[Q] Buying a X8

Hi,
i want to buy a new X8. ATM i just have a K800i
I looked around here and saw, that there is a Problem with the MultiTouch Support.
My Question:
Is it the only way to test with a sample Programm, if it has a Cypress Digitalizer?
If yes:
Is there any Shop, which are selling X8 with Cypress Digitalizers?

All I can say is baaaaaaad choice. Get a Samsung or something. The X8 is pretty old. No updates from SE anymore. You're going to get bored pretty soon.

Can u suggest me then a Samsung? Max 150€

Go to your country's carriers websites. Prices aren't the same everywhere.
The Galaxy Y is exactly 150 € here in Greece.

I searched and found the Samsung Galaxy Y for 229 is the cheapes at the Samsung Website.
The Xperia X8 is for 117€

What? Are you kidding me
Here in Greece everything is overpriced and the Galaxy Y is only 150!!!

Then it is in Germany even worser

Just looked into Amazon: Samsung Galaxy Y S5360 - 116,49
So: Never buy from the official store
But it doesn't look better then from the X8.
Only it is better in terms of ClockSpeed and maybe RAM.

That's a big deal and it also runs on official Gingerbread.
Sent from my X8 that is soon going to be replaced with a Samsung Galaxy Nexus/S II

Its not a problem just x8 doesnot support multitouch by its hardware but all custom roms have multitouch built in, so its not real multitoch but it work very well....

What about Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570? It has slightly more RAM and ROM than X8 but only the display is not as nice as X8

Pizza & a beer.

I would wait a few more months until the new autumn devices have been announced. perhaps there is a new Nexus device coming up with recent hardware and a budget oriented price?

cant wait going to buy galaxy nexus..

did you consider htc ome s?
i was
At the end I have took sgs3 but if my butget was tight i was prepared to take one s
pros:
1. arm15 on board so future proof
2. realy good build quality (even better than sgs3, and I know what I am talking waiting for delivery of otter box comuter case for my sgs3!! )
3. chaper options for monthly rental, at least 5 to 8 pounds a month.
4 nice screen
cons
1 Not samsung
2 not sgs3
cheers

If I need to buy this year,I will buy SGS2.
If I will buy next year,I will buy SGS3.
No-matter SGS2 or SGS3 I will buy used phone and in warranty.
Because in my country just warranty 1yeas and new phone must cost me about $700,so I will buy used phone.

I was thinking to switch to a Galaxy nexus, but reconsidered. Now I'll wait for the next nexus(es?) mobiles to be announced and probably get that.

i9100g no good for custom rom lol? CM10 nightlies are available for it already, yet i9100 still doesn't have them.

Bolded text is horribly wrong. The i9100G sports the OMAP4 processor, just like the Galaxy Nexus. It's much easier to develop for this particular chipset if compared to the i9100 Exynos chip, and as the previous poster has pointed out, CM10 nightlies are already out for the i9100G but not for the i9100.

Thank You
Thanks, this helped me too.

lol couldn't wait..already ordered the nexus..hope its as good as the galaxy s turned out to be..thanx guys

Why do you need to upgrade it?
It's funny... even after two years, I haven't found a single phone I'd much rather have than the SGS. Most newer models are just too damn big. The S is the perfect size, and recent software upgrades have made it faster than ever.

Yes the Galaxy S1 is most rom and mods, rather than later, and is still the best.

I love my Galaxy S and I will change it only when it dies.
It still is the best price/performance out there, its size is perfect, it has one of the best sound chips on the market and it has a big list of custom ROMs.

[Q] How phone after Mini?

How phone can I buy after Galaxy Mini. Maybe Mini 2? I wait for suggestions...

Xperia Tipo or Xperia Sola ?

xiaomi m2S lol

Depends on finance.
If you've enough money, you can buy a top-end device such as Galaxy S3, S4, Note II, Note III... Xperia Z, ZL, ZR,...
If you've less money, you can buy a device with lower price such as Xperia U, J, P,... Galaxy S3 mini, S4 mini, SII...
Also, I think we shouldn't buy a device like Galaxy Mini 2, Xperia E,... and so on. They're equipped with very old, weak CPUs and GPUs; Therefore, they're not compatible with new operating systems and applications. They're only for people who start changing from using features phone to smartphone.

One simple reason, there's no CM for galaxy core, yet.

Depends on what you realy want. I was facing same dillema not so long ago. If you want bigger dispay go for Core. I didnt have Core in my hands, but S3 Mini is realy high quality built phone.
I have small hands so I needed at most 4" display phone with realy good viewing angles, quality built, at least 1 gb ram, at least dual-core cpu, everything pointed on S3 mini.
Core may have bigger display.. but its not Amoled.. so fail.

i was facing the same issue when i bought my s3 mini. The only reason that one would decide to get galaxy core is bigger screen. Well, Core has a bigger screen, but also the same resolution as s3 mini which has a smaller screen. So Core's ppi is no that good. All other phone specs are more or less the same.
S3 mini FTW
