In my s560 phone twitter is not downloading. I have tried so many times to download from Google play store but failed. Also reset it 2 times but some of the application is not running. One feedback that battery backup is not good.

Lenovo S560 is a great phone (based on experience), I am a Windows & Android reviewer.
Sound Quality:
Let me start-off this phone with its [best] feature they are advertising music, S560 has a DOLBY Digital Plus speaker and yes it is a good speaker (to all those people who say the music quality lessens because of the speaker got destroyed -DO NOT ABUSE the speakers everything has a limit). I am quite impressed of it's sound quality -well done Lenovo, and PS: don't set the volume at max and let it play for long hours, the speaker quality may indeed lessen and it is the users fault NOT Lenovo. A rate of 8/10
Battery Life:
Time and time again, all batteries have a life span -to help maintain the life span of ANY phone you must never; play & charge at the same time, call & charge, close all apps after use, over-charging, etc.
Basically the S560's battery life gets a rate of 7/10.
User Friendly:
When I first bought this phone, I found it really easy to use (well the manual didn't actually help this time, considering the contents of the manual were just safety precautions). A rate of 9/10.
Utility:
*Lenovo S560 has all its short-cuts on a very helpful tab (slide-down). There you can find mostly the general settings you need, when you use the (slide down) short-cut you'll see [WLAN, Bluetooth, GPS, Data Connection and Airplane Mode] ready for your disposal.
*Also if you use (slide down + swipe left), you'll see another set of short-cuts [Energy Smart, Brightness, Timeout and Auto-Rotate] these are basically short-cut keys for general purposes.
*If you use (slide down + swipe right), you'll see yet another set of short-cuts [General, Silent, Meeting and Outdoor] these are short-cut keys for profiles. These gets a rate of 9/10.
Cost - Value ratio:
Relatively cheap for it's value I'd give it a rate of 9/10.
Updates:
Well since I bought this phone a couple of months ago and only got one (1) MAJOR update and (depending on the apps you've downloaded) many app updates I'd say this is spot-on. A rate of 10/10.
Apps:
Well now, this is very interesting -Android has an app that syncs your iTunes Data to your Android (Apple fans must've left and went to Android -just saying). And majority of apps in the App Store are available in Play Store and hopefully all apps from the App Store will be available in Android, since it will take a week or two for Play Store because it needs to be ported. A rate of 9/10.
General Rate:
Well all what you've read was in my opinion, so in my own score I'd give this phone a rate of 9.5/10.

I'd say that the phone and its features are really awesome. However, the Dolby Speaker is not durable. I tested the speakers in full volume for at least 3 songs and it is now busted. The sound quality becomes poor. :(

I have no issue about Lenovo S560 except for its accessories; e.g. protective screen and protective casing - not quite available. Battery also depletes fast. However, overall performance of the phone is ok. Sound quality is very good especially if your using a headset. Lagging issue - just quit some running programs that aren't in use. I run facebook, tweeter, Yahoo! messenger with audio/video, along with anti-virus and some HD games.
