1. Brand. (any HTC. Open for other brand oso) 2. Budget. (1k-1.6k) 3. Specs. (the faster it is, the better) 4. What you need in the phone (Preferably battery life, good resolution for gaming)
Want to try out Android, but these stupid maxis/digi packages confuses me. Looking at HTC Wildfire and HTC aria. Which one performs better? Dont really care about Wildfire's FM radio (who listens to them nowadays anyway?) and flash camera... not so important to me oso. Pricing, wildfire very cheap compared to Aria, but Aria better processor and higher resolution. But is the price worth it ke? Both can update to froyo right?

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Oct 2 2010, 04:58 PM) Well both can be updated to froyo but for me i'll take legend instead... Coz better screen n body... But wildfire is cheap but the major let down is the screen as everyone knows... Aria screen reso is same as legend but not the color displayed 256k TFT (Aria) vs 16m Amoled (Legend)... Ur choice... There will be always midrange phone around to fit ur bill but u add in some small amount u can get better one already... Wildfire RM1199 > Aria RM1799 > Legend RM1999 > Desire RM2199 what to choose? All list I the rrp of the phone so ur choice... but duno u still can get legend new set or not... Thanks a lot micheal9413. So Wildfire out already la? Using Digi right now, mls to change to maxis anyway. So legend vs aria is good for me. haha. Hmmm... so the difference between legend and aria is only the color display ah? huge difference meh the display? havent seen the phone in action yet.

QUOTE(lost123 @ Oct 3 2010, 11:12 PM) wait what??? rm1999 for milestone??? ermmmm thats really expensive.. u can get AP set for less than 1.4k.. i heard sum ppl get it for 1.2 to 1.3k as well.. its about the same price as the HTC legend.. and i tink the legend is a better buy compared to the aria, but its specs are nearly the same.. so its juz up to personal preference..
waaa... really ah? where do you normally get those ah? im a bit old fashion, need the qwerty keypad to feel "secured" against the touchscreen. Legend is better ah? thats what a lot of ppl are saying.. but not liking the chin la. Aria looks nicer to me. but pricing aside, milestone specs is still considered at par ke? or better yet, just wait for HTC desire z to come out and releases in malaysia? *surely laaaaaaaagi mahal.. pecah poket*

QUOTE(lost123 @ Oct 4 2010, 12:15 AM) if u want a really good android fone with physical qwerty keypad, then u shud wait for the desire z or milestone 2.. coz the keypad on the current milestone is not very nice.. kinda flat.. u can check the garage sales section of this forum.. u can find ppl selling the milestone and the legend.. or better still wait for the desire z and the milestone 2.. if ur budget is big enough u can get the desire or the galaxy S now.. but sad part is that there is no physical qwerty.. but both are great fones.. both better than milestone and legend (but could vary depending on personal preference) Galaxy s freaking big weih. Desire ah? Will check that phone out. Thanks bro. But probably wait for desire z and droid 2 release. Both should be out by this month right? QUOTE(hazril @ Oct 4 2010, 10:45 AM) i was like u also bro...abit scared with touchscreen keyboard...after only 3 days,its kinda easy to use...u should try it out first bro...  Yes ah? if so, which one would you suggest for beginner like me? Dont want too expensive. Budget around less than 2k la, if can 1.5k. haha!
