Guest glossywhite Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) by the way has anyone got any better deal!! My mate just got one on contract, but after 3 days he says he hates it.

Guest DickieUK Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 Had mine since the 27th, and can confirm there is no reference to NFC on the device. I've read mixed reports, some say the device is sporting the hardware and will receive an update to enable the settings and may require an additional NFC supporting SIM, others say that its only available in certain countries PERIOD. Ive heard 'evidence' for both sides of the argument, including that Samsung have stated they wanted to push NFC in the UK for the 2012 olympics... I know the Korean dump contained an app (NFC.apk), which i thought about instaling, but i have no NFC devices to test it with :/ Dickie

Guest MrChaz Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Can you also confirm if NFC is missing from the UK handset? Just tried a couple of NFC tags and no dice. The standard Tags app isn't there and nor are the config settings. So unless the actual one is different from the demo one I got to play with there's no NFC
Guest davidhorn Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 Picked one up today - unfortunately they made me buy a £10 top up to go with it, but on the bright side the phone was unlocked!
Guest Scottland Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 I've heard a rumor that O2 will stop selling you a PayG S2 due to short stock supply. No idea if it will come back at a higher price or not, so fill yer boots while you can.
Guest l0ck1e Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 Got mine from o2 yesterday £399. Coupled the new phone with a new GiffGaff sim. £10 a month = Unlimited Texts, Unlimited Data and 250 mins Calls. GiffGaff
Guest redmongoose Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 Having played with a sgs2 today I have taken the plunge :mellow: I was really amazed by the weight compared to my dhd Hope it comes unlocked :o Great work on insecure boot as always Paul.

Damn, looks like this might be the case, no stock at all in central Scotland, can't even see it on the O2 website either under payg :mellow:
