I'm wondering if this phone is still worth buying or it's better to wait for the Lumia 620. Question to this site: is this phone still relevant/worth it?

Might look at this if it's significantly cheaper than a Lumia 620 at around specified time.

IMO, I think HTC devices are better. Every Nokia I have had has been junk. Not sure/don't understand why everyone likes Nokia so much.
My one v is awesome, runs great. Only issue is grip of death signal issues. Are you going for CDMA or gsm?
Also I'm not sure what the Nokia you are looking at is. If its android, check out their development scene. If its slim pickings, you may be stuck on ICS or jb for a long time to come. A few devs for a device go a long way.

I'm either going with Virgin mobile $35/month if I get this or T-mobile $30/month if I get the 620. So a CDMA 1V as It's cheaper for the CDMA model. Does skype on android support rear camera video?
Not sure about Skype, it should work though. I am on the VM 35 a month plan and its great. Signal strength is just as good as my friends with sprint phones.
I do recommend groove IP for internet calling. Its a good alternative to using up cell minutes.

I really like the One V, I really like the build quality and how it grips with one hand. Its not the fastest phone in the market but for the price its well worth it. I use mine more like an mp3 player as I don't pay for service. My only grip is no FFC. To take self portraits look to the nearest mirror and point the camera lens towards you also works for video chat that allow you to use back camera for video chat.

Today I learned the true powers of the Android OS. It's So advanced. I left the 4S for this phone and I never been more happy.
I'm using the Asia One X in the usa on AT&T. The hardware on this phone is amazing. I'm so happy I made the switch.
When I first used it I noticed that the data was a tad bit slow. So I decided to to some research (Google and i go waaay back lol) and i found it could be do to APN settings. But the access point names where good. For all americans using this phone you gotta go online and change your data from Data for iPhone to data for smartphone. you can also call them. I did this now data just as fast as it was on my 4S and I'm getting more signal bars now. went from 3 to full.( if this helped you hit my thanks button) I'm trying to learn everything I can about android everything. any tips on what I can do or who I can talk to would be great.Thanks to all.
DROID DEFF DOSE!
You got my thanks for the switch from 4s to Android. Have fun with Android!

It's a fine phone. Coming from a 4.3" device it will take some time getting used to the screen size though. But once you do it's pretty great.
Rooting is rather noob-friendly, I think, although there aren't too many custom roms yet. That will change in the near future.
Yea I've already got a build environment set up on a Linux so shouldn't be to hard to build

I am a total noob and I have the one v I was able to root with out bricking so I would be willing to bet you will not have any probs
I'm a noob to, just joined today. I currently have a Bold9900 which is from Rogers, I unlocked it and took it to virgin for a cheaper plan. Although getting tired of blackberry itself cause this phone freezes 3 times a day, I have to pop the battery every time. I was thinking of switching over to the HTC One V
It seems like a decent phone.. I'm not the type of person to have the "latest and greatest" And i certainly don't fancy those 4+ inch mini-tablet super-phones like the Nexus 4 or the Galaxy S3... Even the One X is slightly to big for my liking... I also prefer expandable memory, which the One S doesn't have but the One V does.
This One V would be my FIRST Android phone ever. All I've ever had was Blackberry and an old Motorola. So I think it would be a good Android entry level phone.
Or choice is good although one backside is its a single core phone

I currently have an Inspire "4G". Where Im sitting, the VX looks pretty good. Not only is it an increase in screen size and processor specs, but also provides a front camera i've been missing since i lost my iphone. To top it all off, its only $50. I know the One X+ looks great and all, the VX just might be more of what i need. I don't watch movies on my phone(i use my ipad), and I HATE touch screen gaming, so yeah, i think this may be my next upgrade.

I'm in the same boat as you, I think 5.7" is too big , but unlke you, I do watch movies and play games in the phone , but I'm missing the front facing camera , even thought the specs on this one are low. A least I'll have one now , I don't have to flip the phone when I'm using tango
Just putting it out there , I check a few stores , and they don't have it . I wonder if is available . Or is on hold , or some stuff like that

pretty sweet little phone. can't wait til the devs get a crack at it
I'm also using an HTC DHD. I'm running AOKP JB 4.2.2and am really happy that the devs have supported that phone for so long, but I'm ready for an upgrade.
At this moment the One VX is 99¢ at ATT online. Naturally I came here first to see what the community has been doing with the device. The early lack of support is keeping my wallet closed for now.

Yes, because it's unlocked it would work with Simple- just need to stick in the SIM.
Do you already have the S II? Depending on how much you're getting the One X for, I'm not sure it's worth it... it's a baby step up, if anything.

apart from the battery and the camera i dont think the s4 has got that much more.. good looking device but i think the alluminium unibody of the One is nicer. and probably most of the people here prefers sense over touchwiz. indeed two top specs phones!
definitely tempted with One. Also signed up for the supposely $100 rebate from HTC. Who knows...I might buy the One to get the rebate and sell it hopefully at a higher price. :fingers-crossed:...unless I decide to keep it
