Samsung announced today Samsung GALAXY S II Plus, which combines the performance of the GALAXY S II phones with nature-inspired user-interface and features. The GALAXY S II Plus runs on Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean). It is powered by an 1.2 GHz dual core processor and has a 4.3" WVGA Super AMOLED Plus display along with an 8MP camera. The phone's rear camera features a zero-lag shutter speed that captures moving objects without delay.



The GALAXY S II Plus also sports a range of additional features:

- Direct Call enables users to automatically dial a call by taking the device to the ear.

- Smart Stay recognizes whether the user is looking at the screen to dim the screen accordingly; while Smart Alert lets users know about missed events or status updates just by picking up the phone.

- Popup Video allows a video to play anywhere on the screen in a resizable pop-up window while simultaneously running other tasks, eliminating the need to close and restart videos when checking new emails or surfing the Web.

- S Voice lets users control the phone using their voice; and Voice Unlock lets users unlock the phone using their own voice.

The 'Buddy photo share' function also allows images to be simultaneously shared with friends pictured in an image directly from the camera or the photo gallery.
