Samsung Galaxy S2 or wait for Nexus Prime

[gomcse2002]

I'm getting an SGS2 soon Sunday but I'm not sure if it is better to wait for the Nexus Prime. It still hasn't been announced and it could take months for it to come to Canada. Should I just buy the S2 or wait for NP?

Please kindly advise.

^ I'm somewhat on the same boat

What I'm doing is wait for the Nexus Prime announcement (Google / Samsung announced that it's postponing the announcement from the original October 11th date to a future TBD date) and compare spec to the SGS2.

If what Eric Schmidt said it's true (release by November: no specific date or location given). I'm sure the Prime will be out in Canada before the holiday season.

Might be worth looking into the SGS2 LTE as there's spec upgrades and a bigger screen that'd make it about on par with the Nexus Prime's rumored specs. Probably increased cost in getting an LTE plan though. What the Nexus Prime would really have going for it over the SGS2 is the new Android Ice Cream Sandwich OS

Not to mention the super amoled plus HD screen.

So nobody has ACTUAL guaranteed specs yet right? They're all just rumours?

The screen I believe is confirmed. As well as ICS. But those are the only 2 major things anyways. That and it's a Nexus phone. Do note that even though it's announced at the end of this month we probably won't get it till next year as it's likely going to be a Verizon exclusive for awhile.
