QUOTE(mia_sara @ Dec 27 2011, 04:49 PM) i've never change my phone for the past 6 years, now i'm thinking of buying new phone since my phone which is SE Z520 got problem i like samsung galaxy S2 and note, but can;t decide which one to buy my friend said that, since i'm new to android i should buy simple android phone like samsung galaxy ace, galaxy wonder. can u guys help me , please? You better try first before deciding. Who knows, maybe you're iOS kind of guy. Better be sure before spending 2k on Note and then trying iPhone 4S and falling in love with it. Whatever phone you choose, it's certainly not going to last 6 years. Phones these days are a lot more sophisticated and fragile

QUOTE(xproc @ Dec 28 2011, 06:04 PM) from a htc user... i would recommend Samsung.. HTC sense is nice... but it make your phone slow... same hardware... sense = slow... others= fast.. htc got many fancy fancy function... but you will almost for about it after 2 weeks of playing... those is gimmick.. what most important is speed of your ROM, where sense= resources hogging, battery draining... beside inside, the outlook, screen size weight , battery life need to be consider also... htc slcd screen perform very bad under the sunlight = almost cannot see... also, if when you decide to root your phone... any software inside is does not matter, you need the most flagship phone where developer concentrate on it... hardware wise is most important... anyway, htc phone= 2 years warranty, and quite durable also... 2-3 times drop (about 1 meter), still going strong, where if is iPhone = GG So, if hardware is most important, then don't have to worry about Sense... can just flash Sense-less ROMs  HTC phones are the most supported in CyanogenMod and MIUI.

QUOTE(droid13579 @ Jan 5 2012, 09:55 AM) As for ICS, do you want pure google or timescape? There's always CM9, MIUI, or some other ROM. It's Android after all. Arc > Nexus S for me. But I dislike hard buttons.

QUOTE(droid13579 @ Jan 6 2012, 12:02 AM) What is the point having more extra processor speed and drain extra juice while you won't need an extra 400Mhz to run basic applications? Unless you are in heavy multitasking. Actually, does Android scale the CPU speed on demand? Even without apps like Overclock Widget, I noticed my CPU usage spans across a range of clock speeds when viewed in CPU Spy, from around 200Mhz to max speed QUOTE(kidmad @ Jan 6 2012, 07:04 AM) at the moment, i think SE camera on their android is leading the way. Even SGS2 is on part with SE xperia mini pro only. IMO la when i compare those pictures taken on my SGS2 vs xperia mini pro. You view on phone or on PC?
