Hey Guys,
I'm still with my Samsung Galaxy S 1, I'm gonne throw it to the oven soon, it drives me nuts and I wanne get something else asap.

I have around 250$ to spend right now (actually 350$ but the shipping + taxes cost at least 100$), Iv'e checked soooo many chinese branded which has pretty amazing specs, and I got lost.

My requirements are:

*Screen size: Between 5.0 inch - 7.0 inch. (The bigger the better)

*GPS

*Gyro

*At least 5MP cam with "quality" photos as much as possible

*At least 720HD video recording

*Good resolution - Not sure exactly how much is good, you must know what i'm talking about

*3g internet support

*Can't think about something else

-------------

Iv'e checked a lot of them: Cubot(Don't like it), Zopo, THL(Don't like the Samsung look), Huwei, ZTE, Freelander, And on and on...

Please help! I'm going nuts of looking!

Thx ahead guys!


Edit:
What do you think about this one -

Star S7589

Edit 2:
If I don't hear from you until tomorrow morning I'm gonne buy it :) Hope it won't turned out to be a mistake:

Modern Combat 4 Gameplay on S7589 MT6589 Phone - YouTube
 
I'm with chanchan05 on this one - don't get the cheap no brand phones.

Sure you might end up with a good one, but they're more of a risky buy compared to the quality name brands. If you don't have the money for one save up for a little longer.

Nope. I personally would recommend staying away from Chinese "unbranded" phones. On the other hand, Huawei, ZTE and Lenovo are pretty decently branded Chinese phones. Stay away from the Star and generic ones.

It actually tell almost all that I already thought about and afraid of, the branded you gave me are more expensive, already checked.. I will recheck again and maybe i'll find what i'm looking for.

Thx for the warning mate

Is Nexus 7 - Google available to you in Israel? It's US$229 and shipping surely can't be $100, which might allow you the $349 32GB variant also.

I actually thought about a 7.0 inch Tablet/Phone, what can I use it for 3g and talking?

Its always the "wait a bit longer..", I finally have the option to buy a really "awsom" phone, maybe I should..

Drive me nuts..

Thx man, i'll wait some more


Thx guys, i'll do some more thinking

:banghead:
 
With a price limitation of 250-350, you're likely looking and trying to find a used carrier unbranded Galaxy Note 1 or using a data enabled 7 inch tablet and using Voice over IP options.
 
What do you think about Zopo c3 smartphone? This brand isn't popular, but I watched some videos in youtube and it made good impression for me
