This phone is slow and some time hang even the processor 1.4ghz , with 512MB of ram. I think slow because of the os. hope ics 4.0.4 could fix.
one more thing, it is lack of equalizer customize and no DivX/xvid out of the box.
and touch screen is not excellent.

I usually have a case so this doesn't bother me and I'm used to this since my c7 warms up under the same circumstances.
