You just have to find a ROM you can live with and make tweaks so that it won't freeze/crash while charging. Other than that, phone is solid. CM7 was best ROM and overall performance. Stock gave best battery but I can't stand STOCK ROMs.
But the biggest reason I really switched to the GS2 was sick of the random crazy battery life and the GPS never working when I need it for emergencies.
I made the mistake of not test driving the GS2 on T-mobile store to get a better feel. Big screen with low resolution is what pisses me off, on top of the fact that the size of the phone isn't friendly to my small hands. If I overlook those two flaws, sure its awesome phone.
Also, the T989 just doesn't have a variety of ROMS available and have to wait for the official release from Tmobile, CM7 isn't reliable for it (I love CM7), and has no CM9 love yet.
I might overlook the negatives I have if Dev for T989 picked up. Until then, it works, reliable, and no headaches.

I was astonished at how little there was to look at / choose from in the Samsung forums here.

I was astonished at how little there was to look at / choose from in the Samsung forums here.
bang for your buck? +1 for the G2X
better screen and lots more $$$, go for the s2.

You must be talking about T-Mobile GS2. SGS2 international is one of the best supported devices out there, has official ICS + fully functional CM9.
Sweet, love all the input guys!! Really giving me a lot to work with and make my decision harder xD
I have a few questions, I found an SGS2 CM7 ROM that lists everything as working. And i too love CM7 waiting for AOKP or CM9 to obtain all the awesome features that CM7 has then i'll make the swap.
From what you guys posted it seems like the G2X has better stability and development. And yes i am talking about the SGH-T989 i cannot use the international version on T-Mobile as it doesnt support the 1700mhz frequency so i wont get 3G.
I am really liking the SGS2 ive been on youtube looking at different videos and it looks pretty awesome. Plus the super amoled display is stunning. Also, to the person who commented on the SGS2 having a lower resolution, what exactly do you mean? Are you saying the 800x400 is too small for the size? The screen is only .2 inches bigger than my HD2 which has the same resolution and i dont see it a problem. I might get the SGS2, i do really like the Amoled display. Ugh decisions decisions xD
Thanks all for the awesome information!
Got another question, 7o both phones support more than two finger multi touch?
