Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 P3100 | Tablet | Flipkart.com It comes with Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box, is a newer model and has call facility too. And its cheaper. Tab 730, as told to me, is discontinued. If that's true, why do you want to buy it? Whereas Tab 2 P3100 was launched just some months back. | |

| ![]() Guys, Back for some help / guidance. 2 weeks ago we bought Lumia 710 for wifey after selling her BB Bold 3. It seems the Lumia has way more limitations than we knew of; eg. Multi tasking; if while communication on skype you come to home screen to check your email, skype logs out. And Skype n Emails are very important for my wife's office work. Hence we thinking of returning the Lumia and getting her a Droid. The phones that we shortlisted after a lot of debating etc are Samsung Galaxy S Advance; Motorola Atrix 2 & Samsung Galaxy S2. 1. S advance (₹19500) is new and only 1 friend of ours uses it and he recently got it so not much 1st hand experience / feedback. 2. Motorola Atrix 2 (₹21499): a Nice well speced phone but sadly recently wifey had a very disappointing experience with a Motorola Service center for her brother's brand new Defy Mini and hence she is not sure about getting a Motorola. P.S. I am myself a extremely satisfied Motorola Defy + user. 3. Samsung Galaxy S2 (₹27900) : tried n tested. a few of our friends have it and she tested all her workings on it and did the job well and also S2 already has ICS update and rumor has it that it may also get JB by 2012 end. Where as on the other end no informaiton on S Advance getting ICS / JB. The major differences that we noticed between S Advance & S2 are S advance vs S2 1. Screen size 4.0" vs 4.3" 2. Camera 5MP vs 8MP 3. 1Ghz DC vs 1.2GhzDC 4. ICS vs GB These are the 4 main differences that i came across and except the last one we are not really bothered about the above 3 considering her use age. P.S. : It has taken me 4-5 days to narrow down to these 3 after reviewing / suggesting practically every phone from ACE+ to Motorola Razr. TOUGH JOB ![]() Regards, Last edited by h@r$h@l : 16th August 2012 at 11:19. |

One disadvantage with the Tab2 is that, even though it has call facility, you cant really hold the phone and talk, owing to it's size. So a bluetooth headset or a wired one is a must. Last edited by raj_5004 : 16th August 2012 at 11:54. | |||

| ![]() Installed CM9 (stable) in my SGS2. Cant say if I am experiencing something radically different over the stock firmware. Anyways below are the limitations I am facing: a) Cant assign ringtones to Groups (Can anyone help me with this?) b) Auto rotate option needs to specified in 3 to 4 different places to get it working! c) Battery usage issues. Feel that its draining too quickly. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Phone upgrade woes continue... ![]() Everyone recommends S3 and very few recommends One X. Nevertheless, I am already inclined towards the One X. S3 has Pentile sub-pixel layout for their AMOLED screen - which is a deal breaker by itself for me. Have seen pentile layout AMOLED screens and it bothers me a lot when I look closely at them. To some people, it may not be an issue at all, but many doesn't seem to appreciate that at all. Bottom-line: S3's display may be Super-AMOLED, but One X's display is Super-AWESOME! ![]() Read in one forum: Quote:
Where does One X sell for the least price? Prices haven't dropped much in popular online places and in the shops. Any chance of getting one for sub 34K? Last edited by clevermax : 16th August 2012 at 14:53. | |

But yesterday I received my Tab2 (7") and the first thing I tried was to hold it with one hand on my ear like a phone. And was pleasantly surprised that I can actually hold it like a phone. It does not feel that big. | |

Will just add this though - solidly built phones backed by top-of-the-line tech and providing more feature per dollar seems to be the driving thought, rather than marketing and hype driven mantra (read: Samsung). | ||||||||

I ruled out S3 as well as Razr maxx because of their stupid Pentile layout of display pixels. One X is by far the best one to buy as far as my research goes. With this price, I don't see any point in spending 30K for razr maxx, I'd rather put 3.4K more get the OneX! Last edited by clevermax : 16th August 2012 at 23:56. | |
