Nostalgia ❤ this was my first ever smartphone which was around 10-11 years ago. And today i am watching this on my galaxy s23 ultra. Must say, the smartphone industry came a long way. But surely sony Xperia smartphones were the best in class smartphone at that time. ❤
HTC Explorer V/s TIPO > Android 2.3 4.0 > 600Mhz 800Mhz (Doesn't make much difference.both MSM7225A processor) > adreno 200 same > screen resolution, ppi, size are same > camera both 3.2mp (I found that TIPO has a better Camera ) > internal memory 90MB 2.9GB!! (TIPO is a clear winner in this category) > battery 1230mAh 1500mAh (Tipo is a clear winner ,here too) tipo has some positives like looks,scratch resistance
i m in the same confusion...i m also planning to buy a new cellphone i've already Nokia E-63 and A LG-T300 but now i want to go for Android...so waiting for Ranjit's full indepth review. Hope he'll Review it soon. i ♥ Sony brand so totaly confused btwn Explorer and sony's tipo.
Yeah, multitouch provided for both units. This mobile is awesome for the price. If you save some money, Xperia J is a better choice... but I like Xperia V much more.
Hello Sir, I's planning to buy HTC Explorer a few days later, but now that you've reviewed this phone, I'm interested in this one too. I've some basic queries- 1. Memory...why 2 different segments? 2. Is full Flash support available in this like Explorer? 3. How's the build quality? 4. How's the display qualities? and my final question...which one should I buy - Tipo or Explorer? Thanx in advance :) Waiting for the full review :)
(No point in comparing this phone with HTC desire C) I have been using this phone for about 3 months now, and I think it's the best android phone in its category (8000-10,000 bracket) + ICS + BATTERY LIFE (Awesome 1500 mAh) lasts more than a day even for above normal use + SCREEN ( Bright and Vivid ..better than most phones) + INTERNAL MEMORY (4GB Never run out of space for apps) + GAMING (Better than most phones.I found that HTC exporer is the only phone which outperforms tipo)
i wnt to ask tht which phne i buy between HTC desire V or SONY xperia tipo...?? htc is second hand phne.. plzzzz tell me which phne i buy....???? reply soon...??
after watching sony xperia tipo and htc desire c reviews i found that xperia tipo have higher processor than desire c and desire c had better display, design, platform and camera ... So i am confused and i dont know which one would be better
sir,if i would go for a bigger screen say 3.5 or 3.7 den which phone would you suggest please let me know your favorite,budget 10k to 12k other than samsung...........please do reply
Recommended phone ST21i! find Pure Cynogenmpd+ FXP219 CM10, its fast n lite (no lag like other custom JB Rom) or Gimlo fw + Ultrabeast Rom if you prefer stock ICS... its also De-bloated & Deodexed already...
i just want to know thus this device is good in screen clarity then HTC explorer and wt about speaker volume fr call and music also heard this device ocassionaly slowdown is it?if s plz mention some suggestions waiting fr indepth review and reply on my comment
i am planning to buy this phone but little confuse..its does not have flash and pinch to zoom.. can u tell me the bad features of this phone coz im confuse between htc explorer and tipo
@Geekyranjit can u tell us approx. time when u'll post full indepth review. I m really Waiting for ur words on it ! and i watched almost all the videos today and i found u're really a geek. keep it up we want reviews like u do. it's really helpfull.
i am very well interested in this phone ..can i know how the sim functions..is it that both sims are active and active Sim receives call simultaneously like Samsung Ace duos..or it may turn to not reachable when one sim is active on call like other phones thanks
There is no headphones with this phone. You must to buy it separately... I don't have the dual sim version, I have the single sim version of this model, but I saw both models...
I think there is no point in comparing this phone with HTC desire C Desire C is priced higher than this phone. Does not even fall in the same price bracket. (Compare it with HTC explorer.That would be a fairer comparison)
Thanks for ur reply. and I really appriciate because i m going to buy new cell within week so i'll compare ur both review htc explorer and this xperia Tipo. ..Thanks :)
hello sir, I am a 13 year old boy and I am searching an android mobile for me. Till now I have seen mobiles under 10000 and I came across with samsung galaxy y, HTC explorer and sony xperia tipo. Also came across with brands like Lava, mmx and karbonn which I don't prefer. So please sir tell me a good choice between sony xperia tipo or htc explorer. and please show the full review of xperia tipo With regards, Chakshu khanna
Q&A : Hey Ranjit, My friend is planning to get a new Smart Phone for 10k. So I suggested the Xperia Tipo but you said that the screen size is small,Is it easy to text in this phone? Because He does texting a lot! Please suggest some good phones under the price range of 10k! Thanks!
Better to choose Xperia Tipo. Android ICS 4,0,4,,, In Malaysia, we can get this phone for the price below 400 Ringgit. Higher pixel density. 180 ppi Vs 133 ppi... build in storage memory of 2.5 GB for tipo and battery is even batter with tipo. 1500 mah.
hi ranjeet i was looking to buy a budget android phone and it is going to be my first android phone so i came across your reviews and like the way u reviewed phones. i have shorlisted htc explorer,htc desire c ,and i also thought of Tipo but when i took it in hand i didnt like build quality at all in comparison to explorer and desire. what is better explorer or desire cause they both have same hardware apart from internal memory thing and ics,camera, so is low internaL memory a big issue? contd
i am 12 years boy i want buy a android phone in range of around 15000 please tell me i should buy which phone in these three 1.xperia tipo 2.htc desire c 3.sony ericsson live with walkman
contd... doesnt sound good either,,isnt 600mhz too low for ics ,,screensize,camera not an issue for me im happy wid camera n screen of explorer its the internal memory and android version thats problem wid explorer for me.memory problem can be solved wid memory card,but what about android version,,does installing apps games on memory card cause any lag on running & processing speed of apps n games ? can i install ics on explorer after rooting cause thats only option to upgrade contd.....
contd. cause i wont be hesitating to install apps and good games i know that we can install things on memory card but is rooting necessay for that??? i have seen things like aps2sd,,link2sd appps do that do we require rooting? overall i liked explorer but againg i think it will be outdated in around next few months as it wont have latest android version4.so i think that i might not be able to in stall latest stuff after a few months on explorer but again ics running on 600mhz processor contd...
contd.. i really liked specs of defy plus and 7000 is very cheap and a good n perfect price for a phone costing 13000 . but rebooting problem stoped me from buying it is this rebooting problm common in defy+? . what to do pls tell should i buy defy+ at 7000 is it worth takig that risk?? or should i go for explorer with 8gb memory carrd n later install ics if its available officialy or after warranty is over then rooting and upgrading it to ics through rooting or spend 12000 on desire?? contd..
I am interested in 50 gb storage too. I have sony xperia tipo (the single sim version) and I don't have that label (for 50 gb free storage) on my box... Is that just for India, from provider, or is it just for the dual sim model? I ask this because the price is very similar (I have paid for my 220 euros - that is a little more in american dollars, 250 I think)...

which one has better web browsing experience htc desire c or sony tipo?

There is no headphones with this phone. You must to buy it separately... I don't have the dual sim version, I have the single sim version of this model, but I saw both models...
I think there is no point in comparing this phone with HTC desire C
Desire C is priced higher than this phone. Does not even fall in the same price bracket.
(Compare it with HTC explorer.That would be a fairer comparison)
Do some comparisons with micromax a100, Micromax a90, Samsung Galaxy y duos and the Sony mini pro
