I can't agree more with Eric. Why get 20 phones that are all identical? Get some variety so that you write apps that work as expected for multiple devices. You can't put a price tag on quality. It's not worth saving $50 per phone if you end up writing an app that breaks on a particular device and you get a bunch of upset customers and bad ratings/image.
You definitely want to vary things like: * hard keyboard vs soft keyboard * high-res screens vs low-res screens * fast vs slow cpus And Eric's link to that spreadsheet is freaking great. -- PJ On Nov 10, 5:42 pm, "Eric Wong (hdmp4.com)" <ericwon...@gmail.com> wrote: > I would say get at least one unit for each Android models out there? > Since every unit seems to have slight variation of Android > implementation and apk tested on one may not work on the other. > > Hope this spreadsheet would > helphttp://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=rdm8c2ZfSDKd5l-dVy4SrnA&output... > > Cheers > Eric > > On Nov 10, 12:31 pm, Ash <ashwin.disco...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > I'm new to android development.
