1. Brand - Any
2. Budget. - below RM800
3. Specs. - at least 5MP, Latest OS is a plus , screen size - below 4.3'
4. What you need in the phone - Whatsapp , Facebook , Light gaming , web surfing

Is it HTC Desire C is good choice ?
*
No. Sony xperia U is the best below RM800. But if u mind about its storage space, can go for SE xperia neo(AP set) / neo V / pro(AP set) / ray or Samsung galaxy W.

QUOTE(blue6228 @ Aug 10 2012, 05:35 PM)
HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S III, Google Galaxy Nexus or Motorola Razr Maxx

1.5k (with digi plan for certain models)

Not really particular with the spec except that must be atleast dual core

Good sound quality, durable, a lot of custom roms upgrade options, if possible no hardware problem (example like iphone 4 signal issue about 2 years ago), good battery life under heavy usage.

Hope you guys can help me out with this

One V / Desire HD.
One V comes with ICS, while Desire HD is stucked at Gingerbread.
I have faced performance issue on Desire HD, anyway.
Not sure about One V (comes with less RAM!)

Top up less than RM100 can get HTC sensation, definately win. biggrin.gif

For my auntie who is currently using Sony Ericsson Hazel J20i.

1. Brand - Any but preferably on Android.
2. Budget - Rm700-800.
3. Specs - smartphone
4. Type/Size.

She wants a smartphone but easy to use for aunties and from someone migrating from a candy bar type of phone.

Touchscreen seems to be quite hard for her. So I wanted to recommend her since it has big keypads but with a smart phone function but 1 shop said it is not easy to use a BB.

Please recommend me.
Thanks
*
I think slide-out qwerty is the only choice, SE xperia pro.
There are a few BB-like Androids, but all of them..the screen also is touch 1 if I'm not mistaken. The screen so small even worse.

QUOTE(mudkipryan94 @ Aug 13 2012, 01:05 PM)

3. Specs: at least 4" screen, dual core will be sufficient
4. What you need in the phone: Good camera, GPS, won't lag when    play game

Previously i was aiming for Xperia S, but after read some review about its yellow spot problem and poor camera focus that draw me back.... My now personal preference is motorola razer xt910... Can anyone recommend me any phone which is better than razer ? Which smartphone has the best screen viewing quality ? in terms of vivid and colour ?
*
RAZR's camera is not good. I suggest Sony xperia P.
The screen that 1, super AMOLED I guess.

QUOTE(skycrew @ Aug 19 2012, 04:35 AM)
guys what phone should I buy ?

Galaxy Nexus or S3 (with carrier package)

currently I'm using HTC EVO 3D
*
U mean g.nexus no package, S3 got package?
Then it depends whether u need the plan or not. If just compare g.nexus vs S3, sure S3 win.

QUOTE(shanixe @ Aug 19 2012, 09:52 PM)
1. Brand : samsung, htc, sony

thanks.. smile.gif

i have budget around 1k+-......

should i buy xperia p RM8xx or xperia s RM1199 or xperia sola or nexus or 2nd hand iphone4 or others brand ?....

my main concern is battery duration and must support WAZE and speaker must be loud !

any suggestion please ?....
*
Those u listed have only so so battery life except for iPhone 4. Can consider SE xperia arc, maybe can only find used set. Or huawei honor. If batt life is more important than spec.

But spec wise, those u listed are good and worth the price.
QUOTE(XazeQuoz @ Aug 21 2012, 11:34 AM)
Brand : Don't Really Care
Price: RM1k~1.5k  can top up...
Considering xperia s and acro s... which one is better?
What I Need: nice camera, fast networking, dual core, good speakers... most used for listening to music and watching video and gaming...
*
Sure acro S better, got the water/dust proof thing.

Atrix is the only choice below RM900, it's worth the price I would say. But camera not really good for 5mp.

QUOTE(dallas316 @ Aug 22 2012, 01:58 PM)
Brand: Samsung/HTC
Budget: Any
Purpose: All Around, No/Less Lags, Less problem, user friendly
Choices: One X or S3

Kinda want to decide in terms of less problem and powerfull gadget

thanks for reply smile.gif
*
More lag --> S3
More prob --> One X

Overall S3 better but more expensive, one X not so good overall but cheaper. S3 much easier to root also, so I suggest s3.

QUOTE(kysl @ Aug 22 2012, 03:29 PM)
Hi sifus pls recommend,

1. Brand. (HTC/Samsung/LG/Motorola/Others)
2. Budget. About rm400
3. Specs. more than 3.2" screen
4. What you need in the phone social network, surfing

Thxs.
*
No phone meet your requirement unless 2nd hand.
If 3.2" screen is ok, u got galaxy Y. But at the same price u can have SE xperia mini, MUCH MUCH MUCH better. But screen 3" only.

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Aug 19 2012, 12:14 AM)
agree... having used Wildfire, DesireZ, S3 and ipad with me... in terms of smoothness ipad still can compete with S3...  i find even i whatsapp a lot in 1 session with photo or video transfer the S3 cannot go back to home smoothly... the whole launcher will restart, after i press the home... while ipad goes back to the home screen a lil slow but still in my comment it is still slightly better than S3... Single core 1GHz (256MB RAM, 16GB internal with less than 1GB empty space left) vs Quad core 1.4GHz (1GB RAM, 16GB internal with more than 10GB left and 16GB Ext SD with less than 3GB left)... almost similar resolution screen some more... who is smoother and faster in the windows transition... haha...
cheers... I still like my DesireZ even though just got my S3... flimsy and plasticky vs robust and solid Alu UniBody...

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Aug 19 2012, 12:41 PM)
thumbup.gif they should put more RAMs instead of Build in Storage... it is just another SD Slot which we could not access anyway... 1st i got confused y my custom ringtone wasn't in the SD later realize, it was the Ext SD which we slot in ourselves... the SD is the so called build in storage, finally copy and paste it into the internal SD solved... there goes my regular ringtone...
really... which you use... is it hard to Root it? i'm still thinking whether to root my gf's Ray or not...
my DZ rooted but it is a pain in the arse to S-Off the unit...
i do not really know why ppl still always believe in benchmarks... well it tell what you get in the spec...
but in the GUI story it is different, u need to try out to see...

i could not believe myself also when i see the S3 lags in front of me eyes... sometimes it's speed really like as slow as Ray or DZ when i press the home button to go back... sometimes my iPad (Gen1) runs smoother than it...

still waiting for a fast fast RAM phone...
*
QUOTE(michael9413 @ Aug 19 2012, 09:33 PM)
Haha... 1st time heard ppl blame it like that... funny... it also serve to recall all the recent used apps... duh... like i duno...
the home button main purpose is when i press it goes back to home... and it lags, sometimes more than 2~3 secs... a top range phone should not be like that... the launcher was not keep in the memory for some reason...
don give stupid excuse... y other brand don have this problem on single core or dual core or quad... the lag is lesser...
is the customization problem... and the multitasking, is useless... skype, browser and some other apps restarts even i swap it to whatsapp or sms for texting a while only...

BTW.... no point to argue too much with you guys... i hope i did not sell off S3 more faster than my iPhone 4S (4 days of usage only)... cheers...
*
QUOTE(michael9413 @ Aug 19 2012, 10:50 PM)
Well saying that is very stupid excuse la...
Not only Samsung home buttons has multi function...
But the script keeps on killing the launcher is a concerns that affects user experience...

Ya we are discussing only... cheers...

QUOTE(Charger67 @ Aug 20 2012, 11:12 AM)
Haha what an coincidence... I use to have a desire Z also until recently it'd destroyed in an accident  cry.gif .  
IMO, its sometime smoother and stable than many phones including some dual core's out there in terms of UI experience.  So  not bad for a sub 1 ghz single core phone with only 512mb ram with sense on top of it huh...
I also have a Sony Xperia mini pro, with similar specs with lower resolution, its actually faster, but more inconsistent. it's lags here and there with no apparent reason and hampens user experience alot...

Btw, it's kinda dissapointing when s3=also lags... its the fast her phone so far, I think....
*
QUOTE(michael9413 @ Aug 20 2012, 12:48 PM)
not sure... it is the fastest... still waiting for Desire S with S4 chipset... i think Sense is the most stable UI at the current moment... well of course AOSP is smooth also... so far i do not think i want to root it because of the bloatware that Stupid Samsung put in, main culprit causing the lag... my phone is running at 630+ memory in the RAM... which ~750 for our use only...
