Guys, I need some help...
I'm struggling between Milestone and Milestone XT720...
RM1300 (Msia set) and RM1550 (SG set)

I really fancy the keyboard on Milestone, do you guys think it's really worth it if I were to take Milestone just for the keyboard?

hi there..
IMHO as for the physical keybod.. i dont think we really need it on a such big touch screen devices.

Physical qwerty keyboard will just make your phone bulkier.
I prefer using touch screen only. You can choose to have the virtual keyboard input or the virtual alphanumeric style input.

ohhhhh..... cuz i'm using nk5800 now... don like the small screen T_T...

there's alphanumeric style input? meaning T9 keypad? cool...

Hey, I was in the same boat some months ago. I'm a big qwerty fan having owned a Palm Treo, Centro and Nokia e75. I held off on owning an Android device because of the limited selection of qwerty models. When I decided I had had enough of my e75 at the time (god damned Symbian sucks), I took the plunge and got the Samsung Galaxy S. I knew it was a risk and even as I handed over my credit card, I was still half fixated on the Milestone and its keyboard.

A month down the line, I can safely say that yes, I still do miss the tactile feel of qwerty keys - poking a screen just doesn't feel the same. BUT, it's the overall package that's won me over. Awesome huge screen, blazing performance and a truly active modding community makes using a touch-based device really fun. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised that a touch only phone managed to convert a qwerty advocate like me. I guess what I'm trying to say is not to get fixated on a single feature because the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Good luck deciding!

Plus, you can't really judge a touch experience based on a slow phone with cumbersome UI and a resistive screen (:cough: nokia 5800, n97, n97 mini :cough:). Android is a whole new world!

Thank you so much. I read what you typed and decided.
I had made my decision... I am taking the Milestone XT720

Awesome! The Milestone XT720 looks great!

which is a better android?? milestone with keyboard or the samsung galaxy??

hi guys, just bought htc hero(rm1k) for my lil bro..surprisingly, i like it so i decided to get 1 for myself 2..

my budget is around 1.5k maybe can rob someone(joking ) to get around 1.8k

im totally newbie here about smartphone so do enlighten me

hmmm may i know where can i test the htc phones? I wanna test the smoothness...etc before i purchase the phone

So places like midvalley, time square, one utama or lowyat got such shop that provide more than plastic model?

There is a few maxis center hv it... Depend what u wan, but smoothness Samsung galaxy s and HTC desire is good...

hey what mid range phone is god that have lots of community support like from the xda forums and here as well. I am considering the acer liquid, milestone, and legend. which would be better?or maybe can suggest me another phone oso? my budget is around 1500-1800

u mean Galaxy or Galaxy S, coz theyre different fones, but if u meant Galaxy S then, it is better than the milestone in many ways, but lacks the keyboard..

but if u mean the Galaxy (no S), then the milestone is better..

but if u wanna stick to ur budget, i say that the HTC legend is a good and nice fone to use..

2 more fones u can consider- Motorola Milestone and Motorola XT720 (these 2 fones are also good and nice fones, and they both haf larger screen size)
its up to personal preference, i like the feel of the HTC legend, but i like the larger screen size of the Milestone. Therefore, as i said, its personal preference

Added on August 22, 2010, 12:15 amI would go for the Legend or the Milestone.. the good thing about the milestone is that it has a physical keyboard and has a bigger screen.. but the legend has a slightly faster CPU, and has a nicer feel to the fone..

i would stay away from the acer liquid, coz i tink it lacks some updates..

if u wanna top up another rm100 from ur budget, u can get an AP set HTC desire or Galaxy S, both of which are great fones.

To anyone wishing to try an Android phone, I recommend HTC Wildfire. It's definitely the best Android phone in the budget range. I'm using one right now and have no plans to upgrade to another Android phone.

i wanna buy an android phone for my gf..i have Milestone right now..my range around less than rm1500..any suggestion?wildfire?x10?liquid?

if she wants a good camera and big screen, then x10, but if she wants nice solid feel to a fone coupled with a sense UI, then get the HTC legend, if u wanna get a nice fone, and wanna save more money, then get the wildfire. not so sure abt liquid, but, that fone might have problems in the sense of updates.

X10 lack of updates is the main problem... Would prefer legend or wildfire, but she don mind the quality of the screen of wildfire then it is really good value to buy... Am using 1 now and my gf also say it is jus nice for a normal girl (non tech savy)... Might plan to buy a eta for myself if yr end bonus is ok, then pass the wildfire to her...

legend more than rm1600++ right..i prefer legend..rite now..of cos wildfire on the no 1 list..but she said she like x10..i not prefer x10..better wildfire..hoho

hi, i'm planning to get myself either a htc aria or htc wildfire. which one would you guys recommend? thanks

I prefer the design resolution and screen size of Aria. And its processor is slightly better than wildfire.(almost no different tho) But Aria doesnt have flash.

However if you don't mind having smaller screen, go for wildfire, since the price different is quite big, about rm500+? And the two spec are quite close actually.
