Okay, I’ll leave you with your opinion; everybody is entitled to their own.
LG Optimus 2X or Galaxy S2…
Both are great…
But i suggest the optimus 2X… Its really great.
Hi,
I myself want to get the dual core phone…but none except the atrix are out and also a lot of negative comments about attrix are there for its poor battery life at XDA forums/
Also i think Galaxy S2 would be the winner here..but lets see for its pricing and i doubt which version would make it here in india wether the tegra2 version or the one with the orion processor
Can you wait till April/May?If no,then no point discussing about dual core phones.If you want to buy a powerhouse phone right now,try to get hold of a sgs(some shops still have it)or buy desire hd and suffer with it for a year before the battery completely dies on you.
hey can you name a few shops that still have the original galaxy S
and also please mention the price
I have seen one today in RG cellular kolkata,didn`t enquire about the price.
Oh ok
i am contemplating buying a new phone but the prices are kinda high now
as in my option for now is Galaxt SL which is for 19.5k
waiting for the price to go down
can you please check the price for SGS
i am in Bangalore
so anyone with Bangalore related information are welcome
Go for Tegra 2 based, the bonus??? Gaming, the Tegra ZOne games are amazing and look amazing too.
Android market place hardly has hardcore games, Tegra Zone will change it.
SGS is 24999 on flipkart, DHD is at 26399.
No flash+slow updates vs poor battery, hmm decisions.
Also the dual cores might be 30k+
I would say wait and go for the LG Optimus 3D.
It outperforms SGS2 & LGO 2x almost in all departments !
SGS2 will be pwnage. It will also be insanely expensive (seems 600 GBP :|) I doubt you’ll have one in the US before April end/mid May.
Why exactly would I want to get an SGS1 when an SGS2 is in the offering especially when the SGS1 is out of production and Samsung has had shortages of their SuperAMOLED screens (and hence the SLED packaged SGS versions).
Just wait sometime and get the galaxy s2 beast.. Bigger , thinner , better , battery life too , faster… 8 mp , 16gb , better screen ! I won’t go for HTC and SE at all. Wait and get that beast.
Yes. But there aren’t any ETAs, are there? I know the GS2 is going to be insane. It’s small and pretty darn awesome but with no ETA, it’s kinda depressing Lack of news sucks.
Also, when it comes out MotoBlur vs Sense UI vs TouchWiz, I’d really prefer Sense UI over TouchWiz over the MotoBlur. Too bad HTC isn’t coming out with anything soon
I don’t think any Dual-core phones would be under 30k. The pre-order price of SGS II is outrageous (about INR 50k). So I think it is better that you forget about Dual-core now.
Another update is about a leaked phone Samsung Galaxy S II Mini. It has a single core 1.4 ghz processor & almost similar specs to SGSII. It is rumoured to be released next month & I believe that it would be priced under 30k (probably under 20k). In that case, this would be a great buy.
Other options that you have are:
SE Xperia Neo, Arc and HTC Incredible S.
Don’t forget that OP’s budget upper limit is 30k. Optimus 3D will cost atleast 35-36k, whereas Optimus 2X is expected to be 30k.
The Optimus 2x is on my radar for sure. I have never been confident about LG’s phones but the original Optimus seems to be good (from what I hear). I doubt LG would release too many updates but as long as it’s hackable (xda-dev ftw), I’ll be happy with it
As for the SGSII being around 50K, I never heard of that. That is indeed an insane price. Atrix looks way better for 500 USD (though it is still locked. Will have to wait for an officially unlocked version :))
Update: Is it possible for me to get my hands on the original HTC Desire/Samsung Galaxy S (with SuperAMOLED screens) in brand new condition? I’ve heard the SuperAMOLEDs are in short supply and the manufacturing of both these phones have stopped for a while now but are they still available anywhere in the market? If so, for what price? I might consider going for them if they are around 20Kish and then update their OS’.. afaik, they are pretty awesome phones
Not sure how good the HTC Incredible S is.. does it stand well head to head against the Desire/Galaxy S of old age?
Before anyone suggests the Desire HD/Z, I’m not a fan of slide out keyboards (I’ve had previous HTC phones with those keyboards and I really don’t want those now ).. as for the HD, it’s too much of a battery hog for my usage.
Update 2: Seems to look pretty good from what I read on engadget.. Flipkart says it’s around 27k. If I get a bit lower rate than that, I might jump on it
Some how, I doubt that they’ll make the March 4th week pre-order estimate. I’m not going to pre-order one. I’d rather wait for it to come out officially and then pay for it
I’d love to pick it up this weekend or some time in the next fortnight..
