Android (106 Viewers)

I hate the Indian market for Android tablets. The new iPad sells at almost the same price as they do in the US, but a corresponding Android tablet is charged a premium. Not to mention, it releases a decade after the launch in the US. Sometimes makes me wanna jump over to the dark side.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

The iPad is a good device the only problem is that it is manufactured by a shit company. Same can be said about everything else they produce.

 

[icemaη]

My big gripe about the iPad is the 4:3 aspect ratio.

The latest CM10 nightly is the best ROM I've ever used

Which phone do you have?

 

[Tommy]

Defy.

 

[Juve Fanatico]

The S2 CM10 is still a preview. Nightly builds won't be out for a while from what I'm reading. :groan:

They recently announced that CM10 nightlies will be made available for various devices. You should check yours.

 

[Juve Fanatico]

Well, yeah. I've checked xda and they seem to be facing a couple of problems (memory and butter effect issues from what I understand) with some Samsung devices. They're probably waiting for Samsung to release a JB update.

Gonna stick with CM9 for now unless I get too bored with it.

 

[icemaη]

My HTC Desire is showing its age. I'll probably have to buy a new phone now.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

2 words: Galaxy Nexus.

 

[icemaη]

Or wait for the next Nexus

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Gotta wait till Dec at least for it. It'll be at least 36k+ and may not even release in India, just like all the other Nexus phones. Might as well get the GNex when it's cheap and available.

 

[icemaη]

How much did you pay for yours?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

25k on Ebay. I paid 27k for my Desire.

 

[Tommy]

Galaxy S3? Should I get it? Seems overpriced. What about One S, Razr and are there any good Sony Ericsson phones?

 

[icemaη]

I realized that the problem was with my network and not with my phone. So no new phone for me just yet.

And Tommy some of the sellers offer 1 year warranty for the Nexus via a third party warranty service.

That sounds good I'll check on that. Thanks brah.

Nexus is my first choice, the only thing holding me back is the lack of official hardware support here.

Was searching for phones a lot today and narrowed down the results to Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC One S, Motorola Razr, Sony Xperia P. Razr interests me very much but the problem is Motorola's software updates. S2 and One S also looking like very good phones. No clue about Xperia P though.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

The S3 and the 1S are overpriced. Dunno about the Razr, but I'd stay away from both Moto as well as Sony. Just get the GNex. It's a killer phone for 25k.

Yes I want it, I've mailed the vendor in ebay asking about the details of the warranty he's offering. What about the one you got? Was it from mobileaccesories?

Nah, I got it from a local dealer. I got a 3 month warranty, but I don't care much about it.
