Window phone 7/7.5 suggestion..

[Lord Ammar]

overall performance of android is better than wp7 but wp7 has smoothest scroll and decent web browsing.
also you can have very much different experiences in android like ics, miui, cm7, or simple gingerbread

android is not for those who don't know customizing or flashing seriously it is nothing without customizing...
i also think wp7 > meego and ios.... ios and meego are boring but fast and stable

I know for a fact that you've not used meego -.-

[musab]

i have used it bro... my cousin has it and i always debate with him about meego and android

Yes it is, the only and the possible solution for a phone to survive longer in the competition then what it was meant to.

You made my point
For Android to perform better and 'last' longer, you will have to tweak it.
If I am paying 50k for a phone, I want most out of my money the moment I open the box. Not after tweaking with it.
Lets make it 25k, or hell even 15k is a handsome amount these days. If I am getting it, I want most out of it the moment I lay my hands on it. Not after tinkering with it

At least on Android you have a choice to make the most out of your phone.

There is no need to do such things in other OSes

Lets close this discussion now.

Sorry mary, your argument doesn't make any sense. No Android user I know personally puts ROMs on their phones except 2 (out of more than 15), even I don't put a ROM on it unless it's unsupported (and then I just buy a new phone).

So no, tweaking is not *required* on Android to get the intended experience, especially not after ICS. I doubt you've even used ICS. What GrunT is talking about is the freedom of choice.

You can choose to make third-party apps default for operations, delegate operations to other apps so that you don't have to code uselessly. It's this inter-communication between apps that makes Android unique. iOS, WP7 or even Meego can't do this one. Example: An app that needs to store barcodes can delegate the "reading the barcode" part to another app like Google Goggles or Barcode reader.

Except for the newest Nexus, all of the Android devices I have used are not as fast as the competition is/was. And I have used a lot of them.

Define: FAST?
Are you referring to the UI Animations/Transitions etc?
How did you jump to the conclusion, saying "They were not as fast"?

Oh wait ... Yes that "Lag" you mentioned.

So it seems you are intentionally not mentioning the "Freedom" Android Owners get for their money.

I recently got the chance to try the mighty Note. I heard a lot of people saying it lags as hell, and is probably one of the most laggiest devices,

You might've heard about the 4G AT&T variant which was NOT using Exynos Chipset

and some said it is the fastest out there.

Fastest? Umm ... For a device this sized, yes Its Fastest
(Considering there isn't a device of THAT size with a 720p SuperAMOLED Gigantic & Orgasamic display.)

You are paying a handsome amount of money for a phone and you should get the most out of your money out of the box. Not after tweaking with it.

If you want "The Most" (benefit) of your money ... Out of the Box ... then YOU should get iOS or a WP7 device [/sarcasm]

Leave the rest of the people buying Android. Because you actually DO get what you pay for. Infact, you get MORE than that, which includes the FREEDOM to do almost anything with your device. Kind of a thing which Geeky people would love to have.

Mind you, just like @FanDroid mentioned, its not *compulsory* to do the tweaking to make it faster. Instead, you get the OPTION to make it EVEN BETTER, which most people do avail.

Custom ROMs aren't the solution.

Flashing your device is never the solution.

Flashing your device is never the solution.

So 3 times you said that.
Makes me think ... Tum andar se he daray huway ho

At times, a Custom ROM becomes Most Suitable solution available for you.

Want a Fine Example?
Hint Hint: Cyanogen Mod

It doesn't always go as planned.

Risks are attached to almost everything like that.

Bandar k haath main chaaku pakrao gay ... to koi acha kaam to nahin karay ga na wo

Almost all of the people who are into this stuff, should do their readings first, before jumping in the Battlefield. It yields "Effective" results. Heck even if you do something idiotic, you still are given a chance to Redeem your device. (Hint Hint: Download/Recovery Modes of Android devices)

To end this 'weak' discussion of yours ... Please ussay "WP7" ki suggestion do. You dont need to 'brag' about Android and its 'weak points'

i think wp7 is quite efficient as compared to android. it can run smoothly in 1gigz. it just need time and attention. wait till windows 8 shows up.
