Sandra Vogel, IT journalist and writer of The VogBlog, has posted her expert opinion of the Skypephone S2 on Trusted Reviews – the home of, uh, trusted reviews. The verdict? Highly recommended; a nine out of ten!

In the course of the review, Sandra praises the many improvements made over the original incarnation, in particular the robust build, stylish design and even better internet connectivity:

“It has added Facebook, Windows Live Messenger, an RSS reader (with a 30 feed limit), Google Mail, Google Maps and Google Search to that rolling menu. Then there is general Web browsing to add to the pot. And ordinary voice calls. And the fact that the phone will act as a 3G dongle for your laptop thanks to the provided cables, so hopping onto the 3 network for a bit of HSDPA speed browsing is possible.”

Of course, the focus is still on the flawless Skype integration and the free calls this brings – which is why they call it a Skypephone, after all.

Do you think the S2 deserves a near perfect nine out of ten? Leave a comment after the review and tell her what you think.
