No, it says "The best phone/camera" and the shitty Sony isn't it, which is why they have warehouses full of the things.

Your love of the plastic Samsung phones, irrational love; I hasten to add, appears to get the better of you 'Arry. You may not like the phone, but the reviews are excellent and people with them are well satisfied...

Keep trying Boo, not even close mate.

06 February, 2014 Sony did cut its forecast for number of smartphones sold to 40 million units from 42 million. Considering it has already sold 30.3 million, this implies Sony expects to sell under 10 million units in the first three months of 2014.

Yes, people are already getting bored with the things. Samsung sold 10 million Note 3's alone in that time.

The note is good. The S4 and S5 are not so good...

Now 'Arry, you fukin lunatic... It turns out that foreign bought phones won't work in Korea, so I'm gonna have to get a contract with a new phone next month. Any suggestions?

Rent one in Korea, they use the American system.

Why? I don't give a shit.

^ yes you do, you wanna see my new Sony, bought in Korea, you know you do; nobody forces you to the thread, but you come back time after time...

Because I posted in it, and I am always keen to help people who learn from my extremely useful postings rather than the "Blah Blah I love Sony fap fap fap" shit you keep posting due to your incurable confirmation bias.

Here's a Chinese phone to piss on both Sony and Samsung's bonfire

Oppo Announces Find 7 Flagship Device – 5.5Inch 538PPI 2K Display Monster with 50mp camera.

At their global media launch in Beijing, Oppo have unveiled their flagship smartphone, the feature-packed Find 7. As expected, the Find 7 will be the smallest 2K display at a staggering 5.5inches and a resolution of 2560 x 1440 it gives a jaw dropping 538PPI. The Oppo Find 7 has a JDI-Manufactured Quad HD Display and is truly the smallest 2K display on the market. The Find 7 is powered by a 2.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 Quad Core CPU with Adreno 330 GPU as well as 3GB of RAM.

On the imaging side, the Find 7 will feature a 13MP IMX214 Sony Sensor with dedicated ISP, Dual-mode LED flash, f/2.0 Aperture lens as well as Pure Image 2.0 featureset that also includes a 50MP Super Zoom software enhancement suite. How exactly this works, is still a mystery to us, but as soon as we figure it out, we’ll bring it to you. It appears that the sensor will shoot 10 shots continuously, before merging them into a massive 50MP image. The Find 7 will also record 4K videos at 30fps and feature RAW file export, a crazy 32-second slow shutter speed, as well as a Hand-Held Night Mode.
The Oppo Find 7 will also be the first smartphone to feature the MAXX Audio Mobile Technology. This software enhancement feature promises to deliver the best audio quality ever produced on a smartphone, while the MAXXEQ Equaliser allows you to have even greater audio control.
Wrapping up the features is the impressive 3,000mAh battery that has a brand new VOOC battery charging technology that can quickly charge your Find 7 from flat to 75% in just 30 minutes, this is pretty handy and 4 times faster than conventional chargers.
The lower-end variant, the Find 7a, will be on sale in China from March 20 (that’s tomorrow) for 2998 Yuan (around RM1590), while the flagship Find 7 will be priced at 3498 Yuan (around RM1850). However, the higher end Find 7′s availability both in China and internationally has not been announced.

Oh FFS Dilly now Betty's going to go scrabbling around trying to find websites say that his wanky Sony is better than that and so the cycle continues.

What... a pink Z3 prototype ?

That OPPO looks nice. Just bought an S4 after my S3 got nicked in Cambo.

Will hold out for a year or so (that's more or less how long phones last these days) and see what's on the market then.

The S3 was good. The S4 is marginally better (ie. faster).

End of the day, they're all top-end phones, and do their jobs as expected. Until they expire on their chosen date, day and time.

Oh and you said it had a 50MP camera - but according to the table it's only 13MP.

Now Boo will scream in relief and go and knock one out.

^ I lied about that bit

but....

There is some truth to that. I went around Bkk looking at phones today, kinda felt like buying something, even considered an iPad mini retina with 3g (can't get wifi currently in me new house...), but the sales staff were so crap I gave up. Had a nice pink (shocking pink no less!) z1 compact in Muscat yesterday, thought about buying that too. But... me cheap HP laptop and my xperia z do everything between them - don't need anything else...

Liar, liar pants on fire - it has a crap camera...

Now, I was looking at all the phones out there, picking them up and playing (I had 6 hours to kill in Muscat yesterday and about 3 hours in Bkk today...) and my thoughts are:

The iPhone 5c is utter shite.

The iPhone 5s is very nice, especially in grey, but it seems just a little bit too small.

The Sony xperia z1 compact is a rrally nice phone, a better size than the iPhone 5s, but the iPhone does feel nicer in the hand.

The Samsung s3 is a good price fro a decent phone, down to about 11,500 baht. The s4 is very average indeed.

The HTC 1 is really nice, but a little bit big.

The HTC One mini is really nice, but the specs let it down a but, but at 12,000 baht it's not bad - a 9,000 baht it'd be great. Funnily enough, my friend who had the an HTC W8 phone was looking to buy one today, but said she'd wait until it comes down below 10,000 baht. She is having problems with the windows phone...

The Samsung s3 and s4 felt really plastic and cheap compared to all the others I've mentioned. I know many of you folks like them, but at the price (they are bloody expensive) they just feel horrible to me...

I told you Dilly, here comes Boo!

FAP! FAP! FAP!



And the cnut didn't even look at the Note 3, the dogs bollocks.

the thing Betty doesnt get, with his waterproof sony, is... phone cases.

2 mates come to mind, one has an s4 with a leather outer, suede inner, wallet case and you can feel its quality as well as see it through that great screen. the other has an iphone 5s with a plastic battery pack clamped on, which totally destroys the quality feel

Anyone seen a motorola moto G on sale in Bkk yet?
