Most obvious choice is galaxy s2, based on your requirement for dual core. Personally I'd go with an htc though, as the software is usually much better. I believe the top htc is the Sensation, although I'm not sure if there is an 850 version yet.

1) arc is a Sony phone

1 + 2 = fail

Not sure if this matters but watching reviews of the sensation there seems to be some lag?

Don't worry too much about lag. All this can be fixed with custom firmware anyways. If you really care about the resolution. HTC Sensation right now. If not. The Samsung Galaxy S2. Samoled Plus ftw.

played with a sensation earlier today. build quality is really awesome, always had a thing for htc's designs. however the extra pixels is insignificant compared the superior contrast of the gs2 lol. screen is pretty washed out compared to super amoled

Well you know samsung, known for making the best panels in the world, no wonder most companies don't make their own and off samsung. Posted via RS Mobile

Get either the Galaxy S II or the HTC Sensation, since they're both miles ahead of the iP4.
I would personally get the GSII for the SAMOLED and the unlocked bootloader, since all the other components are nearly equal once you get into rooting the phone and putting custom ROMs into them. Sensations still have a locked bootloader AFAIK and won't be unlocked officially until August - September, which is a major deal breaker.
If you prefer critic's comparisons on either phone since they've actually used it: Phone Arena: Sensation vs GSII | |

still wondering about the next iPhone.....i have to say the SG2's look doesn't sing to me despite being a clone of iP4. still 64gb of storage is pretty tasty sounding

EDIT holy shit, <--- 19,000th post! | Exactly. They are nothing alike. The only argument apple has is Samsung's DRAWER looks similar to the ios interface. But so would anything with a list of icons on a black background. Posted via RS Mobile | |

I've heard that the unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation can only do 2G on the Rogers network? Is the Bell version any different?

Bell's HTC Sensation has the correct 850mhz band so yes it will work on 3G with Rogers
