Subzero test shows that the Galaxy S II and cheapo Nokias are your best bet when chasing The Thing

0. phoneArena posted on 06 Feb 2012, 07:54

The Galaxy S II needed the temperature to drop to -22 Farhenheit (-30 Celsius) to give up the ghost completely, while the iPhone 4S, for example, started going temperamental at 23 Farhenheit (-5 Celsius) and stopped working at 14 Farhenheit (-10 Celsius). The issue is, of course, mostly with the phones' batteries rather than any other component...

This article came right in time, I used my GS2 at -32 degrees two days ago, without a single sign of sluggishness. The phone was used for around five minutes in the cold, and was kept in my outer jacket pocket, exposed to the cold whole time. All hail samsung.

Hating on a glass phone is different than proven fact.
