Samsung Galaxy S II Wins Prestigious “Best Smartphone Award” At MWC 2012

Samsung Galaxy S II has won  “Best Smartphone Award” At MWC , last year this award was won by Apple iPhone 4.  Samsung has received two highly-respected awards from the recently-held 17th Global Mobile Awards at 2012’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona.

The news comes from Android Central in which they discussed Samsung’s win at the prestigious awards and how the Galaxy S II compares with all the exciting devices announced at MWC such as the HTC One S, Huawei Ascend, Xperia P/U etc. The award-winners were announced by GSMA – the people behind MWC.


Samsung has won two awards: “Device Manufacturer of the Year” and “Best Smartphone” for its Galaxy S II.

Samsung Galaxy S II is powered by a powerful Exynos dual-core chip, 1GB of RAM, excellent optics (8MP/2MP) and comes with a brilliant 4.3” Super AMOLED Plus display. While the Galaxy S II was only released a few months ago, we are already close to seeing the next in line: the hotly-anticipated Galaxy S III which is expected to have a quad-core chip, 1GB+ RAM, 8MP backside-illuminated camera and a 4.8” Super AMOLED HD Plus display.
