1. Brand. htc/se (non ap)
2. Budget. RM1k - RM1.3k
3. Specs. dual core, ICS, 4.3in screen, 1g ram.
4. What you need in the phone - good support as in future os upgrade. proven to not always lag.

currently in my mind is htc evo 3D cos wanna play around with 3d effect till get bored. can recommend me better phone that fit my requirement? no 3d also can.
*
Motorola atrix 2. It's smoother than both evo 3D and sensation as far as I know.

Hi..

I've been using i phone 4 for 2 years already.I'm planning to try out android phone and planning to get a good model.Which one is better htc or samsung and which model is new in market ? I'm looking for something that can perform better then i phone 4 and want to try out android for first time. Regarding the cost, I have no idea because this is the first time going for android.Will tell if the price suits me after recommendation.Please suggest the model and price.Tq.
*
2nd hand google nexus S, if must be new then Samsung galaxy nexus / S2 AP set. Cuz ori S2 is G version which has very little custom ROMS and problematic while ori galaxy nexus is overpriced. So if u insist on ori, wait for HTC one S.

QUOTE(TimPTGirl @ Apr 14 2012, 08:57 PM)
No specific budget, but the best less than 1k, unless u guys can recommend a phone that really worth its price. i only need it for normal use smile.gif
*
So the front camera still need or not 1? If dun need edi then Nokia lumia 710 or wait for Sony xperia U.

Brand : HTC / Samsung
Budget : Below 2k
Specs : Anything
What I need : Need a phone that can play decent games with minimum lag (Temple Run , Angry birds) good battery life ,  and most importantly , can surf internet with minimum lag

Interested in the HTC One series especially the HTC One S but then I read that it only uses MicroSIM wheareas I'm using the normal SIM card
*
Why dun just change the SIM?

Go for Xperia Arc (AP) / Xperia Ray / Xperia Neo.
If you want keyboard, then go for Xperia Pro.  smile.gif

HTC One V is fine though, but overpriced. unsure.gif

From another point of view, Lumia 710 fits your budget as well.
But then hardware wise, it has worse spec compared to other Android phones.
It runs on Windows Phone 7.5, so I think it is not a problem as Windows Phone is pretty well optimized.
The drawback is less choice on applications.

One V overpriced meh? unsure.gif Now wor...

Galaxy W or Xperia Neo or Xperia Ray or HTC Radar? smile.gif

Depends. HTC radar would be the best but got some limitations like can't bluetooth files, no mass storage and so on. Not that many apps also.

So between the 3 droids, can be said they're pretty much tied. Xperia neo is the best but dun have ori set, so warranty problem. Xperia ray got good camera(equal to neo) but small screen. Galaxy W got the fastest proc but not so good camera and no ICS update.

4. What you need in the phone : Nice camera

Currently was locked down to One S, any other choices?
No Xperia S please XD

Xperia P can? rolleyes.gif
If cannot then Motorola RAZR or atrix 2.

I vote for ideos x5. Spec wise the vision is better but since there are so few users here, who knows wat kind of problems it has?

QUOTE(CJ_Kyro @ Apr 18 2012, 09:48 PM)
sorry guys, some questions again.

-HTC Evo 3D
-Motorola Atrix
-LG Optimus 2X
-HTC Sensation

all dual-core phones, or any better recommendation which is roughly the same price?
*
Motorola atrix 2 if u are not a phone modder, if u are then HTC sensation or wait for HTC one S.

Hey all Sifus...

Got questions here...
1) Is HTC One V worth buying?
2) Huawei Honor VS HTC One V which one would be better?

Thanks.
*
1) Yes, for now. But better wait for Sony xperia U.
2) I would say they are equal, spec wise the honor wins but build quality + UI + modding(cuz it got more custom ROMS to choose from) the one V wins.

Death grip - When it was new, yes. Now with all the updates I'm not sure edi.
Overheat - Normal for smartphones to get warm, but no major overheat issue for sensation as far as I know.
Battery drain issue - Yes.

hi guys, i need a smartphone recommendation  for 'uncle' type (my dad), with fat fingers.

Prefer plan with Maxis,  phone dun have to be TOO good, but hopefully battery life will be more ok

cox uncle needs to check his emails constantly. Am wondering if HTC Cha Cha will be a good choice cox got

physical keyboard, but heard that the battery life is poor.
plz advice. thanks ya. blush.gif
*
Why not just directly go for blackberry?
If the physical keyboard is not a must, can go for Nokia lumia 710 or wait for lumia 610. Both lumias are running on WP7, both bigger screen so better viewing pleasure flex.gif and the L.710 is available with Maxis package. The L.610 also should have.

Sorry yea as this is Android section... sweat.gif

- ergonomic design
- decent camera

any recommendation? garage sale or brand new are welcome

Motorola atrix 2. If can wait then wait for HTC one S or Sony xperia P. At least those 2 got unlocked bootloader unlike the Motorola, this matters only if u are a phone modder.

It should be around 1.5k when it comes, but hard to say cuz similar spec-ed Sony xperia P is expected to cost RM13xx.

Yup it's made in China. But Huawei is a decent brand, their modems are reliable. Now they start to make phones, reliability wise so far so good thumbup.gif .

Ok the honor's camera is not good for an 8MP, the xperia arc is still recommended. If 5mp camera is ok for u, can wait for Sony xperia U. Dual core! rclxms.gif
