The thing is you can pick the Atrix up new for around £250 if you look about, there is no way in the world you can get a GS2 for that price new. Stick a custom rom on the Atrix and you have a fantastic phone for the price.

Thanks for the comparison. What would be helpful though is for you to have the specs (at the start) written on the screen as you read them out. This will greatly alleviate the stress on my small brain trying to remember the first phone's specs and whether it is better or worse.

@whitefangex but you have more subpixels on the gs2... lets do the math: S2: 480x800= 384000 pixels. 384000x 3 sub pixels (RGB)=1 152 000 sub pixels atrix: 960x540=518400 pixels. 518400x 2 sub pixels (pentile- RGBG)=1 036 800 sub pixels so no, not only does the S2 process more sub pixels than the atrix, but it also beats it. this is coming from an atrix user. but it is true that it is 2.2 vs 2.3.

@Horcrux3inCreation Screen problem, it might be an amazing screan 'Super Amoled Plus' but the downside is the yellow patch on the left side (when brightness is fully down) and screen burn (screen colour distorts etc), which needs a new phone.

It doesn't need to be mentioned, commercially available mobile phones have been around for nearly 30 years and no one has ever been affected by radiation from a mobile phone. Infact, telephones have been used for over 150 years and still no one has ever been affected, and ordinary household telephones emit a greater amount of radiation than mobile phones. Also these phones emit an average amount of radiation, its not a great amount at all.

You can't comment on the quality of the screens from a youtube video. Besides it's a matter of preference. As much as I like amoled, it's been proven to screw color up.

So on top of the Atrix being faster in general, it also handles higher quality graphics a lot better and faster than the SGS2. I have never felt the need to go above 750MHz on my Atrix. It's always been extremely smooth unlike my friends SGS2 that was extremely sluggish at 800MHz. All-in-all, it's a win for the Atri 4G. ;] pt2

@AmphysvenaCorp - Galaxy and Atrix's battery life is acutally not too far apart. -Screen resolution is just a little bit better on the Atrix, but the super amoled plus is the best display out there. I would know because I have it and it's gorgeous. - Galaxy has 1.2 dual core exynos processor, probably the fastest processor on a phone out there right now. -Galaxy is an average size now and you don't even notice the size because it's extremely light and thin. - Galaxy has better browser -etc...

A bit unfair, the Atrix was running 2.2 while the SG2 was running the more optimized and quicker 2.3 version of Android. Plus in the app startup test, much of the difference between the opening speed of the different apps was that the guy tapped the SG2 screen a bit faster. I don't think it was conscious, maybe he's right-handed and doesn't notice a difference. Also, whites on the SG2 looked a bit reddish to me, maybe it's a trick of the camera. I think both are good, SG2 likely a bit better.

A deblurred Atrix 4G beats the SGS2 in every way involving performance. Underclocked at 750MHz running CM7, my Atrix beat my friends SGS2 in every benchmark. After he rooted his SGS2 and loaded it with CM7, my Atrix still surpassed his SGS2 at 1GHz. There are a lot of complaints about the Tegra 2 but it IS the faster of the two processors by a long shot.On top of that, the Atrix screen resolution is 540x960 while the SGS2 is 480x800. pt1

Also I checked your website, and considering the technology required for telephones to do the job they are for radiation from mobile phones is unavoidable, especially from a sticker that you sell. The only way to stop a phone from emitting radiation is to change the way the technology works, which would mean not using microwaves, which just isn't possible at this time. No matter of stickers will stop radiation

@sack943 so true, atrix is still on froyo right? also im pretty sure that nvidia updated there drivers & if its anything like the desktop drivers then it'll get higher benchmark scores than before maybe higher than the galaxy2. seeing how the galaxy R beats the galaxy s2 by a mile, galaxy R is the tegra2 version of the galaxy s2 & it kills those high benchmark scores the mali400 was getting, its crazy but i think that nvidia is holding out until competition comes along then they raise speed up.
