QUOTE(hspace @ Apr 5 2011, 10:39 PM) Never thought I'd be posting here since I do solo research.. but this has been bugging me: Really?Battle Royale >> HTC Incredible S vs. Sony Arc <<<<< ????????  IS - no rooting yet, complicated by locked down bootloader? Pretty much 50/50 for now if and when can be rooted - techy/geeky design due to the hunchback, and only in black so far - when placed face down, camera lens touches table. prefer not to have case  - long volume bar not much tactile feedback, easy to mispress - still on Froyo + got HTC Sense, which is one of the better custom skins = HTC Locations for cached maps without needing Internet connection + dual LED flash + front camera Price around RM1,700 (RM1,570 AP) Arc - no root yet, but online comments indicate Sony might actually encourage "responsible" rooting - physical back button reported to be too close to screen, easy to mispress - whites on the screen might be slightly yellowish compared to other phones  - plastic back is fingerprint magnet - no music playback controls on lock screen - no front-facing camera + on Gingerbread 2.3.2 w00t + cool arty design, available in silver, black, blue, etc  + thinner at 8.7mm and lighter  + dedicated camera button, although unfortunately small and hard to press + slightly higher display resolution (854 x 480) + better battery life (1500mAh) > claimed "back lighted Exmor R" camera sensor, but most online reviews show marginal low-light performance only? > Bravia display is also not a big deal according to some reviews Price around RM1,900 (RM1,700 AP) Anyone has any of these phones?? Last I checked it was selling at 2,299  Where can we get the IS at that price? |

QUOTE(xDarkKnightx @ Apr 7 2011, 10:38 AM) DHD has less ram, a smaller battery and a tft screen. IS has more ram, a larger battery, and a SLCD screen. But the IS has a weird shaped back. RAM is the same for both phones.Ace is better with the higher clocked processor. Wildfire has better build quality. I'll go for Ace. Value for money. Added on April 7, 2011, 10:39 am Ace is cheaper but it has less ram, lower resolution, and a 800mhz proc not capable of Flash. Acer Liquid Metal is better overall. Sadly has no support from XDA. The two phones are basically identical, except IS has bigger capacity battery, SLCD screen, and front camera, while the DHD has a bigger screen. |

QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Apr 25 2011, 03:56 PM) i know,but u also can't post at here You knew?Really? Then why did you tell me to go post in garage sales?  If what you meant was no one is allowed to post their own Androids for sale in this thread, then that was exactly what you would have said. And besides, this is an Android recommendation thread, and I have an Android phone to recommend. Just because you did not find that information useful does not mean that no one will, yea? And it's not like I spam this thread advertising it every single day. |

QUOTE(adrianccseng @ Apr 25 2011, 06:09 PM) This is a special thread for everybody out there that need Professional recommendations on BUYING[U] a new handphone... So I guess I am giving mine away for free? And professional recommendations? Really? What kind of qualifications do I need to be considered a professional? QUOTE(adrianccseng @ Apr 25 2011, 06:09 PM) ONE advertisement is still counted as a foul, no matter how much you had contritube to this thread Ok, now you're just being anal. Two things: 1. Check page one. I don't see anything that says we cannot recommend phones from a specific seller. In fact, I see plenty posts from other forumers recommending certain sellers here in LYN. 2. Even if in this case, the seller that I am recommending happens to be myself, again, I do not see it written anywhere that we are only allowed to recommend other sellers but not ourselves. And like I said, even if there were specific rules that I broke, your first post was still odd, telling me to go do something that I have already done. QUOTE(adrianccseng @ Apr 25 2011, 06:09 PM) & HOW useful is a comment asking who willing to buy your DHD? I gave the price, and if anyone is interested, they can click on my sig to get more information.True, not everyone will be interested. But for those who are, then I imagine that would be a pretty useful post, because it gives then one more option for them to compare and consider. So in short, I wasn't spamming anything, I didn't break any rule, and I posted something that could be useful for someone. What is the problem? I suggest you stop it with whatever it is that you think you are trying to do here, and just go back to business as usual, ok? |

QUOTE(adrianccseng @ Apr 25 2011, 10:25 PM) exactly.. Look at what you wrote yourself.yes, u gave them a thought that "hmm, 1.6k i can get DHD" but RECOMMENDATION THREAD is for somebody looking for phone but hesitating/dunno which to get... as this is not your 1st post about ur DHD thing.. but if they really wanted to buy, they could had just do some searching & got ur thread earlier before u have to come over here & ask... This thread is for people who are trying to make up their minds on which phone to get, or whether to get Ori or AP, or brand new or used, FACT. The information that I provided might be useful for someone to help them make up their mind, because like what you yourself wrote, it gave them another thought to consider. As for people doing their own search, then what about this whole thread? There are many reviews online about almost every single phone available, with experts giving their opinion on the phones and which ones to get. Are you saying that people should just go and do their search and read those reviews instead of coming to this thread? The point of this thread is for users to come here and get more information for other people to help them decide. Because frankly speaking who the hell has the time to read through every single thing available online? And that is exactly what you and I are doing here, presenting information that might help others. So if I am not breaking any rules, and what you and I are doing is the same, why are you so upset? |

QUOTE(phantomash @ Apr 26 2011, 11:25 AM) not trying to be on anyone's side, but what you did was ONLY advertising your own sale, The "information" is obviously in my post in Garage Sales. you're only looking for buyers, you did not provide any form of information regarding DHD. if what you did was acceptable in this thread, then everyone who are selling phones can just come here and do just that. then this thread wouldn't be a "recommendation thread" anymore. what you should have did was at least, provide your own opinions regarding your DHD, and share your experience using it, and not just "DHD for 1.6k, any takers?", besides your sig is already obvious enough, any constructive post from you would have helped selling your DHD. In fact, the reason why I kept my post here short and simple is precisely that, to avoid my post from becoming a lengthy advertorial. Now THAT would be inappropriate for this thread. Any lengthy reviews for the DHD should go to where it belongs - the official DHD thread. For me, I presented one of the most important information for a lot of people, the price, and if someone was interested, they can then follow the link and get more information. There's just no pleasing everyone yea? One minute, someone was complaining that I shouldn't have posted here to begin with, the next moment someone says my post wasn't long enough. Seriously guys, I don't know what's with the butthurt going on here, especially the very first guy who started picking on me. |
