Samsung just don't have a lot of originality in their designs, it's not in the DNA - I can't really think of anything they've that, if not a direct copy of something, wasn't just very bland and generic looking.

Fair play to SE, their android phones are generally quite distinctive, and HTC have tried a few different styles, even LG have the odd one-off design in their phone history (though maybe not in android) but Samsung.. Not so much.

Why does everyone think I am some Samsung fanboy with a short temper?? I am not angry just irritated by people always getting at Samsung. I love most brands have tried most I am no fanboy just tired of hearing Samsung does direct copies of EVERYTHING. They don't & like I said design in many Samsung devices as is NOT a copy maybe slightly similar to others but that is true of many phones. And as for boring design,the Iphone is very boring & Miss UK just months ago you were slagging off the iphone for not changing it's design Please do not say calm down it's just a phone I am not stressed I just get bored & tired of people constantly saying oh it looks like something else. Have you nothing better to say?? I have had my say on Apple & no I don't like them either. But I don't keep going on & on & on about it. Seriously
Phone?? What phone??

If the S II was a copy of the iPhone4 it would have had the same volume buttons, same power button, a silent button and a tiny screen It would not have had removable battery cover and removable battery, it would not have had a memory card slot and the camera would have been different And it would have been to heavy for its size

The Nexus S is imo great looking with a lot of potential

Well said the home button is a different shape too. As for the Nexus looking like a Sensation,where?? The curved screen?? No. The capacitive buttons underneath the display?? No. They are different design & again,most touch screen phones on Android especially have the similar capacitive buttons I do often wonder where this comparison crap will end.

Im not sure if anyone or just Miss UK is aware, those three buttons at the bottom of the Nexus display are actually the screen sAMOLED, they're always on when in the phone menus but disappear when the phone plays videos or in full screen apps. The Galaxy Nexus has no buttons on its front at all, just its screen, sensors, earpiece and a status LED.

So no, its nothing like the Sensation.

I forgot the link to a video but someone asked if those buttons show up the whole time, a video demonstrated otherwise. They show up but when not needed vanish and the video playing goes full screen. Its still not what id like to see, split screen use on a mobile phone. Imagine watching a movie and not being forced to pause it to write a sms, if the movie would still play either split screen or in a small postage size stamp corner of the screen whilst you use the phone for another feature. Its something ive always wanted and something i think might be possible with quad core processors and Jellybean.. ?

Well,in my GS2 there is a setting where you can choose weather to have the capacitive buttons on,all the time,or just in the dark. So although it's not buttons on this model it may still have similar setting we hope.
