Hi all, I am awaiting for european version of Droid 4 (Milestone 4) that i think it will have same hardware as droid 4.
I read some reviews of droid 4 and in almost reviews told that camera and display aren't so good.
I want to know your opinions about camera. I'm not a very exquisite for camera requisites, but i'm very annoying when i have a camera like Desire Z because i have to be very very quiet and don't move the phone when i'm taking a picture. Dou you have this problem when take a picture with Droid 4?
Some reviews said that display aren't for gamers because is very large or i don't remember why... and display isn't very impressive. Do you have problems in games? What could you tell me about display?
Would you want tell me another opinion about your Droid 4?
Thanks in advance.
i dont have an issue with either of them...
i dont expect much from the camera, so it takes good enough pictures (see thumbnail below)
the screen is fine by me.. its a little bit smaller than the Droid X i came from, but having the physical keyboard more than makes up for it
I actually have a Desire Z and 4 inches of display are good for me but i don't understand why is not a gamers display.
greekchampion, could you tell me if the camera has a retard when takes photo? is importante for me because is the one that annoying me on Desire Z camera. If I want to take a picture to my cat, cat's head is always moved on the picture.
the camera does have a bit of a delay (sorry for the english lesson, but retard has some negative connotations with it and usually is not used in the way you used it) so yeah that is annoying.. but i dont know if that is the actual camera, or the software.
i dont use the camera much, so i have not looked into it, but have you tried getting a third-party camera app from the market?
I believe reviews have cited ghosting issues as a reason for the Droid 4 not being ideal for gaming. From what I can tell, it seems to be the same display that is on the Droid 3.
Camera delay is sort of inevitable. It has to do with processing the image captured. Somehow the Galaxy Nexus gets around the delay. Maybe its an ICS software thing?
The Droid 4 has a much less noticeable delay than my old Incredible had. But it's still there. I've had much better luck getting pictures of my 1 and a half year old daughter (much like your cat) with the D4 than I did with my Incredible, it's still easy to muck up a picture though. Its the downside to all digital cameras unfortunately. Well, except for the expensive ones.
The screen;s adequate. I havent (and generally dont) played any twitchy games on my D4 that a fast refresh rate would be necesary. It's fine for Angry Brids.
I have noticed that in direct sunlight the screen gets a little crazy.. Like it's registering a touch.. Weird.
Own and love the Galaxy Nexus, I think 16gb is well more than enough storage for on-the-go music and app combination.
The two major issues I have with it however are:
1) The camera quality.
I find the image quality quite grainy after taking photos. The camera just doesn't cut it for me. However I'm hoping that the 8MP camera on the Nexus4 (I know megapixels isn't everything) will solve that issue.
***2) THE SPEAKER LOUDNESS***
I think of the old Christmas poem "Night Before Christmas"...
"'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even the Gnexus at max volume".
That'll be the deciding factor on if I'll be picking up the phone or not, in all honesty.
Love you XDA,

Well its not release yet, but we can take a few clues.
Base on this review: www.youtube.com/watch?v=a24txcFBWyE
the LG Optimus G have very weak speaker, saying that when on its back, one might even miss a phone call. Although that doesn't necessarily mean it will be the same for the Nexus 4.
As for camera, I have no proof that the 8MP camera of this device is similar to one on the Optimus G for ATT, but maybe if it is, we can look at those sample shots posted online. I think the general consensus is its not that great and might have trouble under low lighting. Overall I think it will be at least better than the current 5MP which is enough for me.
Just wait for feedbacks from other buyers before making the purchase.
PS. I still laugh at the fact when the Galaxy Nexus was just released people claimed its 5MP camera is better than the SII camera, even with side by side pictures comparison.
I'm disappointed it won't support GLONASS, base on the specs from the PlayStore.
The camera uses a Sony BSI Sensor, so I'm sure images will be crisp and sharp. Not sure what aperture it uses though, hopefully a f2.4/2.6.

i really love Nexus 4 but One X camera is amazing

Well, just a very very simple thought: they advertise with their new feature, that panorama thing .. that's one selling point.. so the camera quality MUST be good, right?
Oh man, but I just remember Apple's Maps service ... hmmm.
Here's hoping both are better on the Nexus 4 as they are both somewhat of a disappointment on my Galaxy Nexus for me.

From Josh Topolsky's initial impressions, he stated that the camera performance was a big improvement, and that Google has specifically concentrated on low-light performance. I have high hopes that a Sony sensor, let alone a BSI sensor, leads to respectable if not admirable image quality. If the f/2.4 aperture is an indication, we could easily see this sensor beat the GS3 in terms of how much light it lets in, but it all comes down to how aggressive noise correction is, which is entirely software, and affects image sharpness the most.
While the camera is a big deal to me (a BIG deal), what I'm more worried about is the speaker/earpiece output. As everyone knows, the GNex speaker and earpiece aren't great (that's putting it mildly), so I'm really hoping this phone has great speaker/earpiece volume. Do I expect it to rival my SIII? No. But being able to actually use the phone as a PHONE in a crowded place and being able to hear would be nice.
According to Cnet- The battery life and Camera are the two weakest points of the Optimus G (ATT)- its unbelievable how the google nexus phones have sourly disappointing cameras year after year.
It is becoming a HUGE feature for people- and while software can correct come issues- hopefully it does, it has to have a good sensor to start- which the LG should.
I guess we will have to wait for a proper review to get some camera samples. that is def make or break for me. coming from a One X, so camera bar is set rather high
Sony makes the camera for the legendary iPhones so I don't see why they would disappoint now.
Wonder how it would compare to the Lumia 920

ATT Optimus G has 13 mpx camera and LTE.
maybe that's why google decided to go without the 13 mpx camera and without LTE.
the 8 mpx camera which is also used in the sprint version is supposed to be better.
and leaving out LTE saves battery.

Im sorry but how do you know that it has a Sony BSI Sensor ?

I dont expect the 920 to be great...the 900 was overhyped with the ziess lens and was garbage. the 920 will have GREAT low light photos- that much we know...as for regular performance, I think it will still be slightly below the top notch camera phones (S3, OneX, iphone, etc)
Praying the nexus 4 has a great camera...if so, I will snatch it up.
and what about capture speed ?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
The One Series camera's and the Lumia 920 have a lower aperture f2.0 which is better suited for low light conditions. Now I'm pleased with the HOX camera, this has to be on par at least for day shots as I rarely take that many low light shots.
Be interesting to know what BSI module it uses so we can make comparisons!
I hope the camera is good same as speakers..
hi all
i need your suggestions about xperia z1 and gs4 i9500.now a days i am planning to buy phone but i am confused which one should i select between these cells gs4 i9500 or xperia z1?
anybody can suggest me which one is the best between these two cells?
which one is best performance wise?
which one is best camera results wise? i saw pictures and videos both these cells on some forum and i surprised to see that gs4 camera result is better than xperia z1 but how is it possible that gs4 is camera result is better than xperia z1 because xperia z1 has 20 MP camera?
and the last question is that which one is best battery life wise?
If I were you id go with the X1. The ui is Much nicer, the Phone just looks gorgeous and is Made of good Materials, and Its faster the camera thing is afaik a Software issue thats fairly cpmmon on Sony phones So just play with. The settings a Bit Also tje 21 Mp are only while taking 4:3 piczures so a Lot of People get their hopes too high when comparing the z1 camera with other smartphone cameras.. But go with the z1 you will like it and Its waterproof

When I decided to buy my Z, I look at S4 and saw that the rounded corner design looks like the rest of the other Samsung phones.
So I bought the Z. Performance wise, not groundbreaking difference. Looks and feel, very different...
More Suggestions please.....

I would either go with the s4 or Korean version of the g2. S4 because of better screen and removable battery and better camera than the z and comparable with the z1 but top reason better battery consumption in my opinion and longer video playback and web browsing. Korean version of G2 because removable battery and camera with ois for better video recording and better low light pictures and videos and a bigger screen but smaller in size than the z1.The only thing that bothers me about the g2 isnthr placement of the volume rocker and the power button . That's bout it. The IP rating is the one of the few things that get my interest in the z but after a while I don't really care about it . It never get near water at all but its a good feature to have.

I disagree. The z1 destroys the s4 in almost every aspect. Its faster, better built, bigger battery, better camera and allthough the screen has worse viewing angles its true to life, unlike the oversaturation of samsungs. The g2 vs z1 vs note 3 is a better comparison. Also the s4 camera is comparable to the z and g2, not superior.
The only superiority you are seeing is post processing since they all use the identical exmor rs modules,
Sonys software is notoriously shoddy with their cameras since they make the sensors for most highend devices, they put their latest tech in their devices first. This gives no time for sotware development. The 13.1mp exmor rs module came out in feb 2013, the z came out that same month, hiw could they possibly have tested proper processing mechanics in time? Each firmware relase seems to improve the quality.
The z1 sensor is larger, higher pixel count (can do lossless zoom like the nokia), faster aperture, wider capture range. In pure specs it is a superior camera and it will improve with firmware.

Its just my opinion . And my opinions are based on real life hands on by using my cousins s4 . And picture quality and video from video reviews . And for being faster etc , is it that fast like seconds faster ? And if I'm not wrong I forgot which site that I visit that the s4 is one of the best in battery consumption. Well i guess op just have to go to a shop and try out all the handsets and decide on his own.

Fair enough, it's your opinion.
But the cpu is more than just speed, it's the SOC, as a whole. In particularly the gpu (these are 1080p devices) and the newer adreno 330 is significantly faster than the adreno 320. 50% more infact. Add a newer architecture, improved memory speed.
And with the cameras, when conparing a z and s4 side by side. You immediately get a slap in the face from the colours the display produces. to the untrained eye the s4 produces better results simply from the exaggerated colours on screen. Transfer the photos onto the same device and the difference is insignificant (the z initially had over agressive noise reduction which was corrected in firmware, which is why early reviews gave the edge to the s4).
I see what your saying about the battery, dissapointing cconsidering the sheer size. Hopefully it'll improve in fitmware.
Would I buy a s4 over a z1? No chance. Maybe a nexus 5, g2 or note 3 but not a s4.
I had s3 and note 2 last time I decided to buy new phone same one told me to go for z. So I was between s4 or z because of very good reviews I bought xperia z AND I REGRET IT EVERY DAY. Xperia Z is a good machine but not what I wanted. If you like to root your phone and like to play with different rooms /mods then stay away from xperia
Lol.. With z1 you can't even compare s4. Trust me I've seen both the phones personally. Z1 looks so premium. I would personally go with z. Amazing camera features as well. And customisation wise, really.. It doesn't matter as long as stock is good. I've tried all Roms around for zl. And frankly I just reverted back to stock. And if you want pure stock feel Go with next nexus 5.
What exactly are you trying compare here anyways

yeah .... the ZR seems to be a high end device for 3rd world countries , like where i am from .
in that part of the world, its very rare to use video calling , because it is toooooo expensive , some service providers even don't support video calling.
so for me, i will buy the ZR (which i did) even if it will not have a front camera at all..
i think this is the perfect phone if you dont like the additional .6 inch size.. 5 inch is just too big for me.. although, I used to use xperia active for 2 years and I lived with it...
anyway, I would gladly get this vga front facing camera because it wont eat much my monthly bandwidth if I do video calling through hangouts or skype in 3G... consider if you have 1mpxl or 2mpxl how you will burn through your 2g-5g limit per month?
my only gripe here is that this phone has no ant+...
so I take back my 1st statement.. this phone is almost perfect for me...

The front camera are only 0,3 megapixel.
They could have skipped it completely, its very poor image quality.

I mean video resolution, not photo resolution.
Even i cant imagine that such a quad core, 2gb ram phone comes with 0.3 mega pixel front camera.
So when I got my Xperia ZR i didnt look into the front camera much -- i believed that it will be good.
But it is really worse and worse than my previous phone, Xperia SL.
With this camera, please dont even think about picture or video and waste your time.
I made up my mind that my XZR does not have a front camera -- that is the only way, i guess.
I think you are forgetting the main function of a front camera, is for video call, and for that purpose and with a 3g data plan it accomplish the purpose
I am seriously considering the Z3 Compact - they have fixed almost all the limitations I was concerned about
and unlike Galaxy Alpha have a large Battery, SD Card, and fairly powerful Speakers.
The Camera performance is according to some Reviews equal to Iphone5s ,slightly better in some ways but some say closer to Galaxy S5.
Either way hands on reviewers suggest that the new Sensor is not maximized by the Software Engineers.
Will we see an Update from Sony which will be a major step up .

I wonder how well they will perform in well lit interiors with flourescent and incandescent lighting and if they can enable some better

Or , merely maximize the 20 megapixel mode to be a top performer.

I'm more interested in what Sony will add to the package than the OS itself. This source claims a replacement for SA mode.
i'd say its a good chance that the camera firmware gets update sometime close to launch. This has been the case i've noticed for Sony phones...always a camera fix and always a little after launch. I could be wrong though.

The full resolution images will always look worse than the downscaled ones. The 8mp superior auto pictures are created from 20mp images using a procedure called 'oversampling', which results in sharper images with less noise (a 20mp image is shrunken and resampled). But Sony's resampling algorithm just isn't very good. When I take a 20mp test image from a review and downscale it to the 8mp dimensions myself, using irfanview, I get a much cleaner and sharper looking result.
Sony X3 Compact Camera Resolution
Thanks DeGraff-
You would think Sony would have a better Algorithm for Downsampling an Image from 20 megapixel down to 8 megapixel than you are using-
Unless the algorithms that.do this well are math /CPU Intensive and would require too much time to process ?
As it stands the Sony XperiaZ3 Conmpact and Xperia Z3 seem to be on still
Images slightly below the sharpness of Iphone 5s , Galaxy S5, and LG G3
on most that I have seen, these photos are Online and I am viewing on a low res
phone but that's what I am seeing.
I want to be able to take some good photos for slide shows etc. and to email presentations- Galaxy S5 is sharper but TOO BIG to carry.
I hope SONY develops better Software but if they could, they would have already right ?
Is it possible to put a caption below each photo on Xperia?
Will image quality improve on software update ?
Better Downsampling Algorithm for Z Cameras ?
After I get my Z3 I would DEFINITELY pay $ 20 for a proven set of
Camera Downsizing Algorithms , one for Macro , one for Indoor Shots etc.
Could this possibly happen with Developers or as a Co - effort with Sony and Devs ?
Why doesn't Sony have Camera Software equal to Apple and Samsung.
You guys are Devs. Is digital noise reduction and correction so expensive and
hard to develop that Sony can't do it ?
Are there only 3 Guys that have the Math ?
Lol.

Now that I think of it, it might have to do with the split between Sony and Ericsson. Since the Sony Xperia Z, Sony decided to make their own phones, I don't know what they did with the people that work at Ericsson, but I assume they didn't took over everyone. So it might be a reason, that they have some people with lesser experience.

Some time ago, I emailed the developer of an app called "Open Camera" asking if he would add an option to simulate oversampling by automatically downsampling maximum-resolution photos. He liked the idea and he said he will try to add such a feature some time in the near future. It will be the first third-party android camera app to ever simulate oversampling. I'm curious to see he will manage to use a better downsampling algorythm than the one used by superior auto mode.
Thanks De Graff : you might want to tell this Dev that is he can get sharper photos
perhaps by using 3 Different Downsizing Algorithms:
One for Indoors, one for Indoors with Flash etc etc or maybe one that only downsizes from 20.7 to the 15 megapixel setting ?
And tell him many of us will PAY if he gets less noise, sharper, better exposure.
