u got the phone ad?

Oldkyoo seems not too happy with the phone....it'll be great if all owners can state the pros and cons of this phone....at least we'll get an idea of how good or bad it is compared to others... And i do notice the phone gets extremely warm just like the sgs1...which really sux...and 1 more, hows the BATTERY life????? Good? Bad?

Hope every1 can contribute and give their unbiased and honest feedbacks as i myself also want to get this phone...either sgs2,htc IS or optimus...

Ok guys,this monday i will get a new phone to replace my sohai laggy BB.....now i need everybodys help in here.....

Which phone shud i choose?????

Lg optimus
Htc Incredible s
SGS2

Only reason im still confused is BATTERY life for all, price u pay,and last but not least...hardware and software...

Seeems to me, sgs2 still got issues with the phone getting warm,correct? Do answer n gi e feedbacks...thanks!:)

Managed to get my hands on the LG optimus last night at LG shop...the phone seems ok to me..i wouldnt say its blazing fast and smooth...but it does the job...no lag issues..

Now to try the incredible s, but again out of all my research all htc phones have 1 major problem..BATTERY life...

So im stuck again between these 3 phones...love sense ui, but hardware not very convincing..but its hard to say coz i never own 1..so to all htc users..is it worth buying htc phones??? Wud it be GOOD enuf?? If all of you here answer yes...then ill just get htc instead of sgs2..

I mean sgs2 is freaking awesome but not likely out of the box experience i guess..yes of course,rooting...i might have to get a "rooting for dummies" guide later on...if only it was easy as jailbreaking..is it? Just my 2 cents

Problem now is,cant wait any longer...as my BB is spoiled...So i need a phone by next week...if possible monday...i hope ill be happy with sgs2..or maybe i can get incredible s or optimus2x...

[quote=strictly,May 8 2011, 10:35 AM]It is almost as easy as jailbreaking.

If u wanna get HTC, why not wait for HTC sensation? it's coming out real soon. Uk already taking pre-order.
Since u like sense ui, u must consider Sensation, cos incredible S is not getting the new htc sense 3.0.

http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sense_30_wont_...s-news-2523.php

well unless u root ur incredible s and they port it there. but u nid ur "rooting for dummies" for that again

Edit: OH wait. u cant root since the bootloader is locked.

How much longer do i have to wait... my BB cacat ad...im sick of the constant lag and white scrren of death issues...need a new phone suitable for work..email,notes etc..hence android is the way to go..multiple home screens..


[quote=RedsInHell,May 8 2011, 10:35 AM]bro, why not wait for more user review on sgs2,
by then maybe sensation would be available.
so, check the price & make decison.

handtec already placed pre order for sensation.

Price wud be the issue..i wud wnt to knw when i invest my money it wud be worth the pay..when u compare the phones u see a lot of difeerence in terms of price..from htc IS being cheaper,then lg, and then the sgs2. Hmmm sens ation eh, damn it..i have to say,i like htc..but their battery life is crap to the max..for all models...read thousands user revieews, and they all say the

i wonder why so many people keep say htc better than sgs2 in sgs2 tread ??

Not saying htc is better or not than sgs2 or the other way around...this is the good part of having forums...we get to share info and feedbacks from users and owners of the actual phones...instead of looking at it solely on paper..we get the user - experience feedbacks...wether its biased or not, we would want to know..

Oldkyoo pls let me knw ur feedbacks on the phone!!! Will pm u for more details....btw,does the phone get warm or hot when making calls or just merely using the phone..Coz last time whne i made a written review for the sgs...it gets warm even when making calls...it'll only take less than 10mins to notice the heat..

Btw,u seem like a guy who owns more than 1 device, care to share ur exp regarding o2x? Might opt for o2x or htcis

Great...but talking bout weather,shudnt affect if ur indoors....try just making calls at night in ur hse...make it 10-15 mins long...see if it gets hot...like the sgs 1 i tried,it was really warm when making long period calls, whihc really annoys me coz feels like my ears getting burn..

Well,ill be waiting for ur unofficial "review" of the phone.

no issues with BB getting warm or anything..when i say warm, i mean it will definitely get UNCOMFORTABLE talking..like the sgs1, it gets warm less than 10 mins..which is ridiculous..i mean its a phone, its meant to be used to talk

so for as first timer? shud get htc? incredible S?



this is my point, same like sgs1...the FACT that u have to change from left to right does not equals to warm, instead its HOT!


haihz thats why la...they really emphasize on making the phone SUPER THIN...i dnt get the idea of doing that..doesnt make it any more attractive...ergonomics wise, it feels like its gonna break into 2

Added on May 8, 2011, 5:20 pmso oldkyoo, shud i go for o2x? incredible s? or buy SGS2 tmrw.. coz i dnt have a phone right now.
