New phone?T or Tx or acro S or Htc One x?

Hey guys im using the galaxy s1 and s2 and modded heavily.
I was always an ericsson guy and right now tired of the galaxy.
I need a new phone, Probables are a T or Tx or One x or x+ by HTC, I need a bit bigger screen for my eye issue but the acro s seem to hold more information for the ppi?
Please help me out with out thoughts on these, I need a battery to hold full day or more, good music and screen,camera is optimal and gamin for few, internet as well.
waiting for your reply.

T or tx.
...

acro s if you want to save money
TX if you want sony
T if TX is not available for your country
OneX if you want a quadcore beast

I read that Quads are no use on apps and games? also sony dual is much as powerfull as the one x quad?

Quads are useful for games that utilize it. Apps not as much. And android overall no. But the adreno 320 is a pretty good GPU.

I came from a One X to the XpT and I've not looked back.
As it stands, the HTC doesn't have S-Off so you need to use a PC every time you want to flash a new ROM.
HTC have really screwed the pooch and I'll never buy HTC again until they sort themselves out.
As it sounds like you enjoy modding your phones, I'd give the HTCs a wide berth.
Perfect example is CM10, it took months to get CM10 to be on get.cm for the HTC. It took a few days for the XpT.
If you decide you want the HTC One X anyway, I'll sell you my black 32GB one.

TX gorgeous 720p display with 13mpx camera

well i was had a hard time to decided which one is really fit for me
my choices is Xperia T, Xperia SL, HOX, S III
but i decided to get XT, i like the design, it's better than the others IMO

Btw what are the aspects of Xperia SL? I dint see any in the xda yet!

Help me buy new phone - Xperia V, SP, T, TX, acro S ?

These are the models I have short listed:
Xperia V, SP, T, TX or Acro S.
I also have my eyes on Xperia M (but i don't know yet how much it costs or if its available, the functions of this phone is the just the right for me and im attracted to its smaller size), Huawei ascend p1, Samsung s4 mini and the Motorola droid mini (really good specs and hoping it would cost something similar to the rest).
If you had a choice which one would you go for ?

If you like the smaller ones then go for M

1.5 ghz dual-core krait processor plus 4.3" 720p display. Trust me I wear skinny jeans or skinny chinos most of the time and my Xperia V fits nicely in my pockets. It's not that big.

I would suggest one of the newer phones sinply due to the likelihood of getting further official updates through Sony if you don't want to unlock the bootloader immediately.
On that note I would suggest between the Xperia T, SP or the M if you do prefer the smaller footprint of the phone. A phone running a Krait chip should be your minimum for further dev support in the future.

None. Wait a week or two for the release of the Moto X. If rumours are to be believed and it is as cheap as they say, it will drive the prices down. Then make a decision.
Tipsters told both Android Community and GizmoFusion, the Moto X will cost $299 (£199) for the 16GB version, while the 32GB version will cost either $349 (£230) or $399 (260) in the US when it launches.

That is whats on my mind and hoping for now. I just came across the Moto droid mini now and edited my first post after being blown away by its specs. The droid mini seems to be the best.
Other than than, im still breaking my head trying to figure out which is best between Xperia V, TX and SP.
My phone usage would consist of :
- Work usage (calls, emails, work site images, work apps)
- Video calling and chat.
- High end and feel good design, handy size (smaller the better), durable
- battery life
- Ability to update to latest android and have good interface and experience. ( kind off bored with the older android versions and so would be great to have new look on the new phone)

buy xperia SP
- better battery life (almoste 2 times better than others)
- faster official update
- better GPU and CPU

SP or you are mad

Sony re fond of not supporting old mobiles.

The nexus 4 would be your best option, or wait for the Nexus 5.
In terms of battery the new Motorola droids being released have very good battery specs. Now Google own Motorola, they are reportedly adding AOSP support to the new devices, but will they keep them up to date with the latest firmware? only time will tell.

Yea Nexus 4 seems to be the best option (although I wish it looked better. Edit: ill take that back. it looks great.).
Im disappointed with moto not releasing its models for worldwide. I had a chat with moto customer service and he denied any possibility of the Droid mini or even razr M, being worldwide. Moto broke my heart.

[Q] Considering switching from moto g to sony xperia SP?

Is it a ridiculous decision to exchange moto g for sony xperia SP ??? i like the looks of the SP

delete post...

Not at all! It depends of what you need: if you want a larger screen, a faster CPU (I think that S4 pro dual is faster than S400), if you don't care to have the last android updates like kit kat and you are ready to put the difference of100$ in a xperia,
You've got the shining illumination bar and so on after that my little deception is the weight but I accepted it long time ago

Please no...
Horrible idea, It's considered a downgrade more than an upgrade. The SP only has a better GPU. Stick with the G for now, if you really like Sony, wait for the Xperia G to come out (a new mid-range phone) I own an SP but I wouldn't recommend buying it now, maybe last year but now, definatly not. Also it weighs a ton which is one of it's bigger flaws.

It is fast, and I like my SP but I would never recommend anyone to buy it now where there are cheaper devices that perform better (moto G)
It is still a dual core after all.

well the dual core krait in the SP is much faster than the moto G and it has better gpu, the camera's are on par, but only because of the terrible software on the xsp, the battery in the sp trumps the G and not to mention the LED strip on the XSP. wait till the xperia G comes out, now thats gonna be one heck of a phone

Get Xperia ZR

Xperia Sp - Nexus 5

Hi guys, i just now can to exchange my xperia sp for nexus5 (need to add 130 euros more) is it worth?
I think that this would be nice? Any suggestion? Thanks anyway!

I would say so but others will disagree the nexus 5 was my first choice but I couldn't afford it.
Programming is a race between engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

If you look at spec and updates I'd say go with N5. But the XSP is also a very good device. Just a bit (very) slow with updates from Sony sometimes

Nexus 5 without any questions

Im changing my SP with locked BL to moto G, if I can spend more money I'll go for an n5.
Never more to sony, only clean android devices like this moto and nexus, and custom rom.
Maybe in couple months I will find some extra money to change phone to n5 or newer (5,5" n6 would be awesome)

Well maybe benchmarks says that SP is better, but software is crap (lag, freezing and slow IO), it would be wonderfull to have unlockable bootloader, but its impossible on my one (orange carrier). I had nexus 7 and it make 18k on antutu after customization, multitasking was great and all creativity, SP got 23,500 but its much slower in multitasking and overall usage.
Package arrived, but I will test new toy after work :good:

Im not buying new device to downgrade software
On N7 multitasking still was lot better than stock 4.1.2 on SP

I strongly advice anyone against buying a Sony device. Slow updates and when you finally get one it's crap... again... I'm so frustrated by the SP, but unfortunately I don't have the money to get another device right now. If you can buy the nexus 5... do it! Otherwise the Moto G is a good option too. I said this before and people started ranting at me because the SP was much better in their opinion, but I've tested the Moto G and I liked it better than the SP. It even had 4.4 long before Sony started rolling out 4.3! And it has less annoying bugs which gives a better overall user experience.
Like binniebin said, you need the software to go with the hardware otherwise the hardware is nothing. If only Sony could make decent firmware :crying:
If you can have a very sexy and beautiful girl with Double D's if that's your thing, but she is stupid as a cow which drives you crazy after a while OR you can have a still very beautiful girl, but with a little smaller (you know what I mean)'s and she'll do almost everything as you want because she is smart(er) and understands you... You'd be better off with the second one eventhough people say she is less hot.
Yet another another anology: You can better have 150 horsepower in a lightweight streamlined car than 200 horsepower in a heavy old scrapheap which has the aerodynamic characteristics of a brick wall because the lightweight will be more fun... But well maybe that's just my opinion....

Better option is to exchange Xperia SP for Nexus 4 and take some cache. :laugh:
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5048&idPhone2=5364
Same resolution, quad core on N4 and 2Gb RAM plus 50€ or more on your pocket.
Plus, you will always have latest available Android and many custom ROMs
You can see for example on ebay.de that Xperia SP is sold in auctions for around 170€
while Nexus 4 you can buy for 120€

Since @KiaTheKing is from Belgrade, Serbia (like me) :cyclops:
I don't think that would be the issue since 4G here is still not introduced

[Q] Moto RAZR HD (xt925) vs. Xperia SP

Hi,
I'm going to buy a new phone and after many comparisons, I'm between Moto Razr (xt925) and Xperia SP.
What do you say about both phones?
Considering: Devices & Custom ROMs

Get the lg g2, it is cheap with great specs.

Moto Razr (xt925) has got adreno 225 while SP has got adreno 320 gpu. Xperia SP has got many stable roms(dont know about Moto).
So go for SP

Our beloved Xperia SP has TFT screen which is great when in sunlight but sucks in dark. And you'll be force to use Stock ROMs/Stock Based Custom roms, because music beat led bar will only work in those ROMs and the stock roms won't let you multi task:crying:. But Motorola's After Sales suck. They'll charge you 60% cost of the phone just to replace the Screen. Go for Sony if you want to Unlock bootloader, then relock and still claim warrenty(TA Backup).
I recently bought a brand new Sony Xperia SP for 180$. believe me if i had the choice to buy MRHD in that price I'd have gone for it.
But i don't regret buying Sony Xperia SP, I can use this as a Playstation TV alternative. I use a Dualshock 3+MHL Cable to Play games on my TV.
