rahmu wrotePeople here seem to dismiss 'design' on account that it's not as geek-hardcore as 'performance'. Ultimately performance, just like the rest, is yet another marketing gimmick. Design is important, at least as much as performance.
I don't see any single reason putting the design and performance on the same level. I would never ever buy a phone just because it looks cool compared to another phone with a better performance. What will the design do ? Anything special ? Attract someone ? In both cases, the design is useless, you're going to use the phone not look at it.
rahmu wroteI own a SGS2 and so far I'm happy. (Well, I'm not happy, it's a crappy phone, but I don't think there's anything better on the market right now; that's a whole other topic).
Crappy ? Can you please explain in details why it's a crappy phone ? And what type of phone will make you happy ? the features you like to see in a phone ? maybe a flying phone for example.
rahmu wroteI might upgrade to ICS, but there's very little features that convinced me. Why change something that works?
Why update you're current Linux OS that you are using ? You're a Linux user, why not stay on one of the first Linux distros released like "Interim". It was working fine i guess.
Also seriously "very little features" convinced you ? It seems you're missing some features. The smoothness of ICS and the new multitasking are more than enough to make you update. Other than the great UI of ICS (AOSP ofcorse not Touchwiz), you said that you put the design and performance on the same level. The S2 comes with Touchwiz and in general it's fucking ugly UI. So in your case, the S2 is not an option.
