Hi friends,
I am a first time smart phone user. I bought tipo through adexmart. These are my conclusions about tipo:
Pros:
1. Good looks
2. Avg. battery back up. First time i wooried alot about battery since i downloaded about 500+ mb it lasted only for 2 to 2.5 hours. Now i finetuned and its running for more tha a day with noram usage.
3. Low weight
4. Movie video quality is good more than my expectations..
Cons:
1. Some games are getting strucked especially 3D games. So i avoided those games like need for speed etc..
2. Camera is not good. After removing a filmy layer pre-attached to cam screen now i can manage avg.
photos.
3. Ear phone sounds are not awesome its ok..
4. Many applications are running in background like music, google+, facebook, help etc...even if i dont open them. I have to use app. killer for removing these regularly.


On overall its a avg, phone for starters...

          Check review of Galaxy Chat. I'm not a die hard fan or whatsoever but I saw the review. It has higher benchmark compared to tipo and higher processor. It also have no lags like in tipo.
          The only let down is the keyboard. Many people now a days like full touch and don't want hardware keyboard.

          It also have a gpu. But not adreno. But it seems it has a more power full gpu compared to tipo based from the benchmark.

                                      I wonder why Galaxy Mini 2 is more expensive than Tipo (by as much as 25 USD here) when both seem to have identical spec? I'm about to buy my first android, maybe anyone can tell me which one of these two is better? Thanks.

I say it again, ... moreyou are mistaking . nexus one had adreno 200. tipo/explorer has adreno 200 ( enhanced ). 200 enhanced is twice as fast as adreno 200. that is the reason why it can play hd games without much lag. and no still 205 at 800 x 480 is a lot better than 200 enhanced at 320 x 480 .
