I would recommend LG Optimus L9 since you said you require a good display.

Xperia L is the best option from Sony.

HTC has stopped producing good mid range phones longtime ago and as a result of their stupid strategy its going to sell itself to Lenovo very soon.

Watch videos. Read reviews. Visit stores.

Verdict: Depends on your preference. Updates might have fixed it to some extent

both use low resolution display (WVGA). Performance wise Xperia L is way ahead of Core or even Quattro. The processor in case of Core is Cortex A5 (dualcore) which is slow than Cortex A7 which again is slow than Cortex A9 and finally comes Cortex A15/Qualcomm's Krait which is powering Xperia L. Not going for benchmarks, Core has the slowest dualcore processor available in market whereas Xperia L has a top tier dualcore processor. Secondly, with better processor comes better GPU.

ANy chance LG F5 is coming to india ?

i think it is LTE only model so not much chance of it debuting here. instead we'll have L9 II sometime next year.

Already seen this a while ago. HTC has gone to same route as Nokia and Blackberry. foolish marketing strategy of launching extremely overpriced phones one after another and ultimately seeing themselves being sold to other firms. All three of them were once the pioneer of 3 Smartphone arenas(Android, Symbian and BB)
