dual core android phone

R

hey guys I am planning to buy android phone.I need it for gaming,camera,music,video.MY budget is 25k.
I have shortlisted 4 phones
htc sensation,galaxy r,motorola atrix2,lg optimus 2x.Please help me get the right phone!!!!
Is htc one series worth the wait?

for now avoid all. these are all last generation mobiles. at 25k, you may get Galaxy S2 soon once S3 is released. Else HTC One S. HTC One series look good but if for some reason HTC price it bad, you'll surely have a lot of alternates.

HTC One X and V are already available for pre orders but there has been no news of One S as of now.So if you wait its totally worth it.
Or go for Sensation for 22-24k, the best option available right now

HTC One S would be around 30k..? right? :-?

(as per various sources across internet)

Personally I'll be choosing between Xperia P (if reviews are good after release + my budget stands

) or Xperia U

I think the One S should cost around 25-26k or may be lower than that..... 30k price tag will not justify it

dont go for sensation, it has faulty issues like death grip on wifi and bluetooth signals, issues related to responsiveness of touchscreen that appear only a week after purchase, dust easily accumulates under the screen...

galaxy r & optimus 2x are discontinued,
moto atrix 2 has a decent enough hardware to play any app/game out there but the real problem is lack of developer support ( bootloader is locked, hence no custom roms for it )
otherwise if you feel nice aroung the moto UI ( and they've also promised the ICS update ) then go for atrix 2

Your best bet however would be to wait for Xperia P as i doubt Htc one S will be in your budget. i think it'll be priced around 30k

or you can simply wait for galaxy s2's price to fall .. its a great phone tbh :mrgreen:

30k??!!

nopes.. I guess it should probably be around 23-26k MAX :twisted:

"around 30k" is a big margin bro !

(specially for people like us who want all the juice

)

Digit review mentions it has a weak antenna.

i have been researching alot these days about mid-range phones and thats why i thought mentioning those cons was necessary before anyone buys senssation and gets disappointed
anyways,
here are links to these issues ( review by gsmarena )

HTC Sensation suffers from death grip, iPhone 4 caught snickering - GSMArena.com news

HTC Sensation death grip testing revisited. Are there different versions of the Sensation? - GSMArena Blog

HTC Sensation suffering from touchscreen issue - GSMArena.com news

Dust underneath the screen - manufacturing defect - xda-developers

The death grip issues is not that much that will bother someone, it is very minor.

“Every phone experiences a slight variation in signal strength when the antenna is covered in its entirety by a palm and/or fingers”

And even many users have reported that they haven't experienced any death grip issue

One user in particular posted a photo of the back cover of his Sensation (which has three contacts) and says there are no death grip issues with it.

.

And the touchscreen issue was there in particular lot of phones, and now its not there, even the company changed almost every phone with that defect.

And now if discuss about the dust underneath the screen, then I would like to say only one thing, please grow up man, this issues is there in 99% of the phones out there, even the great iphones have that issue.
