you can upgrade either when Samsung releases Android 4.0 or do it manually (voids warranty) through XDA forum.

You will have to wait for a long long time.
SGR is probably Sammy's last priority for ICS.
Is there a CM9 for SGR?
I will still suggest you O2X over SGR.
I had to make some UV script for a friend at XDA;spent last weekend with o2x and the related threads at xda.
Must admit,there are some fantastic devs out there for this wonderful phone.
It is sad,how LG failed to promote such a great product.
The display is so damn beautiful and so underrated!!

Are you a moron or what....you are suggesting 8-11k phone to a person whose budget is of 21k....And in all the threads you post crap i.e.suggest phones which are not good or are not according to the budget of the OP and in the end you right other models from HTC and samsung.
I suggest you to just buzz off and if you wanna suggest then be specific,just suggest one or two models which are according to the budget of the person and fulfill his/her requirement.
What are you trying to show by posting such irrelevant information,do you want to just increase your no. of posts?
MODS please look into this matter seriously.I suggest you to ban this person

But what about the RAM ?
SGR -> 1GB
o2x 512mb
That won't make any big difference in performance ah ??
I don't know - That's y i'm asking !!

RAM does makes a huge difference. Even though i love O2X, i will suggest u to with SGR.

No!At least I did not face any problem.
The biggest problem for o2x was the battery.
Even after some pretty extreme undervolting(with couple of sods) it barely lasted 12hrs on 3g moderate to heavy use,aprox 4 hrs of screen time.
But I used the phone for less than 3 days with a lot of kernel flashes.
Regular user should get better battery life.

@red dragon, do you know how much ram is allotted to the Geforce ULP GPU?
only weak point is 512Mb ram. around 768Mb would have been appropriate.
in my mobile (Optimus One), i usually get 300-320Mb free ram. this is enough for a entrylevel mobile but looking at the specs of O2X, this may be less. moreover with LG filling up all its mobiles with crapwares & a powerful GPU, ram will act as bottleneck for sure. though custom rom should fix this issue easily.

Actually RAM utilization of Android is somewhat different,it is sort of dynamic management of memory.
I think the device I had,showed 370MB of available RAM,rest I guess is for the gpu.
Used 9-10 apps usual apps continuously without closing a single one...always had around 100-150MB of free RAM.
Ask any user here,I doubt anyone will have less than 60MB of free memory.
The stock lg launcher is actually very buggy causing stutters but NEVER had low memory.
Moreover for Android free RAM is basically wasted RAM.

LG O2X is not meant to be run on the stock ROM. you have to install a custom rom straightaway anyway !

my mobile shows 419Mb usable ram i.e. GPU uses 93Mb !!!
the ones with just 256Mb ram usually have very less free memory. used a lowend Android a year ago & free memory was less than 30Mb, with a few apps running in background.
i have used a modified O2X launcher on my mobile for around 2-3 months. no shutter. maybe it was fixed by the one who ported it.
yup. unless the app in memory is keeping the mobile awake all the time. Classic example is Facebook app.

My recommendation is an LG Optimus 2X, LG Optimus Black, Samsung Galaxy SL, or the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro (recently launched).

Just your opinion .....

Get the o2x,spending 30k on a phone does not feel right.
O2X probably has the best dev support at xda(and they are mature enough compared to the stupid and cocky gs2 devs)

Go for the LG Optimus 2X. It's very good VFM at the moment, and the features (and performance) offered for the price are simply incredible. The developer community is also decent enough.
Samsung Galaxy SII has a little issue with its camera. Depending on where the phone is made, Samsung is sourcing different sensor modules to fit onto the Galaxy SII. One of these sensors (a Fujitsu) has some severe problems with video recording as well as worse image quality.
