HTC One V if you want Android.

HTC One V.

does the HTC ONE V have any overheating issues or poor battery life?

 

[thetechfreak]

It will last you a good day. Most Androids run out of juice by then.

how about Xperia Sola?

HTC One V/Sony Xperia U/Sony Xperia Sola

Now, tradeoffs are:

Xperia U has the best screen(280ppi, but 3.5") and the better cam compared to OneV. also has dual core processor, but lacks sd card slot, memory limited to 4GB user accessible(8GB total)

Xperia Sola has better screen than one V, but not as good as xperia U(265ppi,3.7"), but makes up with micro sd card slot, also dual core processor, other specs(including camera) are same as xperia U. Also has floating touch technology.

One V has nothing better than Xperia U/Sola, camera quality is not as good as sola/u but good none the less, screen is 3.7" but a tad lower res(250ppi), also has single core processor but the GPU adreno 205 could be better than xperia u/sola(have to check review). Sorry for the last part, Xperia U/Sola has Mali 400 which is better than adreno 205.


My choice is Xperia Sola, has everything, dual core processor, 3.7" screen with floating touch, and everything else that one can want from a android smartphone.

throw in 3k more and buy a Lumia 800

One can hardly tell the difference between 265 ppi and 280 ppi. Xperia Sola your best bet sub 20k.

 

[aroraanant]

If you can spend just few extra bucks then go for Sensation for 22k(or may be less if you have a coupon).
Or if you want a phone around 16-18k then the best options for you are:
One V
Neo V
Incredible S
Even Sola is a good option.

okay the choices are quite good. but is it worth buying the i phone 3gs now?(with the new ios 5)

 

[theserpent]

^^ I say No
htc one is better
Why no Iphone 3gs its an 2.5 year old phone

 

[thetechfreak]

No. If you would've asked same thing last year we could've recommended. But now no. It probably wont receive the next major iOS upgrade.

Lumia 800?dint you read ico's thread why not to buy a WIN 7 phone

 

[hsr]

[amruth kiran]

No. If you would've asked same thing last year we could've recommended. But now no. It probably wont receive the next major iOS upgrade.
