how do you know the operating system is upgradeable to 4.1?
i have just been on the phone to samsung customer service (call-centre) and was told that SOME phones can upgrade to 4.0 (but not 4.1), depending on the version of your phone and on your network provider. apparently it is not possible to know until you put your SIM into the phone which version you have, and therefore whether you can upgrade. i was planning to buy this phone, but only if i can upgrade, but it appears impossible to know in advance.
has anyone got more information on this?

Mike, 11 Nov 2012Does your phone lag when playing NFS Most Wanted?@Mike Muhaha. I have Ace 2 , but you need 1.9 GB free on memory USB to install it and the phone has only 1.1 . So you can't install it.
The biggest problem is that you can't install apps on microsd.. you can use it only for images, videos . I'm very dissapointed about this.. I can't install games like Max Payne, NFS Most Wanted, Fifa 2012.. And i don't want to install root... Bad Job Samsung for memory. This is a very nice phone on this price, maybe best, but the memory is a problem there.

I love this phone, I do have this since last month and its doing great... It can handle games like Dead Trigger and Need for Speed, and the battery, all I can say... Its long! Haha. And by the way, owners, do you receive an update for Galaxy Ace 2 today? I got mine via OTA and I think the size of update is 16MB. I think this update is to ready the phone for Jelly Bean update coming might at the end of the month or around December. I wish so.

Thank you. :)
I've read that xperia u has a free 50gb of cloud storage from their website but i realized the importance of the card slot category. Waiting for the ace2 to be available in our area (La Union).
Salamat ulit dre. :)

gamer, 11 Nov 2012does the ace2 handle most games? (this include emulation games but exluding HD 3D games)?With its dual core processor and Mali-400 GPU, it can handle most games, even demanding 3D ones, dictated by its NenaMark2 benchmark.

I just want to hear your thoughts regarding my concern. I am a newbie re... moreOkay, thanks for asking! Here are the advantages of both phones against one another:
Xperia U
Advantages:
1. Better screen
2. Better handling capacity
3. ICS upgradeable
4. Cheaper
5. Lighter
Disadvantages:
1. Small battery
2. Little memory (no microSD slot)
Ace 2
Advantages:
1. Bigger screen
2. Bigger battery capacity
Disadvantages:
1. JB update not yet seen (might be cancelled)
2. Smaller screen density
3. Heavier
Conclusion:
In this case, I'd rather choose the Ace 2 for its decent specs, though there are minor drawbacks. If the small battery and the little memory is no problem for you, I'd go for the Xperia U.
P.S. Proud to be a Filipino too! :)

Sir (esp. Denzel),
I just want to hear your thoughts regarding my concern. I am a newbie regarding smartphones. I currently owned a low end smartphone ( galaxy pocket ) and i want to upgrade to a mid range one. As far as my budget is concern, i can only afford and choosing between ACE 2 and XPERIA U because i want a cheap smartphone with a front cam and at least dual core cpu. Kindly enlighten me what to choose because i'm not that too tech savvy guy to know their diff. buy only reading their specs. Basically, their specs are almost similar, they only differ in chipset which i'm not familiar. And also, can you tell me what is their advantage over the other? Thanks for sharing your time.
Hope you can help. :)
