Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() With most phones now using gorilla glass, does it make sense to use a screen guard ? I just got one for my Atrix 2 off flipkart and it turned out to be the matte finish one. It keeps away the fingerprints and stuff but kinda ruins the whole sharpness of the display. Anybody using their gorilla glass phone without any screen guards ? Does the screen remain scratch free with regular daily usage..? |

A good bumper matters. scratches will be rare. Drops are daily. And one day it can shatter. Just like that. | |

| ![]() Guys, need a suggestion. Planning to buy an Android phone for my wifey. I have a Desire with GB and extremely satisfied with overall build quality, software etc. Absolutely no issues what so ever. Have been using it for close to 2yrs now. Now, for the new phone I am confused between the One V (costs arnd 18.5 on Flipkart) and Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250 (imported/unlocked, sealed piece available on ebay India for 28.5k). Nexus I9250 is a gorgeous phone with undoubtedly better specs than the One V. Only thing is it comes with Samsung International warranty which is not applicable in India and of course 10k more than One V. I am so confused between the two phones that I just can't decide. Please advise. I am not interested in the SGS2 (the inferior I9100G) or the Note (too big to carry on a day to day basis) and the Sony Ericsson/Motorola. |

| ![]() @flyingkolors; A lot depends on what she wants her phone for. I have an Incredible2 but for my wife I bought a Wildfire S and could even have gone lower. I did not do so due to Gorilla Glass as the phone kept in a purse is more likely to pick up scratches. Her universe is limited to Calls and sms. |

My use is limited to music, calls, sms and snaps. Is the Beats audio better than the Sony Walkman series? I prefer the Walkman series over even the iPod, while listening through ear-phones. | |

| ![]() Beats audio can be patched onto a lot of firmwares. Its not a decider. |

I have a W705 with clear bass, which I personally rate above iPod. Is the Beats better than that? Will I be able to satisfy my music ear if I go for the lower spec Wildfire S? | |

Where did you get it at that price? Seems like a sweet deal to me, although I'm inclined to go for the white but that seems really expensive. Also there have been reports of problems with the latest updates on 'yakju' from Google - are they really falling behind here? Quote:
