Developing an Android smartphone app - on which devices would YOU suggest to check the app?

before publishing a new app on the market, on which devices would you suggest to check whether it runs fine or not? What are your experiences? How do you handle this?

Are there some empirical values, for example, do applications that run smoothly on a HTC Desire behave similar on all HTC devices? Are there some devices on which the app should definately be checked?

I like to picture myself releasing a high quality product instead of throwing some crap on the market. :) But I suppose I am not the only one who cannot buy like 5 or more devices just to ensure that the apps works fine on every kind of device. Well, at least not yet... ;)

Thanks for your help!

Best regards S.

  • The most problems in my app are freezes on droid... no other device reports freezes... just droid.

    If you have access to different devices, very good. If not, test at least all possible screen sizes and densities with the emulator. Thats my advice.
