[Q] Motorola or Samsung? Which android phone?

Hey there!
Which phone would you recommend to a person which wants an android phone for gaming(minecraft, gta III, asphalt), music and internet(youtube, internet radio, websites, etc.). Better the battery, better the phone. I'm probably not gonna change roms and i'm okey with locked bootloader, but I'll root the device and I would like to overclock it to get the max performace !
I've got 4 phones on my list as they are cheap.
I prefer defy's because they more resistance I think(you don't want to know what happend to my last phone )
- Motorola Defy (~180€)
- Motorola Defy+ (~200€)
- Samsung S i9000 (~200€)
- Samsung S+ i9001 (~190€)
If you have any other phone that is good, write it. My previous phone was HTC Touch Pro 2 with Android 2.2 if it would help anyone
Thanks for help

I'll go with the Samsung S i9000. It's a nice one...

What about the Defy and S+(I heard S+ was worser for gaming then S)? Do any of you had any experience with them before?

As much as I love samsung, I hate to say that the only viable solution is to get the Xperia Neo L because it is the only one that run ice cream sandwich out of the box. Ice cream sandwich is noticeably faster than gingerbread. Galaxy W has poor support from xda as not many people are owning this phone and galaxy ace 2 is relatively new and so there are no stable ics roms out there.

Sony xperia Neo L hands down

i own an xperia neo l and i have to say its pretty awesome with ics

id actually worry about the ram in those devices- make sure u get a phone with a gig of ram , cause 512 is too laggy.

ACE 2, big ram. And will got ICS update too..

i ve wonder but u should buy ace 2 i guess. ram is a really big factor. in wonder u can use max 190 mb ram.

I have an ACE2 and quite satisfied with this
Do you have any question about this?

[Q] Does Sony Ericsson Live View work with Galxy Ace or Cyanogen mod?

Hi everyone, I have been thinking about buying a Sony Ericsson Live View, because its very cheap, but I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace with Cyanogen mod 7 which is based on Android 2.3.7, and I have heard that the live view works great with Gingerbread,but I am not complety sure if the live view could work with the Galaxy Ace specially with one which runs Cyanogen, so, if someone has a Galaxy Ace with a live view and he or she knows, i would be thankful, if that person answers my question, sorry for my English, its because I am learning it.

said that there was not any but it could be hidden somewhere
dont need to list all the names of the phones but that would be cool! if you want include past phones, who cares what operating system it runs, android,iOS, windows or even Symbian, maybe even include the operating version or Current ROM for it! (android 4.0, Windows 6.5 ETC....) a picture of them piled on each other would be cool too! plans on doing that in the future.

HTC Sensation and HTC One

I usually sell my old devices. I do have an iPod touch as a backup (I rarely make calls anyways). Even though I hate iOS and Apple it is nice to be up to date on what is going on with that platform, oh and sadly my iPod touch has a better camera than my S3 It's hard to believe but after many tests it's true at least in low light.

Who needs Android M to X?

Well, let me start from scratch:
Current equiment:
2 Asus Memopad 176C, rooted
S3 Mini ( my wífe does not want to have another phone), of course rooted
Xperia Z, stock, rooted
Xperia Z, just baught 2 mont ago, running androidexpert35
Lenov Yoga tab 2, baught 3 weeks ago, guess what, rooted
none of these will get an update to Android M-X
BUT - they are doing a pretty good job.
If not - there is still the opportunity to get a custom rom here.
Do we realy need the hype about Galaxy S99 ball?
Just a question.

Is it worth to pollute our planet with thrown away phones just because the user interface has been slightly modified?
