    I own this phone. This Phone is simply awesome, got it for INR 12000, cant get my hands off it, Love the hardware keyboard, in heavy usage the battery dies in a day, thats the only issue, otherwise the device is awesome, does not lag and after rooting it I have also installed live wallpapers and other stuff, I would have liked a 1 GHZ processor, but the 667 MHZ has not shown any issues been using it for more than a week now and you cant imagine the number of apps i have installed… absolutely no lag… Have also used the LG Optimus one (Friend has one) and both these devices are on par with each other in terms of performance. so if you want a device thats good in performance, not too hard on your pocket and has a hardware keyboard, go in for it… I’m sure you wont regret it…

                        Which is better: THIS or Sony Ericsson Vivaz Pro?

                        I'm really very confused about which phone to buy. Both have their own pros and cons. So far the feature that I've been considering mainly is that

                        .Samsung has Android OS while Sony has Symbian. I've heard that Android is better that's why I want to give it a try.
                        .For the design, I think the Sony is better since the galaxy 551 looks like a typical samsung phone when the keyboard is hidden.
                        .for the camera, the 5-megapixel of SE obviously beats 3-megapixel of samsung. Sony also has better resolution.
                        .With regards to usage, Samsung has a better touch screen response because it is already capacitive.
                        .The sony also has a better screen resolution.
                        .However, sony doesn't support Divx player and doesn't have the Adobe Flash Player that Samsung has.
                        .And now, the last factor I'm considering is the durability of the phones. Everyone's saying that Sony is much more durable. But is it really true?

                        With all these features, can you guys help me decide? Has everything I said correct? Please help me decide. Especially the owners of these phones.

                          Nikhil, 06 Jan 2011 guyz plz Help me Out .. shd i buy dis pHone or go 4 lg ... more@Nikhil LG Optimus One has more RAM(512 MB) and better screen resolution. But if you are interested in a physical QWERTY keypad, go for Samsung Galaxy 551. You won't be disappointed! I bought one last week and I'm having loads of fun with it!!

                                  There is a bug in Android. Icons of applications wich are installed to memory card may disappear. Then You must put it back and hope that it stay there.

                                  Yes, multitouch is supported.
