hey guys, i really need ur help..

i've been looking to buy a phone for ard a month now. this would be my first smartphone. my budget is ard rm1250.<kais pagi makan pagi while sem break>

at first i was close to purchasing xperia arc s Ap set. but then my friends told me tht SE phones are not as good as samsung. they said that the phone will start to lag or hang after 6 months and the build quality isn't as good as samsung. like the cover will start to come out after a while.
so i then directed my sights on galaxy S+ ori. can get ard 1.2k i think. but the problem is that the camera has no flash. xperia arc s- 8mp flash vs s+ 5mp no flash.. that spec really bugs me..

so basictly my queation, is SE buld quality really as bad as some say or should i just go for it. or are there other phones that im overlooking. my requirements for the phone would be good build quality, good camera with flash, large screen, and doesnt have any lag issues...
plzz help me...

SE build quality is bad but for the lag/hang issue, I dun think that's really true unsure.gif . Yes arc S got the crack issue (not sure newer batch still got or not) on the plastic part on top of the screen, but it can be fixed through warranty so I suggest u better buy ori instead. Cuz the crack isnt obvious (I've seen it on my friend's arc) and if u wanna send it for AP warranty they might say dun have crack as an excuse to not fix.

Samsung's build quality also not that good, HTC is the 1 good...totally solid thumbup.gif

I suggest huawei honor, around 1k and suits your needs

HTC desire S or incredible S

Desire S - better take ori as I heard that it got some motherboard issues.

Incredible S - need to top up a bit for ori, AP is in your budget...can go for it if u willing to take risk

Got some slowness in both after update to sense 3.0

i tried looking ard for HTC sensation but cant find, only got sensation xl and xe. both are over budget.
however when going through mudah.com i found an advertising for ori SIS HTC EVO 3D. priced at RM1379.
Thats like 200 bucks cheaper than other ori phones out there.

http://www.mudah.my/HTC+X515m+Evo+3D+SET+B...IS-13451363.htm

does the advertisement sound credible to you??
