    Hmmm. Yeah, the Galaxy S II looks pretty awesome. Might get that. It's the same price, so... We'll see. Either that, or the normal EVO.

    Also, the Marquee is actually the same price as the EVO and $100 less than the 3D and Galaxy S II.

      The Galaxy has a sub-standard screen in terms of pixel density. On the plus side, it's enormous, ultra bright and the colours show up very vivid. Just putting that out there.

      Oh and I think it has a 1.2GHz processor.

          EVO and Marquee are $100, 3D and Galaxy S II are $200. I've just heard it gets really bad reception, but I always get that with Sprint, so I'm not too concerned about that one.

          EDIT:

          Also, straight from the Sprint website.

          1.2 GHz Dual core, Exynos, 1200 MHz processor

            you can probably knock a couple bucks off those phone price if you shop around on craigslist and ebay/amazon

            imo go with the evo or the marquee dualcore isnt much right now but then again.......

              I was talking about pixel density. Not the colour range or screen technology.

              @Tiffany: Hooooooooly it's a dual core; it can probably outperform my laptop. But yeah, I reckon the Galaxy is the better phone.

                  oop well in that case both the EVO and the galaxy S2 have the same pixel density at 217 ppi so...

                  also just read that they used gorilla glass for the galaxy s2 so im leaning more towards that

                    ...Gorilla Glass? Isn't that the "unscratchable" stuff used by Apple? I couldn't get a single scratch on my iPod Touch with a flathead screwdriver.

                      Apple doesn't use gorilla glass on the iPod touches.


                      Get the SGSII.

                        I have an SGS2 and my brother has the LG Optimus 3D. SGS2 is by far the better phone between the two.

                        I would also suggest waiting a week or two for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, it's just as good as the SGS2, but with a bigger screen, latest version of the Android OS, bunch of new, awesome features, etc.

                          Well, I don't get paid until the first week of November, so I can't buy it until then anyway, so. ~_~ Just depends on the price, though.
