Depends if you are happy to root and flash your phone.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S and it is super fast. I put a different Rom and Kernel on it every 3/4 weeks, so feels like a whole new phone each month.

galaxy s2 has a 1.2ghz dual core processor, 768mb ram, 2gb boot drive and 16gb storage with a micro sd slot. it's the fastest out atm.

This feels a little brittle and would it really last 2 yrs is my question ???

i have one. i have dropped it several times and there's not a mark on it. it's because it's lighter than most phones but don't let that put you off. it's an awesome bit of kit

Wait a few months for the quad core phones to come out, I suspect this may be why the iphone5 is so late... could be waiting for the quad core CPU's to be manufactured.

You know my feelings, the HTC's have solid build quality feel over the likes of Samsung and Sony's (that I've played with) and have a great interface.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
