Does ace2 will support apps2sd when updated to jelly bean? It's kind of a deal breaker if it won't, coz from what I read galaxy with os higher than ics does not support apps2sd. Please confirm.

The Ace 2 has just been a new lease of life. Already a good no-frills phone, the upgrade to JB will without doubt strengthen the faith of Samsung clients, sadly which is not the case with a growing number of disenchanted HTC clients who for the lack of support to a lineup of their phones will see it lose clients who'll have no choice but skip to other brands. I'm already thinking of switching over to Samsung.

Samsung spoils the looks of JB with their ugly TouchWiz. XDA does better. :)

Ohh stop complaining! That mobile is soo old and outdated hardware! Atleast you can install cyanogenmod 10.1 rie! Thats more than enough! If you don't like it, buy a new mobile with latest software and hardware! Peace!

Waiting for Mini 2... And yes, it CAN run Jelly Bean, as even the new Samsung low-ends come with it.
