Any suggestion for phone with minimal 5 mp camera below rm 1000?

QUOTE(jelereonmyg @ Sep 2 2012, 01:22 PM)
Hi guys, I'm looking for a phone that centers on quick internet browsing.

Brand: Anything but iPhones

OS: Any

Budget: RM1000 or less. More if worth it.

Specs:
> 3G, I don't know about 4G except it will be available in M'sia soon so is it advisable to get 3G now? Or 3.5G? My knowledge of these things are lacking
> Multi-touch screen or Qwerty is fine
> Screen size 3.5-4.0 inch, not too big, not too small
> Camera/video quality not a concern, I never use the camera function

Additional info:
Preferably emails, pdf files, general text-based browsing can be downloaded and accessed quickly.

Just to give you an idea, I had my eyes on Huawei's Ascend G300, it is almost evenly matched with Samsung's Galaxy S3 in terms of specs but costs only about 25% the price I think.

But apparently it's not being sold in Malaysia yet (please correct me if  I am wrong).

Is there anything similar?
*
Both also Motorola atrix. Dual core, 1gb RAM! Around RM800 or below can get liao.

hi all,
i want to buy a budget smartphone for my sister.
price rm600-700 or below
decent/good performance in every aspect.
any suggestion and please tell me why.
thinking of samsung Ace 2 or Ace plus . please comment about this two too.
tq! smile.gif
*
Performance = smoothness? Go for Nokia lumia 710.

Ace 2 havent arrive here yet, ace plus not worth it. Can also consider SE live with walkman or Huawei ideos X5.

If AP also can, consider SE xperia pro. 8mp camera + slide out qwerty keyboard.

For best performance spec (but not as smooth as lumia) can go for Motorola atrix @ RM7XX. Dual core, 1gb RAM.

I am sorry mod, the pin thread aint work well you know. The response is slow and less input.

Yes, you are right! Lumia 800 pink is something she will like. How about accessories, do they have flashy casing?
*
Can check this out, got many types of casing. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2337914&hl=
Do note that lumia 800 can't do bluetooth file transfer, only contacts can. Other than that, it's very suitable for your mum. Simple and smooth, with a nice stock metro UI...no need to customize already very nice. drool.gif In my opinion la.

lumia 800 if u want simplicity
but have more limitations
in the other hand the xperia sola and p is a better phone there is more things to do in case she got bored
its kind of hard to get bored to android hehe sweat.gif  wub.gif
*
I got bored of Android, lol. I customize the screen here and there until bored edi, I dare not root though. Then later on I just stick to the same style of screen, nothing much to do if u never root. sweat.gif Games yes if that model can support HD games, last time my ace cannot support. sweat.gif

Yup I love the flexibility of Android too. WP7 can't attach file in LYN. For me overall I still prefer Android, but for tomokomiki's mum it seems WP7 is good for her.

Those dual core SE may have JB.

But I read Lumia 800 can't do tethering/bluetooth transfer isit true? Besides reviews also mentioned the camera isn't as good, but not sure is it not as good as N9 or what, that's why I'm asking sifus here biggrin.gif
*
Bluetooth only can transfer contacts, others files cannot.
Tethering I'm not sure, but it can if I'm not mistaken. There's an internet sharing option in settings there. hmm.gif

Camera is good. But it will be very very good if u know how to adjust the settings, it should work well enough if u know how to operate a basic camera. Most reviews use auto settings.

What d different with the warranty?

Ori is warrantied by proper trustable company, AP is warrantied by outside company. Better get ori for S3, since got a lot of bad reviews on AP companies.

Can see this thread for more info. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/857577

Ori is warrantied by authorized distributor that do proper and more reliable servicing. AP set warrantied by various companies also, but their quality of service is not certain.

For example your phone is Nokia, u prefer to send it to proper Nokia care or Ah Beng sdn bhd? Possible for the Ah Beng sdn bhd to go bankrupt so there goes your warranty.
