Not Worth it. Go for a Defy instead.
And once you decide to buy i9003, then you will probably need to change your id too, you will no longer remain cool.

Go for any 2nd hand nexus device.
Well he may not be interested in Rom development n may be happy with his stock Rom...in that case the stock Rom for this phone are pretty good.

I would have offered u my phone which is 1.4 yrs old but still in excellent condition. But I can't because of some personal reasons.
Bro don't buy this phone if you already had it go switch it up or something get a second hand nexus like someone else said or a second hand s2 trust me it's screen is amazing I would rather go with S2's screen then S3's higher resolution screen. S2's screen is amazingly clear, great color, truly vibrant color.

And an amazing burn in effect after 2 months of use.
Just get the nexus/S3 or just this device.. depends on your wallet.
Just saying, you'll probably find no one willing to sell you a device here, because the chance of being in the same place is slim, thus requiring annoying shipping costs and hassle, buying/selling a used one from shops is easier.
MY OPINION: If you can get the nexus/S3 used or new, get them and DO NOT ever think about this damned device again.
Come on guys. This phone isn't that bad. I don't see a need to be so negative about this phone.
I don't have any major issues with this phone. It worked very well for me on almost all ROMs that I've tried.
Of course this phone is not i9000 or i9100. And we all knew it when we bought it substantially cheaper than those models. Stop complaining and enjoy the moment (partially working video recording with CM9)

Everytime i update my SCL i feel like i bought i new phone! ICS works pretty good and day after day it becames always better and if understood correctly Dhiru is porting JB, so it' not over
Our phone us not that much bad in my opinion
i think our phone is better than i9000 expect gpu and development. if i9003 was an international model instead of i9000 we could have better roms STABLE including JB with much more developers. but just gpu is lower a bit.

It's anyone's guess at this stage what the next Samsung Galaxy smartphone is going to be like, lots of rumors doing the rounds personally im happy to wait until next year with the GS2 which is still the best in the business.
[The rumored specs of the GS3 though do sound amazing]
Awesome specs but I wish they provide better software support to existing sgs n sgs 2 my sgs 2 is still on 2.3.3 waiting for updtes to arive in india n I dont wana flash as its already working awesome at least til warrenty lasts

For my part I hope Samsung do more both hardware, and software, testing before launching the SIII.
On Tuesday I'm going to send my S2 and Tab 10.1 back for repair.
The S2 have random locs/reboots and somewhat loose homebutton.
The TAB has watermarks/newton-rings.
Maybe I have been unlucky with my first Samsung devices but I have never had devices, 30-40 phones and pc's over the years, with faults like this after only 2 months use.

You're claiming to have an iphone 5?
4.3" is big enough, add a case and you're carrying a novel in your pocket, 4.7" will be like carrying a box of cereal in your pocket. That said, if it's light, and slim, it might not be so bad.

I don't care if any one think's I do/don't have an Iphone "5" or not. I like my galaxy s2 better any ways.
Edit: ontopic
I think 4core phones will be when the smart phone market nears it's highest point. The S3 may start to get Iphone like sales as well if it get's to the states faster than the S2.

Cr-48
A game I can't name at this time( They will come to get me if name it.)
And now the Iphone ok.
P.S Ok so not a lot, but you get the point. The Cr-48 was the coolest to me and I have not had the phone for long they are just geting them in. I did not think every one would be so mad, but the ICS thread should have spelled it out for me.
Now about the Iphone part, I was just saying I am unlikey going to buy the S3, but it should be cool and I can't wait to see it.

I was planning to buy nexus s nd i even got a deal for $359
But after the launch of samsung galaxy nexus,samsung has stopped all the warranty and after sales service for the nexus s
So which phone should I buy??

What carrier? That is alot to pay for an outdated phone. You can get a used phone that is much better for $360...

Don't get a nexus S, its a hardly upgraded vibrant that was a complete waste of money on release. I bought a used one for 180 and gave it to my 5 year old sister it was such a letdown.
If you really must have a developer phone when wait for the Galaxy Nexus. Otherwise, I recommend any of the Samsung branded phones. I love my Galaxy Captivate, my wife uses the new Galaxy Infuse and the Galaxy S II looks bad-ass IMO.

I don't completely disagree, although the Vibrant was priced similarly just anywhere I looked (at least in my part of Canada back when I bought mine).
Sometimes wish I got the Vibrant for the Gorilla glass, but I'm definitely loving the dev community the Nexus S has. That's what is really making me feel like I made a good decision.

Enough in my honest opinion, seeing how some lesser phones still get development for a few months after becoming "obsolete" in the sense of their technology getting slightly outdated.
Nevertheless, I think all Nexus models will get decent development, judging from the Nexus One and S.
It's a game nobody will win, technology is forever going further and the moment you buy something, there's something new right around the corner or already available on the market. You can always decide to play the waiting game if you're not in need for a change right now, just don't get stuck waiting forever...

A damn lot! Look at the Nexus One! If I'm not mistaken, Dr Kmobs from cyanogenmod is still using and developing for his. The nexus One was either the first or second device to get an ICS SDK port. Not everyone can afford the latest and greatest, any dev phone will get a fair amount of custom ROM love. If you can get a good deal on a nexus S, and you think its what you want, go for it. You aren't gonna be left behind any time soon. That said, if you want the very latest and greatest, get a galaxy nexus, its a huge upgrade.

Nothing like a huge cover to keep it from getting scratched!
Can't wait for the day our phones are near indestructible bricks lasting forever on a charge. It's sad to have such sexy technology getting covered with covers, enhanced with bulky batteries and needing to be constantly plugged in.
Likely the only reasons I miss the days I was using dumbphones, they were indestructible or of no real value, they would last a week on a charge and definitely did not cost as much.

my suggestion, watch Craigslist. My gs2 cost me 280 dollars like new.
I think xperia neo is also a good option.
I am getting it for the same price($359)
But I want to get the ICS update as fast as possible...
And acc. to you guyz wen will we get some used GALAXY NEXUS (NEXUS PRIME)
on ebay.com
I will strongly recommend you Samsung Galaxy S2 if your budget provides. Other than that, Nexus S is actually a pretty good phone (very good for this price). The next Google phone series is Galaxy Nexus which will be priced around 35k (INR). That may overkill your budget.
Better stick with Nexus S. It will also get the ICS update very soon, at least earlier than other non-stock android phones (Galaxy S2).
As for Xperia Neo V, it is a great phone too, if you can get it around for 15k (@ adexmart). You may want to try both of these phones at a retail store. Thumbs up to whichever suits you better.
To be honest, you may want to ask for such queries @ thinkdigit. They're aware of the Indian smartphone market better.
I love my NS. The development community is very active, and it'll get even more so when ICS is pushed to the NS!
Plus, with Voodoo and a very stable CyanogenMod build, it blows the doors off my old Vibrant. The stock-black with no carrier branding looks very sexy, too.

Hey...well im Egyptian too. good to see u here, this phone is great, only few unfortunate customers got buggy devices, just make ur mind up, if u want better looks and camera go for neo v . im using this phone from around 6 months and i have no problem till yet...and im happy with it, only problem is the battery drain...Salaam
gt i9003 is a mid to high end phone with a good price tag (costs a bit less than galaxy ace in some stores!) and it a good phone for normal everday usage. The battery life is great, the battery can last for 3 days if you are normal user, mine is celebrating its 4th day
Its very worth its price, only if you are unfortunate and get a buggy device. Normally 1 change of the motherboard and it'll be alright
Cheers

This phone is definitely worth buying especially now our development community has grown so much recently
i recommend the 9000
it has a much bigger community and therefore more roms
from what i heard a working ics rom too
depends on the price you pay!
If its under 300 US$ (without contract, of course), its worth every penny!
If its above this pricetag, i wouldnt bother with it since its a rather old device with not much developer support

well we can't say that its grown bec. dev's come and go mainly bec. not much people have this device compared to the galaxy S and S2 but there is progress on custom roms on this device. But it all goes down to how much you want to pay. For me it's definitely worth every damn cent.

I think it´s a great phone to buy.
It works well, I like the battery capacitiy (mine lasts between 1,5 or 2 days.), you can install lots of roms and updates easily.
Its a pretty good phone , good for the price too. i bought it to get into Android and i fell in love with the OS , i always hated Apple and their products so Android came to the rescue.. Samsung support for this model however sucks but the community is always building custom roms and fixing things up so its pretty well worth it..
Hi i've been on this site forever but never been much of a poster ! Started with the classic Galaxy on android 1.5 then went for the Galaxy S , had a ton of HTC's and then the Galaxy S 2 , broke the screen after a few days , back to a galaxy S , broke the screen as well . Just got a note .. and the screen is already broken too !! Ho well , i guess i should not have those phones with my kind of jackassy lifestyle.

Thing is i always get otterbox with my phones. Been working for Bell (montreal) telecom and i get them cost so its worth it .. Sometimes otterbox is like 100$ so ita always better cost. But the screens still break. My note can survive a while cause the crack is like covering 5% screen one long ass line goin thru the kb area. Anyway !! They should start makink huge phones with screens like the nokia c series. Bashed em with scissors/keys and whatnot and they never break. Minor scratches. Would be 200$ more on the phone but 300% worth it !!

Pretty good actually . Speed could be better since its a dual 1.4 but it does what it does. Issues with some games that display wrong textures etc. But the s pen is useful to me in PS touch/Autodesk sketchup when i go meet clients and pre scribble som logos while brainstorming. Cant wait for another version of a big phone with the same or better featurea. Id go up to 6inch i think . After that its kind of retarded to call it a phone.

Anyhow, in A110 Screen is as good as in i9003 and its huge 5" screen. Sound is amazing and Its a dual Core 1GH phone. And in 9500 as well. ICS 4.0.4

@Shail ... There's a saying "Mehenga ek baar roye, sastaa baar baar roye". Rough english translation "If you buy a expensive product, you'll be crying just once, but if you buy a cheap product, you'll be crying more often".
On micromax, i feel they make kinda good phones, but lacks developer support. As far as i know you, i'm sure you're are flashoholic like me and will miss new roms that you can only find with mainstream phones.
Again, I did buy and try a lot of micromax(a61 a45)/zte(dont remember model name)/spice(mi280 and the new ones etc) phones for my staff, but personally use only Nokia or Sammy hardwares only. These budget phones get unexplained heavy lag after few months of usage. Maybe cheap hardware or bad os development from their engineers.
End Note: Keep your SL. We're in for good times, and after being patient for so long we cannot afford to lose a good user like you. If you want buy the micromax phone, and after couple months if you still think its better than SL, get rid of the SL. I'm sure latter wont happen.

Again, I did buy and try a lot of micromax(a61 a45)/zte(dont remember model name)/spice(mi280 and the new ones etc) phones for my staff, but personally use only Nokia or Sammy hardwares only. These budget phones get unexplained heavy lag after few months of usage. Maybe cheap hardware or bad os development from their engineers.
End Note: Keep your SL. We're in for good times, and after being patient for so long we cannot afford to lose a good user like you. If you want buy the micromax phone, and after couple months if you still think its better than SL, get rid of the SL. I'm sure latter wont happen.

not worth, its only a cheap china phone, cooked on mk6577.
first off all - warrianty. will you get fully supported and fully covered?
2. accesories. extra, extended batterie? covers? will you get them, if you need of course
3. dev support. it highly cutted ICS, so if you going to get some other roms - forget it. not mention about miui, aokp, themes, etc.
4. build quility. are you getting same as everyday brand? net mention of extra parts, like digitalizers, screens, oards, cameras, speakers
5. if you still thinkin goin cheap - buy smth like this
will save some extra dollars.
6. value. just think, what selling price would be after a year? 10%, less?
good luck

You Guys are making me very confused and even emotional too.......Actually I too love my phone yar....!!
Need to think again I guess.
All they said are so true. I was tempted to get a nexus, almost bought it. Then the news about kernel 3 made me hesitate. I took some time to think, I increased my research on that phone especially about the negative side, to not get blinded by the awesome specs and awfully low price. Suddenly I saw a HUGE downside of that phone.
Wow, I could have wasted on that fragile phone instead of my SL.
So, now I'm proud of my current phone. My first ever Android phone.
Oh I remember the first time using Odin, flashing XXLE4 firmware on my phone....

Do NOT take the Micromax Canvas 2. It has a ****ty MTK processor. I had a MTK6516 based phone that was absolutely horrible. Games wouldn't play properly and would have distorted color, slow poor performance. It couldn't even play music without skipping. It was also marketed as dual-core but it isn't.
As the Micromax Canvas 2 also has an MTK processor, it might also have a "fake" dual-core.
The Radio/Modem CPU is an ARM7, probably an ARMv3 or v4.
Often advertised as dual core, but this is misleading, the 2nd core runs the radio and will not be usable for applications. In fact, any proper smartphone has a separate smaller core for the GSM radio, so real dual core phones in fact have 3 cores

You might want to do some research on the exact MTK processor in the Canvas 2, maybe it doesn't have these problems.

There you have it... The Catch...!!!
dont go for it
Dont go for it son.
Its cheap but inviting trouble just like wife. (Worries Invited for ever).
But you can keeeep it separately if u wanna.
of course I dont deny that i9003 is equal as well.
But Wait for our devs. Its a humble respect we ought to give them.
read the review
http://tech2.in.com/reviews/smartphones/micromax-superfone-canvas-2-a110-review/632102
You may conclude that¡¡¡
If u wanna buy it then dont sell the i9003.
Keep both phones.
