1. Brand  : Samsung / Sony / Others?
2. Budget  : RM500-RM750?
3. Specs  : must have front camera for video call, 3.5mm audio output, card slot, flash, wifi, gps, ics or jellybean
4. What you need in the phone: can view/edit DOC/XLS/PPT (eg. Polaris, Kingsoft, Documents To Go), can run Bible apps (eg. MySword), maybe even project the screen/PPT/etc. to external LCD projector via HDMI/USB port?

I'm actually thinking of either Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 and Sony Xperia J. Which has better resale value? Any other recommendations?
*
Video call through telco only Samsung can, video call through skype all that all also can. Your best choice is ace 2. Resale value xperia J (ori set) should be better, since ace 2 only got AP.

owh..no..not too big screen..3.5 is just nice...i find out ace 2 no sme set...

now in mind ace plus n galaxy pocket...is it pocket is ok compare to ace plus?
*
At that price, best is Sony xperia U / sola. But it looks like u dun like Sony, so just go with ace plus also can since it will get JB update next yr.

QUOTE(Cranky guy @ Nov 22 2012, 10:52 PM)
Pocket is definitely not recommended in any way. If you want a phone with 3.5 inch screen, here are a few suggestions.

Samsung Galaxy Y-RM 450

Xperia Tipo- RM 475

Xperia Miro- RM499

CSL Star Mi360- RM399

Xperia Sola- RM 655
*
Dun forget about xperia U icon_idea.gif

CSL Mi360 is your only bet if you want 5MP with good battery life and less lag with an ICS update this week. Xperia Miro is almost the same, only the price is of the Miro is over RM500. Xperia Mini is also an option, but it is using Android 2.1. It's quite hard to get apps for Android 2.1 now.

Xperia mini is on Android 4.0 . I think u mistook it with x10 mini.

QUOTE(zero721 @ Nov 29 2012, 12:34 PM)
1. Brand. (Preferred Samsung, but please give some opinion in others brands that within the budget)
3. Spec. At least 4 inch if possible, around 5mp )
4. Usage. (It's for my mom's use... she want large screen. I think don't too lag can edi)

Samsung galaxy S advance.

Thanks for the replies about Desire X vs S Advance! (And also the alternative suggestions!)

Just curious, what's the difference between the two, as in why is the S Advance the superior model? Is it because of any specific specs (camera, storage etc), or because of the different UI, or because of the brand reputation in general?
*
Because of specs.

QUOTE(xproc @ Dec 2 2012, 10:38 AM)

No. Jellybean on high end models no lag.

Samsung galaxy ace plus / mini 2. Both will get Jellybean update.
But Sony xperia U / sola is better.

Otherwise, Samsung galaxy S3 (AP set).
Not sure when will nexus 4 come but better wait just in case it's cheap.

Dear lowyat-ian,

I still undecided which phone to get:

1. Brand:Samsung (Currently looking at Galaxy Ace Plus and Galaxy S Advance)
2. Budget: Max RM800
3. Specs: 5MP
4. What you need in the phone : Less trouble and perhaps can have incoming call recording function(but i can't see any in Samsung, perhaps Lowyat-ian knows better)

Hope can get some recommendation

Thank you!

S advance or Sony xperia sola / go. Ace plus is not really worth it.

1. Brand.
Doesn't really matter, although preferably Samsung or HTC

2. Budget.
1k or less ( Student's budget )

3. Specs. (Ram/Proc/Camera's MP/Screen size)
Preferably something with 4" screen, although 3.7" should be okay.

4. What you need in the phone
Should perform reasonably well, with minimal lag.
If possible, decent speakers.

Thanks for the help biggrin.gif

-Samsung galaxy S advance

Hi all, I'm looking to buy a smartphone to replace my iPhone 4.

So the features should be comparable with at least iPhone 4S/5.

In order of priority:
1) Nice Screen (but not Galaxy Note 2, too big for me)
2) Performance & Stability (stock ROM/Launcher, I am not planning to flash custom ROMs)
3) Camera (should be as good as the iPhone 4 at least, higher megapixel does not mean better btw)

Budget: Maximum RM2,000

Thanks. smile.gif

Samsung galaxy S3 or wait for LG nexus 4.
