s2 vs wif xperia s?

Definately xperia S. Price also nice, now around 1.2k ori set.

Dear all,

I am first time smartphone user, need some recommendation to buy the phone:

1. Brand - Samsung (Galaxy W, Y, Ace Plus)
2. Budget - Max 800
3. Specs - Value for money
4. Type/Size - bigger screen better

Thank you!
*
Must be Samsung? Your best choice is Samsung galaxy W, but no ori set and not worth it. I suggest Motorola atrix, 4" screen and 1Gb RAM @ RM7xx ori. But not gonna get official ICS, unofficial 1 got.

I thought AP only  around 1.5k? There's some seller in LYN selling at 15XX already... Since Ori still not available yet
*
Better wait for ori to come 1st and see the price. I expect ori to be around that price too, maybe 1.6k like that.

QUOTE(Genexil @ Nov 13 2012, 09:27 PM)
Brand:  ANY
Budget:  RM800 and below
Specs:  Big screen, about 3.5"-4"
Type:  Touchscreen

I am aiming for Nokia Lumia 710, but are there any better alternatives for the same price?
Thanks  smile.gif
*
Ninetology stealth (best, built by ZTE...only branded as Ninetology), Sony xperia U / sola / go or Motorola atrix. Overall better but not as smooth as the lumia.

For the parents who don't fully utilise phones. Got my mum a 4S but she doesn't use it for internet and stuff but probably wanna Whatsapp in the future so.. yeah.

Thanks! yea, almost forgot SE. Will consider it.  thumbup.gif

That should be the best. Other SE/Sony with xLoud also ok.

QUOTE(AXMONZA @ Nov 19 2012, 02:15 PM)
Yup, only Samsung coz 70% of ppl i know use it so easier for me to ask any question about smartphone (apps, downloading etc.).
But price of S Advance is about Rm200+ less than S2... so izit really value for money?
*
Both are value for $. S2 better spec so more expensive.

QUOTE(Fizanni @ Nov 20 2012, 12:34 PM)
Hey Guys, I'm sorta new to the smartphone world,plus I'm still a teen,so that means you'd expect my budget to be pretty low. But anyhow:

1. Brand
        I think any brand should do, but if possible I'd try not to get a Blackberry or Sony Ericsson

2. Budget
        Money is quite a problem,because I can only stretch up to RM 700-RM 750

3. Specs
        Knowing the budget I have,it's not gonna be the best, but something that wont lag when I open apps like Twitter
        and Whatsapp. I don't really play fast paced games on phones.

4. Type/Size
        Touch screen. The size? Maybe around 3.5 inched screen should be the minimum   
       
I was considering the Lumia 710,but I think before I purchase anything, I should ask you guys first. I'd appreciate any kind of help you guys can give me. Thank you smile.gif
*
Lumia 710 suits u well but it won't get WP8. So Sony xperia U / sola is a better choice. More functions and Android is more matured + more apps available. But WP7 is slightly better for social networking, example u can upload pics to FB directly from your pic gallery and your fb chat messages are linked to your sms inbox....so u dun have to keep opening the FB app to reply. Up to u, I still vote for Sony though. smile.gif

Thanks,Dan! I really wouldn't mind getting a Sony, but my family members who used to own them had some problems. Overheated too quickly,couldn't start for donno why,etc...but that was like 5 years ago tongue.gif I wonder if you guys encounter with such problems with the newer smartphone models? Thank you smile.gif

Those probs can happen to any brand, Sony is not to say the most either.

S advance.

hi thanks sifuss!
lumia 800 is better than xperia p?
and wat u meant top up to get lumia 800?
*
Xperia P is better in a way, since Android got more functions and more matured. But its batt life is not so good and more expensive. For batt u can solve using powerbank or portable charger.

Huawei ascend P1 / Sony xperia P / Samsung galaxy S advance.

QUOTE(blue16 @ Nov 21 2012, 12:35 PM)
research since yesterday
which one got better battery life?
610.710,800?
and is it the right time to buy one? since 920,820 are coming !
*
920 and 820 also no use since they will be expensive. So for those 3, it's an ok time to buy since it can't drop much further. 800 already dropped a lot recently, 710 okay and 610 a bit. So I only suggest 710/800.

Hi, I'm buying a smartphone, and having bought a phone since 2005 :S I'm very interested in the note 2 or s3. budget is not a priority i will claim from work biggrin.gif. can anyone give me some opinions on these two? also should i buy it at maxis or lowyat? what i'm looking for in phone:

1. text call sms whatsapp
2. fast, not laggy
3. gps
4. suitable for lots of apps.

thanks smile.gif in advance
*
If buy from maxis u must calculate the plan and all that lar. Note 2 is better. S3 maxis plan is still based on the old retail price if I'm not mistaken, so it's not that worth it unless u really want the plan. Now u buy from outside ori set already RM16xx. If note 2 ok la, since it's still new so outside also around 2k....only slightly cheaper than maxis retail...so the plan is worth it if u need it.

Hi, i've lost my sony experia arc s. i love my phone very much as the camera quality is superb, the only turn off for it s the low memory (8gb).

so, should i but another xperia arc s (2nd hand) or there are other good camera phone which met my budget.

thanks for your opinion.

Must only be Sony?

For new, SE xperia pro / ray....AP set.
For used, SE xperia arc S / X10 / neo.

All got similar cam.

how about application? got market to download like android/apple?

how about user interference?

Lumia 800:
-Windows marketplace, not as many apps as Android / iOS.
-Smooth and fast user interface.
-Got some restrictions like Apple.

N8:
-Ovi store, not as many apps as Android / iOS.
-So-so user interface, Android should be better.
-Quite flexible like Android.
