QUOTE(SomeoneElse @ May 29 2012, 02:50 PM) I won't mod or anything. How about htc Mozart ? It looks OK for that price. What if compare performance between : htc desire , htc nexus one , htc Mozart . For performance, Mozart will win. But some units got screen unlock prob, check this out http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2212718 . Some say is software issue, got some sort of ways to solve it through software tweaks or something. Some changed the touch panel and it was ok but after awhile it came back. Got 1 person changed the whole motherboard and it's okay for few months edi till now. The unlock prob will happen sometimes so if u really wanna buy, u would have to keep unlocking non-stop for many many many times to test. The prob seemed to have occured after the Mango update. I suggest a used Nokia Lumia 710.

QUOTE(SomeoneElse @ May 29 2012, 06:18 PM) I'll take either Desire or Mozart depending on garage sales Added on May 29, 2012, 7:11 pmHmm... saw HTC Diamond 2 Rm3xx only... worth to try ? Ermm...no. It's running on the old winmo with inferior chipset, CPU and GPU. It's better to get a used LG optimus one at that price.

QUOTE(jake9110 @ May 30 2012, 11:36 AM) heyz, can anyone recommend which phone should i get? htc sensation xl, sgs2, sony xperia s or motorola razr? a few things i look for in a phone: - battery life - UI/ web performance (laggy or not) - money for value (which is worth their money) additional info: - use phone mainly for entertainment purpose (music, web browsing) - prefer easy integration of social network Best is S2 non-G AP set, ori set only got G version which is not that good. If must be ori, I suggest Sony xperia P. No point getting xperia S for your usage. Or better still, Nokia lumia 800. Better integration of social network, but WP7 got some limitations la. One of the main ones are no mass storage and can't transfer files through bluetooth This post has been edited by danielcmugen: May 30 2012, 01:06 PM

QUOTE(jake9110 @ May 30 2012, 03:04 PM) don't really like AP set since if phone got problem then a bit difficult to replace any parts. if possible wanna use android. kinda sick of using nokia phone already. looked through xperia P but it's kinda new so not much review bout it. u used the phone before? hmmm but if possible budget max 1500-1600. worth paying 2k+ for either one of the phones? Can ask/check in xperia P thread --> http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2243108For high end phones, not worth it unless u want to use it for long term as currently quad core is not fully optimized yet. This is Android though, dual core still lags a bit so quad core = less lag. I'm not sure about u but I'm ok with some lags anyway, even I'm satisfied with the performance of my low spec-ed phone. I can tolerate with lags, also I prefer to buy cheaper phones so can change phone more often  . I'm not sure about u though... This post has been edited by danielcmugen: May 30 2012, 03:18 PM

QUOTE(jake9110 @ May 30 2012, 03:26 PM) thanks for the link bout xperia P. useful info there. anyways usually when i get phone, i wanna use it for at least a year and half to two years before switching. so far my whole life i've tolerated with lags. that's why now i'm looking for a phone which is lag-free if possible, or less lag. i'm quite tight in budget as i'm still a student. but i wanna get a phone that last me a while. so i'm looking towards max rm1500-1600. otherwise i get s3 earlier edi. just now call samsung ori shop at pyramid and ask bout s2 price. the guy quoted me rm1599. was wondering whether will it drop more after this or not. *btw, still new in this forum. not sure how to quote someone =/ I think 1-2 years xperia P is alright. For S2, that 1 is G version wor. I dun think it will drop any further, quite cheap already. Not sure when they'll stop production since S3 already came out. Maybe got S2+ or something just like last time.

QUOTE(jake9110 @ May 30 2012, 04:16 PM) will do more research before deciding on xperia P. somehow i'm more leaning towards HTC and samsung. been reading bout s2 G version and realised how bad it is. don't think will be getting s2 then. bout s2+, there's no news bout it since s3 came out. but there's a few people speculating that s3 is the "s2+" anyways, any other phone that you have in mind that you could recommend? No no no, S3 is definately not S2+  . I mean if we follow last time when S2 came out, S1 stopped production and S+ took over it. Hmm...no major ones to recommend for Samsung/HTC. Maybe can wait for HTC one S around July maybe? Krait dual-core is fast!

QUOTE(lavender2288 @ May 31 2012, 05:43 PM) Brand: Moto/Samsung budget: RM1600 below screen size: 4.3 prefered others: android, 8mp camera, no hang, no lag, good battery life. Any good recommendation?? TQ. Samsung galaxy S2 non-G AP set. If must be ori, I suggest Motorola RAZR or atrix 2. It will still lag occasionally but hang no one can guarantee.

QUOTE(SomeoneElse @ May 31 2012, 09:45 PM) Ah yes 710, but somehow i like radar's design more , and it looks more solid... But u have to add around RM400 for that. Ok radar is definately very overpriced if u compare with lumia 710, lol. If compare with lumia 800, it is still overpriced but not too bad la. Lumia 710 too cheap  .

QUOTE(xerox8908 @ May 31 2012, 09:52 PM) There is no lumia 700 . Its 710 . Radar have front cam . And it depreciate slower than lumia 710 thats y it is more expensive . They should be on same price range when launch . Lumia 710 when launch is around RM9xx, at that time Radar was at around RM1.2k. Not very same...

QUOTE(ashly @ Jun 1 2012, 11:54 AM) 1. Brand = Samsung 2. Budget = below 1k 3. Specs = mainly for music and phone game 4. Type/Size = With big screen Any recommendation? Thanks Wat kind of phone games? HD type? Galaxy W may not be able to store many unless u mod it. Your only choices are AP/used galaxy S plus or used S advance. If other brand also can, I suggest Sony xperia sola. If can top up, go for Samsung galaxy nexus AP set or galaxy S advance ori.
