A Big, Beautiful Screen for Big, Beautiful Color

1_amoled.jpg The Samsung Galaxy S® II raises the bar on picture quality with the 4.52" Super AMOLED™ Plus Display. Colors are deep and vivid. Detail is razor sharp. It's also energy efficient to prolong battery life. Not only is the color hard to believe, but so is the slender 9.59mm thickness and 4.55 ounce weight. The back is textured to improve grip and reduce fingerprints and smudges. The glass is tough but thin to resist scratches and damage.
