Yeah seem a great deal, for testing purpose !! but did you know him true resolution, because on some website i found 320x240 (which is a little low) and on other 320x480 is there 2 sort of Xperia mini pro ?
thx a lot
The new Xperia Mini Pro SK17i is a good phone. I have it and its running smoothly, havent got any problems with it. Only disappointing is that the screen is small. A bigger screen would definitely help.

Hello,
I am thinking of buying a new Xperia x8.I am a great fan of SE as my previous and present phones are SE.However,I have seen that SE isn't producing quality products these days,rather isn't giving justice to their customers.They have stopped official x8 android updates.I am extremely fond of modding the firmware for changing fonts,battery icon etc. and previous SE assisted that.
I also want good sound quality.
What do you feel,shall I buy Xperia x8 or any other ?If other which ? It shall have approx same cost.
Thanks a lot.
i got a desire of ebay for £140, if thats too much i,d c how much you can get a zte blade for, hell of lot better than a x8, or even if you can afford it, an x10
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
ZTE Blade is Dell XCD35 in India if I am not mistaken.Is it better that SE Xperia x8 ?? And what about support and official updates ? Can it be updated to Android 3.3 in future ? What about modding support et.,coz SE has many users so good support for unofficial hacks etc.
Please suggest.
Xperia mini vs HTC Wildfire,which is better ?? Coz Xperia mini has resistive touch screen. Also comment on sound quality !
Thank you !

i would suggest x8, it's cool..you can do custom ROM in it and get 2.3.5 gingerbread version
i think zte Blade is more cost-effective.you know ,x8 is so small,and hardware is too old
I'm mostly buying Xperia mini !
I'm planning to buy a new phone & have refined to
1. Motorola defy +
2. Sony xperia neo v
3. Htc one v
please please do help me. I would go for rooting also. As i'm not a technical person but i'm a good learner and will catch up fast.
Please skip giving me link as i've been doing this for 7 days. So please i'll need some personal advice.
I've joined this site because i found it amazing.
Please help me.
i have neo v , it looks good , but display isn't so good like galaxy s, its luminosity set to max is darker than galaxy s set to middle. This is the only think i don't like to neo v
The defy is best,just be sure to root it.
Sent from my U8150 using XDA
Motorola Defy+ for sure
You should choose the defy+. The specs are similar and it may not look as good as the others, the defy+ is water resistant (so you can use it when its raining and not be afraid of it breaking down) and if you accidentally drop it on the ground, the screen won't scratch a bit. This is my experience with my own MOTOROLA DEFY. But the price is one of the benefits of it being so good.
OH and also remember to root and put a custom rom on it and it will own up both of the other phones in speed tests
I have a Defy+, or at least had two. Still have one. Both the little devils were rather too fond of crashing and rebooting. To be honest I've neither rooted or loaded a custom rom which may have solved the reboot issue. That asides it's a good little phone. I took an upgrade of an HTC One S. It is bigger and better (possibly ) EXCEPT The Motorola has by far the better mobile network signal reception of the 2 phones. I would have said have a look at the One V but not so sure now? Guess they all have their issues?
if u like outdoor activity buy xperia active n it will be my second phone next season
fyi: search xperia active torture test on youtube
I have got the xperia active. An awesome phone.
But don´t forget the display is small!
HTC One V, 4GB internal memory, Video 720p,
Android OS, v4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and Beats Audio. but if you are concern about the money I would go with Motorola too, better CPU than the sony, but sony got better camera than Motorol , but still I would stick with HTC - Motorola - Sony
Hi
I got some questilom as Iphone user I dont know anything about android. Started to learn something 2 days ago
Going to buy a new phone but cant decide.
I hate big screens and stuffs like that so my decision is down to :
Xperia U
Galaxy S Advance
Ace2 ( cant cause still waiting to hit italy market )
On this forum they spoke very good of Xperia U vs Ace2.
Anyway, the list of question is long :-D
1 ) A friend of mine told me that every phone that isnt from google sucks cause of lack of fast support and upgrades of android that takes months while google its out asap.
Those 2 phones are okay ?
2 ) What u would suggest between xperia U and Galaxy S Advance, and reasons. Its worth 140 euro more cost the Galaxy S Advance ?
3 ) Both can be upgrade easily to Android 4.0 or I need to be skilled in that ?
4 ) About hacking stuffs etc those phones are good and supported by comunity ? Cause cant find any forum for them and makes me scared
thanks a lot for your time, i hope to be an active part of this comunity soon
any feeedback pls ? gotta buy 1 soon
Galaxy S Advance over Xperia U:
• 768 MB RAM
• Slimmer
• Support SD card
• 4" TFT Super AMOLED
• Bluetooth v3.0
• Gorilla Glass display
Xperia U over Galaxy S Advance:
• Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine
• Sony 3D surround sound audio technology
• USB On-the-go support
Better Samsung Galaxy S Advance.
thanks a lot for the reply, but those points I got them also from reviews online.
I'm more interested in other questions .

1. I think those 2 phone are okay.
2. Sony planned upgrade to v4.0 for Xperia U. No info about Galaxy S Advance, but you should wait for custom ROM.
3. I think Galaxy S Advance will soon supported by comunity. Not sure about Xperia U.
ouch so if I buy it tomorrow I have a phone with gingerbread still on , till a future upgrade -.-
Take a look at xperia Sola and P too. Those are similar in price to Advance (I'm not sure, we don't have Advance in market yet) and are better spec-wise than Xperia U. And none of them are huge, Xperia P is 4" like Advance, more RAM, better camera but worse display (I think, Advance is Super AMOLED while P is TFT, but I'm not sure how noticeable it actually is in person. Some people say P is actually better.), Advance has better replaceable battery and SD card slot.
I have no idea how the support from moders will look. I'm thinking about Advance too, but it's not top of the line phone, merely an upgrade to Galaxy S and as such it might not get any custom ROMs whatsoever. Or it might.
well i gone to the mall and saw they havent xperia U but advanced galaxy S its at 339 while Samsung nexus galaxy its at 399
I think gonna take the nexus then, seems so much better
Yes, for this price, you should get the nexus i guess.

I don't think the advance is a dual core...I belive it's a faster clocked I9000 Both are very good phones...I still use my I9000 now with Jelly Bean ...
Maybe look at the Samsung S2 or the google Nexus I9250 both are in your range.
Personally I would go for the I9250 because the upgrades are official and the screen real estate is 1280x720 which is very nice for reading webpages

Thx for reply.
I didn't see that the price of google nexus was close to S2 advance and Sony Xperia P, you save me =).
Really, i'm surprised, I thought that it was above U$500 the Google Nexus.
Now I'm sure what phone to buy.... thx a lot.

If you're into custom roms I'd try to get a used GNex. It's still a good phone with an awesome community and good for another 1-2 years. Imho the community is much more important than the specs nowadays. The OMAP4460 is far away from beeing top notch but if games are not your main concern its performance is adequate. All the features you need in a package much more beautiful and handsome than the Nex 4 (The Gnex does not have inductive charging but it's easy to DIY).
If the Rom is not important or Hardware is the most important thing the 4x HD might be the best choice (but don't bet on getting JB no matter what LG is telling you ).
mmmm im really undecided ....
O4X HD has Roms too, just not as many. And its in black or white

4x hd is made by lg meaning lack of sources and it also gets late updates.
Gnex has the best rom support, but is getting outdated
and imo the xperia ion is the best choice.
its new, got nice specs, and very open source with nice prompt updates
Let get Xperia Ion or Xperia Z the same

Let get Xperia Ion, It looks nice and got good configuration. If you used to check it one time, you can decide easilly; Or you can take the Xperia Z for the same

If you intend to play around with your device a lot (Kernels, Roms, Mods), I'd say the Nexus. If you're not planning to do so, id lean more towards the Ion due to the more reliable company to this day im still iffy about LG
