Xperia Neo should do good for your requirements but its almost impossible for the battery to last three days.

SE Xperia Neo/CSL Mi-410/Huawei X5. Huawei X5 has better build quality than the former two though.

camera definately xperia neo but battery life of that phone im not sure.
my Samsung Galaxy Ace can last up to 4 days(but normally 3 days) if just moderate gaming and calls/sms or maybe a lil wifi. But if on 3G for the whole day, battery most prob will last only max 1 day sad.gif if moderate 3G usage, u agak-agak urself la.
for ace's camera, i think its quite decent for 5mp

RAY is 3.3" which i think it might be too small for him. Try SE Arc currently AP price RM13xx. He would be familiar since he used an x10 before this.

I'm was not planning on getting AP sets actually tongue.gif . The other day i was checking out SE Neo at a shop/booth in Low Yat and the fella there recommended me Samsung Ace which he was using as his personal phone and i find it quite small for me screen size wise. What about other Samsung and HTC phones? any good recommendation?

Ace is a bad choice.
What do you mean by you're afraid that the X5 is not stable?

Sound quality wise, if you're not planning to use a decent audiophile grade headphone, it doesn't really matter. The difference is not significant.

IMO, HTC Incredible S should fit your requirements as Ori sets can be gotten for around 1.5k these days.

The design is quite unique and the build quality is satisfying as I was a previous user. Battery life wise, it lasts up to 2 days for me with moderate usage. The camera is also quite powerful.

Looking for new phone, within next 2-3 months most likely... Current phone is Nokia E71 (haven't updated the firmware since I bought it in 2008, paiseh)


1. HTC or Samsung preferably, but any Droid smartphone that fits can consider.


2. ~RM1200-RM1400; if there's any RM1k and below I will be *very* happy (I know not likely to happen though).


3. Good screen sensitivity and user friendly UI, big screen (but not too big); WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G a must (I like broad connectivity options), app friendly installation wise (might install quite a lot of apps), good battery life (1 day plus or more on normal usage with WiFi but not 3G) don't care so much about camera or looks as long as they're decent-- hopefully fast performance with no lag or hung apps so good processor and RAM and memory required. Hopefully coming with newest Android system, or if not, can be rooted easily. GPS would be nice too.


4. Size is not really an issue, so long as it's not too much bigger or heavier than my E71 (114 x 57 x 10 mm, 127 g). Will be using mostly for normal phone functions, emphasis on SMS and calls; reading ebooks and text-heavy documents a lot, surf the internet with Facebooking, play games (what else is App Market for LOL). Flash a bonus but not really necessary.

Sound quality: as long as the voice quality is loud and clear both on speaker and normal headset, and ringtones don't sound too tinny, it will be acceptable. I don't really listen to music from my phone.

Lastly, the phone needs to be solid with good build quality-- I can't afford a phone that will die if you drop it by accident on the floor. I really don't care if it looks fugly as long as it works very well and can stand rough handling.


I was considering HTC Salsa before this as I saw this place selling ori set for RM900 (supposedly ori anyway) but someone told me it wasn't really that good for what I'd be doing with my phone. Sifus please advise! Thank you.

Salsa is more of a social networking phone. Unless you're a facebook/twitter enthusiast, its pretty much useless to you.

1k and below, there's only two decent phone to recommend you. Huawei X5 and CSL MI-410. The latter has a 200mhz advantage over the former but the difference is not huge. Since your budget is around 1.4k and you read text heavy documents, I would suggest you get the HTC Incredible S. The screen is not as saturated and as overwhelming as phones with S-AMOLED screens so it won't be hard on your eyes. The camera is pretty powerful too. HTC's phones are famous for having good build quality so that's one thing you don't have to worry about. Just get a decent casing.

Size wise, its more or less the same as your E71 but you'll have to go try it out yourself.

The extra 400mhz boost does nothing and this phone is pretty overpriced for its specs.

I would pick the Desire S due to the superior build quality and the adreno205 is sufficient for current games. The s-amoled is a bonus though.
