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.

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

Xperia T vs LG optimus 4x

Hi ,
Need some help to choose between the Xperia T or the LG optimus 4x. Getting both phones at same price of 480$ ( Rs 26K INR) .
Reasons why i want to go for Xperia T
- Better looking phone
- Slightly smaller
- Good screen
Reasons why i want to go for LG 4x
- quad core
- ips screen
- better battery
The only reason i'm hesitant to get the Xperia T was the back paint peeling off but later i saw that that was an issue with only a particular batch.
The xperia T also looks much better than the brick shaped 4x but performance wise 4x is better.
Camera on the other hand is better on the T but i dont use the cam a lot anyway.
Also even though the 4x is bigger it is lighter than the T.
Need to decide which one to buy before 30th of this month! Any help/ inputs will be appreciated!:fingers-crossed:

LG 4x is alot slower than T. I have compared them once. If you dont actualy want teh best battery life. Then go for teh T. And just get a case to prevent peeling

Seriously? I wouldn't consider a LG Device in my wildest dreams

Of course everybody in this section will recommend getting the XT, as will everybody on the 4X section recommend getting the LG. BTW, tegra 3 is in some cases slower than the Krait SoC on the XT, especially on a badly optimized device like the 4X. It's GPU is better though . If you really want tegra 3 or a better screen than the one on the Xperia T, you should go for the HTC One X.
If you are concerned about the coating peeling off, just get a silicone case. You should get one anyway.

My current device is an LG optimus one and it is quite awesome. Dev is great for the device and i've even put windows 95 one it once just for fun! I've even bricked it a few times Its been 2 more than 2 years with the device and its great but now its time for me to upgrade so yes i would trust LG and the community is always great for these phones

Cool will get a silicone case. Not really focused on GPU coz i'am not an avid mobile gamer ( DOTA 2 and BF3 are all i need )
The HTC one X and Samsung S3 start from 560 US$ ( Rs 30k INR ) and are above what i wan't to spend :angel:

A powerful GPU is not good only for gaming, but also for future-proofing. It seems that android is relying more and more on the GPU in the UI (hardware acceleration in ICS, project butter in JB)

Hmm that makes sense. So if the LG is more future proof i'm guessing its a better choice but somehow i don't know for some reason i'm still preferring the Xperia T. Maybe that's why i asked the question in this forum and not the LG one because i wanted a biased opinion ( i should be a shrink! )

The GPU in the Krait (Adreno 225) is not a slouch by any means. It's also identical to the one in the Nexus 4 (correct me if I'm wrong) so no worries about future proofing.

No nexus 4 has Adreno 320 . Anyway most people are suggesting the LG 4x over at the device suggestion thread

Most people (especially in the US) haven't heard about the Xperia T. There are a lot of Samsung and HTC and LG. fans in that forum

Get the Xperia T. Atleast it has good updates unlike the 4X which is probably going to get JB in the end of this year. Also, it has locked bootloader which means no custom roms.

LG providing unlocked bootloader ( confirmed !) for the 4X with the next JB update it receives.

And since it's probably never going to see a JB update, it won't get an unlocked bootloader either.

LG 4X HD with no Jelly bean and no update
and bootloader is lock ! and never become unlock !!!!!!!
i hate lg phones
sry for my bad En

I owned the LG 4x HD but sold it bcz it wasn't unlocked yet and no ROM's.
Xperia T sure got better build then the LG 4X HD, but the screen for sure is better with LG. What about the processor don't know it seems as fast as the Xperia T.
I think price and specs the LG 4x HD is a very good deal and you have a quad core if that really matters bcz I don't think it matters right now.
What make me buy a phone is sure the design and that's where the Xperia T take the edge over almost all smartphones !!!
Build quality of LG looks very cheap with the backcover that's from cheap plastic feel, mybe with another backcover it would be much better.
ALso the layout is very basic and clean but you can customize little bit with widgets and stuff and if the phone had great support of developers it would be sure a good phone to have .....
I will keep it with my Xperia T and it's arc design to bad it isn't has thin as the arc was.

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
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app

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.
Sent from my LT25i using xda app-developers app

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

SP for further updates... else V!!!!
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

[Q] I want to buy a Xperia SP

Hello guys, i am in a big dilema, i want to upgrade my samsung galaxy express, and i am thinking to buy one of this 2 phones: Motorola moto G, Sony Xperia SP. I want the best experience out of this phones, i think all of them can run games pretty smooth, but i am more interested of smooth scrool trough menu, apps etc. Bottom line, i want the best android experience. My personal choice would be the Xperia SP but i have read in this forum that it has some problems, are they that bad? or true? i saw 2 SP versions, 3G and 4G (this is not a must for me) C5303 or C5302 have problems? They have a similar price in my country, that is why its so hard to pick a phone
I am researching this phones for about a week, and my top would be this:
1. Xperia SP
2. Moto G
But i`m not sure, so that is why i am asking you guys
