I have a corby pro right now and I do understand that texting is easy and fun on physical keyboard.

      Saad, 06 Sep 2011I am really confused between Galaxy Ace and Xperia mini..I ... moreGo for Xperia Mini Pro, expecially u like to sms (with real keyboard is much fun for typing). Galaxy Ace video capture is bad (only qvga @15fps) compare to Mini Pro (HD @30fps).

      Processor on Mini Pro is also better 1GHz vs 800Mhz, even the ram is better 512MB vs 128MB.

      Just compare them at gsmarena and u will find Mini Pro is alot better then Galaxy Ace (accept for the screen .5" diff)

        Saad, 06 Sep 2011I am really confused between Galaxy Ace and Xperia mini..I ... more- Galaxy ace better for messaging only if you need a bigger screen to use the keyboard. Alternatively you can buy the xperia mini pro because it has qwerty keypad.
        - In my opinion SE phones have better music playback than Samsung phones. I think xperia mini music experience about the same like some Nokia xpressmusic.
        - Xperia mini definitely has a better video recording capability than Galaxy Ace.
        - I think both phone is smooth. But if you want to use apps for MS office like documents to go, quick office and so on, galaxy ace will lag while xperia mini smooth. Thanks to the 1ghz processor.
        - So far I played Nova, NFS Shift, Asphalt 6 and other HD games on xperia mini no lag at all.

        Conclusion: I highly recommend you buy xperia mini. You might want to buy xperia mini pro as sometimes I got problems in typing and when playing psx emulator or any other emulator, using physical buttons definitely better.

                            So, the processor of mini & mini pro is the same (like review of gsm arena) MSM8255 or not (like the spec in gsm arena)?
                            The Bravia Engine Make Battery last longer or no?

                                  2.Front cam has nothing to do with ur mobile.
                                  3 you want video chat u can perform it with ur rear cam using SKype, fringe.
                                  4.Camera quality is osm but the compression alogirithm is not that good. SE has promised to have it checked before the next update.
                                  5.HVGA 320*480. screen resolution.
                                  6.The Display occupies the entire mobile. you wont have space to grab the mobile other than the display.
