I am planning to get a smart phone and after searching around for months from Symbian to IOS to Android. Finally, i satisfy with Android but for Android there are variance from Samsung to HTC to Sony to Motorola... Hmm! really a challenge  rclxub.gif Lastly, i decided on Samsung...

To cut the story short i have decided to choose either SII or Note... Significantly that saperated these 2 machines are:-

1. Size Notes = 5.3/ S2 = 4.3
2. Screen Notes = Super Amoled HD (285ppi) / S2 = Super Amoled plus (217ppi)
3. CPU Notes = 1.4 GHZ/ S2 = 1.2 GHZ
4. Battery Notes = 2500 mAh/ S2 = 1650 mAh
5. Connectivity Notes = extra LTE/ S2 = Normal 2G/3G
6. Price Notes 25% to 30% extra.

There are only few things that still holding me back that is Note size that is not to be carrying alone...

forget abt s2. it is already yesterday's product. but u can get it to save some money.

if u are a geek user, who likes the muck arnd with custom ROMs and other geeky activities then get the note absolutely.

consider the H1X instead. it has a wonderful Sense interface, the screen is excellent and the warranty support is trouble-free.

I sold off my HOX after only 2 weeks
HTC Sense is still memory hogger ; with apps loaded the UI just lags
Display is nice but not that great - all those web reviews are often misleading .

what a pity!

kuli remembered that u loaded ore than a thousand apps then it lags.

but under normal usage circumstances, nobody will load so many. nod.gif
sense is truly useful for a phone and social networking.
not even the mighty iOS comes close as far as facebook/twitter integration is concerned.


and the screen which i saw in pavilion was absolutely gorgeous.
galaxy note screen is big. that's it.

Only 150 apps not a thousand apps !!
i have used so many types of android phones plus all the iphone series till 4s , I know what is lag
And I do know how to judge display too - the HOX display is just nice not that gorgeous

Haha, doesn't really matter. Hardly anybody goes more than 20 apps or so. So the observation was unrealistic.
Not to sound disrespect, but maybe u need to get ur eyes check. Glaucoma causes loss in clarity.
In terms of screen quality, iphone 4s pawns h1x pawns galaxy note.

Need some opinions from you guys.. which will be the better btw these 2?

When u choose, dun select the one with most Pro, but the one with the Con u can live with.

S3

Pro
For mainstream geek factor, i.e. custom roms,
Removable battery
external memory ( although it's outdated)
50gb Dropbox
Fancy software (usefulness is yet to be determined)
Better HD recording

Con
FUgly design
Cheap build and material
Old display technology

H1X

Pro
Beautiful design
Premium feel material
Brilliant HTC Sense
Amazing screen using IPS Super LCD2( totally pawns HD SuperAmoled twice over)

Con
Non removable battery
25gb Dropbox ( half of s3)

Removable memory is no longer an issue.
Nowadays ppl talk abt cloud.
If ur device can connect to internet, no need removable storage.

It's not secured and cumbersome.

nexus still out of budget . At least RM1300 for ap set .

galaxy s advance , xperia sola would fit in ur budget .

forget abt samsung, the phones worth getting from them is only the top range. their middle and low range sucks.
