Samsung Galaxy S II Super AMOLED Plus display is great. But the colour like green and red are over saturated from my point of view. Voodoo ScreenTune helps to improve the colour banding issue. But it does not solve the over saturated issue. Therefore, Chainfire3D Pro’s night mode comes to rescue. You can turn red, green and blue colour levels with it.

Yeah… My USB Logitech G5 Laser Mouse is working on Samsung Galaxy S II USB OTG. Hmm… What is the point of a USB mouse working on a smart phone like Samsung Galaxy S2? The right combination should be ~ Samsung Galaxy S2 + Bluetooth mouse & keyboard + TV out through MHL cable. Too bad that I still don’t have the last 3 items. Anyway, check out USB Logitech G5 Laser Mouse Demo on Samsung Galaxy S2 USB OTG. See how mouse performs on Samsung Galaxy S2.
“Hi all. Samsung released both device variants (I9100 and I9100G), which are being released at the same price and provide identical product features (including Super AMOLED plus screen and 1.2 GHz dual-core processor). The difference in chipsets does not impact the overall product performance in any one variant relative to the other. Product packaging remains the same for both variants, although the device type for each model is clearly labeled in the packaging.” In short, Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100 is using Samsung own Exynos 4210 SoC CPU and ARM Mali-400 GPU. And GT-I9100G uses Texas Instruments OMAP4430 CPU and PowerVR SGX540 GPU.
