Jin Madera, 03 May 2010answer to your question...this is what i notice after using... moreHi thanks for answering :)

Do you really suggest I'll go for China phones? I'm just worried that there might be no repairs for it if there's a problem & you have to buy the whole thing again

Actually I'm not after for the camera/video/music features

Is it legible to read even if in direct sunlight?

It's only slow during adding recipients? So texting is fine?

      for all...
      if you are using sim1 for calling then suddenly someone calling you in your second sim...it will give a BUSY TONE to the one calling you in your sim2...meaning if you hang up the sim1 thats the time someone will reach your sim2...clear????

        alluka, 03 May 2010Hi I'm planning to buy this phone here in the Philippines. ... moreanswer to your question...this is what i notice after using it for 26 days...

        1. yes it is so clear but you have to set your volume to one because so clear that sometimes you cannot hear it clearly or maybe it depends upon the signal strength of the provider you are using in the philippines...

        2. dis is not worth buying for...camera is bad because its only 1.3mp im not happy using this for any picture taking as well as for video...for the music its gud but still this fon is very slow when you want to skip a song it takes 3sec to hear the next song but the sound is great...no regrets

        3. no idea for the documents viewer...(dis is for texting and calling)

        4.yes u can choose any sounds files for you sms alert ring tone alert even for the alarms...

        one thing i noticed,once a week im having problem with detecting my 2 sim,sometimes my smart did not recognised this fone so i have to switch it to the second slot to finally recognised it...anyway final word for this for after using it for almost a month(4 more days)...
        browsing is fast but it still depend upon the signal strength...
        battery is good up to 2 days...
        sound is good...(contented)
        camera is bad(for me)
        video not bad but not too good as well
        calling and texting is you have to adjust because this phone is to slow in adding recipient contacts...
        by the way this phone is only suited for someone who likes to text and call using 2 different sims...

        buy china phone mas cheaper pa...at nde mo na kelangan mag switch switching pa hehehe...

          ds set rocks simply .. jst da prblm wd ds is of less sms memory n slow speed at times ..
          not suitable for messaging addicts like me :D
          othrwise it has evrything dat u can have in such price level ..

          moreover best for those who r looking for dual sim .. lg has dual sim like gx200 and two more touch phones .. bt in overall style n looks .. fizz rokz
          remembr samsung is da only trustworthy dual sim manufacturer

          china mobile is such a crap .. it is good bt not durable .. no warranty no replacement .. huh

            Hi I'm planning to buy this phone here in the Philippines.
            Anyway to those users:

            1. is the voice clarity during calls clear? even in a loud environment can you still hear the other person on the other line & vice versa?

            2. also, is it worth buying? actually the camera/music/video capability is just an added bonus, not really after those features

            3. where do you guys download the document viewer? GSM Arena should've check its specs

            4. can I customize different ring tones/message alert tones of each person?

            thanks! (sorry if some are already asked..)

                                I bought this phone last week, phone is good but battery back sucks, need to charge everyday.
                                Sound clarity on speaker is also OK but if you are planning to listen FM on speaker then it really consumes lot of battery.

                                  ss, 29 Apr 2010Hello jin , i am planning to buy this phone.What is ur opin... moreI could talk for 3 hrs after recharge. Talk time given in specifications of this phone in Gsm Arena appears to be correct; rest of the battery life depends on how we use it for audio, video etc. So batter backup is ok for a dual sim phone like this.

I tried running it with just one SIM but its still the same. Dont expect battery life for more than one day. If you spoke for 1 hour, you are drained.
