Hi all,
Im looking for a new android device!
I come from an Htc Dream (completely modified, spl, radio, kernel, recovery, rom...) and i really like it.. bu its very slow and old..
the new phone i'd buy must have:
1.5ghz or more dual core cpu.
768 min. ram (1gb is better)
very, very... fast gpu..
big display with good resolution such as 4.3 or 4.7 with more than 800x480 or a hd display
8mp camera would be nice cos i never bring the camera with me..
so.. i know you will point me to buy the htc sensation xe.. and ok its a competitive phone..
but.. are there other phones with this specs??
samsung gs2 is getting old and for sure new device will come out, i heard that this one has also problem of hot temperature and honestly i never liked this..
I mustnt buy it right now (tomorrow.. ahah) but if you know if a device like this will come out soon, or a particular model is already on the market, please could u tell me?
thanks!
Looks like you are waiting for a Nexus Prime
Check some rumors about the specs here:
droid-life.com/2011/10/06/possible-nexus-prime-specs-sneak-out-this-afternoon-this-isnt-the-galaxy-nexus/
thanks hope more specs will come out soon !! seems perfect for me... lets wait! thanks man
Xiaomi M1! cheap as well.
Hi guys,,,
actually I want to get an android phone specially from samsung or htc.
I want it fastest one ever available in the market and has the most important specifications like the chipest and great in development
I found the galaxy note has all specifications that I need but it is very huge !!!
Could anyone advise me android phone?
The best android phone at the moment is the Samsung Galaxy S II but if you wait a week or 2 the Samsung Galaxy Nexus will probably be a better phone. The GN has a 4.65 inch HD SAMOLED screen, 1.2 GHZ dual core processor and zero shutter lag camera
Thanks man .....
I'm wandering why is GN gets 1.2 not more...and the camera 5MP ??
I will wait for more replies from awesome guys / developers in the world.

Get what works best for you. No matter the device you get, there will be an updated device in a few moths. That is just the way the hardware is moving right now.
Camera is Not about megapixels. It is all about the quality of lens and sensor.

HTC device's are powerfull pda, and it has a lot of hardware inside. Especially, if which htc coming with android, you will be lucky.. All of the world is in your hand!!!
SGSII or HTC sensation
but i would like to wait for RAZR
There are a lot of factors involved in the question you asked. What you need to ask yourself are these questions:
What carrier do you want to go with
What can you afford
What plan will you be choosing
What will you be doing with the Device
Do you need the latest and greatest
What's more more important speed or looks
What manufactuer do you want to go with
Run through these and I'm sure it will narrow it down very quickly
Hey guys I didn't see another thread like this after looking around for quite a while if there is please forgive me and shoot me a link
So here it is what would you like to see in a new EVO ? The origonal EVO to me was a game changer that was way ahead of its time a great phone that for the most part still keeps up with most phones on the market today. The EVO 3D was well a good step in the right direction to me but not a whole new world. What would make a new EVO even more amazing than most of the other smart phones out there I would love to see....
Physical hardware:
-Bigger screen 4.7"
-Thinner design (everyone else is doing it I mean even Motorola which I have always considered to be crap has an incredibly thin phone)
-Better battery life by means of a larger capacity battery+software development)
-Speakers ! not speaker we want the option to make speakerphone calls to loud not the option to move it closer to your ear !
-Do not get rid of the micro sd card like the new one series !
-Sprint LTE (a given)
-More ram everyone is moving toward bigger processors i mean quad core but still with 1gb of ram ?
-Better GPU, my old Samsung Galaxy Tab seams to do better than my evo in this regard.
Software:
-Fast camera(sense4.0 seams to improve)
-Landscape home screen (sense4.0)
-Look at what the devs are doing I am running Eternity and its soo much faster than stock and better in every way.
When it comes down to it I think the EVO 3d is a great phone and unlike most people I actually use the 3D functionality and wouldn't mind them keeping it in the next model.
The popularity and development of the EVO 3D in my opnion has stemmed from the OG EVO and could not be much better IMHO there are allot of great devs working on the EVO and I know that is what has kept me from switching to the Samsung S2. I hope the next round of HTC phones on sprint can live up to the competition in order to keep this great development community together !
So enough of my rambling what do you want in your next HTC from Sprint (EVO)!?!?!
EDIT: I really don't care if its $350 on contract I just want the best quality phone with all the features !
Print money of course but after that, option on Sense 4 to get the old pre-Sense 4 rosie back. I HATE the new Sense rosie! Might as well use launcher pro plus which hasn't been updated in almost a year.
I've been ripping on HTC lately but to be honest, if they announced another 3D Android phone, I'm all in.
What would I like to see? 3D with better cameras and ZSL. A full 720p 3D screen that doesn't cut the pixel count in half when in 3D.
After that it's all gravy. I just want another 3D phone with better features than the current EVO 3D.
Honestly though, if the specs 'leaked' for the Galaxy S III are real, (full 1080p screen) I think I'm jumping ship this year.
It'd be the first time in the better part of a decade that my *main* smartphone wasn't an HTC. :^\
Bring back the kickstand!
If they include 3D, then I'm in
Better battery, sd card slot, quad core, nice screen but not too big.
We're comin from a pure power source.
Lose the 3D, give me 4.7" and tegra 3

Moving to Q&A
Have you not seen the recently announced "HTC One X" at least that's what it will be called in the UK. Google it, its quad core, 720p screen etc, no 3d though....
For me, a screen size between 4.3 and 4.5...anything bigger just seems like overkill, but then again, I though 4.3 was before getting my first EVO! I agree, it's gotta be thin but have good battery life...maybe an HTC version of the RAZR Maxx? Sprint LTE, Qualcomm S4, sense 4.0 (with an UNLOCKED bootloader none of this HBOOT 1.5 crap HTC!!), kickstand, 720p screen, and that's about it! can't wait to buy it haha
Well just bought my girlfriend am evolution 3D off craigslist to use instrlead of her iPhone and after less than a day she is back to her iPhone. Why .... The speaker! Nothing else she likes everything else better about the evolution but spends to much time on speaker phone and it annoyed her.... You here that HTC! Make it loud... I have never really used an iPhones speakerphone before yeaterday or music and all I can say is wow that thing is loud and clear as can be.
I guess when it comes down to it for pure phone / camera functionality iPhone kills any android I've used. Wake up HTC!
Don't getvme wrong ill never have an iPhone

Make a One X as a pure Android device and call it the EVO Nexus.

Quad core. Thinner and lighter. Kickstand. Better camera. Higher screen resolution. Go back to a HDMI cord that is actually useable (stupid dongle). LTE of course.
Samsung has been tempting me lately. HTC better bring it.
Newest Quad Core with a speed of atleast 1.2Ghz with Turbboost to 1.5Ghz like on the Intel I series Chips. 1.5 to 2 Gb of Ram. 16 Gb Internal memory + 64 Gb SD card included (yeah right not gonna happen with Sprint). Retain the 4.3" 16:9 ratio screen (Like the feel of the 3D much better in hand than the OG 4G) but with 1080p. If they keep 3D (I dought they will) no half definition for 3D mode. A lag free 8 or 12mp (Dual 8mp if retaining 3D) Camera with much better low light sensitivity and FULL functionality like on the Amaze4G. Ofcourse retain SD slot. Retain Camera Button (Me Likey Likey). Maybe move wake button to right side of phone above volume rockers...maybe. Include HML adapter with phone (Cheapskates). Dual Stereo speakers with actual output and a kickstand...even if it kills space for 3D hardware. 2300mah Battery. If even it was 2mm thicker than what we have now it would be ok...it would be a beast. Dual Band WiMax 4G and 4G LTE Radios would be excellent unless they are going to cut contracts with ClearWire then it doesn't matter just 4GLTE.
Now to stuff this in an envelope and mail it to Sprint - Attn: Santa Clause Department / PipeDreamers
But I would buy one tomorrow if it came out...Love my HTC phones.
I will love it if the Battery lasted a few more hours specially when using wifi or the 3d camera also make the camera a lot more faster the EVO 3D take like 2 to 3 second to snap just one pic in 3D. it will be nice if they can improve the camera quality. Make the phone Quadcore plz make speaker louder or at least make them sound a lot better not like some cheap speakers. make it so that we can switch song long pressing the volumes key on the EVO 3D and try to ad a fell new Features or make some optional updates periodically
I need help deciding which phone to buy ... the following big screen phones are available here in Egypt and are within my budget and have good reviews
1. HTC Desire HD
2. Samsung Galaxy S Plus I9001
I found reviews favoring Desire HD over Galaxy S I9000 mainly because updates and Samsung GPS issues
nothing on it vs Galaxy S plus !
also I am worried that the Desire HD is gonna be a legacy device soon and I wont be getting support/updates easily.... on the other hand Galaxy S plus doesn't have many updated/custom roms... Desire HD has more RAM but Galaxy S plus has the better processor and better battery life.... I am torn here!
so which one to get... I am also open to suggestions for better 4+ inch phones within 350$ price range and btw.. I don't care much about the front facing camera or camera flash
Thanks in advance
would any moderator be kind and close/trash this topic.... It's irrelevant now
thanks
I'm getting tired of waiting for the G4A and all the others that seem will never come out so I have a basic question
Where can I get a 6589 phone with decent specs (4.5" or more, 720p, gorilla glass, 2000+ battery) with a good build quality and good factory and community support and that is actually available and ready to ship and not yet another undisclosed presale that never ends?
Thanks
PS: extra points for any alternatives like that LA-Q1 phone that is impossible to find at not-crazy prices

I was gonna do the same, but then I saw this:
http://youtu.be/T7UKuNms6ug?t=23m30s
Something strange happens...
Also - see how long does it take for AnTuTu tu finish with SD Card Write test.
STAR made some of my favorite (and cheapest) phones in the past, but their quality control seems to be really poor.
i love cheap, but?
I'm really keen to get either the umi x1s (prob will get this one) or the flying f600.
I'd love to take a gamble on the f600 as it's so cheap, but I cant find any reviews of videos on it at all. So I think I will settle with umi x1s.
Or should I wait a little longer for the galaxy s4 (real and clones) to push the price down???
Also "IcedFlame" are you referring to the CPU test where two core seem to be failing in that video as the "strange thing"?
I grabbed a iNew i2000 from geekbuying last week at $258.99. It's now on sale for $239.00 and in stock.
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Inew...-Android-4-1-OS-3G-GPS-Grey-White-314413.html
MTK6589, 5.7" IPS 720p, 1GB ram, 8GB nand
I like it so far. I've also posted a quick review at http://www.armtvtech.com/armtvtechforum/viewtopic.php?f=214&t=1877
There's also plenty of videos about it on youtube.
It's getting 4.2 pretty soon.
There is root and cwm available for it too.

Hard to believe
Anyone notice that the actual res on the phones are different to whats stated.
The f600 phone is supposed to be 960 x 540
but in the antutu screen shots its 854 x 480.
the phone is from AnteslifeDOTcom f600
That's why its better to stick with brands you know, there are lots of scammers in this industry because they know the average guy is not gonna bother shipping a phone all the way back to china for the warranty.
BTW check the butterfly and H9500 on PW: both show with 720p screens in both specs and antutu, are those numbers correct or the real specs are actually lower?
TBH my biggest problem with these phones is that good models are too expensive and if you can spend that much you could add a little more and get a Nexus.
Hi Guys,
Just thought I would add my 2 cents here.
Today I just received my Star S5 with the MTK6589 processor from Pandawil and so far I love it, build quality is better than expected, ROM had some items I uninstalled immediately which were Chinese apps.
Battery so far is brilliant (big battery 2500ma x 2) the screen is clear and bright and proper 1280 x 720 resolution.
Dual sims work perfectly here in Australia (only 1 runs 3g though)
Just run a AnTuTu test and got 13206.
Overall I am very impressed and bang for buck its great value!!

I'll put in my 2 cents also. Just recieved the phone this weekend.
The camera is real 8 MP at 4:3 ratio and 6 MP at 16:9 ratio. It intrapolates to 13 MP at 4:3 ratio. I think the quality of the pictures it takes is ok. It's nor great in house with little lighting, but it's better than a Jiayu G3. I haven't watched the pictures I took on my pc yet.
The video can shoot up to 1080 if you choose the highest quality.
I like the phone. It's a little bigger than a Jiayu G3 (the other chinese phone in our home) but it's no lightweight. I personally don't mind. It kind of makes it feel like it won't break anytime soon.
My GPS works after around 4-5 minutes outside so that's not a really great selling point. Works anyway so not a real problem.
I suspected the 13mp mode would be interpolated but no 16:9 8mp mode? That sucks, hope other models are better.
BTW did you guys hear about the G3S? I'm thinking Jiayu has some serious problems with the casing of the G4 as well and not just the ram.
And any news with the Play processor phones? They said there would be tons and I see nothing.
My favourites are ThL W8 and W8+ for now. Next week is is my decision to buy new phone. I will skip S5 and will not wait Jiayu G4. l also looked Goophone i9 but it is not useful to me with his gigantic 5,7" screen.

I have taken some pictures and made a small video recording at max setting (1080). You can find them at my google+. Look me up with the name Mattijs Kattouw. Sorry, haven't made 10 posts yet so I cannot give the external link.
Anyone got stores that have the Ktouch V8?
I know its not mtk6589 but its still a nice phone

Great. Thanks for showing us pics and video. Not bad at all. I thought that will be much worse, like ThL W8 (click on hyperlinks below):
