No I think.
And it has also got the ICS update.

haven't heard any but Xperia Minis overheat really bad and this causes the touch buttons to go crazy. they get activated randomly. though this shouldn't happen on LIW

You might want to know that Live with walkman's front camera cannot be used for video calling. Other than that its a great phone.

then what is the use of having a front cam :???:

You might want to glance through some reviews before making the purchase. I remember reading something about random reboots in Live with walkman in a review but I'm not so sure about that.

use skype and other video calling apps to video chat over internet.... native video call support is not present on android....

yes i read this review in flipkart site but i cant believe that . i think that piece has been faulty ,thats my feeling :-?

. anyway thanks buddy .

i know that. he should have been more clear.

When can we expect Galaxy Ace 2 ?

ace 2 is meaningless. instead wait for some proper mobiles from HTC & LG. Sony have already announced one of the coolest and best looking (with best hardware) midrange Android.

Experia sucks as far as battery life goes,+1 for Defy.
