This phone or X8? - Optimus One, P500, V General

they both have the same price and both are pretty similar. i am wondering which phone can run games better? and how does 256k colors impact picture quality? because x8 xperia has 16mil colors.

well, in terms of games, the X8 has a 1200 mAh battery while the LGOO has 1500 mAh's. thats going to give you some more battery time to play games. and as an owner of the LGOO, i can say that games look fine. even if the X8 has more colors, I dont think you'll see much of a difference if the games arent made to take advantage of the higher color range.
another thing is the X8 uses a skinned version of android while the LGOO has a pretty stock version of 2.2 with most of the original features. if you like time scape, then cool, but i personally dont like it at all.

What drew me to the OO as opposed to the X8 was the amount of RAM: 512MB on the OO vs. 168MB on the X8 and of course Android 2.2 versus 1.6 on the X8.
I've tested phones with higher color screens, but I haven't noticed any real-life difference due to the 256k color limit, neither during gameplay nor during movie/photo viewing.
In the end, they're both budget Android phones so (advanced) gaming simply isn't their forté, but I reckon the OO will do a better job under most circumstances.

thx for replies. just found that OO has some bug where cpu load goes up to 100% when you touch the screen, i wonder will it be fixed or the phone is made to work this way

The problem of CPU load when touch the screen happens with another devices to.
My brother have a Motorola Milestone and the same happens running Android 2.1.

choose LGOO
had the same dilemma last week
I went with optimus
because :
a.)FROYO vs 1.6 in x8 -(2.1 is the latest I heard from SE but still, check web between the difference of 2.1 and 2.2 it's HUGE.
b.)The built is much better for me, more solid, a bit heavier, but it's bec of the more powerful battery(believe me you'll need battery!!!!)

pocket legend works fine on optimus one

os: android 2.2 vs android 1.6
ram: 512mb vs 168mb
battery: 1500mah vs 1200mah
display: 3.2'' vs 3.0''
OO wins

you cant possibly see any difference between 16m color screen and 256k, theyre just nubers to raise the price
the human eye can recognise up to 70k colors as ive heard anyway... so both are above your capabilities ,unless ur some super-eye man

Used X8 for couple of weeks and then got Optimus One and Optimus One is much nicer to use. Its faster and Android 2.2 makes everything smoother to run

OO is better
Of course the OO is better in every range, but I think They're not the same price.
Here in Hungary the OO is almost two times expensive than the X8. It is because service providers haven't sold the OO yet

What about buy this phone form another country? eBay for ex? Or you have bad feel about warranty?

Sadly, it's total bull.
I've seen the (awesome) live background Artemia on better screens (with more colors) and it looks definitely better, less banding and less visible dithering (the colors flow into one another more naturally).
I think Artemia is a quite good way to show off why the OO's screen isn't really good.
Still, I'd vote for this phone. I love how it never runs out of memory (as opposed to the Samsung Galaxy). Plus, it's cheapish

Does the optimus one really have 512 megs of ram?
Why would those useless at LG only put 256 megs of ram into the LG Optimus T (the t-mobile version of the optimus one, identical, except I guess the ram). I have two LG Optimus T phones on the way from ebay (they work with Wind Mobile in Canada) and i'm that the Optimus one has more ram than it does.

T has 512 bro

OO ram is 512, 160 is internal memory only. Check it again!

Ah ya, gsmarena doesn't have the specs listed, and really no where seems to have the ram specs listed for the Optimus T, only the Optimus one.

Optimus Me P350

Hi. I'm thinking about buying P350, but when i was watching youtube video i saw that there's a problem similar to that with P500 touchscreen. It also lags when touching. P500 has almost the same hardware spec(mainly screen size, but that's little difference), so i'm wondering if fixing this would be avalible.

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_optimus_me_p350-3735.php. If it's this one , forget it . Totally not worth it bro.
Besides by summer phone prices should drop pretty handily cause of the new wave of super rocket propelled phones that will start shipping .
At best I recommend you at least try to buy P500 , it's head and shoulders better than P350 , at least as a transitionary phone until you can get your hands on bigger guns
Working in Lg and used as a test user in Optimus Me and i guess u tt u should try to buy p500. Im using it too and not lag on screen as u saw.
Just try to flash the lastest to fixed this lag by mil_os.

Less internal memory
240 x 320 pixels, 2.8 inches screen (that's QVGA!) spec... Have fun finding decent apps!
1250mAh battery would suck too.
No mention of CPU or GPU...
All the above = Hardly the same hardware spec..
Probably alright for the price but after trying a friends QVGA phone and seeing all the apps that don't show in the market, I would NEVER have an Android device with less than HVGA.

First i can find a lot of apps( because 98% of apps can adapt to any screen resolution) and second, why is CPU bad? It can get overclocked to 600Mhz with stock kernel and even to 800Mhz with custom kernel.The phone is lightning fast even at 600 not to mention 800.And the battery is not that bad either without overclock but even with overclock to 600 it lasts a day.As for tje internal memory well it is kinda low but i have a 16GB microSD card i can keep 25~30MB of internal memory free.Just move all apps to the SD card.I never regreted buying this phone since its rather cheap and has a lot to offer(esspeialy if you flash a custom 2.3.x rom which,by the way,improves battery life and speed overall).If you want to buy a decent cheap phone than you should buy this one.Its tottaly worth the money.

Without modding I admit it is.(except for “lot of apps“ part.Why dont you understand android apps are mostly NOT made for a specific screen resolution so ANY app that works on p500 will most likely work on p350 http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html )And for the internal memory part you can always fet a ROM that supports an ext1 ext2 and FAT sd card artitions.With those partitions you can use the FAT partition to extend the internal memory. But still if you want to buy this phone and mod it a little the only thing that p500 has better is screen.And to some that isnt important becouse of p350 has a very low price.

Looool it looks just like ZTE blade , but it has a few too many downsides . 256 ram , big resolution for qualcomm 7227 600 mhz :-s . And also it comes prepacked with 2.1 . And considering the fact it's practically a pretty no-name phone ( compared to O1 which sold about 2 million units in less than an year ) you can probabily guess that it doesn;'t have the same support by the community.
Being stuck on 2.1 is a very sad thing.
Cheers
Go for galaxy ace?
first off its got support with the cyanogen devs I men its listed on their first page so how can u say its not widely supported plus ram is unlockable to 512 mb..i have heard that zte blade or san francisco as it is called is very famous and has many roms.. further reading also showed that higher resolution makes the display gorgeous though it might get a bit slow.....as for samsung ace it doesn't even have a community ..when buying android phone s community is a must..ace will never get official gingerbread..the hardware is same as our o1 too nothing worth its price
Ps zte blade already has an official cm7 unstable port at cyanogen site
too large resolution for only a 600 mhz chip.
it will definitely put a strain on it just to process graphics. lower refresh rate and definitely lower fps.
and no official gingerbread update from zte is a big downside. and the battery is only 1250mah?
about galaxy ace, it doesn't have a good community support as optimus one, and i think it will be stuck on froyo cause it seems samsung is not going to upgrade it anymore.
i say stick to your optimus one first and just invest and save money on a better product that has a better support and that is known.
How is Xperia X10 running it???? SOny phones have such high resolutions
O1 rules . At first i was not happy because scrolling was not smooth i got frustrated n decided to sell this phone and get htc desire but after discovering this wonderful community and installing Megatron and mikos kernel for lag fix i am very happy with my phone. I would say that this phone sucks with the stock Rom. But once you install custom Rom you will feel that its speed has increased 2x. hardware of this phone is the best for this price. LG fuked up with the software.

Simple decision bro ...
If you use it mainly for chatting and reading etc - DELL XCD35
If you use it for playing games - O1
Bottom line is since they use the same chip but XCD35 has a higher resolution, the XCD35 would have to work that much harder to render the same image ... So once you get into big games, this will be a downside ...
However, if you use it ONLY for casual games (like paper toss and other timepass games) and use it for chatting and reading stuff, the higher res screen ( and much higher DPI) will make the text more pleasing to read ...

Best phone in lower price and it is getting 2.3 Gingerbread in Few Days
Well a bit good 3d gaming is always welcome..Looks to me like Optimus one is an all-rounder and is worth every penny...One question though if i use LCD density app from market will it increase my phone's resolution or will it just change the dpi or something..Can anybody tell if its the real thing and how it works ??? http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/change-android-screen-resolution-with-lcd-density/

doesn't lag on my mine @ stock speed. which rom?
BTW, heres my view:
things going against XCD35 = slow processor (can be OC'd), less ram (unlocking fails most of the time), bad battery life, no warranty (if getting from Orange).
things working for O1: 100-120Mhz OC is descent & doesn't affect battery life but increase in performance is noticeable, good battery life, cheap but comes with good, balanced specs (but wish it had a camera flash). & for those who don't mind to install custom roms, Gingerbread is cooked & ready to serve (ignore those flies please).

Dell xcd35/zte blade or LG optimus oneone

My friend is planning to buy a phone and both LG optimus one and dell xcd35 which is the same phone as that of the zte blade..I know hardware wise zte blade on paper is better,but would like to know the experts advise..the amount of good custom rom in the LG community expecially cyanogenmod is good..but I don't know the case of zte blade.how is the custom rom support for zte blade.and which one has better battery back up...
I think zte blade is officially supported by cyanogenmod.

1.xcd 35 screen 480X 800 lg 320X480
2.xcd ram lower than p500
3.huge support for lg p500 with gb update on its way and great custom rom flooding the thread while xcd 35 has less option at this point of time.
I woulld say go for xcd 35 and wait for updates and I am not sure on the ram part as many says that xcd has 512 ram .Just chk it out in store
Blade is excellent, I have one.
It's quick, CM support is great and it's cheap.
It has 512MB RAM.
They're both pretty similar design wise and specs. ZTE has official support for CM like what above people said and a bigger screen. I would go ZTE as well.
err..
this has been discussed too many times
both have the same cpu and gpu
so XCD's gpu would be forced to render at high resolution
which will not give good result..

True, but TBH it copes fine with games such as Fruit Ninja.
The other advantage is that you can play the Gameloft games such as Sandstorm at a decent level since the screen is HDPI - this also means more access to apps normally reserved for much higher end (and more expensive) phones.
The build quality is decent as well, battery life usually lasts me a day with fairly heavy use e.g. three E-Mail accounts with Push, a few minutes gaming, texts, browsing, news apps etc.

HTC EVO 3D vs. Samsung Galaxy S 2 (Video)

What do you think about this review? GSII won in all of the tests
http://pocketnow.com/android/htc-evo-3d-vs-samsung-galaxy-s-2-video
Personal preference is what it comes down to for every phone and person in the world. There is no such thing as the best phone, just the best phone for each person.
That said, who cares about this review? I like my EVO3D, period. Might another phone be slightly better in some areas, sure. Does it matter, no.

I'll admit that the processor in the sgs2 is better in benchmarks but man he sounded really bias.
What I love about all these Galaxy S II comparisons is the fact that the phone IS NOT YET AVAILABLE IN THE US!!! Carrier variants are known to have differences (HW & SW wise, especially in the US) so the small edge the test unit may have on Evo 3D can easily disappear once the REAL choice is available... just my $0.02

Is this due to synchronous vs asynchronous dual cores?
Does the "comparison" mention that the Samsungs build quality is the lowest of it's kind?
That the screens have these "weak spots" where it you press it too much they'll go black/dimmer?
They the charger port goes bad VERY quick and need to be replaced probably within the first 6 months.
That the speaker phone ALWAYS sounds like there's plastic film stuck in it?
I've had many Samsung phones, the only one I liked was the VERY first one I ever had back in 2002.
I'm no HTC nuthugger(because fk HTC for not releasing the unlocked bootloader) but HTC builds better phones. Simple.
Will have to revisit the test once the phone is actually available on the Sprint network, with the Sprint bloatware loaded on the Sammy. The GS2 is obviously a good phone, but this test isn't apples to apples.
Sammy sure knows how to make a gorgeous screen though
that superamoled + blows the superlcd on the evo3d away
the person who mentioned carriers will nerf **** too is correct
T-Mobile's Sensation has 7 something mb of ram, the evo's same hardware/phone almost but has 1 gb
Carriers lower the amount of ram to save money all the time, among other things, could result in a worse phone
I don't understand why Samsung insists on not making a good qHD screen tho with it....
Yes, the difference in benchmark scores is due to the differences between how the processors run. (synchronous vs. asynchronous)
on every day use, you cant see a difference between a really good single core vs dual core. Yes when you bench it, you see a difference. I mean we use our phones to use them everyday and bench them every day.
I really doubt you would see the difference between sgs2 and evo3d processor on everyday use.
This is like having a dual chip graphics card and running it on a 17inch monitor and not even use all the power. That is what android is right now, it is just not that demanding. I still highly doubt on every day use you will be able to see a difference between snapdragon dual core or samsung's new processor even with ICS.
I always though the benchmarks where due to the way the cores are set up/different. But I clocked my evo 3d to 1.8Ghz and ran quadrant on the performance governor. The highest I got was 2985. Now if I am correct, both cores should be maxed out due to the governor set by setcpu. If this is the case, the gs2 still beats the evo3d easily, even with the evo3d clocked to 1.8ghz.
I don't feel like this can be correct, but maybe it is? Maybe the exynos are that much better?
Or could it really be that sense 3.0 is a hog? I mean, with the hero, once it is on asop, you see a near 100% increase in scores.

Doubtful since benchmarks that utilize one or both cores still favor the sgs2

depends on the person. I personally think that super amoled screens are over saturated, I looked at the droid charge at verizon store and I really didn't like how the colors were on the icons. Yes its a beautiful screen but I myself prefer slcd better, just because it seems like the colors are more naturals on it.

sense probably has something to do with it. It is a resource hog, although it runs smooth, it does eat up a lot of resources.

I had the SGS2 for 3 weeks and the benchmarks do NOT reflect real world performance. The SGS2 did download web pages faster...by like maybe 3-4 seconds.
The build btw, feels way better than the current ones out...stronger plastic, matted back.
Even the gorilla glass website says our device does not have Gorilla Glass on it.
Love the review.

This phone has a dual core 1.2 ghz, just came from the Infuse on AT&T with a 1.2 ghz single core. it's fine most of the time, but has annoying lags when it's doing things (installing apps comes to mind, among some others)
The evo's really yet to ever stutter or lag like the Infuse did.

The build btw, feels way better than the current ones out...stronger plastic, matted back.

Do you have the evo3d now? How would you compare/rate both phones?

It really is preference. I am looking for camera quality and SGS2 is better there so I might be moving there. The speaker quality is really good on S2 also.
But some like the heavier/build quality of HTC better. Many don't like the super amoled Samsung screens. If you love Sense its Htc. (I use launcherPro). The dev community will be stronger undoubtedly for Evo...(although SG2 was rooted immediately.)
But...it is megalight, powerful and yep, sexy.
All that said...might not see it released for a while...some release issues were reported yesterday. Google around.

[Q] 1 GB ram is enough ? :D

Wish to know if this Amazing app supports Sony devices like Xperia SP ?
also is 1 GB ram enough to run it nicely or it will be laggy ? -regarding one touch themes or complicated themes demonstrated by tutorials-
Thanks In Advance
It will work fine i can tell.

I have Ace plus with 512 Ram and it is a little laggy in some themes, and very laggy in more complexed ones, I used custom ROMs that did a better job

can you recommend themer's theme that at least a bit more operable for everyday use, for my mini pro?
btw, what is your custom rom? does it have unusual theme? i like MIUI, but still didn't get the best ROM performance for my taste.
Worked fine on my old HTC Desire S with 768MB of RAM. I think it will work fine on your newer phone with 1GB of RAM.

* I didn't try Themer yet, but I am sure that it is Amazing
as my Ace plus resolution is : 320 x 480 pixels which is not supported by themer yet
but I applied some of MyColorScreen themes manually, some were great some were soo laggy
* I use Inspiration ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952839
It was a great improvement for me over the original one in Visual Style and Performance
Not sure if the deference is comparable to other devices' ROMs or not

Great
Hope so..
Thanks a lot
well I have a Gsmart Roma R2, which with 480*800 resolution just passes the bar of support. It has 1GB of RAM and Themer works solidly even with more complex themes. I have not seen lags in the system (unless some game like Temple Run 2 was still on in the background)

I don't think y need more than 1 G if you don't play games.

1gb ram is enough definitely, but humans want more even though its enough. :laugh:
hmmm
I wonder how this would be on a note 3 with the 3 GB of ram

Well, if you take into account how much RAM is actually reserved by the system (which varies phone to phone depending on add-on UIs, android versions and such), how much is taken by the apps and services running in the background (like sync account, weather, news, mail, facebook, twitter,... you get the drift). It might not be enough at all... Plus you have to take widgets into account. The more complex and the bigger amount of them running constantly takes up some memory, too.
I have noticed that Themer always takes about 40MB on my phone and that is not very light weight. I am comparing it to the last phone I had that was an entry level with amazing 256 MB of RAM so 40MB consumption would have been a killer for it. The launchers I used on it were maybe a bit less flexible when it came to theming (since I am a greedy guy and would not pay for the pro versions;o]]]) but they were still recommended by mycolorscreen for some of the builds and, if I remember correctly, they took somewhere between 11 and 17MB only.
That said, even if I have all connections (besides radio of course) turned off, I sometimes experience a slight lag with 1GB RAM. Though the phone is definitely not a high end wonder machine so I did not have huge expectations of it. The fact that it features vanilla android with few apps pre-installed and no UI modifications probably adds to the speed it runs at and that keeps me well satisfied.
So, gaming or no gaming, in the end it all comes down to the usage of the phone. If you do not play but you use many different apps on your phone (especialy if they have a background service using your internet connection), 1GB may still be not enough for you...
