Which phone to choose guys? - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Guys I am planning to buy a new phone. I want your suggestions about choosing the right one. I am relying on good battery life and phone which has a good amount of development going on (custom roms, kernels, miui, cyanogenmod, ics etc.) coz I love to fiddle with devices a lot. My current choices are :
Samsung galaxy R
Samsung galaxy S plus
HTC Desire S
HTC Incredible S
These are my options but senior members can suggest me phone in range of 23000 INR ($475).
Thanks in advance guys

HTC Wildfire S vs Samsung Galaxy Ace?

Hello guys!
I'm looking to purchase a new phone, I have narrowed my choices and my budget down to either the HTC Wildfire S or the Samsung Galaxy Ace.
I just want to know your opinions to find out which one is the better phone, and which one is better value for money.
I can buy the HTC Wildfire S for £175 (Including £10 Top Up) on Three.
I can buy the Samsung Galaxy Ace for £145 (Including £15 Top Up) on Three.
Which one is better overall?
I know the Samsung has a better CPU than the HTC but doesn't the HTC run a better version of Android? Or do they both run 2.3?
I want the phone for general use- a lot of texting, a few phone calls, browsing facebook a couple of times a day, and checking emails once a day. I'm not looking to hack or flash custom roms etc, just practical use.
Thank you for all your replies in advance, they will be greatly appreciated.

Personally I would avoid the wildfire and go for the galaxy ace.
Will run better and smoother I'm sure.I've only briefly seen the galaxy but hated my original wildfire! I have the s2 so have started to really like Samsung so far in comparison to HTC handsets!

Thank you for your reply, I've heard good and bad things from both handsets but still undecided- so far im swinging towards the Ace mostly because it has a bigger screen and i know Samsung have good customer support (From experience) whilst i have heard HTC are dreadful in that department.
Thanks
No problem,let up know what you go for in this thread! hopefully you will be typing with your New phone! Plus if you need assistance feel free to ask!

go for samsung Ace.. wildfire has a really smallscreen and poor battery.. i hav used it .. though sense ui is a killer thing but if yu like bigger screen nd better processor nd battery go for Ace
Htc wildfire s is even slower than the gio, which is much cheaper.. and the ace is the better version of the gio. Buy the ace

Thanks for your replies guys, im going for the Galaxy Ace, not only because it is cheaper but because you all seem to know what you're talking about, so im taking your word for it! Ill hopefully be picking it up before Christmas, or as soon i sell my old phone and 'lend' the money from my parents!
Thank you.
Wildfire S
I would go for Wildfire S without any doubt.Wildfire S performs better than Ace in benchmarks,it has more RAM,Sense UI,design and build quality is great,touch sensitivity is better.Ace's processor is same as Wildfire S,only factory overclocked to 800 MHz.The only problem is battery life ,a little too short and internal memory,150 Mb user available compared to 180 Mb of Ace.

I would suggest u to buy HTC Incredible S.
If i were you I'd wait a little while..
This April HTC will launch 3 new phone's from their One-serie.
meaning those phones will cost a fortune everyone buying the older HTC models will lower in price.
Also the galaxy sIII will launch soon ( no specific date ) meaning the same as with HTC older models will lower in price.
As for now i would go for incredible.

No brainer ! Its Galaxy R.
I had gone through the same list of phones before I got my R, so I am suggesting you on that basis.
It's battery life is better than the others, you can yourself check out gsmarena's battery test for this handset then you'll understand better.
SGR is a class better device. It's like to compare BMW and VW. As a former HTC IS user I must discourage you from buying this handset. Although development base for SGR is still not equally impressive as for HTC phones i would definitely choose it. Single core is an obsolete solution now.
By the time you buy the R , I'm sure CM7 would be here XD

[Q] Need Help buying new phone with ICS

Hi All
I'm Currently using Sony Xperia X8 , want to buy new device that support ICS with 1 GB ram and Dual core CPU.
More import it should support custom rom
Kindly suggest any good Model
Thanks
Go for Galaxy Note if you are hungry for screen space !!!
Galaxy Nexus.
I'd normally say Droid RAZR but since you want support for custom ROMs, Galaxy Nexus all the way. Best choice you'll ever make. My 2 year old Nexus S is still getting love from Google, I'm sure the GNex will be here for a long time.

the HTC One X its came with ICS and in this moment I have a Samsung Galaxy SkyRocket but I buy a new HTC One X from internet, because for the screen and the reviews about that phone I think its better...
S 2
Try the samsung galaxy s2
Prices have also dropped...and has a lot of custom rom support
LG Optimus Me has several ICS ROMs made for it, and for the screen, a Super-HD 2.8" 1080P display.

Lg is crap. 2.8 inches is a joke...unless you are in Asia.
Galaxy Neuxs, Sony Xperia P or U, Galaxy SII.

More features? Can you elaborate on that? The GS3 may have more features, but definitely not the GS2.

[Q] Is it worth to buy a Samsung i9003 right now?

I have been saving some money to buy a new android phone and right now I can buy a Samsung I9003, is it worth to buy? A friend told me to ask here, so i hope your help .
I would be using it to play games and I know that that phone cant afford good graphics but i dont care, I just wanna know if it is stable and if it will be useful in these times.
Thank you very much
In a word - no.there are more disadvantages than advantages in buying this device.but I will list a few -
1. Phased out device.
2.official Samsung support stopped at ginger bread.
3.no official cm/miui support
4.the main- lots of device at the same/lower price with preloaded jb or Atleast ics.
This is a gone and done device my friend.
Advantages-
1.a few very dedicated devs.
2.some very beautiful gb themes.
3.ginger bread had been thoroughly utilised to it's best.
4.cm9/10 ports.
Frankly,I got this device before I knew what xda/android really is .
"...The child is grown, the dream is gone..." - Pink Floyd.
If development doesnt really concern you at all. Well its kinda fine. Gaming is good in GB roms. We got many perfect GB roms here. ICS, JB is also good. But again, there are many devices with its price range that is better. Lol for me i like the looks of SL.
dont buy this device its outdated samsung doesnt cooperate in SL
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
what is ur budget we can give u suggestions if u want.
a big no for me
just buy a newer phone with official ics or jb
i9003 is still AED 1299 (355 USD) here at my area, there are better phones out there on that price
Go for galaxy s duos. It has ics n jb is coming very soon.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
I also say no. If you want galaxy s, i prefer galaxy s advance. it's much better and i think it has dual core processor.

+1 for Galaxy S Duos.
Looks like the S3.
Adreno 200 GPU, that means good for gaming.
Qualcomm chipset, means more support from developers.
1 Ghz Processor. :laugh:
:good:
NO
buy a i9003????

Hey look i must say that i play shadowgun and nfs without problems, but in a galaxy s 9100 its much better and you dont have to root it or break your brain thinking how to install gameloft games etc etc.
there are several developers, all greats at their hobby of develope, and actually you can run android 4.1.2 in this galaxy sl i9003, and its smooth, stable and works perfectly, but maybe its a little bit late to buy this phone, samsung doesnt support beyond GB 2.3.6, so ...you know.
Hope this helps bye!!!
