Desire S vs Xperia Neo... What would you choose?

An SLCD screen does to compare to a LED backlit display. Check the reviews on various sites and you will know. This is the reason LED screens are costlier than LCD ones.
Well of course, Neo customization is more stock and if you prefer deep customization(sense) to closer to stock experience, go for DEsire.

Just came back from the store... No Desire S available... and the person told me, even if it comes in 1 week, it would cost above 25k...

Phone replacement had become very urgent... So came home with a Galaxy SL... Cost me 18.6k in Hyderabad.

Slightly disappointed by the cheapish lightweight plasticky body... But compromise is a part of life...

^^ The pricing sure will decrease... Not sure when, but major price drops should be coming up with the start of the release of dual core phones in India.

This 4" Galaxy SL feels quite powerful... the screen is premium... touch accuracy a lot better than my Optimus One... Interesting phone... but feels fragile because of its light weight...

It will cost for less than 25K for sure but will be around 23-24K.
It will be cheaper than Incredible S by 3k(approx)
I will be available in market in around a week or 10days for sure(so u don't have to wait for a month,as it is a confirm news).
I don't know much about flipkart but yes my friends use to buy novels from it but none has purchased a mobile from it.

Flipkart is a reliable site as of now and mobile div is a new one so they are in the process of making a rep....btw better that ebay....

p>S:21k is decent for Desire S...HTC tends to overprice though

I checked d review of HTC desire S,people are not happy with this phone,as this phone is giving problem when we use Wii-Fii or 3 G,as sensor is at the backside of phone...People are really disappointed with this phone...rite now i cann't take a risk..
Anyone here have a experience of using this phone ? .Pls provide ur useful opinion :)

No that is not a problem.....just overhyped to find a flaw in a newly launched device.....no decent site to specify in he review ...just comments here and there ...
Check out comments @gsmarena many have stated that is there a problem but most real users and owners have not faced anything serious till now.....also in video reviews no specific mention for these points....

The crux of the problem is that it connects w/o problems if Wifi signal strength is good but takes quite more time when signal strength is low.....

Only some prospective customers and few other who have not had a hands on at the device are panicking and believing the rumours.......

if so curious try hands on with the device and/or wait till the air clears which is what most prospective buyers are gonnna do.....as most would believe any crap one throws at them......
p>S:
Rumor:HTC is going bankrupt ....no use buying devices
Prospective buyer:really,**** should i buy it or not ^^panik^^^anxiety^:pullhair:^even more panick^^

If you are a power user: Desire S ..

1. Better support on XDA and possibly cyanogen roms
2. HTC's update history is not good but at least way better than what SE offers (flagship X10 stuck on 2.1 ???)

HTC's support history is probably the best or at least amongst the best, better than Moto/Sam.

Flipkart is extremely reliable, I have bought my BB from them and many books and games. You can trust them without thinking twice.
