Well it's a pretty fast phone, I use it since Tuesday and I can say i'm very satisfied from it.
P.S I was an iPhone user.

The Current stock roms isn't 100% perfect.
But the new ones do make this phone perfect.
If you play with this phone and HTC Sensation you will think and feel that the O2X is faster.
Compared with SG2 they feel the same.

hi
and the price of this phone in my country is cool 4k less than the other two(i mean indian rupees)
thanks for ur very nice info

Well, you will feel that the sgs2 is faster and smother but that just because it is using gingerbread. When O2X updated to gingerbread, it should be on equal.
But the sgs2 do have a bigger rom but whatever O2X has it's enough for daily usage.

With me being a software whore, installing all kinds of crap, games, software, trying out one piece of crap after another without actually deleting anything it still feels pretty "snappy" after a while
I'm on stock ROM, only rooted and flashed baseband 0502..
I can live with the phone as is, but boy do i look forward to an upgrade thats gonna fix the craxy battery issue (sometimes my phone (with normal use) can run 8-10 hours, another day it can run for one hole day ( 8 in the morning to mid day the day after).. so its not consistent..
The reboot proble is not that big an issue for me anymore (one reboot last week, no BSOD)
I would, considering the price in Norway, still buy this over the Galaxy S2
It feels nice.. good built, camera is a big plus, screen is good, overall i think the phone is a winner!
-TES

Must say this is a brilliant phone, just install cm7 its very stable now, been using it for 2 days and its miles better than the stock rom. Well worth the money i paid £330GBP for it. Worth every penny

SGSII Might be a tad faster (as in smoother) in rendering Webpages, but the Tegra2 gets better optimized Tegra Apps. The Samsung Exynos seems to have many issues according to Market reviews.
Sensation seems to have worse camera quality.
I like the LG O2X design MUCH better than both of the other phones, SGSII having this fugly button and Sensation having this ugly round tricolor back.
O2X has backlight bleeding in many (most?) shipped phones.
SGSII also seems to have display issues - yellowish on one side, blueish on the other.
Best bang for the buck is surely O2X.

I'm planning on getting this phone and I have a few questions...
Is there an improvement in browser flash performance with updates because its quite crappy over the GSII and GS plus(youtube.com/watch?v=CCUkYyfBx4w)?
Is there improvement in camera performance because (again) its quite worse than the GSII - both having a resolution of 8mp?
I'm asking this because these are mainly software "issues" and most of the time manufacturers don't give a **** about them, although it would make the customers freaking happy

If you have 2 times more money to waste on GS2 do it i bought this on for 300 Euros and GS 2 cost about 570, and the improvments in GS2 dont worth 270 Euros for me...

Hey
Can someone, expecially IEski, tell me where to get O2X the cheapest?
It's 500 € in Estonia But it does come with an HDMI cable. Nevertheless it's still a bit too expensive.
If anyone can suggest an online shop that ships to Estonia and has it at a good price?
Thx.

Netherlands around 300 euros

This phone can do everything the sgs2 can, and costs less. The sgs2 can't do all the stuff the lg o2x does (tegra game play, full hdmi mirror).
Worth the occasional reboot, which I mostly avoid by removing the SD card.

I got my O2x a few days ago and I am super pleased with it!!!
Not a single reboot or glitch running on MCR F17, it has exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. The build quality and screen are top notch as well!

Hi Haree,
Sorry for the late reply! Got it for 25,500/- with bill at National market. Has HDMI cable included. Its 2 months old today, but I don't know the current price. May have gone up with sgs2 out of stock. Good thumbrule is flipkart price minus 1000/-.
I see this phone has got good response in Singapore and Malaysia, (lowyat.net, vrzone.net, hardwarezone.com forums) where the users are more tech savvy.

At first I was very dissapointed with the phone. The LG customized launcher was absolutely not showcasing the hardware capabilities, and the battery life was short, even after months of getting used to the phone.
When I rooted and flashed Cynanogenmod (CM7) to the phone, it was a completely different experience. First and foremost - the battery life is extremely great. It's incredible. And then - with 2.3.4 on it and all other CM7 related configurations, the phone is pretty damn fast! So - either wait for LG to fix up their ROM or install CM7, that will change pretty much everything.

My 2 cents...within the first week I had BSOD on stock and custom roms. Got a refund and havent looked back

[Q] Should i buy a Galaxy Tab?

The topic says it all, with the current state of the tablet world, and understanding that when the Transformer Prime and its generation of tablets comes out the Gtab7 will be 2 generations behind, should i buy one ?
I can get one 2nd hand, for 150€ wifi+3g.
Is it worth it ?

if you can find one for a decent price, i'd say go for it... it might be worth checking the model of the one you want to buy to make sure developers support it if thats what you are after.
i just recently bought myself a galaxy tab 7 and im sure i'll get tons of use out of it. its such a nice size and portable, and the expericne is comparable to my phone, so nothing its too foreign like it is going from froyo to honeycomb or something.
i figure i'll keep this one until they come out with some decent 7 inch icecream sandwich tablets and i'll sell it and buy one of those. but i dont see one coming out that will thrill me much until at least mid next year.
i bought mine for about that same price (but in USD), honestly for me the instant i saw the deal it was far too good for me to resist.

I already own a HD2 (work phone) and a DHD (private phone), so the Tab will be a complement to this ecosystem. I like it not being too big, and yet not too small.
We can find tons of 7inch tablets, bat all of them have the same resolution has my phones, and i wish to AVOID pixels
Performance wise, is it still on par? Can i throw it the same things i can on my DHD ?
How do you expect the ICS support to be? We're talking about samsung turf, and they're currently the "good guys" on google eyes, so the systems will always be similar. Yet i remain renitent... I hope others will comment this thread

well if you are looking at the one of the first generations of galaxy tabs (the ones that come with android 2.2), then i think samsung will not officially be releasing ICS on it. however there are some people who are working on porting ICS to the tab. You can find more on that in the development section.
I have a samsung galaxy s, SCH-I500, same as the fascinate on verizons network i think...
the phone and the tab have nearly identical specs, but the tab does feel much smoother. probably due to the increased ram it has.
one thing you can always consider though. 200$ is a good deal, and for what you can buy it for, if it turns out you cant achieve the experience you want on it... how hard will it be to just turn over to someone for the cost you paid? or even a bit more?
i cant really speak for the hd2 or desire hd phones, as i've not played with either. but i suspect the fact that you'll be using the tablet for different purposes would still make it a good buy. so far i think all the apps i have on my phone have ported over to my tab with no issues, seeing as how its pretty much the same OS version.

I've come to accept that RAM is a major player on this OS. It's memory freak, but above a certain point, it's pointless of course (just like a PC).
As it stands, on 2.3.x, anything above 1gb is too much

200€ is a little too much above my budget. 150€ is the most i'll give, expecially for something that's probably 1 year old (i don't mean the release data, i mean the warranty)

I WOULD be using the tablet. It got sold (bummer) minutes after the OP.
Pitty.... but i'll keep looking...

ah... sorry about the dollar amount... i was doing a rough conversion. 150 euros is about 200 us dollars.
that's something that was kind of getting me discouraged about my search for a 7inch. the lowest price i found before the one i bought was i think 330 USD, which is about 100 more euros than your budget.
thats why the minute i saw the deal, i jumped on it right away.
one thing that seems to be unanimous though, is try and stay away from the wifi only versions of the tab, as they lack in updates (even from samsung), and have little to no 3rd party development.

Message received and understood! No wifi.
Don't apolagize, i'm the one that should be.
Still, 150€/$200 is a very nice deal, i hope i can find one again.
BTW, how hard is it to sim unlock this things ?

i couldnt tell you how easy it is to sim unlock the tab... mine is a verizon wireless version, and they dont take sim cards... and i think its locked into their network.

GSM tabs are easy to unlock. Search the forums.
I've actually. Bought 3 of the original 7" tabs recently, all at or below $200 CDN. All were mint condition.
Why 3? Well. Friends keep wanting in on the great deal
The Galaxy tab, while older is still very capable. Compare it to the kindle fire or nook color at around the same price point.
Slap CM 7.1 or CM 9 and you're in a good spot.

still worth buying?

Hi!
I want to upgrade my DHD, and I'm looking on all the options.
So I want to check about the Note.
Is it still worth buying? I don't want to buy and after 2 month there will be Note 2 and this one will get old.
Do you recommend buying this device in two month? (I'm not talking at the device as it is, I did all that research. I'm talking only on the fact it's 7 month old... in two month it will be 9 month old)
Thanks!

Will there be a Note 2 ????? Me thinks it was one off test the waters so to speak. What would make the note better is what I ask. Apart from the latest 4.04 yeah perhaps a fast quad core proc but this thing blazes through everything as is. Only thing really different is the software look at the S3 what's the major diff is the software. (ignore quad and screen size) its the apps.
Buy the Note.
Ps just brought my note last week instead of the S3 and sold my S2

you will get used to the 5,3' screen and you will not want a phone that is smaller than the Note!
I also have HTC One X, quad core Tegra 3, 4,7' screen, but I use Note (of course on CM9) it's simply better to me

I don't want the new software, I'm only afraid there will be no more support here on XDA, as on my DHD. There are no roms coming out!
More people?

We have official cm9 support and a custom kernel..What more could you ask for?
Buy this phone now!

Sadly I can't buy it now... only in 2 month. Will it still worth buying? The device will be almost 1 year!

No need to think over it.I had bought it just 3 days ago and i love it
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Why no need? If i will buy it the beginning of Aug, it will be 1 year for the announcement. You don't think they will release a new one a bit after?

I know there are lots of great phones coming out, note 2 won't be out until fall at least if at all since they're releasing the true 10 inch tablet version next. This phone is all about the screen, aside from excellent hardware. IMO you'll have a phone that'll easily last another year before you start getting jealous. It's awesome, there's nothing like it.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

so you all thinks roms will still be developed?
i think i will buy it, the low price got me.

It's got some real old school devs for this device as well as the infamous cm9 as mentioned previously. Once we get stable Ics kernels there's no stopping us!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Just got mine two days ago. Definitely worth buying now, it will be a while before the 2 is released. If it is. This phone is amazing, now other phones look puny not to mention the amazing display. I thought I was looking at an old nokia when I was on my wife's iPhone 4 earlier lol
Development wise it's still very early days and already progress is being made although I am holding off root as it still seems too risky at the moment. Waiting for it to be as straightforward as the Desire was even without unrevoked.

+1
We have CM9 nightlies which should only get better once ICS Kernel sources are out.
Also, the note has exceptional demand, this surprised everyone - even Samsung.
I am sure there will be another 5.1-5.5" Note 2 in about 6 months.
Samsung hit a sweet spot with the note size that appeals to people who like large screen and the ability to make calls.
Personally I am getting the S3, and when Note2 comes, I'll just switch to it.

Guys I'm thinking of buying one cause of this great price http://www.ebay.com/itm/36045880681...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_11855wt_922
Question is will this work on T-mobile?

to the OP...stop contemplating about what may happen tomorrow, get the Note today and enjoy. Life is too short. Technology will change and if you wait now, you will wait again because you will worry that a better technology will come out later.
get the Note.......and be happy with it.

im sure the note 2 wont be the best for long, but i just to want to buy and after 2 month there will be a new one and developers will stop the develop.
in the other side, the note 2's price will be much higher.
more opinions?

Development will stop?! How new are you to xda?! Go look at two threads, the Desire and hd2. As long as there are users there will be devs don't you worry about that!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

i have the desire hd, and now there are no developers
once in a month there is an update for some of the roms, that includes only new apps and update of apps (as play store, g+ etc.).

Once you buy it, you would never wanna go back. It is the best out there. As far as tech goes, it keeps on evolving at a rapid pace. And GN is nothing like the iPhones where the older version seems outdated the moment newer version is launched. What we see in GS III should essentialy be in the Note II or whatever they call it. I bet it would be the same (maybe a bit tweaked) as on GS III, quad core (A15 dual core might be better than quad but it won't hit the normal, non geeky consumer. General belief: Quad > Dual, More MPs ~ better camera), maybe the same 8MP as on S3 again and such stuff. I hope the design is more in line with Note than a hybrid of S2 and GNex.

im almost sure it will be lighter, and thinner and a screen with a higher resolution, but i dont care about all this, because there will always be a newer and better device.

[Q] Which phone to buy??

Hey guys:fingers-crossed:
Last summer I found this forum and had alot of fun with my Xperia Pro
Now I am looking for new phone, its been 4 months and still spending too much energy to find my perfect phone..

s2, s3 mini, s advance, optimus black, one S, xperia sola, arc S

Thanks!

Camera is good with official ROM, not so good with CM based ROMS.
Rather see if you can get Nexus 4. It's in your price range (actually depends on where you are, availability and price differs from country to country) and much better than all your options your considering.
http://www.google.co.za/nexus/4/
Most of those phones you are considering have been on the market a while and the older the device the smaller the community and slower the development gets as people get newer phones. If I had to choose one of them I'd choose the One S, no questions asked. Much faster than the competition,has official JB and is still fairly new.

F*ck Samsung .
Buy Acer cloudmobile s500.
Low-price and high performance... just perfect .

HTC One S no doubt
best dual core, i mean..... cortex a15...maaannn.....that was fast........

Unfornatuely the Nexus 4 costs €600 here thats far above my budget, also I am looking for smaller sized phones.
I just came across the Desire X. It fits all my requirements only thing is that currently almost no development
Thats why I asked u guys u have experience and optimus black was my 1st choice. But how bout the camera, is it good? and speed? I also see theres alot of development on the Optimus black, the white one also looks sexy:good:

Why should I buy an unkown brand in the smartphone community? And I thoguht Sasmung is known for his good wuality cameras / phones

It has been a very good phone for me you know. It has been with me for about one and a half years and it has come over a car crash, fallen into a pool, dropped a lot of times and in one of those it fell from a 1st floor directly to the ground. I had to change the gorilla glass screen which was about 30 us dollars. It has been an adventure and it continues. Camera is not the best but as any other bad mobile camera, it takes very good full light photos. There is still a hell of a development going on. It is just as fast as 80% of optimus 2x stock if you are running zeus rom with cpu at 1350Mhz. Screen has enough brightness, everything is big and legible and we are having official stock ICS modded in some days, actually now. What else can i say? I am not marketing this phone but it is a good buy. If you are looking for a fond working phone this might be your choice, believe me. If you are looking for a fast like hell phone just dont look for LG OB. Hope Ive helped.
PS: getting a GS2 wont hurt...

Sorry to hear that. It went for alot cheaper in some countries.
Desire X is a good choice HW wise. Not as good as the One S, but cheaper and doesn't have as big a screen. (The One S's graphics Chipset will run circles around all the other phones even the SGS2).
If you want a good community, look at previous flagship phones or really good for it's price phones of well known brands (Unknown brands tend to have much smaller communities).
This phone actually has a large Chinese community that doesn't interact with this forum much. I think I'm missing our sometimes since Google Translate can only do so much.
If you can afford it I would go for the One S.
Your Xperia Pro is on par with most of the other phones and I wouldn't pay money to get another similar phone. I don't think a upgrade is necessary actually.

I told ya.. best performance at that price :good: .
It`s released in September 2012, I guess that`s why there`s no developing topic in this community.
I guess they`ll add it to XDA soon, cause it`s a cool phone .
And it`s f*cking better than S2 .

Awesome phone, but doesn't have XDA page and probably very little community development atm. A little bit better than One S.

High-end.If you don't mind waiting you could see if the Acer's development picks up before making your final choice.
When buying a phone second hand make sure it hasn't been tinkered and OC'ed and with HTC make sure it's still S-ON that way you know it hasn't been tinkered with.

When buying a phone second hand make sure it hasn't been tinkered and OC'ed and with HTC make sure it's still S-ON that way you know it hasn't been tinkered with.

Yes. I'm not sorry about it, but it's getting old. Quite a few great devs moved on already. Theres still plenty of skill and commitment here though and we might be getting official CM10.1 soon (G+ pictures from official dev has already been posted, but no nightlies appeared yet).

Lol....
No guys, its not the Htc one S.
I went back to Xperia P, again.Yes, first time I got it on summer but traded it for Xperia Pro. Now 4 months without smartphone and of research.. I REALLY regret I was so stupid! [at that time there wasnt any development]
I mean 8mp camera, dual core and handsome: the perfect phone!
Only thing is battery, isnt it replaceble with a 1750 li-on??

If you want long lasting battery, go witg Motorola Razr MAXX lol dunno if its in your price range though. But yeah One S looks superb. Hmm..

[Q] Which new phone?

I have, for the last 2 years had a mini (which im still gonna keep), and i can buy a new phone now. My budget is 25000(maybe another 3000-4000 extra also)
Which phone would you recommend?
I researched a bit, and found nexus 4 really good. But will it be available now in may 2013 in India (bangalore) in ordinary stores or only online on flipkart and stuff? and what are the cons? I have read that its display is not too good... any other major factors i should be aware about?
Also can anyone recommend any other good phone in this budget? No need for links, ill find out about it myself; i just need the name.
Also I'd like something better for gaming and internal memory(lol as all mini users would like) size isnt really a issue, just its should be above 4 inches.
And which nexus is the best one? theres a google and an lg one, im getting confused...
Oh, and i would like to thank everybody on this thread for being so helpful, you were all wonderful!
thanks a lot!

For samsung You can increase budget by 2500 rupees and buy SIII on flipkart for 27500...Else HTC has some flagships but i dont trust other companies much...

Nexus 4 everything what u want a good design , a phone from google side which will give fastest updates , and yet even a popular phone on XDA

I am also the same with u, want to buy a new device, after exploring everything i have decided to go with nexus 4
Don't hesitate, screen is vry responsive, great dev support and very famous device
Dont waste ur time book n4 believe me u will never regret
Don't go for s3, its just waste of money, i have lost faith in Samsung after bought my mini, look wise n4 is much better than s3, glass back is premium look dont waste money on samsung plastic
I m pretty sure out of 27500, samsung is charging atleast 3k for thier touchwhiz ui which is not worth it, u can always apply tw theme on n4
At last i would say, u r lucky enough to buy n4, i cannot buy it for atleast 2 more months cuz of my bad exam result :'(
