Hello ppl,

its a gud phone I have been using it for a week now. I was initially skeptical about most reviews on S1205 battery performance. Now I must say its pretty impressive. Not that agree with few reviews here but its lasting 3 full days for me. my usage pattern is

> both sims actv 24hrs
> Telephony 100 - 120 min a day
> Gprs/ internet 20 - 30 min a day
> mult med aps 30 min a day
> Nav/ Gps not daily though

I must say this is a best potent WM phone i got in last 7yrs whn it comes to bat power.

Get on for yourself :)

hi buddyz!

I got mine just last weekend. pretty decent phone..not entirely perfect but amazing value for money. navigation software and GPS works amazingly accurate. I got a qtn though...do we need to always use SD card on which maps/ Nav software is provided? can i not copy it to the device memory and install higher cap SD card??

anyone??? thanks in advance :)

This is only dual standby this mean that when you are using one sim the other is off. When you are colled on the second sim (doasn't matter whitch one) the coller will heard that your phone is off. You can only forward the calls from one sim to another. Because of this I don't have the phone anymore. I used also DX900 from Acer, but was the worst phone ever.

I have heard a lot about the S1205 and I intend to get one soonest BUT I need someone to assure and confirm that both SIMs will receive in-coming calls simultaneously while switching may be required to initiate a call from a particular SIM.

Has anyone got an alternative to this but with 3G aprt fromDX 900 that’s too bulky

Im basically looking for a phone that is 3G / Dula SIM / Windows or Android
Not too worried if its not branded just need the features

All 2cents recommendations are appreciated with link if any.

In my opinion you're getting very much for the price of this phone:

- two SIMs handling - OK
- GPS - OK
- Windows/Outlook sync - OK
- Email Client, WIFI - OK
- user interface - OK
- music/mp3/radio - OK
- camera - enough
- compact size of phone

The biggest disadventage is no 3G - but if you use only Email client it's OK

I don't see now other phone with dual SIM (maybe Acer X500, but it's not sold anymore).

Ork, 17 Aug 2010I am having some problems with this phone - wonder if anyone else has had these problems: 1... moreI've had this phone for about a month, and here are my experiences/replies to "Ork":

1. Never had that problem.
2. The battery - I was amased by the long battery life. Until now, I've had to recharge at each 10 days. I use Wifi sometimes, but always turn it off when the work session is over.

Also, I'm my experience this a low/mid-end phone. However, if you need 2 SIMs like me, AND wifi, spype and camera, there are not many alternatives.

1. CPU is slow - yes, by todays standards it is. But it's on par with my previous phone, which was the HTC Diamond.
2. Back button - yes, I miss that to. It would be nice if the "sims settings" button could be changed to that. Maybe it can...(?)
3. SIM2 button is missing on some selections. SIM1 is default, and sometimes one have to go a long way to use SIM2 on a number/contact.
4. Camera - average to low quality, no autofocus. - Agreed. Fairly ok resolution, though, but you get what you pay for...

My 2 cents...
