Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus Announced

The original Samsung Galaxy S2 was one of the first Samsung phones which became extremely popular before the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S3 and now Samsung has decided to get a little more out of the S2 line by announcing the Samsung S2 Plus and the phone comes with pretty much the same specs as the Original Galaxy S2. However unlike its predecessor, the phone has nothing special to ensure that it stands out among the horde of Android devices today. As the pricing of the Samsung Galaxy S2 isn't yet decided, there is no way to know where it actually stands but the newest offering by Samsung fails to make a good first impression, especially considering that the original S2 was so popular when it was released. One way the Galaxy S2 Plus can make an impression is if it releases at a competitive price as the offered specs would be a great buy for an lower-mid tier Android phone.
