A few queries:
A) The LWW restarting issue- Has it been fixed by Sony yet ?

B) Also, is the battery life really too poor compared to others in that range (<13k) ?

C) Considering the LWW issues havn't been fixed yet, what would be the next best choice for a 3.2" (minimum) screen and a strict budget of 13k or less ?

P.S. Apologies if a similar thread already exists. I'm browsing frm my old Nokia 2690 (gprs :p) & searching etc. is almost impossible..


>>>Galaxy Ace available @11.4k in themobilestore.
Is it better than, say, Htc Explorer performancewise ? (Again, only in case I don't get LWW, which is my first preference.)

performance is almost same. though Ace has less ram but you can't use 512Mb ram on these lowend mobiles. Also the processor is old so even if its clocked at 800Mhz, it'll be same but you get better camera, bigger screen and Gorilla glass. 11.4k is a bit high considering the processor is really weak and its an EOL (end of life, maybe discontinued) mobile. Check in local shops also. Usually they have lower pricing compared to mobile store.

I think the Auto-Restart issue has been fixed in LWW. My bro bought it 1 month ago. Still now he has not faced any problems.

Ok. I don't really find it appealing either, apart from the bigger screen.
What about LWW ? Do u know if the issue's fixed or not ?
