          What on earth is adreno 203? Now a dual core adreno 205 would be good! GSM please let us know if this is an error.

            AnonD-41271, 30 Aug 2012So Now we have 4 phones in this range 1) Samsung Galaxy ... moreWell actually Ace 2 and Sola have dual-core Cortex A9 CPU(NovaThor U8500) and they can handle(record&play) 720p HD videos,they also have Mali 400 GPU,so it's a little unfair to compare them with Xperia J and Desire X,right?

                  Anonymous, 30 Aug 2012confused between the two newly announced phones sony xperia... moreThis one has a dual core Cortex A5 so,roughly it should be twice as powerful.Also GPU should be better(Adreno 203 on this one vs.200 on Xperia J)But still can't handle 720p videos,for your information.

                      Abby, 30 Aug 2012HTC Desire X is the better of the two as its a dual core ph... moreIt's better than j but it'll certainly cost more.probably cost around the same as xperia sola and galaxy s advance which r superior than this or who knows maybe even more given htc's history of releasing overpriced phones.

                        my neo v has single core and does 720pHD what is the use in buying dual core without HD recording and probably viewing ability... you can buy an second hand S2 instead

                                So Now we have 4 phones in this range

                                1) Samsung Galaxy Ace 2
                                2) Sony Xperia Sola
                                3) Sony Xperia J
                                4) HTC Desire X

                                Tough space, hope Samsung releases Ace 2 in India soon, as it is Ace Plus is not selling cause people know about Ace 2, else they are going to loose the middle segment of the market to these three.
