Hey, some websites and people saying this phone does have a front camera for video calls but gsmarena specifications saying it doesn't have one. Pls someone tell me does it really have a secondary camera?

      AnonD-21732, 17 Sep 2011does the phone support nfs shift??...i was unable to play i... morenfs shift is not available for this phone officially because of the lower resolution. But you can install the modded one for free and it works like a charm. I am facing only one issue with it that the phone does not recognises it as a game or an app to keep the display on. It keeps on turning off the display as per the time you set for the screen timeout. I have to keep tapping the display to keep it on which applies brakes to the car(Irritating). There might be a fix for it. I am still searching for it. Other HD games like Nova, Asphalt 5 and Hawx works great. Search on google for HD games for 320*480 screens.

I only use the phone playing non-3D game for less 30mins, the same thing happened when I took some pix. Check this:

              Got the phone, had problem with the touch buttons. when you use the phone for playing game or listening to music or taking pictures for half an hour, the touch buttons respond without touching. they will on and off the program you want to open. See this video:

Just click on it to jump to the browser .

The Mini is a 100x better than the W8, and the sound quality in the Mini is better than the W8 (the mini uses the same audio chip as the Xperia Arc, check out the audio quality specs in the GSMArena review, you'll see that the specs of the Mini and the Xperia Arc are almost the same). Also, the Mini sounds almost as good as the N5800 through good sennheiser earphones.

I installed PowerAMP in it and set a customised preset for SuperBass and Treble and it sounds killer. The sound is not louder than nokia xpress music phones in loudspeaker and earphones but the quality can beat most of the nokia or samsung phones of the same range. Hope this helps!!

When I connected my phone to the PC, it said 'An update for your phone is available.' and I updated the phone. Now the battery seems to be lasting for a longer time. Just a bit. I charged my phone in the morning to 100%(at 12pm) and now the battery is at 77% with 2 hrs of music playback and continous messaging and Live wallpaper(the time now is 11pm here. Not used the internet at all. A few phone calls as well for around 15 mins. Its working great. Very fluid and smooth. Installed a few HD games as well. Works awesome without any lags at all. Go ahead and buy it if its under your budget.
