All Android phone manufacturer also sangkut-sangkut. Better go with Google phone if you like to be on the bleeding edge. Other phone only buy, then forget about warranty, go CFW.  wink.gif

4. What you need in the phone (good camera,can play all games,smooth browsing,good sound,large screen)

Rm1200 can get Arc S

or

samsung galaxy w ( others overbudget ) Rm1000 and below


both can play 90%+ games and application on market .

Arc S have better cam , larger screen , more pixel + screen clearity , HDMI output + ICS update

galaxy w is cheaper and have front cam .

Thanks again for your reply.
1) Hmm... will ask her to check out Xperia Neo V, and look out for Galaxy Ace Plus....No experience with Huawei before, might not recommend her... sweat.gif 
2) Ace Duo seems meet the requirement  rclxms.gif but not sure when it arrive in Malaysia.
3) Ya, yet to see any high end dual sim android phone. Need other sifu to help recommend.  notworthy.gif

Doesnt recomend ace plus . Still using old low pixel screen and adreno 200 gpu which same with nexus one .

Either Neo V or top up abit galaxy W is alot better .

Please recommend and compare these phones for a beginner...
- Xperia Arc S
- Galaxy Note
- Galaxy Nexus
- Galaxy S II
Thanks.

ARC S
advantages : HDMI output with cable in package , nice cam with fast capture , panorama photo , nice gapless 4.2inch reality display which show accurate colour , cheaper alot than the others 3 like RM 700

disadvantages : single core , no front cam , lower contrast / viewing angle

galaxy note
advantage : big screen , with stylus that interact with applications , super amoled screen which give nice contrast

disadvantage : oversaturated colour ( mean the screen will appear to be more colourful than you should see )
perhaps too big , expensive

galaxy nexus
advantages : ICS rdy , highest pixel density among all which give sharpest image

disadvantages : 5mp cam ( although quality is good but cant compare with other 8mp ) , oversaturated colour , no physical button

galayx sII
advantages : thin (7mm) , and probably porpular ( easy to find soloution for ur problem )

disadvantage : lower pixel count although the price almost the same with the other two galaxy , bad audio output , oversaturated screen ( someone like it tho ) , plastic feel , expensive although already long time from launch

Ray vs W?

to be my 2nd phone.. currently using BB9780+n82 but my n82 wanna die already after 3yrs...

main function:
1. camera
2. backup data storage
3. mp3/movie
4. light games
5. gps

tq

if camera does matter then go for Ray . Ray's camera is alot better than galaxy w and confirmed ICS update while galaxy w will probably stay at 2.3 . Both of them can do the rest of the stuff . Or you can get xperia pro or neo ( not v ) which beat galaxy W in all ways except cpu .

Hi, I don't know which phone should i buy. Please suggest to me the best and ' berbaloi' phone one

1. Brand. HTC/Samsung/LG/Motorola. But not SE. But if SE is good for u all, can suggest also

2. Budget - Below RM 1.2K

3. Specs. 1Ghz processor / 512mb Ram (minimum)/dual core or single core also can /Camera's 5mp minimum/ above 3.7 inch screen size ( prefer nice display resolution and display colours)

4. What you need in the phone - considerable amount of usage period ( battery wise), gaming a lil bit, but light games only. Average camera quality, can record 720p video. shutter key (optional). will use mainly on everyday task, browsing and other.

And upgrade to ICS (official/unofficial)

and please state the price also .

Thanks  smile.gif

galaxy w Rm900+ ori
arc s Rm1200- ap
neo V Rm800- ap
optimus 2x ( although is dual core but doesnt match the dual core standard )


best display at below Rm1200 goes to ARC / S

Hi guys, my colleague is looking for a phone,
Budget MYR500-1000

He was eying on Galaxy W or Galaxy Ace Plus,
should I advice him go for Atrix, which I think have better value for money?
*
nope . Atrix is bout Rm1200++ already out of his budget .

best phone among that value is
spice mi-400
galaxy w - large internal memory
neo V - cheapest
xperia play - best loudspeaker
xperia arc - best camera
huawei honor
defy plus

and never go for galaxy Ace +
crappy phone with outdated spec
adreno 200 and 480 x 360 resolution

SE arc s is abit outta her budget (sorry, didnt put correct , <rm1k)
Is Honor better then Sam W? or vice versa?

Arc Rm999 ap set

galaxy w and honor almost the same only honor will surely get ICS

Face unlock, open notifications from lockscreen, widgets in app drawer, switch apps by holding Home key, drag n drop folders, majorly refined settings menus, much better launcher, hardware acceleration

The ICS is not just fancy stuff , its the major improvement like from 1.6-2.3

And if the update stop now , the update will stop forever . The honor and xperias will probably receive 2 or 3 more updates .

Hmmm guys you think I should downgrade my s2 to arc s? I feel like the s2 is a little too much for me cause I don't root and play roms and all. I just use twitter and facebook and play apps. That's about it smile.gif Good idea?But sadly it doesn't have a front facing camera for skype. Any other ideas for a downgrade? smile.gif
*
You downgrade is for experience other brand UI ?

How bout xperia pro ? with secondary cam and 8mp Exmor R cam , qwerty keyboard, HDMI output free live view at this moment .

Other than that huawei honor , xperia play , optimus 3d , evo 3d will offer the experience you cant have on s2

Its worth trying smile.gif

If can find nexus S , its not harm to try vanila android also .

1. Brand --> HTC / Samsung / Others
2. Budget --> 1k to 1.2k
3. Specs --> at least a 4.3" screen, decent resolution
4. What you need in the phone --> mainly for web-browsing, hopefully a camera with anti-shake capability

Don't have the budget for an expensive phone, so I'm looking to do a straight-up trade with my DSLR camera (hence the 1k to 1.2k budget).  Mainly to be used for web surfing, Viber calls, and hopefully a better camera than my BB.
*
the only decent cam at that budget is xperia arc S

1k + all brand have average cam even they are 8mp .

See what package they include .
some shop give mw600 + live view and other accesories worth Rm600 then you can resale the mw600 and live view .

Then the price of phone is like Rm1100 only .

If they not include mw600 then its still a nice deal if you wan the live view .

Depend on you .
