QUOTE(Peculator @ Apr 23 2011, 12:59 PM) 1. Brand - SE Arc or Samsung Galaxy S II Take Arc. Worth every penny. Excellent camera and display. Sexy design.2. Budget - 2k 3. Specs - Proc as fast as possible, dual-core 4. What you need in the phone - Music, internet browsing, camera. Although Arc doesn't have dual-core, it still included in my wishlist. Both of them using Gingerbread so nothing to be compared except some minor UIs differences. Listening to music most of the time and radio as well taking snapshots for randomness and frequent web browsing. Currently using Satio with SPB Mobile Shell mode. I was thinking of Optimus 2X and when I saw the Arc just love at first sign. Technology always be outdated soon, so best to get best visually design phone for me. |

QUOTE(Peculator @ Apr 24 2011, 09:18 AM) How's the speaker sound, is it good enough? Speaker are good and loud. Buy ori and you gret sony bluetooth stereo headset free. All at 2000.My main concern is the listening to music on the go. I knew beforehand that SGS2 wouldn't price-tagged for 2k. It's for specific brand model |

QUOTE(xDarkKnightx @ Apr 29 2011, 04:33 PM) Engadget review pointed out that the BRAVIA display or the EXEMOR camera isn't really as good as it was advertised. I have x10 and Arc. I cam say its major improvement in picture and display quality.Added on April 29, 2011, 3:35 pm Your previous statements in v1 were really biased. Fanboy? Yes. Your statements speak as if you're a Motorola cybertrooper. I plan to get SGS2 as well. Lets see how the differences. I believe your only speculating from what Engaged review. Don't believe there is a better android phone camera rather that the Arc. |

Incredible S? 1799? Or should try LG Optimus 2X with dual core.
Desire HD is not bad but old model or the best camera phone with large screen and android 2.3 is Xperia Arc. |

QUOTE(Sunshines @ May 2 2011, 07:21 PM) if i buy the phone now, i will have to upgrade it to 2.3 myself later on? The 2.3 update from SE is very simple. Just plug in the cable and install the software then follow the instruction and your done.if i buy the phone later, will the phone come with 2.3 ?? thanks the thing im worried when buying acer phone is the community support. i dont see many users and developers around. should it be an issue when it comes to choosing a phone?? another thing is the resale value of acer phones. will it be significantly lower than se phones?? No need to worry. |

QUOTE(djlake @ May 12 2011, 11:25 PM) Why eh bro? Someone selling AP Set Incredible S at 1650. Best advise I can give you is for Android get at leasy 4.2" and above.And the Dell Streak is at 1900 right? Heh, 5 inch screen or 4 inch screen? So Dell streak is nice but problem a fren face is sometimes to big for the pocket. Why dont consider Xperia ARC AP at 1750? |

QUOTE(djlake @ May 12 2011, 11:41 PM) aight. thanks man. will google it Xperia Arc 2.32 Android with Timescape is quite nice.Btw, a quick one? in terms of User experience, HTC sense is the best. How about LG and Sony? Thanks! A well bragging phone and well enough for day to day use. Optimus 2x is good as dual core but I dont recommend due to 4" screen. Heavy and have some issue with it. |

QUOTE(Dannyl @ May 13 2011, 03:39 PM) I don't recommend SEX10 as anyone's first Android. The stock UI is laggy, you need to spend some time and effort to tweak it (root, flash, etc). For 1st Android phone, I recommend something popular, easily found, has smooth UI, easy to use, good out-of-the-box experience, etc. HTC phones are the best, but with premium pricing. The next best is probably Ace. Acer and Huawei actually provide best bang for the buck, but they're not so popular, so if you have problems, the community might not be able to help. Im using stock rom for X10. no issue and lag for me. And 2.3 is coming it should improve the os performance itself. If user does not know how to update firmware. Just sent to service center. Simple as that. Added on May 13, 2011, 7:48 pm QUOTE(kamikraze @ May 13 2011, 12:07 PM) Screen is too small for me. For Optimus 2x issue please go into the user forum. So far some lagging and yellow tint issue for the phone. Even official Lowyat.net review stated that clearly.This post has been edited by piumiu: May 13 2011, 08:00 PM |

QUOTE(Dannyl @ May 16 2011, 11:26 AM) You're using stock ROM for X10 without tweaks and there is no issue and lag? You must be the lucky one (or have low expectations). My factory-resetted stock UI was laggy as hell compared to lower-end models like Legend and Ace. Even the app drawer scrolling lags. Rooted, JIT-ed, removed crap like Timescape, Mediascape, etc, and it's all good now Latest update and stock firmware and not even rooted. Browsing, normal apps, taking pictures and video, music and video playback, quite a lof of games and no issue so far and i used to have 2 x10 original set with 1 month apart. Sold 1 and bought Arc.Added on May 16, 2011, 4:39 pm QUOTE(shahriranuar @ May 16 2011, 12:49 PM) X10, bigger screen, better camera. Update 2.3 coming soon.This post has been edited by piumiu: May 16 2011, 04:39 PM |
