[Q] Which phone should I buy guys?

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

Isn't Galaxy Nexus coming to India soon? It definitely has those things (though battery life preferred with custom kernel) and is probably of choice (until the new quadcores come out in a few months anyway) for tinkering. But I'm not sure you can get it for $475, unless they offer it more cheaply there. I got mine for $550ish, and that's considered cheap here.

Yup. But $550 is costly for me. Already pushing my limits for my said price range

Umm.. If you look for design and Sense UI, go for HTC. But if you want a performance device then I would suggest Samsung R or S Plus.
Thought for 23k you can even get Optimus 2x or Optimus 3D.
But if your just gonna stick with Samsung and HTC. I would suggest Samsung for the performance. No wonder HTC's Sense UI is far better than any other device out there but its just your decision whether wanna go with Design and Looks or Performance and Built Quality!

have a look at the new Htc series One,
HTC One X, HTC One S and HTC One V

DEFINITELY GALAXY S III!!

2 years ago, I prefer 3.7" phones to 4.3" phones. But now, 3.7" and 4.3" seem too small for me. Just try it first and you'll like it and even want a bigger one. Anyway, the 4.8" screen was rumoured to have a 16:9 aspect ratio.

I see. For that price, you might consider the HTC Sensation. I think the HTC Rezound occasionally gets that low (say with special promotions), but I can't find any at this moment.
I'm not familiar with any of the "cheaper" manufacturers (Huawei or the like) but it might be something to look into.

If your not in a hurry to get a phone. I would suggest you too wait for like till April or May. There are like 20+ phones getting launched by then.
HTC's One series are gonna be available globally by April. Even LG, Samsung, Sony has launched some new phones and they all comes with ICS 4.
So you may wait for sometime and I bet its worth waiting for.

That's actually a good point. Old phones usually take a price dip when their successor comes out. The HTC Rezound is sure to take one when the One X comes out, for instance, similarly for the Samsung Galaxy S2 when the S3 comes out.
So if you can wait, I'm going to speculate that those phones might dip down into your (OP's) price range. (But you should allow for a margin of error ).

If I were you, I would check the forum on what phone has the most development ... That way, you can have a lot of Rom choices hehehe

[Q] HTC ONE S or Galaxy S2?

My girlfriend is due for an upgrade she is currently on T-Mobile.
Was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on which is a better phone, the HTC One S or the Galaxy S2?

Not really comparable
The One S by a mile IMHO, simply because its so much more compact and efficient
A very nice posting from my brick

Still looking for other peoples thoughts on these 2 devices

Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium

I think its personal user opinion. I have only ever used HTC and Samsung devices so for me it's like comparing green apples to yellow apples. Find display models and play with them for a while, see what feels better, which one has what you need from a phone. My girlfriend and almost everyone I know has and loves the iPhone but i really cant stand them. So you/she has to decide for yourself/herself.

LMAO!! True! But she is still in contract....

it all depends if you like sense, but if you're asking based solely on the phones i would go with the one s since its htc flagship device now and its one day old. in addition the one s is likely to get updated while the gs2 has already been upgraded from gingerbread to ics

I think you should get the One X and she should get the One S...but don't take my word for it.

HTC all the way
HTC customer support is fantastic. They also have very good UI's. Hands down, you won't be disjointed.

I would choose HTC, customization is fantastic, so too there very many rom

prefer one s . specially its new . ICS pre installed. and also its finishing is great. with these tow phones i prefer one s without any risk . s2 is past . one x is future ..

HTC is more solid, massive. But HTC phones are more expensive than Samsung.

These are both different generations of devices, I don't think you can really compare them.
Having said that, I'd choose the One S.

Keeping this phone?

Ive been debating on returning this phone for a Samsung galaxy note. I love flashing random themes etc. But I'm inpatient.. would the note be a better choice or should I just suck it up and expect great things to happen

Suck it up. One x is miles ahead of note in terms of, well, everything. Other than screen size. But 4.7 superlcd2 just blows it away.

The note is very akward. We really just got this ones x thing in some sort of working order a few days ago. Roms are starting to show up, themes are coming. There is no phone better than this.

I did own one. The only thing that makes it "good" is the software and even stock ICS wasn't good enough to make me keep the mediocre hardware that it was running on. It was quite the downgrade from my E4GT, and can't hold a candle to the HOX.

Mediocre is a little too harsh, but the GNex is one generation old now.
The Snapdragon S4 on the One XL is a beast compared to the OMAP4 (Cortex A9). The SAMOLED HD display is nice, but the SLCD on the HTC is just superb. The One XL also does LTE. The construction on the One XL is very nicely done and the camera is incredibly nice and fast.
The biggest gripe about the One XL is non-replaceable battery (and perhaps the HTC Sense skin).

Because it is made by Samsung, the world largest plastic consumer.

I personally like sense4 when its modded a little bit I have the gnex and the Rogers hox... The one x is clearly a better phone just in build quality alone. I kept my gnex for tinkering and when the next big release of Android comes out

I returned my one x the other day and I don't miss it or regret it. With the WiFi issue and the horrible battery life the phone was a rip off. The sad thing is that manager of the ATT store I took it back too agreed. He said they sold 28 units since the release date and mine made 12th return since the release date...and he went as far as to shoe me the returned units in the back store room. I'm back on my vivid and going to wait for the new GS3 or order the galaxy nexus. That's what I get for falling for the hype over a new release phone...which turns out that's all the One X was....hype. The manager said the that ATT corporate is already told them to drop the price to 149.00 starting in late June which is the quickest they have ever dropped the price of a new phone. That says a lot to me. I'm just glad I was able to get a refund and he was kind enough to waive the restocking fee and some is able to get the system to show that I still have an upgrade to use.

Hey my upgrade deal is coming up from T-Mobile and my question is, is the extra price worth it for an HTC one s vs the gs2? I've looked at reviews and stuff but I need some xda insight. I'm leaning towards the one s but the damn price difference is where the decision lies.

I've stopped trolling and I don't think the gs4g phone is worth it anymore. I'm happy that devs are still working on it but I think I need to move on instead of begging for a new update. I've almost forgotten there are other options out there.

I don't know if it's still like this but my first android phone was a mytouch 3g slide. HTC made it and that phone was the biggest pain in the butt to get rooted due to the locked boot loader. I got the s2 and have been very happy with it.

The HTC one s has been majorly upgraded it runs ics and sense 4 ( sense 4 is infinitely better than touchwiz if for no other reason the fact that touchwiz5 can be flashed as a zip onto the one s) with no worries to the one s out of the box so you get best of both worlds) has an awesome 4.3 in 900 by 560 screen res but easily a one handed device due to the thin design. Has an amazing camera a great dual core 1.5 MHz thingy ma bob (not the most tech specific term) and i could definately see the smoothness was comparable to the one x's and the gs3 but it has no expandable memory or access to battery. Oh and a HUUUUGGGE plus is that the one s has an alpha cm10 build already. So pretty much the s one is better than the s2 in every thing except for storage, price, and nfc. Seems like a no brainer right! Its just that with a 2 yr contract the one s is $150 vs the gs2's wapping 0 dollars. I could wait for the price to drop but it was at 50$ back in April when I couldn't upgrade so I doubt the price will drop that much. I feel like this post may have answered by own question lol.

For me the deciding factor would be the development community. Which one is strong and friendly.

SGS III by far.
The best phone humanity has today, with an external micro SD card slot, unique Sammy features and beasty specs.

I would get the galaxy s 2 (or 3 but you didn't mention it). HTC one s has a **** ton of hardware issues that even HTC has admitted

Honestly I didn't know what the big deal was when I was on this forum before I got this phone with jelly bean. And now having used it for a couple weeks I really still don't see the big deal with it. It's nice don't get me wrong but it's not leaps and bounds better than ics like gb was to ics.
All in all I'm happy with the phone. Dual core is awesome, the gig of ram also helps allot. love the bigger screen. And with the 16g internal and the 16g sd card I had from my sgs4g I don't think I will be worrying about storage problems for awhile lol

I have never liked the screens on the galaxy phones. Look close in person and compare. Regardless of all other factors, the devs will make a speedy Rom with that hardware, and the build quality will be great on both.
The screen will be what you will look at more than anything else. Make sure you won't regret it. Pentile is irritating, even at hi res IMHO.
Black blacks and impressive contrast ratios are good, but seeing gaps between my pixels just ticks me off. That's just me.

Well then please make it HTC lol.
Apple is good at choosing hardware and writing software that is a bit behind the times, and consequently everything works and is smooth all the time.
That being said, I find iOS totally boring. My work bought me an iPad mini, which is cool, but I just can't get interested.

you can buy the vanilla htc one from the play store without contracts, also htc sells an unlocked edition on his site. The nexus are way cheaper, though.

I would wait on the X phone and Nexus 5. IOS is good if you want your money's worth. My iPad 2 is still running silky smooth and my wife's iPhone 5 resells for $380! That's insane!

I have been a Samsung guy for the past couple of years and still am for the most part (waiting for the note 3) but to me the HTC one is much better than the galaxy s4. Two weeks ago I had my first HTC one, loved it but I had to get the S4 so i sold the One and got the s4. It's a good phone but it stutters A LOT, you cannot use the phone for a full minute without the phone stuttering and I'm not exaggerating. Also even though I always liked touchwiz, it's getting really old and needs an ui revamp badly. At the end of the day it's a matter of preference but to me the HTC one is a much more polish device. The s4 features are cool for the first 30 minutes but after a little while they just get in the way and become more annoying than anything. (Except multi window and air view ). The one display is beyond amazing (the one x display is the best 720p display and this puts it to shame), the speakers are incredible and I find myself liking blinkfeed a lot. Less features but way more useful. To each his own

As far as I'm concerned Samsung is in my ****list. How they can release such poor build quality at such high prices is beyond me. HTC time and time again is a perfect combination of power, features and build quality. And ew ew ew touchwiz. Also, would much rather have a phone and a tablet then a cross between the two. Having a smart phone you can't operate with one hand seems a bit useless to me but that's just my two cents. Also +1 on the nexus line of phones if for no other reason than having the latest software asap.
