OK i've downloaded and tested Shadowgun on my phone and it runs as smooth as butter when I played it for the first time. The only one problem that I had is the RAM. The game stutters like hell when I start the game while other stuff are active (Internet, SMS, etc.) so I had to manually clear applications (settings>applications>running apps) first just to give way to Shadowgun which consumes 100+ mb. I dunno what's going on with my phone, but my when I check my RAM status, it's always at 210 to 270/350 MB even though i'm not running any apps while it goes down to 150/350 after restarting my phone. Bottom line is it's a perfect mid-range phone that can run any games but not a good multitasker.:)

    AnonD-35478, 25 Dec 2011Is there a default EBOOK app in this model?This phone bundled with Polaris app. You can read word, excel, power point & pdf files and write word, excel & power point file.

    If that's not enough, you can always download app you need.

                    AnonD-24000, 23 Dec 2011hey dude i am new to Android dont know what root is just c... moreroot is the term when you like to have access to the system files and apps of your phone so that you can optimize its usage... but beware because when rooting is wrong you might brick your phone, making it not usable anymore.

                        AnonD-33350, 23 Dec 2011how did u install dead space? and where did you get the apk... morethru mediafyre app from android market... and downloaded the data files through wifi... actually all HD games are capable in this phone...

                        when the apps are paid in the market, you can always search the full version using the mediafyre app...

                        its just a matter of being resourceful dude...

                        here's the link for the mediafyre in the market:

                          Just Asking, 23 Dec 2011lol. this phone must have ics , nowadays all phones have ic... moreit would be a late update for this phone due to:

                          1. not a high-end phone or samsung's flagship phone (like s2 or nexus S)
                          2. this is an international release phone and it came out late


                          but, sure it can accommodate the ICS when it comes to software and hardware build...

                            MAJ, 23 Dec 2011published specifications of galaxy w says it has 512MB RAM.... moregalaxy w is running TW 4.0 and it needs a stable ram, so the difference between 512 and 351 is the ram allocated only to touch wiz... if you are really bothered to use the whole 512, root your phone and remove touchwiz... it will solve your problem...

                            i root mine and am using the 512 full ram, but when removing the TW, ensure that you back it up using the Titanium backup after rooting and before removing... so when the official update for the ICS is available you can easily update your phone without any problem...

                            actually, this is the main reason why galaxy s and sl are not going to get ICS update due to its old RAM build without partition for the TW4.0... ICS only runs on TW 4.0 for samsung phones...

                                    Anonymous, 22 Dec 2011Yes, but disabled when recording at 720p.You mean when you record video at max resolution 720 p there is no autofocus, but with a lower resolution like VGA there is autofocus ?
                                    That is strange....
