QUOTE(salimbest83 @ Aug 10 2011, 11:28 AM) erm. mistaken for 9001. lol. as for newer phone is batt hunger. will try do full 100% batt comparison when i got chance. i think that maybe stock samsung rom that need some tweak to reduce batt usage. i out office this week. As for X5/mi410 suggestion. both is great. but mi410 need use Thai set ROM (official ROM) even Official CSL 2.3.4 ROM also laggy (reported in mi410 users) stock rom is laggy Added on August 10, 2011, 11:29 amwonder who is the lucky owner of this http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1985115altimi got it d i guess.

QUOTE(raven143 @ Aug 10 2011, 07:06 PM) with your budget i would suggest nexus s. why?: 1. Its been around for awhile so the price is cheaper (1150), extra can buy other accessories, give to your gf/bf, your mum, me  , LOL 2. nexus has a lot of choices regarding ROM, kernel, apps, and MOST important of all, it is easy to root. and it will get the ice cream sandwhich update too 3. redshift theory - processing power increase double every 2 years.. meaning dual core phones get better and cheaper within 2 years... just my liang mau chien.. haha edit your script ..

QUOTE(nghj @ Aug 16 2011, 09:59 AM) yes there's no flash and its plasticky, but for a bit more $, i suggest the newer model Plus vs 1 year old S or the nexus. not proven, but samsung claim they tweak the new model to have better performance and also battery life. added: http://androidcommunity.com/samsung-galaxy...marks-20110811/if you dont mind about camera lack of zoom , nexus s is great too . with flash , updated os . great battery life for me , bear in mind im running it 1.2ghz daily Added on August 16, 2011, 7:56 pmQUOTE(Dannyl @ Aug 16 2011, 04:32 PM) if you game a lot . galaxy s , desire have more ram i guess This post has been edited by fcuk90: Aug 16 2011, 07:56 PM

QUOTE(nghj @ Aug 17 2011, 07:28 AM) SL is the cheapest but better dont bother. Incredible S and S Plus both have their own pros and cons, what do u want? nice screen? good camera? solid body? easy to use? etc?? just read the few post above yours and the previous page. Added on August 17, 2011, 7:35 amUp to date: Nexus is your best choice. but just a small warning, the sd memory card cannot be removed. nexus got memory card? it is not build in ?

QUOTE(sil3ntlif3 @ Aug 19 2011, 01:24 PM) Thanks alot of the reply!  Wow just finish researching for CSL Mi-410 ... It's an Incredible Phone!!! not sure want to buy or not because it is CSL =,= but for 800 it seems like the spec rival that of any higher end phone. Seems like a lot of ppl complain about service and need to flash rom to fix most problem. Now this is on top of my list along with xperia play. (both have it's pros and cons hard to decide) now juz have to wait phone to sell... xperia play only have 400mb internal memory , still mi410 got its advantange , if you are not rely on the joystick of the xperia play , dont get imo . just my 2cent
