Is fuji f31fd best (p&s) indoor with or without flash??

I just bought the f31fd yesterday and when i put in auto mode and i shot the flash run,and when flash run all the cameras are the same because i heard that the flash make photos not good.But when i shot in manual mode (without flash) at iso 800,the image is worse,i prefer the flash certainly,and we return to flash that decrease the quality of photo.I think that because i'm beginer in photo i dont understand how f31 is great.Can u explain how f31 better than the other?Is it better than f40 with flash?Please i need information clear.Thanks very much.

Flash doesn't make a shot bad, using it badly does. On a compact camera the flash is usually bad since it's so close to the lense. But you can do things to improve the quality, like do a slow shutter sync. I'd imagine that camera can do that, usually referred to as something like night portrait mode. But that camera is really nice because it has very low ISO noise for a compact camera, so you can shoot at 800 and have a good result. What did you not like about the shot? If it was blurry, maybe there still wasn't enough light even with ISO 800. If it was the colour, maybe your white balance is off. Shot too dark/bright, adjust your exposure. If it's just the lighting, well, that's just the lighting. I'd recommend just shooting different modes until you find something you really like, but the biggest reason that camera is so good is because of it's great job of keeping noise low even at higher ISO.

Read this article and you'll see a nice comparison as to why that one is better than others:
