Hi , looking for a new phone .

1. any brand should be ok , except samsung , really bad experience with that brand
2.budget less then 1k
3. specs :

-mostly going to use for basic stuff , not really for gaming
-thinking bout front camera .
-average screen , not too small, will be using as ebook reader . also small screen susah to type.
-decent battery life
-camera should be decent , no need very high quality stuff.
-dont really need deep social integration , dont use facebook , twitter that much .
-need radio.
4. normal shape.

I noe , seems like long list , but its my first smartphone, so just want to be thorough, plus , will buying for long term usage ( a few years at least)

thanks in advance

I read alot book on my hp . Until now , i have afew criteria when choosing it .

- big screen
- decent battery
- nice shape
- light weight

IF front cam does matter , can consider Motorola ATRIX 4 inch screen wit front cam dual core about Rm1000
although heavy abit but overall quite decent . NO radio tho .

Recommend xperia Arc next. Although single core , it do basic stuff without lag .
Have radio , battery last 8hour plus with screen on all the time , looks square when look from front .
NO front cam . Not sure if you really want it as you don use skype etc unsure.gif unsure.gif unsure.gif


Next choice is xperia pro / neo both have front cam and pro have qwerty keyboard for easy messaging .

really? I don't know much about mobile phones development. It is because I need to buy a new phone then only i go do research on the internet. I am still keen to get lumia 710 if the price is right.

Actually, I also wanna find out, since windows 8 and windows 7.5 is totally different, what difference will windows 7.8 make?

it that mean xperia s already solved any screen problem? i see someone sell the phone around 1799.. it is possible the price will drop before september? or there will release new smartphone on sony + nokia? ty
i heard xperia s also lagging..

btw.. my friend would like to buy in peninsular.. because in september, she will continue her study in sarawak.. it is possible to claim warranty in sarawak?

There is one at kucing.
At most drop 100-200 well all phone will drop slowly.
Garage sales got below 1700
No lag at least for me.
Try at shop to decide, sometime lag or not is depend on personal tolerance.
The good thing about this phonetip it come with full accessories. You won't need to buy extra accessories other than case.

btw.. thanks for ur reply smile.gif

Car charger , hdmi , nfc tag and expensive earphone whistling.gif whistling.gif and also a backup screen protector ( one already applied )

Lumia 900 just doomed by microsoft after one week launch

well .......... whistling.gif whistling.gif

touch screen never got problem
camera is great with plenty of detail . Won comment vs lumia 900 as there isnt any sample side by side yawn.gif
lagging ? hmm.gif hmm.gif I have sgII and s both in ICS and sgII lag more . The XS ICS never lag no matter scrolling throught homescreen or using browser . Whats exactly you mean with lag ?
For battry hmm.gif hmm.gif now all smartphone can last only a day with constant use . XS not lower than that.... whats the problem ?


p/s : If really have bad though of it better don buy . Getting a phone that you have positive though before buying is important also for stratification .

In a dilemma now, so wanna ask u guys, I have a Motorola RAZR XT910 now (will have ICS update soon), so if I want to trade it in for Samsung Galaxy Nexus, will it be a good idea?

The problem here is that the trade in price for the razr is so freaking low though it is in perfect condition and still have around half a year warranty...so sadding yo  cry.gif

Suggest you open tread at garage sales .
Will higher than you straight trade in to mobile shop .

Maybe can Rm1-1200 something .

Depend on accessories also
And nego things can't teach
Try put 1200 lor if people say expensive then slow slow nego with buyer.

Hmm.. I didn't know I am facing same problem as many here.

Google Nexus vs Galaxy S2. Don't really care about the camera quality as long as it's a decent one or same quality as the iphone4

I am getting one of these to replace my aging iphone4 until the next gen of iphone arrives.

You guys are lucky. It's selling about RM1400 in Sabah.

I have a budget of approx. RM1200. What else do you guys recommend?

No nid think , nexus is the best currently with jelly bean .

hi guys. wanna buy my first smart phone. have never gotten myself into the world of smartphones so hopefully you guys could give me a good suggestion or two.

1. Brand.
doesn't matter, as long as it's one of those latest ones and has a good and large community and widely supported and lots of apps

2. Budget.
more or less rm2000

3. Specs.
i would like it to have a good camera and easy UI and i'm gonna use it a lot for gps, mobile internet browsing, and documents reading

4. Type/Size. (Candybar, Clamshell etc...)
candybar but if other form is nicer and more durable then why not

in my mind is iphone 4s but i'm afraid that it might be replaced soon with newer iphone or other better spec-wise smartphones. and also, is it a wise time to buy a smartphone now?

one x / note / s3

iphone ar hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif if you don mind so small screen then ok also for daily use

next iphone will be launch october something and perhaps reach here at dec or 2013 .

What's a good phone i can get under rm1000? in terms of features.. i suppose good camera perhaps dual core. and not too old as well

1. any
2. prefer under rm1000
3. not too old.. last gen is ok; if possible dual core

if sony sola vs. htc one V which would be better? SE xperia Ray maybe?
thanks
*
For daily use Ray/one v is enough .
sola have bigger screen and dual core but Ray have much more better cam than both of them .
more stylish and cheaper at the same time .
