Best android phone i can buy with 250 € - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the best phone i can buy with 250 euros ?

I saw that euronics sells the htc desire s at 269€, but only in some regions.
I think that it's a very good price for that phone.

Surely you can get a nexus s off Ebay?

what's the difference: XDA 2 and MDA 2 (t-mobile Germany)

hello guys,
simple question,
I can buy an MDA 2, which is cheaper than the XDA 2.
But i wanted to know if there are any differences, besides the design?
Is it locked to t-mobile? Could it be unlocked?
thanks for your help!
the hardware is the same of cause as they are both Himalaya which are oem'd from htc
about software difference then donno
about sim locks then http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/xda2unlock
thanks for your prompt reply.
So what do you suggest?
go for MDA, or XDA? and pay a 100 USD more...
donno non of them are for sale around here
since o2 and tmobile are not present on the mobile market
in this country
i got the qtek flavor myself which dont come with a phone subscription it's of cause not locked but since it's without a subscription it cost more
I would suggest that you buy the MDA ( if you can life with the design ) and upgrade it to what ever you like. ROMs are many around here...
I peronally like the customizition from O2, expecially the UserInterface and I don't what to miss it. The blue is also by far not so annoying than pink is ;-)
I have the MDA2
Just drive over the border (to Germany) buy the sim free mda2 from t-mobile which will set you back arround €750, and they have lots in stock.
Or even BETTER wait till after CIBIT and prices will come down quite a bit
i can have an MDA 2 for 560 €. i should get it?
well i suppose it depend on if it's simfree or if you want to use the mobil company because they often bill you a penelty if you just unlock the phone and use another sim and such

[Q] help for new galaxy s2

I am planing to buy samsung galaxy S2 4GLTE version. I already have non us variant which supports only 3G. But when I insert any local US sim card it uses only GPRS no 3G nor 4G data support. So I would like to buy a new fone. If any one could clear me before I go for the right one. I am interested to go for either Galaxy s2(T-mobile or ATT) or Note.
My Queries are :
Can I Buy any of above one's from amazon.... & buy prepaid sim card & use it as long as I am here ?
I dont want those annual contracts & stuff. As I am a frequent flyer I would like to have a prepaid one.
Can I unlock that fone & use it in the country I visit ?

To get T-Mobile 3G service, you must purchase a T-Mobile phone.
Also, offtopic for these forums, which are for the AT&T I777 which is almost identical to the I9100 especially in terms of band support. Just like the I9100, the 777 doesn't do AWS.
Yes I have planned to purchase a new fone But I have a query that can I buy it on amazon & use prepaid sim card?
Like for ex : I but note on amazon for $249 & buy t-mobile/ATT sim card for 10 -$15.
Can I use all 3g/4G/LTE services ? with recharging it monthly as i go?
Apart from that Can i unlock the note & use it in other countries ?
Most retailers only sell the phone with new or upgraded contracts. You might have to buy direct from AT&T at full retail price if you don't want a contract.
Note is around $620 on Amazon, not $250. If you're seeing a Note for $250, that is the price with a 2-year contract with AT&T for the inferior AT&T version of the device.
AT&T and international devices will not get 3G service on T-Mobile USA. (The one exception is the Skyrocket, and that requires flashing a different radio firmware.)
Basically, if you want a phone that gets 3G on T-Mobile, you need to buy a phone from T-Mobile or a Galaxy Nexus. If you want a phone that gets 3G elsewhere including AT&T - well if you have an I9100 that should work as-is.
If you're paying full off-contract price for a device, your best bet is the GSM Galaxy Nexus - being pentaband HSPA, it is the only device that will get 3G on AT&T, T-Mobile, and almost any other provider out of the box. There's no point to the Skyrocket if you aren't getting a contract subsidy.
okay Thanks for the reply. So i guess i have these options :
1. Use att sim my galaxy s2 which i dont want to.
2. Go for G nexus sounds good to me. (where shall i buy it from in LA/online)
Finally once i get nexus where do i buy a prepaid sim card ?

As far as prepaid SIMs - this is not the right forum to ask. If you're wanting to get 3G service with a T-Mobile SIM, you need to look elsewhere. These forums are specific only to the SGH-I777, which is the AT&T variant of the phone you already have.

[Q] Docomo SC-06D vs. International i9300

Hi!
This thread offers a great overview table: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756338
I really don't understand the specs well. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to these things.
However, to me it seems that the Docomo version offers the better deal compared to the international version.
I have to decide within today which version I am purchasing.
So, I'd like to get advice from others living in Japan with this device!
I live in the deepest countryside, so I won't be using LTE / 4G unless I'm traveling, but I guess it's nice to have it anyways.
Other than that, I'm also concerned about pricing!
The Docomo version seems more expensive to me:
71,400円 (docomo version) + 3150円 unlocking + 10.000円 cancellation of contract = 84550円
- 47,358円 (international version) = 37192円
That's almost 40.000円!
I know that Docomo is offering several discounts, but they're only having the campaign until TODAY!
So I need to decide quickly.
Apart from the price for the phone I'm also worried about the plan / monthly fees.
If I go with Docomo I think I have to stick with them. Can anybody let me know what you roughly pay per month with this device?
If I purchase the international version then I could use Softbank, Docomo or b-mobile.
B-Mobile looks cheap at first sight, but I have difficulties understanding their SIMs and plans.
Does anybody use b-mobile with a smartphone and can tell me more about it?
Thanks so much in advance!!

G2 mini pricing

Do you have any information about G2 Mini pricing or availability in Europe ? Lg didn't announce anything about it's price and i'm pretty curious.
Right now the bigger G2 sells for 400 euros here and it's my number 1 choice so far, so around 300 euros for the Mini should be right, i guess
I think that 300 euros is too much. It will be sth around 200-240 euros. Dont forget that oponent for g2m willl be moto g (quite similar specs, prop better screen). If g2m will cost 300 euros like u said then Moto G will be way better choice (and much cheaper) and in price of 300 euros u can find better phones.
I also find it too much, but look at S4 mini which is selling also for 300euros and with same specs. AT launch was even more.
release dates?
does anyone know when and where it will be released world wide? I called a few isp's from rsa and they don't know jack.:silly:
lg l90
In Germany you can currently preorder it for around 320€ in most online shops.
What i wonder about, is that you can already by the lg l90 for 220€, wich is the exactly same phone by all specs,
the only differences are the housing, the battery (wich has even a bigger capacity) and the name...
if the price of the g2 mini will stay, this is just ridiculous!
Pre order issues
I've read that some companies are over pricing in case they under price the device. so in case you preorder it at 199 but lg says its 250 type thing.
Still wanna know when is lg actually releasing this phone.

Got non-LTE version officially sold in Ukraine for ~$280 (3199,5 UAH). KitKat with ugly (as to me) Optimus UI. Waiting for CyanogenMod.

Contacted LG from my country, they could only confirm that we will receive the device in May, no date or price as yet.
I just bought an LG G2 Mini in Russia it was around 200GBP when converted from Russian Roubles. I am very pleased with it but disappointed it has no LED Notification.
Same here - notification led was a blessing in my Desire S. How's about photo quality? I think it's pretty poor for device of this class...
I bought it for 229 euros, which is a good price in Europe.
From an italian website, glistockisti...i don't know if it delivers abroad (i don't think so).
Other european websites are making a price like 250-300 euros.
I bought mine for 295€.
Compare it to MotoG isn't correct.
G2mini is between MotoG and MotoX.
I chose it for its battery life and i'm not disapointed.
How about performance ? I chose not to buy this G2 Mini and i got a Nexus 4 instead and i''m very happy with this choice.

I wanna get one for the missus. she has a Motorola Razr xt910 lagging very badly. The stand out feature on this phone is the Quadcore. All the alternatives in the category have dual core. Am i wrong ? At the moment cost is 300 eur. (Greece)
