[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] cktlcmd:
I plan on purchasing a brand new 7501. I know a new model came out 7510. I already read the differences between the two and currently leaning towards the 7501, because it is cheaper. I don't see the point of paying 500 dollars more just for added memory and a new OS.

As of now, I can only find Amazon.com selling brand new 7501 for 850 dollars.

Now for my questions:

I know it's a year old, isn't too much to pay 850 for it? If any of you guys know a cheaper store, don't hesitate. Let me know.

I know it comes with WM5 OS, does it have a WM6 official OS?

I read up that radio 1.57.00 is the best, which ROM version is the best?

What is the highest capacity micro SD card does it support?

I have not tried ebay yet, to be honest, I am hesitant to buy expensive stuff off ebay.

Any input is appreciated.

hi there! i see your uni has reached its shelf life... same as mine, I think Im ready to retire it. Im also thinking of getting the athena (dopodu1000) and you're right, the 7510 isnt worth the extra price.

Looking forward to the other athena owners to give inputs to you... as it will help me as well. I suppose the only uni replacement is the Athena hmm?

Good luck
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Confucious:
I've had my Athena for ages now and I love the size of the screen and it's power, it's a great device - especially with AP4 ROM, but coming from the Uni you will be disappointed with the keyboard - the one on the uni is great.

Someone here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=391485 is advertising one already pimped up if you're interested - caveat emptor and all that.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mikealder:
The 7501 is a great unit for what I got it for which is to use it for mobile internet access, the large screen is clear and easy to read. The keyboard is ....well to cut it short crap, I tend to get the Caps Lock mode for no reason and it is annoying when you find you have typed a couple of lines without noticing!

I use an external keyboard these days, but leave the inbuilt one attached to offer some additional protection while the device is in the case, I purchased a Piel Frama case in green for my unit as I didn't like the case it was supplied with. Sme users have found this aftermarket case a poor fit, mine seems very well made and I am happy with it.

Overall the device is decent, although heavy internet usage using the 3G connection speed which is fast in use hammers the battery, after a couple of hours use you will be looking for somewhere to plug in a charger.

I used the Uni for quite a while and the Athena seemed to be the next logical step, but it is a large device and you should really try and find one in a shop before purchase to see if you like the size and weight of the unit. It will fit in a pocket, but you need large pockets, the only other accessory I purchased was the 4 in 1 cable for the unit to add the capability of USB connectivity and composite video output - Mike
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] cktlcmd:
not to mention the loss of buttons... :C ... actually, I was really holding back for 4 months now. I wanted to know more about its successor before deciding myself, but I can't convince myself to shell out 500 dollars more just for the extra 8 GB and a slightly improved keyboard layout. Now if they improved the processor speed to 700, then maybe they might hook me up for the 7510.

The size of the screen and power as you mentioned are the best things I like about it too.

Is the AP4 an offial OS? Is it WM5 or WM6?

The size does not bother me, coming from an O2 Exec with extended battery, the weight of the Athena might be lighter in comparison.

I plan to use an external BT keyboard and BT mouse, which brand are you using?

I will probably purchase the highest micro SD available too, do you know if it supports SDHC micro SD cards?

I plan to buy a BT headset too. I read the LG HBM-500 with OLED Display and Vibra works well with it.

I might invest on the HTC 4 in one dongle for presentation purposes too.

I just read the differences between 7500, 7501, 7510 : http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=474

Does this mean the 7501 has no second camera even though it has WM6? Thus no video conferencing capability?

===
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Confucious:
AP is the Athena Project, AP 4.0 is the latest cooked ROM based on the 7510 ROM and is WM6.1 - not official but you'll be waiting a long tome for WM6.1 to be released on the 7500!

The 7501 has no camera as it was intended for the US market where there is no video calling so the front camera was dropped to save costs or so I believe.

The Athena is about the same weight as an O2 Exec with extended battery (subjectively - I just held one in each hand and they feel the same) but the Athena is quite a bit bigger - hence the gorgeous 5" screen :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rcf2:
got mine 7501 after almost a year looking, searching, waiting for the new one. the loss of hardware acess to functions was the main point to stay with the 7501 instead of the new one. the additional memory and improved keyboard (how much?, it will keep being an emergency keyboard!). it's big but very handy due to have everything big on screen, easy to track a message, to hit the right place on the screen, just very handy. I'm using on the original leather cover without the magnetic keyboard to save some volume. for small text input the large letters the softkeyboard pull out on the big screen is reasonable enough. for serious work a cheap and thin USB keyboard connected by the 4x1 cable is perfect. there are no other machine like this to fit in between a cell and a laptop. try one and you will find out. i had several others before, last one the Kaiser but the advantage is really a heavy contender for anyone interested in having a powerhorse at pocket.

I know i'll get flamed on this but

I've done extensive research and reading on x750x series and im sold, im sold to the point i bought one and it comes in tomorrow, its x7501 already unlocked. i've scoured this website, i've read up on all that i can, i know all the procedures all i now need to know is what order do i do them in, the radio 1.57 first then the unlocker? is that right, and do i need to use the athenawrapper at all?

SPIGEN seems like a pretty fat piece of a rubber.

---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------

Hard to tell. I think Spigen may be little better. Nillkin is thinner and cheaper. I use Nillkin for some time on many phones. If some of them got hard drop, then Nillkin case can break but not the phone - it make sense. So the case took the impact. Phone was never harmed.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Accessories] zorzgeo:
Matter of a taste. I don't like "truck rubber" on my phone.

Maybe Nillkin Clear bumer are the best choice for someone who want to make phone backward stay transparent.

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Accessories] arvind7955:
Sorry I thought you are from India.

In India, Spigen has not launched any case yet.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Accessories] BringbackWP:
I have the Ringke, great case, but the back cover of the black A50 does not look so hot with the transparent back of the case. I bet it's fine with the other colors. It looks great otherwise, fits nicely and the phone seems well protected. I had slim TPU before (Mumbi) which was okay, nothing special, but I the Ringk feels much more solid, I have no worries the phone would survive a drop.

All the Spigen cases for the A50 are gone from the website, which is pretty strange because like HTCDevil posted, the Liquid Crystal (which wasn't even on the website) is still available from Amazon in Europe, but not the rugged or slim armors (that were on the website before).

I think the A50 is a killer phone and they will sell a ton of them, which might lead to more cases in the future. I'm very happy with the Ringke at the moment, though.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Accessories] arvind7955:
Which type of screenGuard do you have on your phone? Is edge to edge guard compatible with ringke case?

Anyone came across any nice ones now it's been out a while? Currently have one of the Mofi cases with the fabric back on it, had the same case on my Redmi Note 5 and loved it but the A50 version is annoying me a bit as the lips are quite a bit higher on this one and with the bezels being so small they get in the way when trying to do things like move icons to different windows or swipe in from the sides in apps.

I don't really care about protection as only really use cases to make the phones feel better in the hand.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Accessories] arvind7955:
I finally bought Ringke Fusion X for A50. Perfect fit. Very good grip. Feels premium. Tactile buttons. Back is a bit of a fingerprint magnet though but it is not a deal breaker. As of now, this is the best cover.

I have 2 case, first is ringke fusion x, second is spigen rugged armor. For ringke I have no worries if it fall from my hand, the case is so sturdy, but the phone become more bulkier, and the inside of the case is very easy to leave scratch mark, and the outside case is finger print magnet. For spigen, I'll worried if the phone fall from my hand because spigen is more thin compare to ringke, but it comfortable to hold.

So far I've tried restarting the device, clearing app cache, reinstalling the apps, disabling battery optimization and finally wiping the cache partition from recovery. The only thing that worked was wiping the cache partition, but the problem returned after a day or so. Interestingly enough, the problem does not appear when using Messenger Lite.

While everyone is awaiting the opportunity to customise their phones to their heart's content with custom ROMs, while we are still on One UI, I would suggest starting off with 'Good Lock' which can be installed from the Galaxy Store.

While intended for the S series of devices, it works fine for the most part with A50. It can be used to customise the lock screen, quick panel, task manager, clock face, multiwindow, navigation bar and add automation. Only the custom clock faces don't seem to work from my short period of playing around with it.
