[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....

That phone is absolutely pathetic.It has an extra power saving core,but for what? Nothing.It does nothing.Battery life is really low in it.If you are going to flash roms and such,then S3 might be good.Otherwise,Galaxy Nexus.What i suggest,S3,i have the phone and its great,great battery life,pretty smooth and all that.But if you don't need a quad core and is not a big gamer,then its the Galaxy Nexus,BUT,the Galaxy Nexus has no microSD slot.

Sell it,get some extra money and get a SII if u want a fast phone with big screen resolution and decent internal space (2 gb vs the 180 mb of the SGA) or if u want something more powerful go for SIII definetly.
Both are good phone but if u are a guy who like games with a strong exigency and HD graphics without lags go for SIII,the quad core helps definetly.
I had SII and the experience is relatively bad,dual core 1.2 mHz and games like angry birds space,asphalt,wheres my water still get lags :/

What? Its not 1.2Mhz,its 1.2Ghz dual-core.And,if games like those lag,either you bought another phone or your phone is messed up,because
1.My cousin has a SGS2,they run Angry Birds Rio and such like piece of cake
2.I can play these games pretty smoothly on my SGA,and there would be no arguments if i say SGS2 is 3 times better than SGA

Which phone ?

Hi to all going to get a new phone but can't decide between the xperia S and the galaxy S 3. To me they both have good spec and both have there own + points
Please give your views on The 2 phones
Thanks DJ moley

you will buy another xperia after they fu*k us all with no updates...... man your crazy

samsung gs3

I would go for the SGS III.

Well if you are clumsy i would recommend Xperia S but if you need Quad core (i doubt) just buy SGS III.
But if i would be buying new phone i would go for some HTC

SGS III has 16/32/64gb internal memory,1gb of ram + Android OS, v4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich),buy it if you have money!

Didn't you dream about Sony Xperia U?

I say HTC ONE S
OR GS3
Is it important how did i send this?

I don't like HTC there build quality is not all that IMO my friend had HTC desire HD and shattered the screen by sitting on it.
And I'm always dropping my phone

SGS III
coz have quad core processor :good:

Even though I absolutely hate Samsung with my heart and passion, get it.
Sony will dump the XPERIA™ S.
It probably won't see anything after Jelly Bean, if it even gets it.

why an htc??

Go for SIII
Like so many top-end phones of this generation, the Sony Xperia S does not let you use memory cards
Also processor is quad core in SIII
Camera has more features in SIII than Xperia S
Also samsung is known for their tough and sturdy design so even if you drop your SIII... I guess their will be no problem

Take the S3, its better supported by samsung and xda.

Also the Galaxy S3 has Corning Gorilla Glass 2, so you can't even scratch the screen

I recommend the Xperia S. It is wsy better in design than sgs3...........only bad point is that it has dual core not quad core..

Unfortunately I live in WB and they doesnt ship to WB and some other states due to Govt Duty reason.
There lowest price is 11,500 INR without warranty (seller warranty is not a warranty).

It's Better to buy Xperia Sola.
Also Xperia U is nice but you can't install HD games because of 4gb memory limitation.

Oh boy! No HTC please, they are a bunch of liars. They don't give updates and their customer service people are nutshells. Get a Samsung. Or get a nexus 7 with 3g. We in salsa forum are fighting with HTC. I made a mistake but you don't.

I have an X8 and my brother brought the U. I really think it's a great choice! It's not a high-end device but all of the apps that he installed work great!

My dad actually bought it recently, so I had a chance to play with it a bit. It's a great phone, and it has a great camera.
Only problems I heard you might have with it is that the plastic around the camera tends to crack. Also, I've read somewhere that RAM might be problematic at times. No trouble so far with the unit I tried, though. Compared to some other phones and their problems, however, I'd say you have nothing to worry about

in my opinion "XPERIA P" I absolutely better
1ghz dual core cpu(equals to 2ghz single core processor)
Sony withe magic technology
Sony bravia technology
Perfect design (arc is better in design I think)
Multi touch, up to 4 fingers!
16 gb internal memory
No sdcard but u can attach USB flash disk
Higher resolution
Mali-400 gpu(4 cores)
8 MP cam
1080p @30 fps video recording (awesome quality)
Gets jellybean, but arc won't
I think "p" is around 2 times faster than "arcs"

The characteristics of that phone are golden. But however, look at the battery. Only 1305 mAh. In comparison, our Xperia X8 has 1200 mAh. Taking into account the heavy OS it has, immense amounts of RAM, a monster CPU, and a large screen, I'd say the battery couldn't even last half a day with normal use. I think it isn't even user-removable.
Don't get me wrong, on other things I think the phone is a masterpiece, but you would need about 50% more battery power to handle all that. Reviews on the net seem to concur. Powering a battle tank with an AA battery would be a perfect analogy.

If you can afford it buy the Xperia S or the Xperia SL. Super phones but costly. They are worthy opponents even to iPhones and Galaxy S3
