Acer Liquid Metal. RM1060 with 3 years warranty from SenQ.

Flash support with Q7230 processor, 5MP camera, FM radio present, multitouch 4 points.

Has an option to enable stock FroYo. There's been a leaked Gingerbread rom circling around recently. Possible that it might get Gingerbread in a few months.

1. Brand.
Prefer HTC, but other better recommendation will be take in consideration..
2. Budget.
Below 2k.
3. Specs. (Processor / RAM / OS Version / screen size)
At least 1Ghz, OS version doesn't matter right? can upgrade later on.
Prefer 4".
4. What you need in the phone.
Smooth, fast and battery life can last 2 days for normal usage.

HTC Desire S. Only 3.7" but the battery is much better if compared to the IS. Comes with 2.3.3. 1ghz Q8255.

yes, updated, x10 got 2-point-multi-touch so can pinch zooming rclxms.gif
as its current OS is 2.1, maybe will jump 2.2 & straight to 2.3 with flash icon_rolleyes.gif
the hardware is capable of flash support though [FWVGA, same 1GHz proc with HTC Desire]
[ori price]
x10 around ~1.3k
Acer liquid mt s120 RRP = 1099, i saw some 1k @ garage sales though
sgsl around 1.15~1.3k

HTC Desire S. Only 3.7"(hence a much compact device [slightly lighter & smaller) but the battery is much better if compared to the IS. Comes with 2.3.3.

Incredible S got bootloader locked(Desire S also? not sure ~"~)
Desire S is comes with 2.3 while Incredible S comes with 2.2 & wait for update

Desire S 5mp main camera, VGA videocall camera
Incredible S 8mp main camera, 1.3mp videocall camera

obviously, Desire S is cheaper than Incredible S for at least 100 bucks

display type/resolution, processor is totally the same

just "size" matters, so back to own preference icon_rolleyes.gif

oh yeah, another thing is Incredible S has a unique thing
the capacitive key will auto-rotate
user posted image
but basically, just the same usage except looking cool laugh.gif

Hmm. Under 750. If possible try asking him to get a 2nd hand Ace. If not, get a new LG Optimus One.
The Ace has a higher clocked processor and a better camera while the O1 has more ram and better build quality

SGSL has less ram and inferior build quality but a better camera(without flash though). The GPU is also nerfed. SGX530=Adreno 200 while ALM has an Adreno 205.

Acer has more ram, better build quality, high chance of getting gingerbread, and if you buy from SenQ, 3 years warranty will be provided and the price is lower than the SL.

Adreno 200 VS 205, 205 is about 50% more powerful. SCLCD is better but the TFT on the ALM is quite nice too. Pixel density on the ALM would be higher while the SCLCD will display more vibrant colours and often saturated colours. ALM is partially aluminium while the SL is entirely plastic. I'm not sure if SL would get Gingerbread but there already are leaked Gingerbread roms for the ALM. 2.3.3
