K900 my first thoughts

The lenovo K900 has quite the nice specs! But I wouldn't expect much development on such a niche device.

Also note, I believe that the K800, is still on the version of Gingerbread it launched with (Android OS, v2.3.7) so I would bet you're on your own to update.

I can only guess that it will have a nonuser serviceable battery, and I am not familiar with lenovo's custom skin "le phone skin" but apparently that's not mandatory as it can be turned off.

From what I understand, this device will not have LTE, so take that into consideration.

Also, I would speculate that this device will have heat issues, do to the bleeding edge hardware architecture.

Who knows, if you can get at the SPL, you could probably run other x86 operating systems like Windows.

Sure would be fun to hack around with :)

I'm on Sprint. Trying to decide between the HTC One or the Galaxy S IV. I'd love to continue my tradition of using CM10.1 whether it be official or unofficial. That's kind of my only selling point. The phones seem to be pretty comparable with the exception of the HTC One's crappy camera.

What would you guys pick?

Hello friends I m looking for upgrade my Android to some premium phone. My picks are only two s3 or note 2 .

Price difference is not much like 6-7k. I have tried both on shop. S3 is great but note 2 feels awesome. But I think s3 has got more development like more roms then note 2.

Size of note 2 is not a problem for a 6'2" guy like me.

I like note 2 extra real estate + more RAM. Other wise s3 is a great gadget. I just was lil futuristic gadget. Please suggest me guys . Thanks in advance guys.
[General Questions and Answers] i9100g user:
How about s4 it is likely to be priced below 40k.And it is more futuristic lol;)

S4 is easily better than n2 and s3.

But if you want between s3 and n2 then n2.

I have 2 questions ...

1.What did you think about Desire HD or Sensation XE ?

2.What is the difference between Beats Audio and Dolby Mobile ? Which is better ?

Sorry for English again :angel::angel:
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
Desire HD, hell no, HTC left support for it at Gingerbread.

Sensation XE is a nice phone but in that range you have plenty other better options like galaxy s2, xperia s, nexus 4 (if available) xperia L.

As for beats and dolby surround, they are just audio boosters, nothing that some equalizer tweaks in power amp wouldn't deliver.

So do not base your buying decision on these gimmicks.

Hi All

My GSM Galaxy Nexus broke and I'm in need of a budget phone until I can find a true suitable replacemen. I'm hoping for something with a dual core processor and capable of running ICS for no more than $150. I've eyeballed a handful of phones in this range like the Sony Xperia U ST25i/a, but I'm particularly curious about & interested in those non-name brand devices, like the Goophone, HDC etc. I prefer new but used phones are also ok, especially when we're talking name brand (Sony, Samsung, HTC etc).

Anyway, really interested in feedback & suggestions.

Instead of Xperia U, try Xperia go, it lacks a front camera though but it definitely is in line to get even Jelly Bean.

Also this video always cheers me up (though I do not understand the language) :p

Also it is priced equally with Xperia U.

Not really sure about non-name brand ones.

Samsung S3 vs LG Nexus 4?

Please + and - for both. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
S3 & Nexus 4 - Great H/W, almost equivalent.

S3 (-) - Plasticky, Samsung updates are a bit slow, Relatively pricey.

S3 (+) - Removable Battery, Micro SD Slot

N4 (+) - Great design, 2GB RAM (more multi-tasking), Always the first to get updates, Relatively cheaper.

N4 (-) - Limited storage, Non-removable battery, fragile build.

Anyhow, personally I prefer Nexus 4.

hey guys , i am a noob here and i am buying my first smartphone.

anyway , i was considering the HTC One S and the S3.

The S3 is a really nice device, quad core and a 300+ ppi screen.

however , the HOS costs around 290$ while the S3 costs around 450$ here (both are unlocked) although , i have enough money to get either of them , so the price isn't a big factor for me.

not to mention , that i hate large screens (dunno if the S3 is gonna be good for one hand operations?)

i am going to be using it for music , videos , and casual gaming (i hate heavy gaming on phones anyway.)

So , what do you guys think ?

Thanks in advance.

Lol idk which phone to buy, on one hand the nexus 4 from the google play store but on the the other hand the xperia tx for 350 - 400 bucks (price fluctuates almost every day lol but it maxs out at 400, about the most I'll pay for a phone) from mobicity from australia http://www.mobicity.com.au/sony-xperia-tx-lt29i.html.

I really prefer the tx over the nexus in design, camera, removable sd and battery and camera button. But I also love the nexus's dev community and performance and the slightly cheaper price and lte cause I'm Canadian. And updates don't really matter for me cause I like to flash roms anyway. Which should I choose?

Also has anyone used mobicity before is it safe and secure?

Which Tablet

Hello.

So i used to own a Samsung Galaxy S WIFI 5.0 until it broke and i got refunded, I miss it very much and I cannot find the same model so I want to replace it.

I can only afford these 2 tablets:

Msi Windpad Enjoy 7 Plus:

http://www.takealot.com/computers/laptops-pcs-and-tablets/msi-enjoy-7-plus-with-android-4,27127077

Proline AK888-15

Both dual core both Jelly bean...

BUT

I would like to know could it run games? As that is all I used my old tablet for:

Shadow Gun, Real Racing 2, Dead Trigger, Modern Combat 3, Ps1 so on

Do you think the Proline tablet would run it if it has the right hardware?

Any help would be amazing! :fingers-crossed:

ipad vs windows vs android tablet

Hi everyone,

I hardly post here, usually find what I need via search, but this time im stuck.

My 1st tablet was a tf101 loved it, moved on to nexus 7. 2 weeks ago my not so better half stood on it and smashed the screen. I need to replace it. Not too keen to buy another nexus 7, its getting on and I'd like a change.

Here's the dilemma, no questions straight away I knew I wanted a nexus 10, BUT its unavailable in my country and although I'm in Australia right now google play cancelled the order I made due to paying with a New Zealand credit card. What do I get?

Ipad 4? Never used iOS but scared I wont like the walled garden (love to flash and tinker)

Surface or other windows rt tab? Same prob as ipad but with added prob of lacking apps.

Other android tab? Really like the nexus devices, note 10.1 has too low res and tf700 I/O problems.

Really don't know what to do here, worst case I'll buy another n7 since they're cheap and wait till I can get something I'm happy with.

Thoughts please

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Lawl. You sound like the late Steve Jobs

And that dude who goes around doing WP challenges

Anyhow, unique is not synonymous with good. The definition is in short, different. WP is different and that is what cripples it. Metro UI is pathetic, the list of apps is poorly implemented, and once again, same problems in iOS v Android battle: can't set default apps, can't change keyboard, heck can't even change wallpaper much less a live wallpaper, no sideloading of apps (no I'm not referring to piracy), and little customization (less than iOS). To add to this, the status bar is absolutely horrendous, as it only shows the time on less you tap on it, in which it will show battery and cellular network for a brief time. It doesn't pull down either, which has been in Android since the beginning and ingenious (hence why Apple copied, but not as well as Android). What about updates? Worse than Android. All WP7 wouldn't get WP8, and the ROMs are limited to the latest official firmware (so no WP8 ROMs for WP7 phones). There are hardly any apps, and the good ones are at inflated prices ($3 for Ruzzle? At least there's a free version on iOS and Android, and the paid version is cheaper).

End rant here, but TL;DR?

WP sucks
