Re: Mobile Buying Guide

Hey guys !!! I just ordered an Xperia M from flipkart(it's on pre order right now).
I was going through spec sheet of HUAWEI ASCEND P1 and it looked WoW.
I am having second thoughts now.

What do you think guyz? Should I cancel my order and buy a P1 instead (which is going to get a JB update soon), or should go with the alread ordered Xperia M. Please guys help me out.

till now no complain from those who have bought Huawei mobiles earlier (X5/X5 Pro or Y300).

P770 = better battery backup. weak GPU.
P1 = better display and moderately fast chipset. but no sign of any update. also mobile is old.
Xperia M = best hardware but poor display.

decide accordingly.

About Xperia M, the way this guy shows it off, I think it's just awesome for the price we're paying.

his budget is barely 6k. and also A500S doesn't have a big screen with high resolution so should be just fine.

Which among SGX 531(Iris 405),Mali-400MP(A500S), SGX 544(Q700) and Adreno 305(L520) is more powerful and in which order ?

A500S doesn't have 400MP, rather its a single core but performance wise, it is in line with 544 & Adreno 305. but Qualcomm S4 Plus / 400-series will still thrash any Mediatek stuff due to crappy processor (Cortex A7) but this helps in keeping the mobile last longer compared to Krait based mobiles or Cortex A9 under Android OS. nowadays all these GPU have overclocked version so, yes my GPU chart is kind of useless but in the 1Ghz version, the GPU performance should be same.

Will an 8 GB smartphone have enough storage space?
Click to expand...

Simple answer, No.

Just because Google wants you to use its streaming services(and your ISP loves it too) it doesn't make the internet any cheaper. Many people still prefer a memory card slot.

I have a doubt regarding storage though.

Is there a problem of fragmentation like earlier ? Like with my LG O2X I slapped an 8 GB card inside to move all apps to SD as I was running out of space. I moved those apps which I didn't need to have a widget for and then I found out that my phone got snappier than before. The boot time reduced from around 30 seconds to 5 seconds :lol:

So is there a problem like slowing down if one parks everything on the same internal 8 GB memory partition ? :Fingerx:

When u move apps to SD card, it goes to ur internal SD not external sd. Correct me of I'm wrong.
