1. Brand - Any phone
2. Budget. - installment 12 months for the most at 2k
3. Specs - Smooth and multitasking
4. What you need in the phone
    GPS, FB, Games, Browsing

Thinking of getting SGS2. I like the power of SGS2 but i want userability of HTC Sensation. My only concern whether is it the right time to buy or should i wait further for incoming new phones ??

heard LG coming with android n 3D. then strong rumours on iphone 4Gs. help out please ??
*
I suggest you go for Sensation. LG phones are usually over-exaggerated but weak. If you prefer an iPhone, then sorry to say but Android phones are not suitable for you due to the different market segments.

hi all,

Thanks for those who replied my questions. many of them recommended Huawei x5. i would like to ask about the sustainability of the phone. i want to get a realiable phone. Is this phone reliable? due to his price and its from China, i am kinda skeptical about it. any drawbacks for this phone from the phone users?
*


Huawei X5 definitely. Its a mid segment all rounder phone. Definitely no problems and the user base is quite large.

samsung galaxy ace v motorola MOTO ME525, which one is better?

specification comparison

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...4&idPhone2=3912

there's some clarification need to be done.

does moto has gpu in it?

i'm inclined to galaxy ace because it has gpu.

however if MOTO got gpu in it i would probably grab MOTO because it's screen has higher resolution than ace (480 x 854 pixels, 3.7 inches V. 320 x 480 pixels, 3.5 inches),

what i'm afraid is the MOTO couldn't handle the resolution due to lack of gpu.

the price i expect around 750~850 for both phones in Malaysia (lawyat).

thanks in advance. cheers.

All phones, if not Android phones, have GPUs.Without GPUs nothing will be projected. Huawei X5 is my recommendation though. Since you have the budget. Higher specs than most phones at that price.

Hey guys,

Thinking about a phone for my wife. She mainly uses facebook, surfs the web and plays Angry Birds. Oh, battery life is kind of important because she never remembers to charge her phone -.-

I have an Incredible S for awhile now which I'm happy with. Was considering getting one for her as well. Is the price around RM 1500 now at LowYat? Also what about other cheaper options like Optimus One P500? How much are these worth and would it do the above functions?

Open to any other sub-1500 priced phones with solid battery.

Cheers!
*
If you're considering O1, I suggest you go for Huawei X5 instead. Since you have the budget, I suggest you go for Incredible S if you don't mind it being large. Desire S if you're looking for a smaller phone

i was looking thru the android forums and i saw there's some good response in the CSL mi-410, basically a rebranded huawei x6.
it runs gingerbread, has 1gh and 4.1inch screen while huawei x5 is only 800mhz with 3.8 screen.
the RRP is only RM799. have a look at it and let me know what u think. smile.gif

any android phone around 1k?
wan the one tat can take good quality pic n video, good speaker and 3G also
any recommendation?
*
hmm. Good speakers eh. If you don't mind topping up a little(200-300) for SGS then go for it. If not, try the CSL Mi-410. Same specs as SGS but i don't think the audio chip is the same.

well, speakers are not so important tongue.gif
can take nice pic n video, got front camera, wifi n stuffs den ok ald.
*
The phones that takes good quality pictures are all above 1.4k.

If you don't mind topping up that much to get a HTC Incredible S then go for it.

If not, try the CSL Mi-410. Average picture quality. If I'm not mistaken theres a front camera d. All android phones have wifi.

HTC sensation vs Samsung galaxy s ii,which one better?
*
Both rougly the same specs. Screen reso wise, Sensation. But according to users its a little problematic so i suggest you wait for newer batches to come. Incredible S's HT13 batch had severe light leakage issues on the capacitive buttons. But mine(HT14) reduced it.

SGS2 is okay if you can't wait.

samsung has made a good name with the galaxy series, so they think they can just simply sell low end model with galaxy name in it and ppl will buy, but actually most qvga android phones (like galaxy 5) are not really any good. i would go for hvga res or higher.
*
You also have to bring in consideration what the buyer's budget.

Guys just a quick choice. Which phone is better to grab? Prefer BIG font and wide screen.

1) Ideos X5
2) Mi-410
3) SE x10
4) Any phone that around that budget
*
Mi-410 should serve you okay. They all have the same resolution. Value and specs wise Mi-410 wins too.

QUOTE(aristotletan @ Aug 7 2011, 07:02 AM)
LG O2X is the best I think.
My reasons:
-dual core processor
-nvidia tegra
-HDMI output
-IPS panel

Actually 512MB RAM is more than enough already.. Just don't compare with those superior high-end devices like Galaxy S II , Atrix etc...
*
O2x has a lot of faults. Yellow tint, weak camera even though its an 8mp, FC issue(fixed i think).

Overall, its a phone i wouldn't recommend even though it has a dual core.

I suggest you go for the Incredible S as the build quality is really good. Camera is powerful and custom support is quite large.

QUOTE(zlik98 @ Aug 7 2011, 09:27 AM)
Xperia mini pro better or Galaxy Ace betteR?
*
Xperia mini pro definitely. But if you're aiming for a larger screen, I suggest you go for Huawei X5/CSL-Mi410/HTC Incredible S or the other mid-high end phones.

QUOTE(abuhanif81 @ Aug 7 2011, 11:04 AM)
Sifu, I'm looking for android phone that can make video calls to other make; e.g nokia e72? Any advise?
1 more thing, btw HTC desire s and LG 02X, which one is better?
*
Desire S for build quality, problem-less.

O2x is powerful but issues are still lingering around. Camera is also weak even though its an 8mp( I know the size it shoots at doesn't affect the quality though. Only details)


QUOTE(ogiveyakuza @ Aug 7 2011, 12:10 PM)
i dunno which one shuld i buy....sgs2 or atrix...i need powerful fon with gud build quality..sometimes i do my work on fon...my previous fon is e72...n how bout nexus s...
*
SGS2 of course. Its the highest end of phones you can get now.

yup,,

since ur budget is 1k only..

HTC hero is soo old already. almost same spec as CSL Mi300 which is a lot cheaper..

Sensation is almost double ur budget hitting 1.9k
Desire HD is ok. but since its almost same price league as Incredible S.. (1.4k)
depend on ur choice.
bigger LCD go DHD,
smaller package+front camera go Inc S
*
Battery life wise, Incredible S kills DHD badly too.

Dual core phones are mainstream now. SGS2 is better.
