Desire HD: Same proc as Incredible S, Worse battery life and build quality, camera not as good as Incredible S.
Incredible S: Same proc as Desire HD, S-LCD screen, Better battery life and build quality, camera is the best of the 3, has front camera, but has a locked bootloader(or so i heard)
SGS: Best GPU to date, S-AMOLED screen, has front camera, plenty of roms, but has gps and lag issues. Can be fixed though.

Pardon me but, except front-facing camera part, how Incredible S's camera is better than other two? blink.gif

1st: Get the Incredible S at RM1800. Higher ram and better build quality.
2nd: Acer Liquid Metal. Flash compatible, 3.6" screen size and android 2.2 at RM 1100
Incredible S. 1.8k, 2nd highest available ram period, latest android coming q2. 4.3" screen. Same as DHD but better battery life.
x10 DOES NOT HAVE A LOCKED BOOTLOADER. THERE ARE CUSTOM ROMS FOR IT. If you don't mind the idea of not getting any future updates, get the Acer Liquid Metal. Has superior build quality compared to the x10, more ram, smaller more vibrant screen, but a suckier camera.
LG Optimus One has been confirmed to get gingerbread directly from LG.
Ace would most probably get Gingerbread then nothing else. But both of them do not support flash but Ace has a better processor(Overclocked MSM7227)

Samsung Galaxy II: Average battery life, best screen, dual core but IMO the build quality is also average
HTC Desire S: Supposedly good battery life, Single core Q8255, Average 3.6" S-LCD screen, GPS is good and build quality is above average
Incredible S: Below average battery life, Single core Q8255, 4.3" S-LCD, speed should be slower than the Desire S or the SGS2 from rendering a bigger screen. Build quality above average
Nexus S: Vanilla, should have best battery life compared to all these phones, single core Hummingbird, SGS GPU, S-AMOLED screen, Build quality average.

IMO wait for Desire S or get the SGS2

SGS 2 for Dual core and better camera
Desire S for single core and better build quality.

I want to clarify few mistakes you made, since first post.

Incredible S DOES NOT have a better camera than Desire HD. Both are the same with 8 MP camera, dual LED flash. Except the fact that, Incredible S have Front-camera (1.3MP) which DHD have nothing.

Incredible S is using S-LCD (Desire HD is LCD only). But Incredible S DOES NOT have 4.3". Its only 4.0", whereby DHD is 4.3".

As for the build quality, I will not agree with you, but I won't argue with it, as different people have different opinion. Some may think IS's build is better, some for DHD. Both have pros and cons.. Surely some will prefer aluminum casing over plastic casing, and vice versa.

Just my corrections, no hard feelings smile.gif
