Backflip's version is 1.6(Donut) IIRC. And its not upgradeable. The specs aren't anyway. The G5 is much better if you do not want to waste much money.

1. Brand. (Any)
2. Budget. (below 1.5k)
3. Specs. (Any thing that falls under the budget)
4. What you need in the phone (take picture, Listen to mp3 while in gym, games)

Hi, i'm lookin for a new phone wit the above specs, my fren recommend me htc wildfire, but i read the review....it's saying its occasional lag etc...dunno reliable anot tho....
anyway.. wat u guys think is shud get??

AP Desire for the better processor. Theres also a white version now.

Try HTC Desire bro. Balanced phone with good system support

Go for Desire ... Mine is the white version

1. Brand: Don't care, as long as fulfill criteria number 4
2. Budget: 3k
3. Specs: Don't care, as long as fulfill criteria number 4
4. What you need in the phone: Good user experience. Great performance. Something that not everyone and their aunty and their aunty's maid are all using.

Nexus S. go search nexus s in garage sales. Its a very new phone. Gonna release a few days before christmas. Go for the Gingerbread it has. Good performance too. 2.4k

Hmmm. Yea, that phone generated some interest for me when I first heard about it. Super AMOLED screen is a big plus for me. I didn't know it's already available in garage sales. AP set? Hopefully it will become available from local dealers with FMG warranty soon, like within this month. Now if it somehow magically come with N8's camera and HTC Sense UI, that'd be perfect.

hmm...wat's the retail price of desire now? so desire is better wildfire? lolx...

and...by desire u mean HD...or Z...? lolx

I've pretty much dropped the Nexus S to the bottom of my list, for a variety of reasons. 5 MP camera, no Micro SD card, retarded advertising, etc.

Any other recommendations?

i though backflip can upgrade to 2.1?

Highest end phone you get now is the DHD which is quite shitty in battery life. The screen is only LCD iirc. Not good. You can wait for the LG Star next year which features dual core/8mp 1080p recording.

In a dilemma here..was thinking of buying an android phone after using nokia n78 for 2 years now..

now i'm kinda a bit attracted to htc win 7 phone..i don't know abt the apps for win 7 phones as opposed android..a seller tell me it's better to buy win 7 phone instead od htc desire

my budget is around RM1.5-Rm1.8k

any advise?

any one here with windows 7 phone impression?

Well, after losing my Hero, I didn't get the Desire because at that time, word was the DHD was coming out "soon". Bloody hell, if I knew soon meant half a year later, I would have gone ahead and gotten the Desire and be done with it.

But now that the DHD is out, I'm not that impressed by it anymore, mainly because it took them so damn long to release it, potong stim already. Love became hate.

I looked up LG Star, and yea it sounds good. But I hope it doesn't turn out to be another SGS which I was VERYCLOSE to buying - specs look good on paper only, didn't fully translate into good user experience. Guess I'll have to play with it myself before I decide to get it or not, or at least wait for more in-depth reviews, but yea, this LG Star is definitely near the top of my list right now.

Come on LG, don't be a moron like HTC. Just release the damn phone right here right now and let me take a look at it.


EDIT: But then again, Nexus S has that uncommon appeal. Like "you won't see this phone available in your common phone shop, you common peon" kind of appeal. LG, on the other hand, sounds like something that you buy when you cannot afford a proper phone (sorry LG users). I think for me to seriously consider buying the LG Star, it needs to be WOW. Like really WOW. Like "holy $%#@ where can i get one of that" kind of WOW.

1. Brand: Any
2. Budget: 1500++
3. Specs: Suitable for gaming + media
4. What you need in the phone:Suitable for gaming + media

TQ for any reply.

Yea true. A Nexus S in Malaysia will be a rare sight unless they choose to launch it officially here. The LG Star is the best you've got now. You won't have to change your phone for a year or two if you get it. And sphiroth, go for the Desire. AP is 1.5k. Ori is around 1.8-9. Theres also a new white colour version which looks nicer.

Looking androis OS help my sister. I am using iphone. So there are many phones which any brand out there using android OS. Help me which one better
1. Brand: Any
2. Budget: Max RM1000
3. Specs: better pixel camera, suitable for gaming + media + apps

some one ask me buy HTC Wildfire
TQ

guyz between HTC DHD with SAMSUNG galaxy S.

with 1 more quality,stability,good performance etc

both are android.

I don't think there is a comparison between DHD and SGS at all.

Even the D minus the HD is already a better phone than SGS.


EDIT: Anyway, just sharing this out in public, I have three phones on my list right now - DHD, LG Star, Nexus S.

Nexus S- Plus: You get Gingerbread before anyone else. Probably a very good phone overall. Rare, not many people in Malaysia will be holding it. Minus: Gingerbread advantage is only temporary. Nothing about this phone really stands out. Warranty has to be claimed in US for now. Utterly retarded headache-inducing trailer video.

DHD- Plus: Probably the best Android phone available right now. Heck, probably the best phone overall available right now. Minus: Utterly and royally pissed me off by being made available so damn freaking late. Don't like the phone being associated with the Digi brand. Screen is only TFT, same as my Samsung G600 that I bought more than 3 years ago.

LG Star- Plus: From previews, looks like it's going to be an awesome phone. Like, really awesome. Minus: No confirmed date of availability. Could turn out to be another SGS, only good on paper. Branding issue with LG, LG phones sounds like something that high school kids will save their pocket money for a few months and then go buy.

Going to get either Desire White or Desire HD from senheng, since they have promo now


but can't choose which one to get. the prices for both phones are about the same.

any advice people?

DHD is the newer phone with its own pros and cons.

Desire is the popular phone but kinda old. already 10 months in market.

SO? dilemma.
