Microsoft Phones with Old snapdragon processor - Good to buy? - General Topics

Hi
Android phones are using Snapdragon 410, 615 -
The cost of the phones are around 15k (mi4i, samsung galaxy j5)
But microsoft is using snapdragon 200, 400 on their phones.
Is it comparable?
Can i just buy the phone? Lumia 540 Dual Sim
Even it has no 4g, it costs 10k INR
Windows Phone v8.1 operating system with 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor, 1GB RAM, 8GB internal memory expandable up to 128GB and dual SIM (GSM+GSM)
Why snapdragon 200 processor phone costs around 10k?
I don't see any android phones coming with SnapDragon 200 nowadays.

[Q] Best place to buy generic android phones?

I've been looking at knockoff android phones from a couple of different sites. Being a nerdist that I am I thought about getting one of these generic phones to use as a multimedia device. I thought about getting one of the quadcore phablets to use since some of them are pretty cheap but I don't plan on using cell service with it. I'm stuck on Verizon so this is purely a small(ish) wifi media device.
I've looked at Android-sale.com and pandawill.com and wanted to know if anybody else knew of any other good sites to order from. I've seen a lot of posts about the Goodphone i5 in the general threads and saw the Goophone i9 up on Android-sale that looked interesting.
Can anybody recommend me a good site/phablet to order from. Preferably want a site that uses paypal since I don't trust giving cc info out to one of these websites? Thanks for the help.

I own it this is a really nice phone. I'm living in China so I bought it for 1888 RMB, I guess it's going to cost a little more from retailers.
You can find tutorials to root it, flash a CWM based recovery and you can find ROMs over there to get the gapps working and other optimization.

[DISCUSSION] Choose your Oriental (China) poison

Hey All
I think its high time we pay some serious heed to the Asian Sleeping Dragon(s) who have just recently awaken over the past few years.
Below are the current Flagship models of some companies which I have chosen. I am not able to post the full specs links here, but you can google it easily.
This are mainly current top models who are in the market or are very close to being launched. There are a few being launch soon but not included as too little is known about them.
1. Oppo Find 7 5.5" 4G/LTE
Quad Core - Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801 2.5Ghz Krait 400
Adreno 330
3GB Ram
32GB
Approximate price ~ CNY3.498 +
2. Xiaomi Mi4 5.0" 4G/LTE
Quad Core - Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801 2.5Ghz Krait 400
Adreno 330
3GB Ram
32GB
Approximate Price ~ CNY1999+
3. Meizu MX4 (It will be officially annouced on 2nd Sept 2014, hence current specs are not confirmed)
Samsung's octa-core Exynos 5433 SoC
No information on GPU
3GB Ram
Range of internal memory probably starting from 16GB
Estimated Price Tag ~ CNY2,499 +

Quad Core - Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801 2.5Ghz Krait 400
Adreno 330
3GB Ram

HiSilicon Kirin 910T Quad-core 1.8 GHz Cortex-A9
Mali-450MP4
2GB Ram
16GB
Approximate price ~ CNY2888
Based on the pass few weeks in China, I had personal hands on for the ZTE Z7, Huawei Ascend P7 and Oppo Find 7. All the 7s
The one that actually felt best on my hands (I am 6 feet) was the ZTE 7 and its lesser brother the Z7 max.
I did not have the opportunity to try the Xiaomi Mi4 as it was no where to be seen even after it launched (sold out the minute it released I suppose).
I can only hope that the design was not as bad as the Mi3. For me it looked like the giant version of one of the Ipod nanos a while back
Neither did I have the chance to check out the Meizu MX4 as it was not out yet.
The Xiaomi Mi4 currently ranks as the most value to cost effective phones we have yet seen, given its impressive specs and better looking design on photos (at least way better than the Mi3)
For me I would take the ZTE and Xiaomi anytime based on their similar designs, however I have yet to see the official pictures for the Meizu MX4 (not to be confused with the 4-core model)
In the meantime I am happy with my ZTE Z7 max which cost me CNY1999, lesser screen quality (not 2k resolution, but still 1080p 5.5") and ram (2GB vs Z7 3GB) than the Z7 but everything else is the same.
So choose your poison.
I would take the Xiaomi Mi4 because of MIUI v6 and defenitly more development than the other chinese mentioned phones.
November/December will my HTC One M8 arrive !

Best price/performance phone for gaming?

Greetings.
So it's soon my birthday and I'm thinking of replacing my good old ZTE Blade phone for a new one.
And I'm looking for a budget device mostly for gaming and emulating. Is there a website with performance listings or something?
I used THIS website to check GPU Gflops but they don't really matter that much since some phones were stuttering on games like vice city.
So these are the phones I'm looking in to since they're cheap and they have great hardware.
The pricing like this is in Lithuania so the phone might be cheaper on your country.
They might look very cheap to you but here minimum monthly wage is 260 euros.
Gigabyte Gsmart Akta A4. ( 129,99€ )
Display 540 x 960
Chipset Mediatek MT6592
CPU Octa-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A7
GPU Mali-450MP4
MEMORY Internal 8 GB, 1 GB RAM
BATTERY Li-Ion 1800 mAh battery
LG E975 Optimus G ( 227,35 € )
Display 768 x 1280 pixels
Chipset Qualcomm MDM9615/APQ8064
CPU Quad-core 1.5 GHz Krait
GPU Adreno 320
MEMORY 32 GB (25 GB user available), 2 GB RAM
BATTERY Non-removable Li-Po 2100 mAh battery
LG G2 ( 269,00 € )
Display 1080 x 1920 pixels
Chipset Qualcomm MSM8974 Snapdragon 800
CPU Quad-core 2.26 GHz Krait 400
GPU Adreno 330
MEMORY 16/32 GB, 2 GB RAM
BATTERY Non-removable Li-Po 3000 mAh battery
Nexus 5 here costs whopping 356.23 € and it's the cheapest I found. It goes for 400 average.
So what would you recommend out of these 3?
And most importantly, do you know any other budget gaming phones with great performance?
I think 1080P display is too much it takes too much power out of the GPU and most games don't have an option to change render resolution.
The best spot for it would be 720P at most.
I want to play graphically intensive games like GTA San Andreas and emulate Nintendo DS and etc.
And here's the looks of the three mentioned phones:
Anyone?
Well i must recommend you the Nvidia Shiels Tablet....
I this this is one of the best for gaming purpose..
