Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 up for pre order!

Those cheeky chaps at mobilefun.co.uk have the Samsung Galaxy S2 up for pre order. The Galaxy S2 is one of the devices we believe that Samsung are due to announced on Sunday at Mobile World Congress.

Now, I don’t suppose that Samsung are particularly happy with mobilefun for putting the device on their site so early and I expect they may even open a can of whoopass on them. I would. Cheeky beggers!

Anyway, you can see the specs below that mobilefun are advertising and after speaking with some people who know stuff I think the specs are pretty spot on.

Powerful dual-core 1.2GHz Samsung Orion processor

Welcome the next generation of smartphone. Featuring the powerful and efficient 1.2GHz Samsung Orion processor, the Samsung Galaxy S2 is less like a phone and more like a computer in your pocket. Run more powerful programs, record and play back full 1080p HD videos, switch between multiple programs on the fly, and much much more.

Ultra sharp 4.3" Super AMOLED Plus screen

If you thought the screen on the original Galaxy S was good, you haven’t seen anything yet. The Samsung Galaxy S2 features the brand new and exclusive Super AMOLED Plus technology, at a resolution of 800 x 480. This screen has such a high contrast ratio and provides such vivid colours, it’s the closest you can get to lifelike image reproduction on a small screen.

Next-generation Bluetooth 3.0

Transfer files faster and listen to higher fidelity music with the latest Bluetooth 3.0 technology. With a theoretical transfer rate of 24Mbit/s, you can play your music through a Bluetooth 3.0 headset or speaker with no loss of quality at all.

NFC technology for contactless payments and more

Another innovative feature of the Samsung Galaxy S2 is NFC compatibility. Whether using your phone for contactless paymenents, or just to pair with a compatible speaker or headset instantly and seamlessly, NFC technology expands the possibilities of your mobile device.

1GB RAM lets you multitask with ease

In conjunction with the 1.2GHz dual-core Samsung Orion processor, the Galaxy S2 has 1GB of RAM to help power the latest Android apps. Keep more apps open simultaneously, while developers code newer, more functional apps to take advantage of the latest technology.

Comes with Android 2.3 Gingerbread

The Samsung Galaxy S2 is preloaded with the latest version of Andriod, 2.3 Gingerbread. This offers the best in security, functionality and speed, while also providing maximum compatibility with the Android Market’s thousands of apps.

8MP camera with LED flash and 1080p video recording with 1.3MP front-facing camera for video calls

Share your memories with the 8MP camera with 1080p video recording on the Samsung Galaxy S2. Play back your videos with a mini-HDMI port on any HDTV, letting your friends and family see what you’ve been getting up to. Or if you want them to see what you’re doing while you’re doing it, use the best-in-class 1.3MP front-facing camera to show them in real-time.
