Well guys as I posted in my previous topic that I want to buy a decent android mobile but now its just confusion confusion nconfusion.
I'm confused.
First i thought to buy sony ericsson x10 mini pro as it got qwerty. Then polo adviced me not to buy because they'll stuck on android eclair and low screen resolution as well low hardware.
Then I thought to buy motorola defy from all your guys suggestion. But I always wanted a qwerty phone so for a while my heart turns towards motorola milestone. But then again you guys helped me and showed me correct path as it got low phone internal memory and ram.
Then my mind kept cool for a while so i was searching for a decent phone. Then comes galaxy S i9003 which got everything , dual cameras and a decent hardware butnot much developer support. And I don't know whether it got a gorilla glass which is screen resistance.
So then comes the news ofarrival of sony ericsson mini and mini pro. Mini progot a decent hardware, 5 mp camera with flash, secondary camera , hd video recording and playback but again it's too small when it was compared with xperia x10 it seems too small in size.
I got a budget of 21000 rupees i.e. 480 . What should i buy now?
@ Shriharsh
considering your budget, i would advice you to extend it by 1.5k more and you would get a galaxy s i9000. I have just got the phone for a friend @ 22.5k.
else go for moto defy, damn good phone with good dev support

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to android and would love if someone could help me. Coming from iPhone 4 I wana get android phone cause Rogers is releasing nexus s and xperia arc on 28th I wana get one but not sure which is better. Please help me everyone as I have only week to decide.
Thanks
Buy Arc Or w8 For Samsung Galaxy S2 ( similar to iphone 4 in looks )
might be forever for sgs2
just looking at the specs the Xperia Arc has the advantage in many areas:
8.1MP vs 5MP camera
microSD slot that can accept a 32GB card vs 16GB fixed internal in Nexus
4.2" vs 4.0" screen
FM radio
micro hdmi
MobileSyrup is reporting the Samsung Galaxy S II to be released late Q2/Early Q3. With a dual core 1.2 GHz processor, 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display and 1GB of RAM, I think it'll be worth the wait.
If not, I think the Samsung Nexus S would be a better choice than the Arc.
Sgs2 released in india. Getting in day or two
In Uk 1st May Onwards.
its not Forever
So not arc? I need one rightaway or nexus s.

If you want something right away, then take the Arc. It's a better phone than the Nexus S.

Agreed.
I used a Nexus S for a couple of weeks prior to getting my Arc and there's simply no contest IMO.
Of course there's the obvious points like the superior camera, the flexibility of having a memory card as opposed to only in-built memory, extra features like HDMI-out and the significantly better looks
But there's also things like the fact that the Arc is smoother, so much more polished and the screen is actually really good - for day-to-day usage, I'd go so far as to say that it's a match for the sAMOLED panel the Nexus S uses.
Hi i would recommend you to go for sony ericsson xperia arc because i have research lot for this phone and i got awesome reviews so go for arc. Thanks.

Except, you know, for the screen you're looking at all day (SAMOLED >>> any LCD), and the constant Google software updates. And the faster Hummingbird in the Nexus.
Finally i'm moving Towards Android From Old Crappy Nokia-s60. My budget is around 17k INR (India).
I Want an android For ..(here's my wishlist)
1.Great Audio/Music Quality Via Earphones (I have Two In-Earphones Nokia wh-701 and Creative ep-630.they are good enough for me)

3.play & record 720p.
4.Good Camera With Flash (Although i dont use camera often)
5.Good Processor (1ghz or more)
6.Good GPU
7.Ram 512mb
8.Big Scratch proof Screen (3.7-4.0 inches)
9.LED Notification (NOT necessary).
10. (Very IMP.) Good Xda/Forum Support...For Rooting/OCing/Flashing.
There Are Two Good phones in my mind Xperia Neo V And Galaxy W (Wonder). Neo v is available for 17.5-18 k. Neo is not is available in india. And Galaxy w is coming soon (i dont know the date/month but expected price is same 17-18k).
So Should I Wait For Galaxy W Or Buy Neo V?
Neo V
Pros.
Scratch-resistant LED-backlit LCD With Bravia Engine.
Good Looking.
Led Notification Light.
Camera Key.
Comes With A screen protector(in the box).
HDMI Port+ Cable.
Good Camera. (i think)
Cons.
Not much xda/forum support.
Locked bootloader.
Less Internal Memory 1gb (320mb available)
All Hardware Buttons (i dont like it)
Galaxy Wonder
Pros.
Same Processor But Clocked at 1.4 ghz.
Internal memory 4gb (1.7 gb available).
Touch Wiz 4 UI (i like it)
BT 3.0.
Two Capacitive Keys.
Separate Charger And USB cable.
Samsung is Better in terms of SW updates.
(Very IMP.) It Will have a Separate Section in xda. (i'm sure).
Samsung Services like social hub etc.
Cons.
No Scratch proof/ gorilla glass screen.
No Camera key.
No LED Notification Light.
Not Good Looking (its not a problem for me).
Other Specs Are Just Same Like Screen size,RAM,Battery,Resolution (almost same), megapixels-flash,front camera, Gingerbread,720p,
Please Help Me!! Should I Wait For Galaxy W Or Buy Neo V?
Please Comment.....Any Help Would Be Appreciated!!!
I think you should get the Neo V as it will definitely be getting ICS, and maybe even another update after that as Sony have been improving. The Galaxy Wonder probably will get ICS but Samsung take forever with their updates.
go for neo V sony confirmed that it will be getting ANDROID 4.0...
based on your (wish) list, neo v won imo.
PIck neo v, its cooler. there are also great support for that device here in xda. very customizable. camera is good with 5mp. Sony keeps their OS updated.
hi all , i am tight on my budget but i am looking for a decent android that is priced just right(buying one late this year ) ...i am looking for a sony phone , htc ..not samsung since their phone are a little ugly in my book ...i am eyeing on arc S ..are there better alternatives ? i dont really know much about htc ...
my priorities are
1.price - have to be decently priced ..but not high enders like s2 ..xperia s etc ..i cant afford
1.5 display- a good display is real important in my book
2. speed - decent speed should be great! single core or dual core ain't important
as long as it is snappy
3.camera - a decent camera is great ..not needing a front facing one since i am only 17
4.storage - minimal is enough since there is link2sd
i am eyeing on 2010 / early 2011 high enders like arc / arc s / htc incredible ...so what phone is in my reach ? i am buying them late this year thou ...

omg thats an amazing little phone you have there!.
I mean, darn.. i have a defy and i cannot film in 720 :S
mine cost 250 dlls with a 18 month contract :S
-.-!
omg...zte fury ?? for 20$?? u kidding man! the specs are even better than my ace! and my ace cost USD 250!
I recommend lg 2x. Really cheap (i bought one 300 euros 5 months ago) , its dual core with tegra 2, 8mp camera and the screen is nice. The only problems are
1)the stock firmware is bad but you can flash cm7
2)ram is only 512mb
i cant decide between 2x or arc s ...
2x have dual core , more ram and more internal
arc has better design , better screen ,better camera and bigger screen so in a sense arc is better as a media phone?
If you know anyone in China or an exporter then get a Xiaomi Mi One. Kills both The LG 2X and Xperia Arc on processing power, battery and ram with 1.5Ghz Dual core and 1GB Ram. You also get the amazing MIUI. Camera and screen on Sony probably better but the UI, extra power and large battery on the Xiaomi make up for it. $315 retail in China but in limited supply.
The ARC Vs LG 2X is tough. The Arc has better screen and camera and probably better battery too and will get android 4.0 officially very soon. The LG though is obviously dual core, but stuck on 2.3, so custom Roms will be the way to go.
yea..hm ...
heyyy bro
zomg!!!
get the htc EVO 3D bro! only 150$ off ebay!
specs: msm 8660 (dual core 1200mhz, adreno220 gpu, 1gb ram!, 720p, 3D video filming and watching, 3d screen, hdmi mini)
yeah, the EVO3D is verry good...
i like htc, it has a good case...good cpu...
and it is verry cheap...better than lg
greetz EMIL
evo 3d, the rom development is unreal, they have ics already too

What has being 17 and having a front facing camera got to do with anything?
Samsung Infuse on straight talk..
hello dear friends
i am going to buy a phone, Samsung Galaxy SII i9100 or Xperia S
but it's hard to decide which is better, as they are in the same range of price
the most important thing for me is the ROM and Software support, and speed of performance
and then go to resolution and camera and etc.
so would anyone help me to find which is better in those aspects?
Thanks
Hello,
I Would go for sgs2 I have the phone now 6months and I love it ! Differents Roms you can find, the battery is good, etc it's a good phone !
Best regards
I just got the Xperia S about a week ago and I love it. Much prefer it over the S2 and the price is amazing, £270 sim free and costing £10 a month on a 12 month sim free contract.
I got the Xperia S ,the speed of performance is OK,but sometimes it will be slow. The ICS is coming soon, may it will be better, and in my mind,S is more beautiful than i9100...
If you like to play games, i9100 may be better
if you interesting about using camera choose Xperia S because have high resolution
look the comparison link
geekaphone.com/compare/Sony-Xperia-S-vs-Samsung-Galaxy-S-II
for me i suggest thinking about HTC One X or Galaxy S III
I have a I9100 and it is a good handy, when you need more power you can buy a 2000 mhA Akku. With this Akku i can work 2-3 Days.
A friend have the Sony S and he say it is a good handy, too.
isn't there any opinion that which one has better hardware and speed?
Xperia S with s3 snapdragon is good but the s2 with mali's gpu is way better
as for me, even though da spec indeed important, exterior stat also need to be taken into consideration, do u like ur fone can be easily scratch at da point u need to throw it or hav a major damaged for such a minor mistake as if slip from ur hand right in front of u and fell? and even more frustrated, only juz 6 inch falldown can break ur front glass, camera not functioning or damaged speakers? take full measurement when trying to buy new fone. neither i9100 or xperia s are superior device. choose wisely
Hey guys,
Recently, I've been wondering whether or not I should sell my Nexus 7 to get the Sony Xperia Tablet S, which just got released at the end of August. I've tried it at the store, it made of aluminium, bigger screen, 8MP back camera with Exmor R, Playstation certified, IR Blaster, better design, 6000 MAH battery and SX-Master Audio, ICS 4.0 but not lag at all. The big plus it has over the Nexus 7 is that it has full size SD card slot support, HDMI out, water-splash proof, etc..
I've been using my Nexus 7 for about 1 month now, im quite satisfied with it. But I would like to consider a bigger screen to have better experience at web browsing, movies, gaming, etc.
Is there anyone that own a sony tablet s before ? What do you guys think ? Should I go for it or not ?
