Hi all,
I currently have a Dell Streak 5 as my "main brain" (or mini tablet,.
I've been frustrated by Dell's lack of support and no fully functional GB ROMs.
Now that the Infuse has an official GB ROM, I'm sorely tempted to switch.
So I put this to you, Infuse enthusiasts, are you happy with you device?
Specifically speed and reliability, 3G reception, and camera quality?
Many thanks in advance!

The Infuse certainly has a lot of goodness going for it. The audio quality is purely outstanding...in the leagues with the Cowons and other high-end audio players. The display is gorgeous and the look and feel of the Infuse is elegant and quite handsome. The battery life is actually not bad at all, for an Android.
However, the Infuse is definitely one of the buggiest Android phones available. TouchWiz, Samsung's UI overlay for Android, is among the worst of them. When I first set my Infuse up, I got a few system crashes and lag-O-rama. I had to switch to an alternative launcher to get by with my Infuse. But, for some reason, now that mine has been in use for a week, TouchWiz has smoothed out considerably.
I've heard good thing's about the Dell Streak but have never used one. But I do know, even with all of it's bugginess, I do love my Infuse. I find that I prefer listening to music with my Infuse rather than any of my many DAPs. That may be a testament to the Yamaha audio chip I believe the Infuse uses...same as the new SGS2.
I'd suggest giving an Infuse a try before buying.
Oh, and by the way, GB isn't yet available for the AT&T Infuse. Many of us Infuse users are waiting patiently for AT&T to release the update.
I love my Infuse. Out of the box it's probably a crap device, but my typical "time to live" for any stock ROM on any phone I've owned in the past 4-5 years has been a day or less.
The display is simply gorgeous, with a non-stock ROM it's incredibly responsive, the sound quality is great.
The camera's better than any phone I've ever used before - it can actually successfully scan barcodes and QR codes. (I shoot with a Pentax DSLR - so I won't touch phone cameras with a 10 foot pole for anything but barcode scanning...)

Trust me, the camera, though having excellent features and adjustments, is crap, especially for lower light conditions...like under a canopy in bright daylight. It seems to have terrible low-light performance even with the daylight setting checked.
It's Amazing
I'm still using the stock rom, as every customization I've wanted except one can be done without even rooting the phone. I pulled my phone out of the box, turned it on, and immediately downloaded Go Launcher EX, set the home screen to 5x5 icons and disabled icon labels... yea it's definitely the phone and look I want. It comes with much less bloat crap than the other AT&T phones, it allowed 3rd party install apps out of the box, and it has the fastest HSPA+ speeds of their "4G" phones according to the specs provided. Many made fun, as I purchased a 2011 phone with a single core processor... The funny thing is stock the 1.2GHz processor usually runs faster than a stock Atrix with its dual-core 1GHz phone (which my wife has). The phone is $98 at the nearby stores... I absolutely cannot see a reason why anyone wouldn't chose this phone unless you're waiting for the SGSII or you want something small like that hp thing.
It's just a jumbo Captivate.

If you think this phone is buggy, go try the G2x. Its a turd with an HDMI port. Out of the 5 android phones I've owned the Infuse is by far the best.

Okay, thanks for the feedback all!
I'm a little surprised that AT&T doesn't have GingerBread yet, as Rogers (the Canadian equivalent network) launched the phone with GB here some time ago, unless I'm very much mistaken.
I wouldn't be using the stock launcher as I'm very happy with SPB 3D, which I already use on my Streak and Iconia.
You guys also seem to have a healthy development section here too.
I have played with a demo in stores a couple times and I do like the device a lot.
Does AT&T lock the bootloader or NAND on the phone?

If you use the camera for pictures or video often, it's a no brainer. The Infuse camera is superior over the Dell Streak. I moved from the dell streak and I don't miss the extra .5 inch screen.

After reading this thread, I was intrigued to see how well the camera fared in a mixed light situation. I recorded some footage and played it through my 1080P HDTV. I nearly shat myself when I saw it directly linked via HDMI. The Infuse truly is an impressive little beast of a device.
Infuse has amazing screen, camera and design. The stock rom is pretty bad actually, its laggy and the browser loves crashing a lot. However, with infusion gingerbread rom and overclock to 1.6 this phone is super fast and flies through everything and the browser is super fast, so now it can handle 1080p youtube videos. With infused rom and 1.6ghz overclock i can say its as fast as galaxy s2 which I've played with.
Okay, guys, regarding the camera performance of the Infuse...I did a test of 5 different smartphones. They were all set to auto or neutral...no enhancements at all. I did, however, set the Infuse to daylight mode with the checkmarked. Otherwise it would be way too dark. All were taken from the exact same position. Zoom was not used...just how the cameras are by default once booted up.
I took 3 pictures of the same scene each and chose the best, most focused, one.
I had to crop the Infuse picture because the forum wouldn't upload it. It kept saying the file was too big. But I didn't crop it much. The main thing is the picture is unaltered in its image, only size.
The phones are:
Samsung Focus
HTC HD2 with Android
Samsung Infuse 4G
HTC Inspire 4G
Apple iPhone 4
--------Focus---------------HD2------------ Inspire ----------- iPhone 4 -----------Infuse
Marty, the picture that you chose to take isn't a very good sample. Any time you choose a very dark area with a very bright area right beside/behind it, your quality is going to suffer as the lenses struggle to find a focus point.

This isn't about the specific picture. It's about how the Infuse low-light picture quality compares to other phones. There is nothing different in the location of the Infuse picture from the other phones. They all were taken in the same location and the same time.
This shows the low light performance of the Infuse is exactly as I said it was.
The Samsung Focus is the obvious winner there, but I did notice that the other pictures were aimed slightly more to the left bright area which could affect the camera's contrast adjustment. Still the Infuse held up well otherwise.

The angle makes no difference. The angle is pretty much exactly the same. What is different, making the angle look different from each other, is the default zoom level. If they all had the exact same default zoom, they would look exactly the same for angle.
I agree, the Focus has the best low-light performance in this run of pics. But it doesn't have the best overall picture quality performance. That belongs to the iPhone. I can do another test proving this if prompted...I did one in the past between the Inspire, HD2, Focus and iPhone. Didn't have the Infuse back then. But the iPhone came out the best looking picture of them all. It was crisper, clearer and more detailed as well as having the best coloration.

If you take a picture to support a claim and then then say it's not about the picture, how are we to take the picture serious?
I get that you're not happy with the phone and that's cool. Have you tried another rom yet?

You're misunderstanding my meaning. It is about the pictures. It just isn't about only the pictures. The pictures speak for themselves. Take them how you want. But the Infuse does have the second worse low-light performance of them all. And I am not unhappy with my Infuse. I am unhappy with its picture performance.

The Streak was my first Android phone. Gf is currently using it as she enjoys the larger screen for reading books. I switched from the Streak to a Captivate because the Streak just got to be too bulky for me after a while. The Captivate seemed too small though so I switched to the Infuse and couldn't be happier. For me, the screen size is perfect. Not too big, not too small.
I'm running Infused 2.1.0 with Infusion 1.1 kernel overclocked to 1.6, and also applied the battery and performance tweaks from DynamicRam. My phone is snappy, has a beautiful display, no lag, and just has a great feel to it. Battery life is pretty decent. On an average day I only need to plug it up before going to bed. If I'm heavily using it, I may need to plug it up once in the early evening to get a little bit more juice. I also like that there's stable GB roms available. I tried some of the GB roms on the Streak and they just weren't doing it for me. Ended up going back to Streakdroid 1.9.0.
If I had to choose between the Streak and the Infuse, I'd go with the Infuse. I am obsessed with this phone. Loved the Streak, but in my opinion the Infuse blows it out of the water.
Hope that helps you a little!

I beg to differ. The angle makes a big difference. In this case, I daresay the biggest difference. The balance of dark area to light area will drastically alter the contrast balance in the photo. The camera will try to set the contrast balance to match the majority of the photo. If more of the photo of dark in the first picture than the others, the results will be difference.

I've seen mixed reviews about the camera image quality on this phone. Just wanting your opinions. Is the camera better than other phones and as great as HTC claims?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk 2
Haven't used it myself but I've seen enough reviews praise the camera to believe that those who didn't like it simply don't know how to take good pictures.
Have you seen the picture that HTC posted though? They look pretty bad lol. It has the same camera as HTC one x and many sites gave okay reviews about one x's camera
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk 2
Personally, I've used the camera quite a few times in the two days that I have the phone, and I'm very happy with the image quality. The old camera in the Desire I used before doesn't come anywhere near this, and especially under low light conditions, even my Sony point-and-shoot produces poorer images than the One S. The burst shooting modus is a nice addition, too - very useful for nailing images of moving stuff. The camera also starts up very quickly.
The pictures I have seen on review sites look really good, I don't understand why people aren't giving the camera rave reviews. I know when I get my hands on that camera, I would truly appreciate it.
Maybe reviewers are spoiled by DSLRs and advance camera optics but for my self coming from a 2008 phone with 3MP, 8MP camera with its own chip would be a highly celebrated addition.
Yeah, the images from the Engadget review especially look fantastic (IMO).
http://www.engadget.com/photos/htc-one-s-sample-shots/
It looks amazing and will be with my extra tweaks and camera modifications.
Okay that convinced me. Getting it the day it comes out just a little bit afraid of scratching the lenses. There is the protection for the lenses on the one series. I hate cases, the phones feel so much better without them

May I possibly ask why?
The One S is a far superior phone, in every way imaginable, camera being one of them. The GS2 camera doesn't have burst mode, or videopic or any of those features. Not only on the software side, but the low light performance is also much better than the GS2.
S2 makes a bit sharper photos in daylight, everything else on one s's side S2 is great phone, one s is superior just in speed over S2.
The one S is better in pretty much every single area by a good amount (including day light/bright conditions), with the sense V4+ update, camera quality improved even further too, colours are more natural and photos look even clearer now. The GS 2 1080P video is better for smoothness and light metering though.
Also the camera UI and the way the one S/sense camera works is far better, got a ton of cool features too i.e. slow motion recording.
Okay. Let's get this right: your wife's phone went swimming. So do you REALLY want to buy the same "ancient" phone for her or a nice new one. That is the question
Given the nature of women, she will hump your brains out for getting something new and nice .
Oh and Btw, sense rocks compared to whatever s2 has

In my opinion, the One S is definitely better for all aspects of the camera. My light metering also works as advertised and my video recording is very smooth, even in low-light conditions.
As I said, my friend had a GS2, my camera shots were much better in all aspects. GS2 is a much older phone anyway
i have no idea
Though this is an old thread but I wanted to add that One S/X/XL is using the same CMOS with S2/Note2, yes the exactly same cmos from Samsung. Actually, their colour reproduction and details level is almost same.
However, One S added 28mm, f/2.0 aperture and imagechip which transform the camera superior over S2/Note2(f/2.6) and even beat Galaxy S3 out easily. You got much faster focus speed, wide lens and much better quality at low light.
Outdoor photo is pretty much identical to S2 i9100, it only because gsmarena used old ver of OS/camera(ICS 4.0.3) in review and the quality was really really bad at that time I can recall my memory.
It would be nice to hear some opinions on this following thoughts I've had, ever since I upgraded my phone last year from an iPhone 3G (2.5mp camera I think) to an Xperia Arc S, which at the time was the highest quality / size MP camera on a phone at 8MP, which is still a decent size for a phone camera today, as mid-ranged phones usually start at around 5-8MP and the super smart phones these days are running upward of 10MP, I think 13MP is the highest, at least on Android, that Nokia Symbian phone was like... 42MP? Or at least the fidelity / quality resembled that due to its massive lens housing, god knows what was in there, but if I remember rightly it was only 5MP images... Someone correct me.
Anyway, with my Arc S at 8MP, the images are fairly decent, I mean they're never going to be used for print, so it doesn't really need to be higher. However, as an art graduate, I spend time when I can taking photographs, and I have a 14MP Sony NEX 5, which as standard is already a better quality sensor than the tiny ones that make it into a phone.
My first point is it's still only 1MP higher than these smartphones, which makes me think; say I upgrade my phone in 1 year when 16MP is the highest, now we've gone over, for me I'm reluctant to go higher than my camera because I'd probably be swayed to using the phone more for photography, though the phones would probably have to be double the MP of a decent camera to really compare.
Secondly, Lenses, well the one on my Arc S is fairly standard, though probably more complex than some others as I think it has 7 layers of various shaped pieces of glass. But when it comes down to it, any photographer will tell you it's almost 100% the lens that really makes a photograph what it is, the phones are getting better quality, but the lenses probably aren't, the phones are constantly trying to get thinner which doesn't help matters, but phones have actually gotten fatter sue to bigger screens needing bigger battery, so I'm unsure on this part of the topic.
The lenses I use on my NEX are Canon FD mounts, a format from the early to mid 70's all the way up to about 1994, they are manual lenses because of their age and incompatibility with modern auto-focus, but the quality is superb, and I'm not just saying it, one of the lenses is a 1.4 50mm prime, and can do some great shots, though the camera isn't full frame so the lens works out at 75mm, but I also have a 28mm 2.2 (I think?) prime, which works out around 42mm and is really good.
Both lenses are dated between 1972 and 1982, and no current phone could replicate the fidelity, bokeh and colour, which is one of the reasons why proper cameras will always have the advantage. (The NEX doesn't have a mirror inside so can replicate the original setup of older cameras easily, meaning a huge number of adaptors allows tons of different lenses to become available)
However with the Nokia pureview phone (still don't remember its name... 850?...) It had a body capable of housing some very interesting tech, that hasn't really been used since, at least to my knowledge. Seeing some pictures online really showed you what this phone was capable of, I think the resolution of the images were in the ten thousands X whatever, and remained really sharp, for a phone at least. Maybe it's lack of success is due to it been on a non-leading OS at the time, I can imagine people would want a camera with maybe an Android phone? (Which apparently, Nokia are working on) so maybe it will see it's true colours shine on a larger base OS. If this tech is worth the larger body size of a phone, people are going to want it...
And lastly, Convenience. One of the main points of having a camera is to be able to capture moments WHENEVER, and having a decent camera on a phone has been a growing trend over the past few years, with the growth of social networks, YouTube and Instagram. And you're more likely to have a phone with you than a camera for a situation that's spontaneous.
So what are peoples thoughts? A few months back Jessops one of the leading camera sales company in the UK went into administration, with only a few stores been saved;
Will we see a heightening trend amongst phones been used instead of standalone cameras?
Will they (DSLR's etc) be phased out completely?
Are you an avid photographer with your phone, or do you use a standalone camera?
Am I wrong?
I'd like to hear some opinions, hopefuly some educated ones on the subject will give a sense on the spectrum of issues.
Another point to consider, Smart-Cameras, the new trend of cameras running Android, though I don't think any have interchangeable lenses.
Thanks for reading, also... You may need to change some 'if's to 'of's because my phone has a habit of changing my words.

I use my phone for everyday rubbish shots (whatsapp and such) and storing information (bustimes, lists, important stuff i take a snapshot of.) .
It will NEVER replace my DSLR.
It simply lacks the functionalities of one. So long as I can't set aperture and change lenses, it's not a real camera. I need my telezoom and macro lenses.
You can't seriously expect a phone, even that 42mp one to be as high - quality as a dslr. Too many pixels crammed into way too small a sensor. As it has always been with phones.
Not to mention, phones lack the power of a dslr. Ever tried taking nightshots with a phone? They're bad. Very bad. Or high speed shots. Nuhuh, they cant. Or far-zoom?
Lets face it, cameras on phones are not meant for professionals. They're meant for people on facebook, twitter and instagram.

Man how can you compare a DSLR with a smartphone camera??, a DSLR is a camera with an awesome quality and the smartphone camera is only a phone with a decent camera and not for pro- photographers.. i would always choose a DLSR over a smartphone camera. And by the way i agree with ShadowLea that you can't cram 42mp in a small lens!!! it is outrageous!
Well, it's to do with trends, if you agree or not is a different matter, but lots of pro photographers and teachers will tell you if you ask, about how important this new revolution is, the quality you can get is pretty good, even compared to digital cameras less than 10 years ago.
If it can take photographs then it's a valid form, there are pro photographers then spend lots of their time using phones for photography, 5MP and decent light is enough, some of these phones are better quality than the point and shoot cameras of recent past.
Instagram, though trendy is a very valid post processing tool, just because the majority of people use it recreationaly it doesn't diminish its power, and usage.
People use Polaroid cameras all the time, and they're quite limited, and the quality can vary greatly. You can't change the lens, and you can't really adjust any settings.
Polaroid is probably most comparable to the quality of the mid range smartphones.
As for the Nokia 41MP camera phone, if you actually look at the images you can get a good sense of the quality. The short article can be found here:
http://www.extremetech.com/electron...review-camera-finally-coming-to-windows-phone
You can also easily find examples by doing an image search on Nokia Pureview.
The convenience of a very good quality camera phone can allow for great photos, which is why it's really taking off as a trend.
Denying it is the same arguments as saying Digital is better than Film, though there are still counter arguments, benefits and people still use film cameras and Polaroid.
There's a statistic recently that goes something like; there have been more photographs taken in 2012 than all previous years since photography's invention combined.
I'm not sure if that's word for word correct, but I think it was on a Vsauce YouTube video not long back.

I think you need to understand that Professional stands for "getting paid for your work" or "being an accomplished/awarded photographer" and not "I can hold a camera!".
Yes, there have been more photo's taken in the last year than since the invention of the photograph. I do hope you are also aware that this includes every halfbrained moron on Instagram and Facebook posting their friday-night drunk shots.
No selfrespecting real photographer uses a phone's camera for his or her work. The only ones that do are either A, doing an experiment, or B, people on the internet fooling themselves into thinking they're photographers.
PHONE CAMERAS DO NOT HAVE APERATURE SETTINGS. And that's where it all ends. There isn't a single pro or semi-pro who uses a fixed aperature camera.
42MP doesn't make a bloody difference if the sensor is meant for 2MP. The photo's may look fine on the internet, but newsflash: Your monitor is 72DPI, not 300. And a 6000x6000 pixel image is always going to look amazing when downsized to 1920x1080 or lower. (which is what every website does.)
As for trends, they're for the common cattle, not semi/professionals. People with knowledge and experience pay attention to specs, not to hypes.

Not on all shots, but some less defined or flat colour indoor shots it really struggles to get any sort of focus. Completely ludicrously blurry. Anyone found a way round this. Even on the focused shots it comes out pretty blurry. Really poor programming from Google's devs. Like really amateur. Surprising on a company like Google flagship phone.
Otherwise the camera is often impressive. Far more than for some reason it gets credit for.

Yes, very slow to focus and very slow to take a shot. Most indoor photos look like an "artistic" blur. Disappointing. Hopefully the software update will fix it:
