Thinking of getting one of these phones.

Really not sure which one to get though, You can pick up an LG Renoir for around £80-£90 and you can pick up a Samsung Pixon 12 for around £200.

They are both similar phones but i know they both have advantages and disadvantages.

The Pixon 12 doesn't have many cons by the looks of it, I know the camera is excellent and so is the flash.

The Renoir has dolby mobile sound and plays divx videos but i have heard the xenon flash is very very poor and not much better than an LED or on a par with an LED flash.

What do you think??

Thanks, Why would you say it is miles better? You can still pick them up secondhand.

Don't understand why they were discontinued so quickly, Obviously they never sold very many.

It had software issues and that's rare in my experience with Samsung. Its better for everything picture quality was stunning on it and it has more up to date features plus better screen just everything

The camera of the Pixon is very good, but the rest of this phone isn't. I'd never pay £200 for one tbh.

I would scrap both and get a HTC Wildfire for the same price maybe a little higher, much better phone.

I want a phone with a decent camera and flash though, No new phones have a decent camera especially HTC phones.

It would be great if there was a android phone with a good camera and flash but there isn't, I've tried out a friends Xperia X10 and the camera is very disappointing, good outside but terrible and fuzzy indoors and it has a crappy photo light on the back which is terrible and doesn't even flash.
