To request recommendation, what u need to post:

1. Brand. (HTC/Samsug/LG/Motorola/Others?)
2. Budget. (1.5k-2k)

4. What you need in the phone (Sense UI ? Touch Witz ? Battery life? Form factor?)


Keep it short and concise.

The word 'better' is very subjective, like asking if KFC is better than McDonalds since they are both fast food. Being specific helps us answer your questions better. What do you need in phone, speed? out of the box features? Good camera? Basic stuff really.

Desire HD: Same proc as Incredible S, Worse battery life and build quality, camera not as good as Incredible S.
Incredible S: Same proc as Desire HD, S-LCD screen, Better battery life and build quality, camera is the best of the 3, has front camera, but has a locked bootloader(or so i heard)
SGS: Best GPU to date, S-AMOLED screen, has front camera, plenty of roms, but has gps and lag issues. Can be fixed though.

Both the camera's are the same. Price wise, the desire HD is more expensive atm because the IS is not released yet. AP sets are almost the same price. The only difference is the front-facing camera and the battery.

But the Desire HD life can last a long way if you calibrate the battery or flash a custom rom, something the IS can't do atm due to its locked bootloader. To me, the bootloader is important, I'm leaning more to the DHD side. Plus how can the build quality be worse? DHD is aluminium body..

Worth it.. and the battery depends on usage. Heard that the people in this forums can run the battery for 40 hours on moderate usage. Heavy users can use it for a whole day. They have the secret formula to make it run that long...

iPhone if you're more to games, don't mind paying for games, don't like much customization or have no means to be unique.

Android if you like customization and being unique since there are tons of customization. Making it nearly impossible to have two same phones... We have games and all the iPhone games are being ported already.

IS have 4inch screen, so I prefer DHD that provides 4.3inch.
But do IS have the chance to do bootloader in the future? Any experts on this can answer this?
Also the front facing cam, since they don't support 3G calls, so it doesn't make any difference isit?

RM700+ Nokia x6? Samsung Galaxy Ace + you still have a little cash left to get some accessories. Go to Garage sales and find x137somethingsometh

Nexus S has Vanilla and an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER. Better GPU,S-AMOLED, better battery life, but a higher price. Also has inferior build quality. Dev phone so all OS updates goes to Nexus S 1st.
Incredible S has better build quality, Camera, and also the HTC branding. whistling.gif. Locked bootloader though.

Don't have to. Once the AP sets start distributing, within 2-3 months it'll be around 2.3k or so. Then, after 5-6 months, 2k or so.
