@ sup3rfly

I have PMed u instead cos it is not really a discussion thread on both devices here jus purely recommendation

so pls do check yr PM

@booster, i see what you're doing there. lolz

@superfly, its okay to ask a bit for opinion as u need recommendation, but we wont "discuss" it k?

If HTC and SE are your choices, u also have Tytn 2 to consider. But its heavy and i dun think u'll like it.

X1 and Touch Pro are actually the same specs wise, just that X1's X panel is laggy, u can actually learn to remove it and flash a faster rom.

Now that said, them having same specs, there are pros and cons. X1's cam is slightly better. X1 has wide reso, and u should read this about wide reso
http://heretical-rantings.blogspot.com/200...r-standard.html. I posted before somewhere here in LYN

And that would be the advantage of Touch Pro as well, standard VGA screen. Oh, and X1 has cracking problems, casing always crack, but i forget its silver one or black one. u have to google that.

so comes down to your preference

@rarestormz, how about HTC Touch Cruise? or if u want qwerty HTC Tytn 2. both brand new can fit your budget.

reso is usually for viewing pictures, it'd be clearer

@kkyy, forget heavy gaming if u want brand new and less than 1.5k. U can probably do light to medium gaming, try going for HTC p3600i if u can find one.

hi Baronic,

thanks for the fast feedback... actually so light to medium gaming is ok.. except for HTC P3600i, any other idea? what about asus?

@kkyy, asus i'd recommend Asus P750 and Asus P535, both solid models

@rarestormz, then i'd recommend Diamond and Touch Pro, my prices are RM 2400 diamond and RM 2.9k Touch Pro. U can look outside also, but be careful of non ori items. please refer to "baronic's guide to purchasing PDA"

@Siuyi, try looking for a second hand Dopod D810 or HTC p3600i, solid device, good for beginners especially

Baronic
thanks.if u are me, among dopod d180 and htc p3600i, which 1 will u prefer more?

ah..baru know that its the same thing, name lain only.haha.

they're different. HTC P3600i has a slightly faster proc, but for all practical purposes, no difference really. As a pro user, i would user D810 cuz got more ROMS to use

hope somebody can gv me some recommendation

BUDGET RANGE:around 2.5k

Second hand: no


QWERTY keyboard: preferable yes (but acceptable even dont hv one)

Keypad: don mind

GPS: Yes

Bluetooth: Yes

WIfi: Yes

Frequent Overseas traveller to Japan and US? or other countries: no

Camera Resolution minimum:3.2

Expandable Memory: Yes

3G : Yes

HSDPA or higher: don mind

Front Camera: if possible, yes

Gaming Type: Light gaming

Screen Resolution: I dont give a hoot

Touch Diamond or Asus p565 below 2.4k. Each now around 2.2k only

since light gaming + QWERTY u can try to save some cash, go for M800 Glofish or HTC Tytn 2, or even samsung i780. If a bit over your budget aim for HTC Touch PRO.

I strongly suggest Asus P320. It has GPS

Got no 3G la. Im sure a HTC P3600 or 3600i can be found below 1.3k as the asus P552w is around 1.45k

oh yea 3G. P3600 and P3600i brand new can find 1.3k and below? if yes then its a good choice

Id also want to recommend a S60 v5 phone, but the mod will surely del it

yeah, stick to the P3600i, although bulkier than the P320, its much better
