Short Review
- The Samsung Galaxy S II 4G I9100M features a sleek and lightweight design, measuring 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5 mm and weighing 116 grams.
- It sports a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing vibrant colors and decent clarity at around 217 ppi.
- Performance is driven by the Exynos 4210 Dual chipset, with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 1GB of RAM, allowing for smooth multitasking.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording at 30fps, while a 2 MP front camera is available for selfies.

- Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is basic compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
