QUOTE(SihamZhai @ Apr 15 2011, 06:47 PM) Get matte screen protector if you dont want finger prints all over it. But you reduce visibility. And support meaning updates on software / OS. I personally would go for the support and the community. Therefore I pick Samsung thanks for the advice , really appreciate it . you think i can get motorola defy for 1.2k ? it's really catching my eye . |

QUOTE(xDarkKnightx @ Apr 18 2011, 07:43 PM) x10. Better camera and confirmed to have 2.3 "sometime" soon. thanks alot , ALM custom support is no good ? Then i should go for xperia x10 right ? custom support is good , 2.3 promised to be out , camera is much better . now i'm torn between these two . processor i know x10 is better , but the RAM of ALM is twice of X10 ? SL has less ram and a camera with no flash. Also has a nerfed GPU. The only upside is the SC-LCD screen. LG Optimus 2x but i wouldn't recommend it because it has a few issues. Constant reboot, yellow tint below the screen, and a few others. It is already here btw. Selling for RM1899 Defy for being shock proof, water proof, and the Q7230 with 512mb ram. Stupid Motoblur is present though. x10. Better camera and confirmed to have 2.3 "sometime" soon. 1ghz snapdragon. ALM. Sub par camera, Q7230 processor, 512mb ram, Stock android, but has no custom support. Aluminium battery cover. Performance wise: ALM/Defy Camera wise:x10 Durability wise: Defy Custom rom wise:x10 Value wise:ALM Screen wise: ALM uses an OLED screen IINM/Defy Gorilla glass Personal recommendation: Defy if you tend to infuse physical damage on your phone frequently. x10 if you tend to use the camera alot. ALM if you're not any of these. conclusion ? Added on April 20, 2011, 12:09 pmcolours display of x10 is 65k where as ALM is 16M , does this make a big difference in the screen graphics so and so ? and not to forget that x10 only has dual touch ? if i got that right , and the ALM has multi touch or something like that . explanation ?
