In specs the ace is better. In reality iphone is smother, maybe not faster but smother. The wifi on the iphone is shockingly slow. But what you you really need to consider is do you want open source or not. You can jailbreak an iphone but its not great, you'll never get the same as android. Iphone is for showing off, ace is for funtion. I have both and use my ace. Every now and then i boot the iphone for games, but thats getting less and less.

The 3gs has ARM V7 which makes it faster really.
But in terms of operating system android is for the adventurous.
My girlfriend has the 3GS and is always complaining about the lack of functions compared to my Ace.
Since she had a HTC Magic before, she knows of what Android is capable and is always saying that iOS runs smooth, but is for idiots.
Tap-a-talked from my Galaxy Ace
ace wins hands down......iphone 3 has no chance heres proof http://www.compare-cellphones.org/Samsung-Galaxy-Ace-vs-Apple-iPhone-3GS..
and as for iphone 4s then if you have an updated ace like 2.3.4 or 2.3.7 then the ace also easily beats the iphone 4s(ps my friend had a 4s but after i updated my ace he was so humiliated he went and bough a galaxy s2 just to compete with me lol)
...and the winner is.. tanrararan..

it is informative for us
if we are debate on it
i was about to say the same thing how has this turned from a iphone v ace into a where and how to fix your ace???
Hmm, yes, the options you get with this open os are great! But,someone said it already,the iPhone is for dummies, anyone can get it and use it without lots of action.
The Ace came with stock Rom and yes, it was useable but not really rocking. You have to read and learn till you get what most of us here have now ... a rockin Ace
But that's not Samsung's work,it's the work of the great Developers on this OS.

that's good news...it means that samsung is considering ACE a strong card...that also means that is doing well sales wise... that means that as long as ACE is a good player in mobile business then developers will continue messing with the phone... that means official cyanogen and maybe one day ICS on our ACE!!!!
in the UK the ace is quite popular and they have sold quite a bit especially on three. Its Samsungs highest selling mid range device

I've had mine since Sept. I cannot understand why they are so popular. Low ram, low Res screen, low onboard memory. It will struggle badly for firmware updates and 95% won't get official CM9 or ICS. I bought a ZTE Crescent today. Much cheaper at £99 and already find it much better. ICS being worked on and phone has only been out here two weeks.

To be honest i love my Ace, with stock ROM it can be a bit boring but that's why u gotta love Android the possibilities are endless. I wont compare my device to any other and when i buy my Nexus, the ACE will still be my everyday phone, mainly for its size.
say Galaxy Y in pink, I want my SGA in red.
Btw, check Galaxy Ace Hugo

Have you seen the screen of Wildfire S? It feels like ants having a picnic, you can't see anything clearly.
And Sense is 100x bloatware, it is not in any way faster than SGA, our stock bloaty firmware is much lighter than HTC Sense
And not to mention the battery on that phone is much lower than SGA

hey guys,
i'm currently doing some research for the 14 y/o brother of a friend, whose parents have just allowed him to get a smart phone.
i only ever bought nexus devices and would recommend him the nexus s, but unfortunately his limit is ~180 euro and the nexus s is ~270 euro here in germany. thus i need some advice.
he can't decide between the galaxy ace and the wildfire s. which one would you pick? i'm looking for things like easily unlockable bootloader, stock android and cyanogenmod support. but those things seem to only be found in older, cheaper devices.
what would you say has the best bang of the buck and is future proof and could possibly get cyanogenmod support?
thanks,
x
I would go for the galaxy ace because it has more development.
Sent from my HTC_A510c using xda premium
yup, that's my observation so far. there's even an unofficial cm7 port for it.
until i can come up w/ an official supported device in the price class, i'm gonna tell him to go for the ace, or if possible pay 100 bucks more for the nexus s.
Yeh galaxy ace if you want to root it, wildfire s has not been cracked open yet so has very little support

However i found only one issue where you will need to remove the battery to get it back to work. When you enable the wifi and leave the phone idle for a long time, the screen goes blank and none of the button seems to work. You will have to pull the battery to fix it.
Lol looks like someone prefers form over function.

Galaxy Ace for sure. It has more support, plus, he's 14, I'm sure he and his friends will care about the looks a lot. Teenagers are very judgmental really.
Hey guys, there's a sad news and a good news. For the first; bad news is that my SGA got stolen in an Car Fair (named Auto-Expo), so I was there standing between huge crowd and someone pickpocketed my phone while I was not paying attention to it.
After 3 days, the money I collected for Galaxy S Plus, thinking that I'd sell Ace and get some money from it so in totality I'd get S Plus. So I invested the money I collected on Motorola Defy, which has very active forums on xda, plus has very active development and most of all official MIUI and Cynogenmod and I am VERY happy with this phone.
So this is end of my legacy, bye guys have fun and I think one day Ace would get stable and fully working ICS, and it could be overclocked to 1200 Mhz easily.

I can use your help, since I am very confused with rooting, flashing and finding particullar SBF for it to run MIUI. Can you PM me the whole procedure? By the way I have red lens Defy with 2.2.2 Asiatic firmware.
Red lense is better from what I understand. You need superoneclick to root.
Once rooted download the app from this thread(2nd init installer)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032212
And run it. It crashed first time for me but worked fine second time. After that download the miui or what ever you want to flash And put on memory card. After that. . . .
shut down.
Power up.
Press down on volume rocker when blue led flashes
Recovery menu will load. On this touch screen in bottom right corner to show menu.
Choose recovery.
Custom recovery.
Cwm will load.
Sure you know the drill after that.

uhm, yeah, Samsung is open to external development, and sent 5 galaxy S phones to Cyanogen to make the mods for the phone, it is just their focus is their high-end products but I dont have anything to say about their support on boght phones.
Who dafuq is president of samsung? Why can't he be more open minded sheesh. And anyway, I think coolya did not want to do it since he said it would really be a pain porting it especially camera, like maclaw's team right now
If I remember correctly, then it was Samsung who sent new Galaxy S models to the developers of CM in order to speed up the process of releasing CM to it. And it was Samsung who hired the head developer of CM. Plus when you compare it to HTC for example, then modding and flashing custom ROMs on a Sammy is much much easier.

I've rooted lots of different phones and i've got say that samsungs are the easiest and ODIN is a very nice tool in case something goes wrong. The worst phones for rooting seem to be huawei's. I spent 5 hours on trying to root a u8800 and failed (2.2 was easy but 2.3.5 latest was impossible to me, tried all the root tools and even manually but zergrush would not apply). Rooting a samsung takes what... 5 minutes if you're lazy (gingerbread). Even motorola xoom takes 10 minutes from stock HC to fully functional custom ICS.

Off-topic: If it was so easy for you, then you might as well point me to a decent rooting guide for the SGA S5830, because I've tried a couple of rooting guides and none of them worked for me.

S2 is old yet much mor superior for me than others. Note may have higher clock and better resolution but it's just too bulky. The HTC One X didn't put much of a good fight either. It's stuck with almost the same level in my eyes as the GNexus since they have no SDCard support which is really a must for me. As for the Iphone4s it's good and all but it is apple and I despise apple cause theyre closed source and everything needs to be paid and it's really expensive. So yeah SII is good.
yeah about the OP, I have the same question (or at least I think so) Im planning to buy an SII here on the US directly from sammy so its unlocked, I'm wondering if I can put my sim card for the philippines. IMO It will work since my sister's phone bought from the phils worked with a telus sim card. I dont know the case for SII though

I'd want to take it everywhere with me, and yet would feel very uncomfortable about it being in my pockets. I'd have to always think about having a jacket or something to put it in, and then constantly worry about it falling out or getting crushed. I like to at least have the illusion that I am 'free' of my phone....sometimes.
