Hello there guys, this is my 1st time posting here, sorry to just barge in like this, but as for now, I would be very glad if anyone here can give tips and what to look for if I were to find a new handphone. My LG Shine is old and battered already :/

1. Brand.
Anything will do, but if possible not Samsung (just a preference)

2. Budget.
< MYR 1,500

3. Specs.
Customizable (in terms of interface and yadda yadda yadda)
Nice camera
Free GPS
Awesome WiFi connection
No lagging
etc

4. Type/Size. (Candybar, Clamshell etc...)
Smaller would be better, and if possible I am also going for looks. I always prefer an angular looks rather than a circular ones. Much edgy IMO laugh.gif

what the point you create the thread and ask here ??

Haha but lumia 800 is considered old as well. LolXD Thank you smile.gif

said like this
s3 just release, so s2 = old model

*don't say lumia 800 and 900, both of the release less than half year
while s2 is last year June release in Malaysia, while s3 release in 31st May = around 1 year

1. Brand: Can't decide over Sony or Samsung
2. Budget: Depends on telco
3. Specs: Android ICS, solid hardware, fast processor, long battery life, cool interface
4. Type/Size. (Candybar, Clamshell etc...) Touchscreen

I've used BlackBerry and iPhone but I've never owned an Android smartphone before. The ICS looks attractive and cool and that's why I'm considering getting my first Android.

I don't even own an Android tablet so this would be perfect to add to my collection.

I've considered Samsung Galaxy Note, Sony Xperia Acro S and also Samsung Galaxy SIII

I've heard some rumours that the SIII is rather flimsy but then again my 2-year-old iPhone 4 (which I dropped on roads from my car accidentally without a screen protector or case) is pretty sturdy but I do get the occasional scratch at the edge.

So far, the Note is very promising but the Sony Xperia Acro S looks even more promising.

I'm also tempted to wait for the next iPhone but it also depends whether Sony and Samsung can live up to my high expectations.

I've compared specs and pricing between the ones released already but still cannot decide. I won't get a tablet because I don't have a need for it.

Cheers.

well acro s haven't in market, so out of your choice
suggest you go shop play them 1st, either note or s3 also okay
depends you want NFC, quad core and other feature or not, if yes then s3, else note
do note that s3 also can like note got its pen, but need buy separately, call c-pen

my budget is rm1500,
Currently looking at the S2, bold 4 9900 ap, or lumia 800. Not much of a mobile gamer, I want something that has a strong battery life and able to read pdfs and words quite well. I don't mind small fonts, just something legible. Good internet browsing should also be a factor. Thanks for the recommendations!

can try look for galaxy note / xperia P

QUOTE(azzaim92 @ Jun 22 2012, 12:18 PM)
nexus compared with s2, which is better?

i m so in love with lumia phones and decided to get one for myself. luckily the announcement for windows 8 came right before i buy it. Now I really don't know which phone to get sad.gif

any suggestions will be appreciated.

Brand : any
budget : below 1k
Prefer : ori
Comments : i dun really use the phone much other than for basic communications such as making calls, texting, occasionally check email. Most importantly, I want a phone that will be smooth, i.e. no lagging, auto shutdown problems, overheating , etc...

btw, i m looking for a touchscreen smartphone. Am considering samsung galaxy series.

I'm using iPhone 3G & looking to change phone

I'm thinking of either Galaxy S III or iPhone 4S or wait for iPhone 5

But since I have purchased apps from app store for my productivity such as GoodReader, DocToGo, Quickoffice etc, I'm thinking of sticking back with iPhone.

But S III sounds promising & in view of the new iPhone 5 that will be released in Sept, what do u guys think?
*
go try s3 1st
if okay go ahead
else wait for iphone 5 and compare
