First and foremost, we (the mods for this section) are tired of cleaning threads that are asking for suggestions for which is a better phone model and etc. Thus, I'm opening this thread here to compile all your enquiries and valuable suggestions. Any model vs. model thread that comes after today (13.02.09) will either be closed or nuked with no reason given.

For those who are asking for suggestions, please make sure you ask them nicely, clearly and politely. For suggestions givers, please reply in sensible ways and state reason(s) for the model(s) that you suggested. Else, we will treat it as spam. For e.g.:
1) I suggest you to choose this <model> because it has WiFi, 3G and etc... (Accepted)
2) Take this <model>, it is good! (Spam)

Also, suggestions givers please take note that:
It is encouraged and advised to quote the suggestions seekers' post whenever you to try to give suggestions. This is to avoid confusion and for better reference to the other users in the future.

Please be alert too that this thread is only for model vs. model suggestion and not for phones recommendation. For that, we have a catered thread for it. Head over to this thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/872196

Thanks for reading and please do not abuse this thread with unnecessary posts a.k.a. spam.


*I'll update this post from time to time if it is necessary.

* Please dont ask about the price of the phone here.. you can search it at >> Garage Sales

firstly.. you want physical qwerty keyboard or dont want flex.gif ??

SE Xperia Mini Pro
-> has physical QWERTY keyboard
-> LED Backlit LCD [just better than TFT in term of display, doesnt much difference to be honest]
-> smaller screen than Live[3.0 vs 3.2]
-> the Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine may helps in display[you may read @ http://wp.me/p1smWw-4A8 ]
-> has bigger internal memory [400MB VS 320MB] , but both have microsd card slot[which upgradable up to 32GB]
-> others function,ram,processor,gpu is similar to live

SE Live with Walkman
-> has NO physical QWERTY keyboard
-> TFT display [just normal LCD display]
-> well.. it is walkman, and you may expect it has better speaker [with Sony xLoud enhancement]
-> support USB on the Go [i love this function... can attach your pendrive and browse your data in pendrive through handphone.. you also can play things inside the pendrive, not only pendrive.. even the HDD also can] laugh.gif
-> the Walkman series is unique [at least for me]


just choose which one you want..

actually there are many differences that we can get from both phones..
1. the model name ,

2. Desire S may have smaller internal memory than HTC Rhyme [1.1GB VS 4GB]

3. Desire S is cheaper [RM 1070 for ORI] , while Rhyme is more expensive [ RM 1400 for ORI]

4. choice of color

5. bluetooth version [2.1 in Desire S , while Rhyme = v3.0]


anyway.. performance wise, both are neck to neck ,

Thank you biggrin.gif

Galaxy S is old already , but..

Galaxy S has better looking screen , it use Super AMOLED screen which is beautiful , tongue.gif ,
Galaxy S has bigger internal memory which is 8GB compared to 1.7GB in Galaxy W and 320MB in Neo ,
but all them has MicroSD card slot

for Android , internal memory is important for you to install apps [although there are ways to enable you to install the apps in memory card..

Xperia Neo has better camera with good camera features..

Galaxy W has higher clocked processor[1.4GHz] while the rest have 1GHz processor..

So far Galaxy S is still recommended although it is old already.. Galaxy W has great spec and it is newer model , while the Xperia Neo is just a good phone...with better camera features..

Galaxy S maybe a bit expensive

^ I saw second hand Galaxy S cheaper than Neo and W, that's why I asked about it. Is it worth getting it instead of W/Neo? I heard that there's no latest android update for Galaxy S. Is that true? And how to enable installation of app into memory card, do we need to hack the phone? And does Wonder work better than Neo?

Sorry for all the questions tongue.gif Not sure what phone to get sad.gif

to enable the installation app into memory card[maybe need to root/hack ].. I'm not so sure because I'm not an Android user.. , but I also heard that.. no need to root/hack/or need special apps for that]

you can just lurk around in --> http://forum.lowyat.net/Android for more info

The percentage for Galaxy S to get ICS update is low.. smile.gif but you can always hope for Custom ROMS for that..


Wonder and Neo , i still suggest Wonder over Neo biggrin.gif ...

Can I know why you suggest W over Neo? Just wondering because I've a few people telling me to get Neo instead so I want to know your opinion hmm.gif. and would custom ROM damage the warranty for Galaxy S? blink.gif

I'm mainly looking for good quality camera and ease of use, cannot lag like hell. Would love good screen type too but not super demanding on that. Battery life also must be good so which one would be better? Thank you for answering my questions yeah sweat.gif

because Galaxy W has better processor, and the stock OS is quite good.. ,

but if you still want to go for Neo , it is not bad too.. since u required good camera.. Neo has good camera[as I've stated before]...


custom ROM will void the warranty .. [but if you want to send it to warranty.. you can change your Custom ROM back to official ROM..]
