Tks Nayfuslis . . . desire s cost around 23000... I am looking for phone around 13000..... I am planning to take Xperia X8.... What is your opinion guys???
try to find defy, even used will be better then x8
htc legend
what about lg optimus one?
Maybe look for a lightly used phone- something that will last you for a while
If you can find a deal go with the Samsung Vibrant, I got 2 of them for 99 bucks and could not be happier
Hello Everyone,
I am Peter Fabian, new in XDA community. I need advice from the Samsung user which for my purchase of Galaxy ACE. I need to know is there much difference between ACE and ACE Plus in term of features. Which one should I purchase from both of them.
Thanks

I think the only difference in processor speed and screen resolution.
The Ace has a 3.5 inch screen, while Ace Plus comes with a slightly bigger screen, of 3.65 inches. The Ace Plus promises better build quality over the Galaxy Ace.
Both of them have a screen resolution of 320×480 pixels, but because Ace Plus has a slightly bigger screen, it's better for the display.
They've both got a 5MP camera so no upgrade there.
The Plus has 3gb internal memory and 32gb expandable. Whereas the ace only has 158mb internal.
Ace is on Froyo but ace plus is on gingerbread.
Aces battery will last longer but that's only because of the better processor on the plus.
That should cover most of the differences so you can easily see which you'd prefer.
Hope I helped

RE:
Hello Peter Fabian
ACE plus is much better regarding features but almost same in others like both have same camera and screen width. Samsung galaxy ACE plus has 1 GHz processor but if you are very keen on the battery and would want your phone to stand for long ACE is better.
hey peter...go with ace plus

Sorry if this is off-topic here.I have been thinking of getting rid of my sensation and purchase a new phone.But going nuts over which phone to buy.So my question to all you awesome geeks is:
Is there a complete phone in the market now which has the android OS as beautiful as HTC sense+ A beautiful display like HTC One X plus + raw processing power like LG Optimus G (2GB RAM + 1.5GHz Quad Core r u kidding me?? )+ great camera/video recording like Samsung Galaxy S3??
Please guys am awaiting your replies for my dream phone. I know HTC One X + is a cool phone but it's camera and video recording is very sub-par and I won't buy it.
Super phone
Yep is there one I think the Samsung Note II is the most complete phone and for sure i'am gonna buyit for my self.cheers mate:cyclops:
I agree with batagoi.
It's the Note II you are looking for. You forgot to mention unbelieveable battery life. Note II:Check

Can someone help me to find the best one? :victory:
Thanks so much.
Okay i just checked 3 of the phones. Nokia lumia was left out for me because as i know it doesn't run with Android and that's a no go (my opinion)
I think the best decision here is the HTC desire 500.
it's screen isn't to small and it has the best camera of them. The LG also has a big screen but it's resolution isn't that good and also it has less internal storage ...
The galaxy s3 mini is a good phone too but i think a good screen and the camera are important so i wouldn't take it ...
Moreover as i have seen (on chip.de) the desire has space for 2 sim cards which also can be very useful. All in all the HTC has the best hardware with quadcore processor, 8mp camera, 1gb ram and a good screen as well as a good software (either Android 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 -not sure).
So have fun with your decision

Thanks for your opinion.. Is not an easy decision
He's right
He's right... Undoubtedly htc... Best in quality
2-0 for htc for now... 20€ is the difference... Not so much
HTC for you...
Hello all,
As my old Xperia X8 curently rests in peace I have the chance to buy a new smartphone device. The thing is that as a college freshman my budget is as low as it gets, so the purpose of this post is that you guys, the elite of the net when it comes to smartphones, could help me choose wisely.
My goal is to find a smartphone that I can find here in my homeland (Greece to be particular) or could order from abroad, that wouldn't cost more that 130-145 € (shipping included or low enough if possible).
What I'm looking for mainly is a fast processor with good ram capacity that whouldn't let me down at multitasking, web browsing, app executing etc.To be percise, what I'm looking for is the best and fastest processor/ram combination I can find within that budget.
From there on, my preferences focus on the camera,wifi capabilities (speed and range), screen size and looks/styling with that particular order.
My manufactor preferences are Samsung and Sony of course. But if any other mobile manufactor has what I'm looking for I would be glad to take a look.
I myself have made a small research on possible devices I could buy. Unfortunately I am not a phone specialist.I'm far from it, (although I would like to get there one day hopefully) so these are some devices I came up with during a quick search at a greek online store:
http://www.skroutz.gr/c/40/kinhta-t....html?order_dir=asc&price_max=150&price_min=0
If you cannot open the link for some reason, or if you just don't wanna, the devices are:
Samsung Galaxy Ace 2
Sony Xperia M
Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2 (S7582)
Samsung Galaxy Core I8260
Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus 3G
All of the above are within my budget.I lean towards xperia m because from reviews i found online it seems to have the best cpu performance from those 5, it's the only xperia sooo and because I never owned a samsung before so i don't know how it would feel yet.
So please guys if you can, suggest me the best option from these 5 or a better one that you can come up with that follows those requirements I listed above.Your help is really important to me and I would be really greatful to you if you had time to devote to my silly requests.

You should definitely go for Motorola Moto G because it comes with Kitkat out of the box and Specs are truly awesome, Camera is pretty good too.. on the other hand HTC desire x is a pretty out dated phone , and 601 may be a nice choice but Moto G offers more in Less price ..
Lenovo!!!!
Quad-core power
there more buying sites .. Like antealife inthebox and and and ..
This is no advertisment! Andthere also other lenovo phons with great spec. And good price.

I've been a big Samsung Fan, but somehow it has changed in the last few months. I'd take the Sony, it looks better and is not a "everybody has got it- samsung"

honestly the moto g is my no1 preference but as i told you i couldn't find it cheaper than 195 euros.I found it on sites abroad but the shipping and taxes would raise the price to the same level. If anyone could advise me on how to obtain it in a cheaper price like the US and India ones that would be awesome!!!!

it's like you're asking me to spend my money for half a year of use, maximum! I'm a poor student, not a naive Richy McRich!
I personally don't think Xperia is worth it's price. It has a lot of issues with it's software from my and other people I know's experience. So... I'd recommend anything else but the Sony Xperia brand.
Based on your list, I would chose the xperia m !
