To be honest, G3. Though I am I Samsung fan(boy), Touchwiz will just drag your phone down and make it unusable within 2 years. Unless u plan on installing a custom ROM (which I don't recommend since Knox is enabled on the S5), get the G3

I would wait if leaks and/or rumors point to OIS/revamped touchwiz, (much) larger battery. If not, the S5 will do.

P.S. If I were you I'll just get the Note 2. Best phone by Samsung in my opinion. Period.

Have Gionee E3, Ctrl C5.5, E7 Mini and Elife S5.5 must say all are good phones but S5.5 is awesome. Absolutely love it. Looks like a premium device and feels like one too when you use it. I was not sure about Amigo OS but it's growing on me and I am really starting to love it.

Whoever is looking to buy a phone please do look for Gionee phones as well.

I have used Grand 2, S4, Mega 5.8 all are in the same range as S5.5 or above but S5.5 beats them all hands down. I know some people love S4 but personally I didn't find it a good device, Mega 5.8 is better than S4 IMHO.

I have done lots of research but thought I would ask others who may have first hand experience. My wife is due for an upgrade and she has a Samsung Galaxy Stellar right now.

I'm amazed how G3 has better specs than my PC does. Though my PC is 7 years old it only has 2 gigs of ram, dual core 2.0Ghz cpu and 1280x1024 max monitor res.

G3 has a 4 core cpu with faster core speeds, 3 gigs of ram, and 2560x1440p display res. Amazing. I wanna have it!

Btw G2 is also very good because you can't really see a diff between 1080p and 1440p on a 5 inch display.

[General Topics] Haemon:
Samsung S5. I've done plenty of reading for and against the phone. My feeling on it is that its got the best damn hardware available in most aspects (minus the speaker). Some people don't think that the finger print swipe works for anything, but they said the same thing about the Atrix 4G and it worked flawlessly for me for well over 2 years. I figured once the warranty is gone and the performance is taking a hit from lack of updates I'll just flash it with a custom ROM and it will have badass hardware and sensors, feature filled with things like Wireless charging (buying the back of course).

I like the idea of the N5 but they cut spec corners, still well rounded but I wanted closer to bleeding edge.

No sd card, non removable battery and it's oversized for the screen size as compared to the G3 ( which also has the one first 2 shortcomings) plus you cant even buy one yet lol. I would agree its by far the best device for its price however...cant get anything else with those specs for that cheap.

Hi all,

I am looking for a new Android phone and my budget is 15000 INR. I have done a lot of research which has left me ever more confused. So thought of utilizing the fraternity's experience.

Samsung Galaxy grand quattro i8552

Samsung Galaxy core i8262

Motor g

Panasonic p 51

Lenovo p780

Lenovo s660

Xolo q2500

Huawei Honor 3c

I would like you guys to give me some reviews if you own any of these phones or any info you have on these. If there are any alternatives in your mind, please do share.

Thanks in advance.

Samsung is over priced **** in my opinion :)

From the list Lenovo phones are pretty good

But Moto G is an awesome phone

But the best in the range now is obviously the Huawei :D

Dunno any the service centre, if you can find one in your area just to be on the safe side, get the honor 3c :D

Best specs :D you ain't gonna get a better phone with such specs under 15k
[General Topics] banjara:
Thanks for your repsonse!

Samsungs are definitely over priced but have proven their mettle. Also there wont be any issue of locating service centers.

Moto G caught my eye but I have heard few heating and software related issues like battery status dropping back to 1% just after full charge and stuff. Being skeptical.

Talked to a Lenovo P780 user on xda and heard that it would require some tweaks and customizations to run it smoothly. As I am buying it for my lady, i would want it to be hasslefree.

Now, Huawei specs are really awesome and I am kinda inclined towards it. However, their phones are relatively new in market and havent proved themselves for long enough. Located 3 service centers in bangalore, so that shouldnt be a problem.

Today, there are hundreds of Android phones, and they are too similar to each other. I was searching phones on GSMArena's phone finder, and I was reading tests on several sites, but neither of the specification lists or tests (except a few gsmarena review) mention the important things for example whether it is possible to disable autofocus in video recording or not, whether the phone have built in file manager or not, ... (and there are too many phones to read all the reviews)

I want to buy a new, Android phone. Here are my minimal requirements:

- option to disable the auto focus when recording video

- at least dual core CPU

- at least 1,5 GHZ CPU

- at least 1,5 GB RAM

- full HD (1080p) video recorder, with 30 FPS

- replaceable battery

- memory card support

- ability to install games and applications to memory card

- ability to manage files on memory card

- FM Radio

- PS1 emulator and Vice City must working WITHOUT lag

- PPSSPP emulator with Vice City Stories must work at a playable/acceptable speed

- ability to install and use Adobe Flash Player

- HDR mode for the camera

- LCD screen (any variant) (or in other words: any phone with non-amoled screen)

- ability to completely disable all automatic update and update notifications

Many phones fit my certain requrements, but neither of them fit all my requrements. But I want everything in one device.

Unfortunately all considerable Sony phones (that would fit my other requirements) have non-removable battery. And for me, non-removable battery = deal breaker.

But as I read it requires root or somethig, and if it's not possible to root the phone, it won't work.

Not most new phones. Only Sony and HTC phones are coming with non-removable batteries. Recently, LG started using removable batteries with LG G3 (and always used them for the G Pro series), and Samsung have never stopped using them.
[General Topics] rtechie:
A lot of people are going to point to to the Sony Z1 Compact, which is far and away the best "small" (4.3" screen) Android phone, but it isn't available for Verizon and the Sony Z2 Compact isn't coming to Verizon either.

If you want a "small" phone on Verizon, your best choice is the Mororola Droid Mini, it has a 1080p screen, more memory, bigger battery, etc. over the the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini. The S4 Mini is somewhat lighter.

However, if you care about your phone being moddable, you should go with the S4 mini. Mods are more readily available for popular phones, and the S4 Mini is vastly more popular than the Droid Mini (which is only available on one carrier in the USA).

[General Topics] Planterz:
The Droid Mini has a 720p screen, but at 4.3", it's 343ppi, which is higher than the iPhones, and should be very clear. The Droid Mini is a very slick little phone. Very compact, compares well in size to the iPhone 5, and has the cool kevlar body. Not so great when it comes to rooting (you can't), but otherwise is a great small Android smartphone, and there aren't many great small Androids. The Razr M is is similar, but with lower specs in pretty much every department.

You should also have her check out the Moto X. It's bigger, with a 4.7" screen, and on paper seems thicker at .41", but you have to hold this phone in had to appreciate its ergonomics. .41" at its thickest, but at the edges, with the way it curves, it's half that. Fits the hand well, and handles better than any 4.7" (or most 4.5" and even 4.3") phone out there. It'll feel MUCH thinner than her old Galaxy Stellar, marginally wider, and only about a quarter inch taller. But with a MASSIVE screen size upgrade.

Take her to a Verizon store and have her fondle the Droid Mini and Moto X, and let her decide.
