Because of this vid!  biggrin.gif --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a18uhKTbkM

Initially I was torn between these two phones. From a review I read, pictures taken with Xiaomi 2 are more vibrant (which I like) than Newman but after seeing the comparison, I think I would prefer Newman, mainly due to its bigger screen and cheaper price. It's cheaper than Xiaomi I think?

I've seen the specs for both phones but I don't really know how to interpret these info so I rely mainly on video reviews to see how well they work. I don't own a camera so I need a really good camera phone and I don't care for trends so long as I can take good pictures with it, can go online fast fast with my fibre internet (is this even relevant info?  blush.gif ) and is around RM1200 then I'll be very very happy. I'm pretty much a retard when it comes to technology so if you have any more recommendations do let me know. I'll then search for the reviews after seeing the recommendations here. I rely mainly on forumers here to help me decide what electronic products to get. That's how I ended up with my Dell 15 purchase (still very happy with it!).

Newman N2 camera is better at picking up details than the Xiaomi camera, and the brightness is easily adjusted by changing the exposure. And yes, Newman N2 is the best choice.

All phone got their pros and cons, but for the majority-

Samsung- Glossy plastic back covers that attract fingerprints and do not feel of very good quality sometimes.

LG- Some people say customer service sucks, and some other technical bugs.

Apple- cool.gif What? can't hear you!

Sony- No quad cores have arrived yet. Other than that, Sony comes off pretty clean. Also, they suck at release dates in Malaysia.

HTC- Mid range sucks, and their flagships can overheat easily and have very poor battery.

Nokia- Windows phone does not have as many games and apps as Android or iOS, but it does help the performance become super smooth.
