I was shocked because I read some review in google and watched some reviews on youtube, they say that the screen was not that accurate or sensitive. According to them, sometimes the phone does not detect the touch and it feels resistive. CNET UK reviewed this phone and said that tipo is buggy and a laggy phone. I hope that wasn,t true because I look forward on buying this model :( I'm from Philippines.

      I'm from the Philippines. I asked some cellphone stores and they confirmed that it will be available first week of September. The price is disappointing, this is not a budget phone. It will cost you 7300-8000 pesos. But if you're after ICS go ahead buy this.

        Anonymous, 20 Aug 2012@rahul hmm think like mature if tipo will lagy wid ics then... moreThis phone sometimes lags. But not to the point that it is anooying or laggy. Just a little lag that you rarely notice especially when multi-tasking. While for it's processor, 800 mhz somehow became the standard of new budget phones.
        Galaxy Y- 832mhz
        LG L3- 800mhz
        Xperia Tipo- 800mhz

        You can't expect perfect fluid respose from a budget phone. So don't expect it to be lag free. Especially since ICS is heavier then GB. Those who use GB and upgraded to ICS always notice their phone being slower. Since ICS is heavier.

          Anonymous, 23 Aug 2012can this phone really support android 4.0 without problems ... moreI read a review saying that it sometimes lags. Maybe due to low processor. Xperia Mini with 1 Ghz scorpion processor sometimes hangs when you upgrade it to ics. So don't expect a very fluid response from a slower processor.

          But its still pretty fast. Just don't expect it to be always fluid in response. It lags but not always. And another thing, the touch screen in this is not that sensitive.

          There's already a review. Search on google.

            dark01, 24 Aug 2012tipo is much better than galaxy ace outdated!!I think your wrong about that. Galaxy Ace might be outdated but it's still better in terms of performance and specs. Ace has a 5 megapixel cam compared to this with 3.2. Ace also have gorilla glass (if I'm not mistaken) and it has wider screen and it has flash.

            I heard this phone is not that fluid sometimes. Not to wonder. ICS on just 800mhz and it's touch screen is sometimes not detecting light touches).

            There's already a full review on some sites. Check it on google.

                [deleted post]I'm from the Philippines, Galaxy Y cost around 5k here. I think this phone will be around the same price as Galaxy Y and LG L3. I do hope the touch screen is good. I read a review in a different site and they were complaining about the touch screen being resistive some times and not detecting. I do hope it's not true since I'm looking forward in buying this phone.

                  The Xperia Mini is available at 10.5k in India and it has a 1GHz ARM V7 processor and it has received an upgrade to ICS, so if this phone comes in the range of 8-9k then only it will be worth purchasing this phone, else the Xperia Mini will be the best choice.

                              this phone costs Php 7,690. i thought it will be very cheap in Philippines. Now what i guess miro will be 9k above and xperia j for 11k. too expensive. these are not budget friendly.

                                  Why every company has started using this same Processor chip and GPU cortex A5 and adreno 200 but with differnt clock speeds ranging around 600 Mhz, 800 MHZ to 1 Ghz. Samsung in S duos, LG in L3, L5 and L7. HTC in Desire C, V, VT and VC. Sony in Xperia Tipo, Tipo Dual & Miro. Screen sizes varying from 3.2 inch on Xperia Miro to 4.3 inch on LG L7. These processor and GPU are very slow and economicaly configured. These handsets are single or dual sims. Whats really behind using these monotonous configurations which every company is applying in their new handsets??? Anyone knows about this???
