Official launch of the SGS 2 shouldn't be far away. And it'll pack the stronger 1.2ghz Exynos too. The AP sets price would drop but the Ori's price would roughly be around 2.2k
*
but got ppl making pre-prder of official SGS 2 which by SME and cost RM2099 wor

Ok, looking to get my first smartphone. Some needs:

1. Budget around RM1,500. Cheaper would be better of course.
2. GPS navigation stuff is really important.
3. Browsing and reading stuff on the phone is really important.
4. Games are somewhat important but not a huge priority.
5. Music capability is appreciated but not really a huge priority.
6. Don't really care about camera or video capabilities.

Also, which are the best smartphone plans in Malaysia?
*
htc desire s from maxis,or buy outside
and u can look for SE xperia neo smile.gif

Hi guys. Now seems like SG2 and HTC Sensation both headon, which is better?

1. Brand - SGS2 vs HTC Sensation
2. Budget - RM 1800 (planning to buy in July or early August)
3. Specs - Browse web, games, video, daily task manager, basically everything to do with daily life smile.gif
4. What you need in the phone - everything?

Between both, please give me your input on which I should go for. Was thinking of changing my P148 celcom to i148 iPhone but the price is still RM 1800 inclusive all. So better get newer phone!
*
there no such brand call SGS 2 and htc sensation hmm.gif
and with ur budget,the best phone that i suggest is go for lg optimus 2x(if u wan dual core) or SE xperia arc(single core and best camera android phone)

QUOTE(devilish_yin @ Jun 3 2011, 02:01 PM)
Current Price if I'm not mistaken
SGS2 = 2.1k
Sensation = 2.4k

in 2 month can drop RM400-800 ka ....
*
drop RM400-RM800 is impossible
if like that then SGS 2 price during september RM1.2k ??
then everyone sure grab it ==

QUOTE(aserap @ Jun 3 2011, 02:09 PM)
i jst knw that samsung will release galaxy s plus,
should i wait for it or i just grap the i9000?
is it so much different btween those two?
i knw the speed is slightly different, is it worth to wait?
*
wait for it,higher processor speed and solve problem that SGS got
if u can't wait,lg optimus black is a good choice ~

1. Brand. (HTC/Samsug/LG/Motorola/Others?)
2. Budget. (1.5k-2k)
3. Specs. (Processor / RAM / OS Version / screen size)
4. What you need in the phone (Sense UI ? Touch Witz ? Battery life? Form factor?)

1. Not important
2. 1.2k to 1.5k
3. Specs. Priority goes to camera picture quality.
4. No other needs.

Looking for Android phone with the best possible camera for that budget... thanks all.

QUOTE(aniyo @ Jun 7 2011, 11:56 PM)
I'm completely new to android phone, have not even tried it out at all.  I was thinking of getting HTC IS (Digi package) or wait for Digi packages for new phones (hopefully SGS2).  But.... who knows when that will be out right?

Is it hard to learn to use android phones?  I mean in terms of tinkering with it's setting, using push mails & browsing.  It's when i see those post on flashing, rom & bricked....that's when i get really confused.

My main concern is push mail & messenger, surf moderately & games/music from time to time.  Basically just to say in touch when I'm not in the office.

Since the 'older' phones (SG S & SL - still not too sure what is the difference between these 2 models) does fulfil my basic requirements.  I could pay less & tried them out first.  I found SGS for RM1.4K at Subang.

But I need experience users input on whether it would be better to just get IS now OR buy older model & upgrade way in the future.
*
depends user bah
me around 1week know more than 50% of it
since ur budget around there,u can consider get SGS/SGS L/lg optimus black/htc desire s/htc incredible s as u say

QUOTE(bro.chester67 @ Jun 8 2011, 11:17 AM)
1. Brand.  No Brand
2. Budget. (1.k-1.5k)
3. Specs. (Can Custom Firm ware or latest firmware can be upgradable)
4. What I need in the phone ...

Adobe Flash must be support
Screen or movement must smooth at least like IOS
RMVB must be support and smooth ( at least i boring can watch movie at this phone)
Slim & Nice Design
Upgradable for future firmware
Battery Last longer compare for Iphone.

I'm still comparing of this few phone such as:

Samsung Galaxy SL = My friend said this phone not bad, in term of my usage is good enough. But don't know why, I still haven't decide yet
Google Nexus S = Upgradable firm ware for future once Android unit releast
Samsung Galasy S2 = New model, dual core performance, but expensive
HTC Flyer/ Samsung Galaxy Tab = Too big for me.. I got Ipad , I need phone
Motorola Charm = Seem too suit for me but software limited
HTC wildfire S = RM 1099, better i go for Galasy SL
SE arc = Slim & nice design but over abit my budget
*
Screen or movement must smooth at least like IOS is to all phone is smooth
if u wan like iOS,u can download the launcher from market
rmvb must support ? download rmvb player from market
slim and nice design = SE xperia arc
Upgradable for future firmware - depends phone,not all phone support
Battery Last longer compare for Iphone - find the higher battery power mAh phone
otherwise,but a spare battery and charger

and at ur budget,SE arc,samsung galaxy s2 TOTALLY out of ur budget,so no need think about it
htc flyer and samsung galaxy tab also out,because its not a phone
so left SGS L,nexus S,motorola charm and htc wildfire s
i suggest u get nexus S / SGS / SGS L / LG Optimus Black / HTC desire s / htc incredible s ~~

if let said we don't talk about the budget, which phone is worth to take ??
It doesn't mean that I paid on it for the phone because of the price, but i paid on the phone as a worth.

It seem like SE ARC and SGS2 will be more ppl suggest, but when i saw Arc is quite suit for me but term of price like cry.gif

I Hope that you advice and suggest me ....
*
erm,arc actually okay edi,but its just got single core with the price around RM2k
which if u wait around half more month,top up abit can go for samsung galaxy s2 already
so,the phone that worth to buy it i think are htc sensation and samsung galaxy s2

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Jun 9 2011, 08:38 AM)
1. Brand -- Ideally 'renowened' brand like htc, samsung
2. Budget -- max is 2.3k. lower is better
3. Specs -- faster is better (see what i will use the phone for...)

4. What you need in the phone:
* MUST HAVE: 3G video calls (not those using apps)
* MUST HAVE: Good & fast camera and video to capture the moments -- especially kids (the run around and hard to get them to stay still).
* 1080p video recording would be nice.
* nice to have flash on the phone (unless it can also take good low light photos without flash)
* gorilla glass would be nice
* play some games like angry birds
* twitter (i know its more an apps, but just stating what i wanna have)
* read news and surf web (smartphones can do all these, i know)
* wifi hotspot (pair with tablets -- so need it to me infrastructure mode, not ad-hoc)

currently using SE k618i. it's a dumbphone (as opposed to smartphone). can't do surfing, etc... but it fulfils my MUST HAVEs.

TIA.

SE xperia arc if u wan best camera
otherwise go for htc sensation or samsung galaxy s 2

QUOTE(nabil123 @ Jun 9 2011, 07:32 PM)
1. Brand. - Xperia X10 & Motorola Defy

2. Budget. - 1.2k and below (don't mind if AP set)

3. Specs. - Android phone (2.2 Froyo and above), not laggy, decent screen size & display, decent camera, enjoyable to surf the net with and 

4. What you need in the phone -

Currently i am torn between Motorola Defy and Xperia X10. The things i need from a phone is in both but then: -

X10 does have Android 2.3 update, better camera and bigger screen. But then it doesn't have multitouch, and the display is inferior compared to defy. Sound quality for both is unknown.

Defy supports multitouch, good display, durable. But the camera is inferior compared to X10, there's no and i don't know if there will be a 2.3 Android update and the screen is smaller.

I don't know which one lags more.

Anyone can break the deadlock for me?

how about look for samsung galaxy SL ??

QUOTE(geniuslai @ Jun 9 2011, 08:09 PM)
