Why no one suggested HTC phone? HTC butterfly is a very nice phone that packed with OK battery life. Or else, you can consider HTC ONE which will be released in month. And, HTC always has better build quality than Samsung.

I'm wondering as well, haha.

Hi guys, I am currently deciding between iPhone 5 and SGN2. But I still have few doubts on which to get. Currently using iPhone 4S.

1) Which is more future-proof? I'm planning to use it for at least 1.5 years.
2) Does the 2GB ram of SGN2 make up for the device smoothness? Such as home screen swiping. I've tested at Samsung store and I find it a little bit sluggish. It is due to the tasks running in the background and it takes up most of the resource?
*
1) 1.5 years both also still got updates. But beyond that then iPhone 5.

2) Yes it's probably sluggish due to the running tasks in the background (demo set usually got a lot running). The 2GB RAM helps but since u tried it and felt a little sluggish it's up to u to judge. Since u have a 4s, u can try using with many background running tasks and compare the performance with the note 2.

Thanks. Do you know if it can sync emails with Outlook?

What do you think of WP8?
*
WP8 is pretty decent, lumia 620 will feel faster than S3 mini.

I'm confused. Online prices for Lumia 620 ori warranty by avaxx is between 680-699. I went to a shop today and the price is 799. So, which one is correct?
*
Both also correct. RM799 is the official price when u buy in Nokia shop. When u buy from dealers outside, u can get discount. Both still ori.

my iphone4 really slow and lag since previous version of upgrade, feel like want to change a new smart phone.. should i go for note2 or iphone5? any recommendation?
*
Both can do most tasks well. If u just want smoothness, simplicity and high resale value go for iOS. If u want big screen, slightly better functionality and wanna customize your phone here and there, go for Android.

Anyway, I suggest LG nexus 4 (Android). Better value for money.

Need advice on:

1. Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070
2. HTC Desire HD
3. HTC Incredible S
4. S.E Xperia Arc
5. Sony Xperia L

Which one is better and value for money?
More concern on camera and speaker. Budget below RM900.
Thanks.

Definately xperia L.

QUOTE(hirow @ Jun 19 2013, 12:41 PM)
wp8 is gooding? never use this os before.
*
Depends on your usage. For me my usage is just internet browsing, camera, call/sms and some games. Good enough for me. Loving the metro UI (subjective). But got some limitations and not as polished as Android/iOS.

Looking for : Smartphone with basic spec

1. Brand : Any

3. Specs : Basic spec
*
-Wait for Xiaomi Hongmi, expected to be RM389 if buy online.
-If can't wait, go for Asus Zenfone 4 but battery life is bad.
-If can't wait, go for Nokia X. Spec lower than choice 2 but ok batt life.

QUOTE(Diamondhead @ May 29 2014, 08:05 PM)
Nexus 5 or Xiaomi Mi3 or HTC Desire 816 or Xperia T2 Ultra ? For my brother
Moto G or Huawei Honor 3C? For myself

I need a phone with good specs, fastest Android update and easy to sell later......
*
For yourself, Moto G. Definately got the fastest update since it's directly under google. No problem selling as it's a popular model. For specs, it has lesser RAM compared to 3C so multitasking probably isnt so good. But normal usage moto G should be smoother.

Xiaomi redmi note or Huawei honor 3c for better selfie.
Asus Zenfone 5 new 16gb batch for more space for games.

Im using honor 3c 8gb, to be honest not quite enough for big games.

heard asus zenfone cant play some type of games? not compatible? the gpu between the phones, which one is better? heard redmi note is best bang for buck?  icon_question.gif
*
Ya, zenfone's intel chip cant support certain games but most of them should be ok. Redmi note should be better than zen5 overall except storage. 8gb internal can only put in around 3 HD games and then u have to struggle with limited space for other apps, unless u root the phone or something which im not sure. It's up to u.
