Speakerphone testVoice, dBPink noise/ Music, dBRinging phone, dBOveral score

LG Optimus 2X65.7 60.067.7Below Average

Samsung I9103 Galaxy R65.7 65.771.5Average

Also battery of SGR was better than LG OP2X

The Optimus 2X display has better blacks but the Galaxy R display is brighter and has slightly better viewing angles.

the above is from gsmarena.com , source - http://www.gsmarena....-review-713.php

So I think its better to go with something other than LG OP 2X. So now its Motorola Atrix 2 vs Samsung Galaxy R. I like the 1.3/5mp MP for SGR instead of the VGA/8mp for A2. How about the battery life? Is it better than Motorola Atrix 2?

It'll be hard to get a Galaxy R as of now.

OP you if possible wait for the launch of Sony Xperia P its cost should be around 23K.

, where did you guys buy the phones from?

So between Atrix 2 and Galaxy R.

what i like of Atrix 2 from galaxy R is that its advanced , HSDPA (21,1 mbps) vs UMTS (0,384 mbps)

larger display and better ppi

what i like of galaxy r is the battery life but if i am getting 1-1.5 days with Atrix 2 then that is more than enough for me.

both are of the same CPU, similar internal memory.

both for around 21.5k, so isn't Atrix2 better when compared on the whole?

So now its Motorola Atrix 2 vs Lava Xolo X900 in my 22k budget. Waiting for some reviews...
Click to expand...

Then go for Lava Xolo X900

It has intel's Medfield processor Atom z2460 clocked at 1.6 GHz which out-performs every dual core processor out there in India(except snapdragon s4 which has equivalent processing power to nVidia tegra 3 and not available in India)

It has good 8MP camera

It's juice pack is 5.4 WHr which is below avg (avg is 6WHr) Still it's battery life is competitive with Galaxy S II and Galaxy Nexus.

It has Good 4" Display with 1024x600 resolution with 295 ppi density.(300 ppi is supposed to be retina display according to apple's standard)

It have no connectivity issues.

So just go for it

Good decision.. Now that S3 is out, prices of phones are bound to come down.. Xolo would be a superb buy for about 16-17k..
