Need advice
I wanna know the BEST Android Phone in all aspects. If there is no logical choice for "getting it ALL in one big nice package" then I guess I wanna have these functions:
1. Jailbreak possibilities.
2. Take a call / Call someone.
3. SMS. / Messages.
4. Games, lots of them.
5. Battery.
6. Speakers 4 music play.
7. Internet, Wifi.
8. The Rest..
I use a iPhone 2G, and its getting a bit boring.. From USA, but using it in Sweden. Was thinking to buy iPhone 5, but since it never seems to show up, I could use an Android phone.
I don't know what the best phone is, and I'm not a pro on phones or anything, but I have a Google Nexus S and it's a pretty good phone. Works for me, maybe you can check it out and see if it's what you want? It might not be available where you are, though.
I work for TMO and all we do is android devices, no apple products. I love iphones, think they're awesome, but they're not the best thing out there. If you have money to blow and want the latest and greatest bang for your buck, get a Samsung Galaxy S II. It is a hell of a beast of a phone. I'd spout specs at you, but you can google them easily ifyou want. If you want something a little more inside a decent price range, get a Galaxy S (not 2, just the first galaxy S). It is a stunningly good phone still for $140 less. If you want a 3g device and don't care about 4g (not sure if you have 4g in your area, but when you hop on a wi-fi network the 4g devices will take off and smoke 3g, assuming you have a decent wi-fi network), then it doesn't really matter, get the phone you find the best deal on.
Apparently Europe has the Galaxy S2 HD.... that fucking phone has 1280x720 resolution. Thats the same resolution as my 3 year old laptop man... on a 4.3" screen.
android after updates just starts to fail on me. idk what it is but it lags now, crashes, and just stops working. plus it got a whole lot complicated somehow registering apps to 2 of my gmail accounts, and always telling me theres an update when there isnt...a whole host of problems. the 4s is a worthy upgrade from 2 if u ask me - 4 to 4s, not so much.

HTC Evo. It has 4G, but since there are not enough 4G towers throughout the US, it's kind of worthless at the moment. But the 3G is still good. Unlimited data plan is a must with it. Hands down a great phone.

I usually message people, Im not much for talking in one and I never use videocall or MMS. Wifi is awesome, I use that alot.
And yeah, Im gonna wait a while. The Samsung seems cool, gotta do more research.
Thanks for all comments!
Well you should wait until galaxy nexus is out in the market to see pricing and stuff like that
(the phone is uber awesome)
But galaxy s2 is also really good and it's going to get even better when they upgrade it with google android's latest oS Ice Cream Sandwich(which is already installed on Galaxy Nexus)
Price here is currently around 605-640€ currently (16GB model as far as i know), i suspect it will be cheaper in the rest of europe due to our insane taxes
You might look into the Samsung Galaxy Note. It'll have a 1.4 dual core processor, a HD Super Amoled screen, running Android 2.3.5, and it has a 5.3 inch screen. Yea, five point three inch screen.
It is supposed to launch on October 24th.
When all this car shit of mine taken care of, that's definitively the phone I am going to get. Best phone available.
Edit: And seeing as it's got a 1.4 ghz dual core, and the Nexus only has a 1.2 ghz dual core, I cannot see them not updating the Galaxy Note to 4.0 when 4.0 is released.
You can't use the CPU frequencies for much, especially not when ICS finally introduces a fully hardware acellerated UI, and not all CPU's are equal, even when the frequencies are.
Not sure what CPU the Note uses, but i wouldn't say it's clearly better than the Nexus Galaxy, and it also looks like it is too big, 4.65" is already pushing it, even though they managed to only make it slightly bigger than 4,3" displays due to the bezel.

Why in God's Name would you recommend the Evo 4G when he could get the Evo 3D?
Evo 3D >>>>>> Evo 4G. (I have the 3D ... I know).

That thing is so boss here in Korea
