Oh ok.. i'll surf around this forum to look for the latest price list. I think i know what phone I will be buying Thanks all for the help

Don't think I go for Desire S though. Most probably IS.

If brand/build quality/firmware is not an issue to you, then its better.

The build quality is definitely inferior to that of the X6 and the stock firmware is known to be buggy and unstable.

new some pro opinion...
SE Arc vs SE Neo vs SGS
these 3 r the phone i am considering at the moment... wat r the pro n con among these 3 other than size of the screen/amoled vs slcd... oso how the availability of custom fw/etc for ea model... thx...

Haha ok. I just recommended the desire s to you because you mentioned a tight budget and you'd prefer something cheaper. The IS is a great choice

Build Quality, as in the casing for Mi410 is bad comparing to X6 eventho same spec ?

If thier price is the same... between X5 and Desire, which one is better for normal usage? Why? Thanks.

I wont be flashing any roms anytime soon since the last time i did that i couldnt claim warranty on my previous phone which is why im planning to get a replacement.

I think im gonna get the sensation since its cheaper and the screen quality is quite decent.

X5 . it have more internal memory . good for apps . i assumed u mean the old desire , not the desire s

can i ask..
sgs2 n htc evo 3D...
from ur opinion..which better n u feel berbaloi kalo bli..
usage..me maybe use many apps..

Nexus S vs Desire HD, which is better? 2nd hand both around same price. Usage: web browsing, streaming audio, watching video, reading ebooks, GPS, Viber, must root (flashing ROM, maybe not), taking pics & videos... you know, the usual stuff.

Kinda scared of Samsung becos of the problematic phones (GPS problems in S/SL/S Plus, SOD in Ace, etc). I'm curious, why is Nexus S not popular (at least in LYN)?

I would have to second salimbest83 and recommend the IS as well. Between the 2 models:

S Plus
+ Super AMOLED screen
+ accessories (same dimension as S)
- GPS problems
- plasticky compared to IS
- not much community support

IS
+ superb all rounder
+ good build quality
+ 8mp camera

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...0&idPhone2=3468 both got pros and cons

Nexus S is also made by Samsung. Perhaps, take Desire HD?
my guess Nexus S not that popular is maybe due to design?

Any idea how much is a new HTC Legend?

should be no out liao .

Added on September 17, 2011, 3:24 pmno gps issue on my nexus , lock fast .
nexus lack of storage expand , it is not popular in lyn because it come out late , and ppl already got their SGS , no point getting this while they can simply flash gingerbread firmware on it .

DHD is great too , with 4.3 big display .

sense vs vanilla gingerbread , you pick . i dont fancy sense , prefer minimalist , this is quite subjective . some ppl like sense , some dont .

bear in mind poor battery life on dhd but u can always get high perfomance battery. however battery life on nexus is great thanks to it 1500mah battery.
Dont forget ICS is coming to town ,i believe nexus will get it update ( the main goal i get this phone too , fast os update)
that all i can say .

should i get htc desire s or wait or samsung galaxy r?

was thinking about incredible s too, coz desire s's design doesn't look as appealing, lol!

1. Brand. (Samsung/Anything)

-anything that you suggest the best for me.I am an Android newbie and thinking of using an Android..now I'm using Sony Ericson J105i only..



2. Budget. (below 1K)

-I have tight budget right now, thinking of S2......

3. Specs. (dunno)
-Dun have any idea



4. What you need in the phone (Good camera/good sound quality/durable)
-camera 3.2 mpx enough for me..I have DSLR..
-good video and sound quality
-facebook,twitter..
-not really on gaming stuff...

thinking to purchase one by the end of this year..my friend suggest to me that wait for iPhone 5...good enough?

just wondering what are the differences between S, S Plus and SL?
i noticed the S Plus's processor is different than S and SL. which 1 operates faster? thanks.

I'm planning to buy my first android phone. Please kindly recommend android phone with below guide....

1. Brand: Any Brands
2. Budget. 1300 - 1500
3. Specs. v2.3
4. What you need in the phone: fast n stable


TQ in advance...

I highly doubt you can get an iPhone 5 under 1k even if you get it under contract.Anyway,i suggest you have a look at the CSL MI410 ,it's only RM799 yet the specs are the same as the Samsung Galaxy SL.Stock CSL firmware is quite buggy but once you flash it to other firmwares it'll be really fast and smooth.

S=Hummingbird SOC,SGX540 GPU,WM8994 DAC so it has the best sound quality and the highest GPU power among single core phones.Has great developer support.

SL=Qualcomm MSM8255 SOC,Adreno 205 GPU,SCLCD display,so-so developer support.Nothing outstanding about this phone

S Plus=Same as SL but the CPU is overclocked to 1.4GHz but still,nothing outstanding about the phone.

I recommend the Nexus S,it's a Nexus device which means stock android that's fast and fluid plus fast updates from Google.You don't have to install a custom ROM or anything,it's already blazing fast out of the box.

Added on September 18, 2011, 1:52 pmOne more thing,the build quality of the MI410 is awesome,i'd say it's even better than the Incredible S [Used both for quite a while].

so S is much better among those family?
some say S+ processor much slower. just want to know your opinion.

In day to day use the difference in clock speed of the S and S Plus shouldn't be really noticeable but overall the S is the best among those three.That said i am not sure whether the GPS on the S is still problematic or not on the current firmware.

Still,if i were you i'd get the Nexus S.
