[Q] Galaxy S or Xperia 10

would u guys prefer buyin xperia x10 or galaxy s.............?
i mean bth r equally awe$$ome fones......but
GS has only 5 mp cam wid no flash............
while X10 has 8.1 wid flash but has some probs.............

No Questiion, Galaxy S. Better Hardware, better Software. If you want a Cam, buy a dedicated one.

oh evn i'm wid GS...........but speria has 8.1 mp...........only diff tht stps me.........
hey does either 1 of 'em hav free navigation?

I have experience with both and hands down the Galaxy S is just much more comfortable to me. It's camera is still good enough for taking some quick snaps, which is only what I'd use a phone for. It's always held up to running games, apps etc. smoothly. I have had issues with the usb though which are a little off putting.
X10 is still not a bad phone and I'd suggest seeing if you can try them both out in store before you buy either as a lot of it is down to user preference.

SGS
Galaxy S would be better if u want to have MIUI ROM official supported Greatest android mod IMHO)

so i think frm wht u guys say galaxy s is btter............kk

OF course the Galaxy S is better than the current crop of Xperias, due to the mass of better tech in the Galaxy S I would think

Sony Ericsson are probably the worse smartphones to date, they are cheap looking, badly built and break easy. X10 is no exception, while instead the SGS is still a pretty wicked phone, especially for gaming purposes, you'll still be able to enjoy tegra games for a fair bit of time. It's also a really cheap phone right now, a great bang for the buck, about 300€ and you'll have it, if you know where to buy over the internets ofc

hey being an xperia p user i can really vouch that it is way bettter than samsung galaxy s advance ! firstly i would like to put it that samsung has a very poor update policy in india whereas sony xperia p is getting updated to ics 4.0.4 within a week or two ! then again s advance doesnt have nfc and just a 5 mp mediocre cam !! i compared the photos of my phone with my friends s advance on my computer and sonys camera had a stunning pics ! even the super amoled display doesnt compare to my sxp white magic display ! and it has lesser ram available dan sxp ! only thing is that amsung has a gr8 service support in india !!! hope u find my reply useful

Where i live the difference of price is big,s advance is much more cheap, the battery of this phone is very good and the P one said to don't last to much.I really like S Advance!

in india the Maximum Retail Price of S advance is rs. 26999 whereas that of sony xperia P is rs.25799 !! well the pricing strategy of samsung atleast in india is always really bad ! they try to keep a whole lot of margin for the distributors,retailers !! however the best buy price of the s advance in the market is rs.22000 whereas i got my xperia p for rs.23200 that is just 5% more than s advance !! so i guess price isnt a big discrimator in our country regarding both the phones ! well i personally prefer the p but well den again like u mentioned ur phone had a better battery 200 mah more dan my phone and a expansion slot ! bdw my battery lasts me around a day on average use of somewhere about 1 and half hour of gaming and somewhere 2 hours of music and approx 1 hour of other apps !! i would like to know about s advances battery life caus my firend owning the same claimed his battery too lasted just a day !!

Basically my usage is about 2 hours of music,2 hours gamming and something close to 2 hours of internet navigation with wifi and a half hour with 3g.I only turn on data when i need,the same for wifi and gps.I never let it run totally out of baterry but i can say its lasts about 1 and a half day surely. But like you said the price is not soo different in your country,and i really like the P,so in that case i would buy a Xperia instead a SGSA.

Without the second thought go for xperia if u are nt worried about a 5 inch big screen form factor. Faster and better functionality.

Bear in mind you're asking this on XDA which is an Android (and Windows) development site. You're going to get answers biased in favour of the Xperia because most people on here love Android and hate iOS. To be honest though nobody can decide for you, there are far too many factors to take into account. It would be like asking someone 'what's the best colour' and expecting them to give you a definite answer.

Dont think much dude,close ur eyes and buy the xperia z mobile.
Go for comparing on mobile websites and see difference,.
any noob will not think about any mobile while thinking of xperia Z.
So buy Z and show ur richness...

Hi there!
My first answer: Xperia Z
My second answer: [can you root an iPhone 5?] Xperia Z

Question 7 in the faq on the augmented smartwatch pro page says.
Question #7:
Will your app support the Samsung Galaxy gear watch?
Answer:
Probably not, but will look at their APIs once they release their SDK. It is unclear if their APIs will allow the hands-free and at a glance capability to 3rd party apps.

Also. This is the Sony sw2 forum. Post Galaxy gear questions in the gg forum.

The decision is yours. Remember one thing though. The battery life on the sw2 is better because it has a slower processor which does the job just fine. I mean it's a watch for crying out loud why would you need a 1ghz dual core that can't last more than 24 hours.
I was wanting to get the Pebble first but I had to wait for shipping whole the sw2 was available locally.
Watch some reviews on YouTube and remember to install augmented smartwatch pro if you want Arabic to work.

Thanks & best regards.

Wow, that's a relief! :angel:
I really want that feature, able to capture yourself and others at the same time.
Dual video call means when using skype, your contact may able to see your face and rear camera at the same time.
Thanks for clarifying! Thanks +1 given :good:

I thought it had that feature.
Do you have any game crashing issues with Sony Xperia Z3?
I'm planning to buy Z3, and Sony Smartphones tended to crash more often on games even in online gaming, is that true?
Will you recommend Z3 for gaming?

As i am always honest.
I dont know, because i am casual gamer (temple run, duet, or some sort of puzzle gamer) i dont have time nor will to play massive 3D games on phone, especially online.
But i can assure you i never had problems playing games on my older Xperias which include (Xperia Z1, Xperia S, Xperia Arc/s, Xperia Neo)
So my honest opininion this word "tends" to crash more is not suintable on whole Xperia Lines, its suintable to individuals who mods their phone a lot.
On stock Sony Rom, i forgot how "force close" popup looks like, i never had it on Z3 nor Z1.

Sounds good, coz I'm a heavy gamer.
On my previous Samsung Galaxy Phones, I always root my phone to be able to use apps like Lucky Patcher, Gameguardian, modded Apk's with OBB,
Freedom, in short, I install these apps for hacking games & to install apps that requires root like greenify, seeder, etc etc.
I rooted my phone but still using my stock rom, I never installed a custom rom.
My question, is it ok to root Xperia Z series? You said problems arise for those people who mod their phone, but all I want is just to root the phone. :fingers-crossed:

It is ok to root it, but for example greenify is useless because you have stamina and ultra stamina, if you combine them, they could make problems. So there is no point of this app, for seeder i dont know what is it.
Its simply like this, take every phone on this world, if it is stock it will work as company intended, take it and modify it, there is a chance to make it unstable.
I were like you before in days of (Xperia Neo, Arc, S) then when i bought Z1 i modified and then went back to Stock. And i found out stock works the best.

Greenify it' s not useless, it is not the same thing with Stamina.
