A friend of mine wants to buy a mid range android phone and since i only tried samsung s1 and s2 i cant recommend him any. So apart from samsung brands what mid range android phones can you recommend? And pls kindly state your reasons for choosing it. Thnx.

HTC desire c because of Android 4.0
Sony xperia u because of dual core and Mali 400 gpu. xperia p is also a good option

I'm using the motorola Fire XT 530 , found it pretty decent.
Rooted it , got link2SD , everything is sorted then... Doesnt lag , its got of the functions , good feel , no reason to complain.
In the same range , Acer liquid Mini or HTC explorer.
if u want to go a bit higher in the range , i'd say the HTC Desire C , HTC one V.
Motorola Defy/Defy+ if you want mid range phone+good xda development
Or live with walkman if you want official ics from oem
They could look at some of last years high-end models if money is a concern
If not - sony xperia ray is highly rated for a smaller mid-range
Samsung galaxy s advance has dual core mali 400 and maybe official android4. Its a great mid range - highend phone

HTC One S if within his budget and doesn't mind the limited storage and non removable battery. HTCs mid range phone but actually quite high end making use of the Krait S4 chip which performs well and certain tasks out benches it's bigger brother. Has an excellent camera on board and really clean audio. Sense 4.0 is really polished and it's thin and light.
Good phone overall.

I think sony should base it on the Xperia Play
Hello everybody, I'm a bit confused to choose the best phone on my price range.
So in your opinion which mobile should be the best from my list if we compare, processor, ram, sd mini card availability, screen quality, battery life and so on. Maybe I should take some different phone with similar specifications ?
I got couple of them:
*LG E610 Optimus L5
*Sony ST25i Xperia U
*Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray ST18
*Sony ST23i Xperia Miro
*LG P700 Optimus L7
Any suggestions I will appreciate, thanks indeed.

Search the forums. Look at some of the apps and roms for some of your choices. Choose the phone that best suits your needs.

okay, buy all what I wanted was people opinions and experience
I have a samsung note 2 and it is awesome. But... Is it on your budget?
unfortunately isn't on my budget, p.s. I already had samsung galaxy s and wouldn't be keen to have again
What is your budget ? Are you buying off-contract or carrier-subsidised ?
There are a few good web-sites where you can compare phones side-by-side, I used them myself when I was shopping around.

Not bad. Do you tried to find something used?
When I was first looking, my budget was similar (then I decided to spend a little extra). I would definitely check out used phones. I think I'd been considering a Galaxy S II at that price point, but don't know if you could do better, I think the Galaxy Nexus was a bit more - but I'd check and see if the prices have come down since the Nexus 4's now come out.

Go for the Xperia u you can find it for 150euro but I don't suggest you an android phone for the budget instead go for a wp7.5 / 8 , like the Lumia 620 because wp is much more lighter and fluid on budget phones.

Hi xda here is my "problem" : i get a lot money for Xmas and i d like to buy a really powerfull phone so i first thought that i would buy optimus G but, after the i learned that a Xperia z and with shiny useless specs, like water resistance would be released, i just can't choose between the two phones what would you guys choose?
Ps: yeah i know what you'll probably : think i m a useless rich noob, and you are right i m a ****ing big noob ! (but not rich)

Both have similar specs (same CPU and GPU!)
but Z has better display, a bit bigger battery, bigger screen, but lesser memory. (but expandable!)
+ waterproof and dust proof as they've said.!
life!
Sony Xperia Z is a single sim phone with 4.1.2 android operating system, 5 inch screen display, 13 mega pixel rear camera & VGA front camera, Quad-core 1.5 GHz Krait Processor and 2330 mAh battery capacity.
LG Optimus G is a single sim phone with 4.0.4 android operating system, 4.7 inch screen display, 13 mega pixel rear camera & VGA front camera,Quad-core 1.5 GHz Processor and 2100 mAh battery capacity.
I will suggest you Sony Xperia Z because its an amazing mobile phone. You can read full details here:

sony is improving .:good:
vote 1 for Xperia Z
Optimus g, 5 inch is just too much screen. 4,7 is just on the edge

Imho Sony is making good smartphones; I always had Sony Ericsson cellphones and I switched to Xperia smartphones!
I already had 3 android Sony/Sony Ericsson smartphones and it was never a pain.
I don't know if it's only me, but it seems Sony use a good configuration, in terms of hw and sw!
Oh, and the best GPS network services are the Sony Ericsson ones (;
That said, I don't know really if G have some better feature, I'll wait for some guru to say their opinions!

Well thanks for your advices guys, Sony now look more attractive to me, and because i m using a Xperia arc i think that the z will be the one i will choose but i still need to wait a month or two before it will be released in France :'(

hmmm
after using the xperia Z at my job (which sells phones) I am HUGELY dissapointed atb its putrid screen, its washed out and grainy, and the 1080p video plays better on the optimus G than the Xperia Z, not only that the Optimus G has a Better camera! that's right better, the Xperia Z has good indoor shots but thats it, the optimums G does better video and Outdoor shots.
If you really need the 1080p screen get the xperia Z, everything erlse get the Optimus g
what phone would u upgrade to ?
i wanted to see what other peoples fav phones are.
galaxy note 2 or nexus 4
Xperia Z.
If only i could use a sense based rom on xperia Z, well that would be my next phone.. timescape UI (if i'm not mistaken with the name) don't have that premium and professional look. But hardware wise, xperia Z would be it..

HTC One X+ purely because there are a lot of things out there for HTC.
Then again Xperia Z has 2 Gig of RAM and same thing with Nexus 4.
What ever has top hardware when my 2 years are up lol.
Xperia z looks good and i'd flash roms on it to make it like a nexus
Padfone2, only because of the hybrid tablet/phone. I think its an awesome feature.
Waiting for motorola x phone to see whats coming up next gen from motoogle/googlerola, lol
Nexus 4 or Padfone 2 atm also xperia z. No more htc due to their actual behaviour, and never Samsung/Apple (dislike).
Don't know why anyone would want a 5inch phone I feel 4.3 is perfect
If anything for an upgrade would be nexus 4 but that feels a bit big for me too lol
